Elseware

I'm dull and lazy
Today is sunny and bright
Can't blame the weather.

I could just lay here
My back end is very sore
I'll blame it on that

I bet I should stretch
Bucking horse can stove you up
Dull. I'll just lay here

I should climb back on
One part pride and one part scared
To go out again

And in the pasture
The golden horse stands quiet
Waiting there for me

Elseware

Should tell you he's called
"Flash Golden". Perfectly fits
Breathtaking beauty

I'm getting back on
A tree falls? An anomaly
Must do what I fear

Carpathia

Hogs on high horses
Harley mens' hard-on
hot chrome and rubber.

Carpathia

Clip clop tip top tap;
Dipping a mind in these sounds
Astaire meditates.

afternoon thunder
showers spray the green garden
such beautiful weeds

pharmaceuticals
are mostly just placebos
but some can save you

if they don't kill you
first or give you side effects
worse than the ailment

i'm always wary
when the doc asks three questions
and gets out the pad

zerothehero

take this and take that
you might grow boobs or leak but
that's part of the fun

urine sample blood
work where's it hurt turn and cough
bend over take that

how's your sex life how's
your pee flow more orgasms
if you can manage

wake with a boner
then you're alright hey doc that's
not why i'm here yo

listen now will ya
i'm getting older but not
as old as i look

my hair fell out and
my beard is gray and i'm not
the man i once was

slam my boobs in the
refrigerator door why
don't ya just for fun

i said hoarse not horse
my throat is hoarse you're an ear
nose throat guy they claim

Carpathia

Redressing haiku
Harley men are not hogs if
past is not present.

Carpathia

Kentucky Derby
Always bet on the grey horse,
beauty takes it all.

Carpathia

Behind blue sky, black.
Behind your closed lips, new breath.
Living in the now.

about the four noble truths
and breathes her new life

food companies kill
more people than tobacco
companies you know

zerothehero

we make our choices
but the hard drugs are at the
checkstands everywhere

addicts can't resist
it's not easy anyway
and we're all addicts

i was raised to get
metabolic syndrome but
i'm changing my ways

sweets carbs alcohol
it's all about the sugar
and it will kill you

they don't like to talk
about it at aa cuz
they like their donuts

one addiction at
at time one day at a time
one life at a time

you can pry my damn
chocolate from my cold dead
hands you know it all

Gilmer

I do like my sweets
Even though they make me fat
Plus they make me sick.

Elseware

I want trim and tight
My vanity paid the price
Of sugar and drugs

Elseware

I hate getting old
Skin is smooth, my joints are not
Hear well but can't see

The rest will go soon
This is as good as it gets
My soul remembers

But I grieve that girl
Did not appreciate her
Think tenderly now

Gilmer

It is such a shock
It happened so suddenly
In my mid-fifties!

Gilmer

I am still a babe--
Too bad I don't look like one!
Guess what's done is done!
