You agree the earthworms don’t know you exist?
Well, you’ve got to get out and make an effort.
Helpless
You are an athlete .
And I can’t even stand !
Burnt
I burnt down a swimming pool.
My next trick: an iceberg!
Held Back
When we talked we both could tell we liked each other. The only thing that stopped us was ourselves.
Not Writing
The desk chair is once again empty. The pages are still blank.
Chicken
After the chicken exploded, dad said, you kids get in the car.
Disneyland is weird.
Great
Man it so could have been great.
Woman it so could have been great.
Fret
I swear it is the last time.
Don’t fret, my little ochre space-dog.
Tree
I asked a tree.
Yes, it does make a sound.
Vampires
You’ve seen vampires.
They look into your eyes and say they love you.
Coffin
The dead man stared at the coffin lid.
I’ll take it, he said.
Lie
Maybe every lie is a year of punishment in the afterlife.
You have six so far.
Peas
The peas cried.
And so did I.
Behind
You left me behind.
Without a bum my pants will fall down.
Noun
My noun went pro.
I still have my amateur status.
The deal
Socks for sandwiches.
Trade in your old socks now.
Demands
Hear the chant of thousands.
Listen to their demands.
Pony
Glass is melted sand.
A pony is a unicorn that has lost its horn.
Books
Sometimes I think about all the books I’ll never write.
Most of them are about you.
Cat burglar
Embrace the random moment that is climbing in your window.
C’mon – have sex with the cat-burglar.
