    Thirty Nine Words For Toilet

    Porcelain thrones glisten
    Especially now as the Lysol,
    Acidic lemon,
    Dries.
    Thundering away in some old box,
    Not living not empathic,
    Just turning and swirling.
    Some despondent john
    Sits there, sways listlessly and
    Watches the blue go down again.

    The horizon is right and motionless like the EKG of a dying woman.

    Buddy, you think you look strong? You’re wearing a cape.

    Glad you love it--I started writing and the only thing I could think of happened to be a toilet.

    Only in your opinion, Jon. I guess I kinda stole your thunder with my toilet ode, though.

    Unusual Grain
    Ashen and sullen,
    Sandra contemplated her reflection in the water.
    As it danced and swayed,
    She consumed her muffin tops.
    Silently overhead, a jet black
    Raven passed casting shadows of doubt
    And inebriated movement to mice.
    After its sullen passing,
    As sullen as Sandra's state of mind,
    A new sobriety came unto the mice.
    Newly revived and not imbibed,
    The rodents scurried away from Sandra,
    A much larger raven clad not in black,
    But in a fuchsia and burnt umber
    With a trim of gold ochre.
    Much more terrifying.
    Sandra finished her muffin tops and left to go back to work for $17/hour.

    thanks for adding to the poetry... it's been a little poetically quiet around here lately.
