Sky
Wakes
Me
Up
And
I
Make
Some
Coffee.

MEDICAL REPORT


After I read the doctor’s
E-mail

I was tempted to spout like

A whale.

Here’s what I said to myself:

“I’ve got to start

Walking

And stop all the

Talking.”

“If I’m going to win this battle of

The bulge

I’ve got to start counting just how much I

Indulge.”

“To eschew my dark fate

I’ve got to lose some weight.”

Here’s what the doctor said:

"Your diabetes is

Showing good improvement
But lipids are

Quite abnormal.”

ALIMENTARY QUESTIONS


How do you spell relief
After you’ve eaten beef?
Does an apple a day
(Really)
Keep the doctor away?
Do you
(Really)
Need to
Drink eight
Glasses
Of
Water
Each day?
[Don’t our
Bodies have
Enough water
Already?]
Is olive oil
Or
Organic soil
Better for us
Than the other stuff?
Would you rather have…
A Big-Mac attack
Or a Heart attack?

THE SEAHORSE





Seahorses

Don’t have

Stomachs or teeth

But

Gallop about

And

Suck food

Up their snout.

This hippocampus

Has

A unique corpus

Whose

Equine shape

Is

Hard to ape.

The seahorse male

Is the only fish

To become gravid

Instead of the female.

Before seahorses have sex

They hold each other’s tails

And caress in a vortex.

The male seahorse’s pouch then becomes a plump incubator

For eggs deposited by the female’s ovipositor.

THE PLEASURE PRINCIPLE









The Mosquito
Is the libido
Of a mosquito
As small as her drill
With which she takes swill?


The Buffalo
Is the libido
Of a buffalo
As large as the bump
That’s above his rump?

THE SWEET SMELL OF WOOD

As I stared down at corn flakes that filled my round
Bowl

I did not know how to remove the

Deep and sharp wood that festered within my
Soul.

An angel outside was playing a sweet harp.

This happened many years ago

But it seems but a day or so.

Now it is time for that long and deep sleep

Away from this life that we want to keep.

Eat that

Final pie

And tell

All Goodbye!
