Morning Sunshine

Woke to the sound of horses
They live on the second floor,
The neighbors across the way are putting in a railroad
Through all this
The dripping of the coffee and the electric toothbrush
The TV chattered< I wanted to take aim See if I could hit my target Blind shots into the floorboards But I don’t eat horsemeat So I sipped some coffee Mint Brushed again I am going diesel powered this year Maybe do a little fracturing in the backyard Starting a garage band And answering every question with a BWAHHHHH! It’s a new year bust out the pots, pans and Mallets. Make it coal Smokey black coal cigarettes Some dope from the dopes And a yapping Pomeranian with a megaphone I want to startle the snow into ice And shatter all dreams of peace Cause logic says Politics are decided down the barrel of a gun BWAHHHHH The milk is curdled Looks like sourdough coffee by the side of the railroad tracks.

  1. I think you really enjoy your neighborhood! My kids have been the horses on the second floor and we call the sourdough coffee “sheepherder coffee”. Happy New Year to you!

  2. I really enjoy this ramble – the metaphors are thick and rich – found myself clattering like sparks off of them into entirely fresh realms. Great rhythms and percuss. Looking forward to spending more time delving your trove
