  • 20070703-More Spooks

    Red Van:
    A dirty red van almost hit us.
    Lost behind a big rig? I guess!
    Pulled out upon our progress
    Stopped to our right before a mess
    All three of us were under stress,

    Followed us one-quarter mile, yes
    Slow down to see license plate press
    Shall I follow him to impress?
    Hawaiian islands sticker plus
    American flag sticker dress
    His exit left, us right digress

    Big Rig:
    A big rig truck pulls out like bus
    Near Chevron gas station profess
    Slows us down in tight fisted cuss

    Utility Truck:
    Another right – a red cone puss
    Behind left rear taillight by wus
    PG&E blue truck transgress

    Parked Vehicle:
    Another rumbling engine plus
    Around dinner times exit thus
    Sounds like a Mustang nonetheless

    Four more ‘neighborly’ occurrences today around 01:45PM to 01:55PM.

    Author’s note: Our Mercedes-Benz E430 has that standard GPS system installed. That should tell them where we are located each time we use that particular vehicle.

  • 20070629-Clamour Time

    Where is my plastic hammer?
    Soft potato heads rammer

    Marriage without love’s Amor?
    Truth by breaking heart slammer.

    Image source: Photo # dscf3544 taken by 'sensei5555'.
    A photo showing a full moon over a seascape of Isle of Palms, South Carolina.

    Smiles always unending.
    I remember me too.
    Under the blue moon view.

    A sleepy poem about pictures of full-moons and of six-lined stanza in six syllables and three monorhyme.

  • 20070628-Watchers Everywhere

    Yesterday gray car
    Tall, slender yummy guy par
    Gorgeous brunette star

    Same corner, white van
    A city abatement scan
    Hidden by the clan

    Harley cycle loud
    Noise pollution – fat man proud
    Old neighborly crowd

    Circles round again
    Four corners, rubber marks bane
    Territory vain

    People walking dogs
    Sweats, jeans, T-shirts — walking togs
    Babies strolled by hogs

    A truck watcher — red
    Twice  eleven P.M. fled
    South – full speed ahead

    Six haiku poems describing strange activities in my neighborhood.

  • 20070628-Reigning Daze

    Shaving hairy monkeyshines
    Creep out the crawling vines
    Run! Swine of no spines
    Roots in the brine
    Intertwine?
    Red wine
    Nein!

    ‘Abomination’ you say?
    Tolerance and the gray
    Green ones out to play
    Looking for prey
    Homeless stray
    No way!
    Pay.

    Burning Bush of worldwide crime
    Pruning off any climb
    Clearing dirt and grime
    And snaky slime
    Icy mime
    Sublime
    Prime

    Three giant poems with descending syllables in monorhyme.

  • 20070626-Work Unfinished

    Looking for unethical ways?
    Truthful tell by working hard plays
    Noisy words of ‘do or dare’ maze

    Scrying well like crystal ball gaze
    Angled swords of biblical blaze
    Tasty roar of lioness glaze

    Two ‘lip-smacking’ poems of three-lined stanzas with eight syllables in monorhyme.

  • 20070624-Largest Organ

    My bended fingers:
    From working so hard
    Un-straightened digits
    With some painful gout.

    My knobby knuckles:
    Staring like eyeballs
    By welcoming palm
    A fist to close its anger.

    My dry cuticles:
    Ragged with hangnails
    White canopy smile
    Dimples of snowflakes.

    My square, pointed nails:
    Trimmed closed to design
    Dark vertical lines
    Ridges as polish.

    My ten digit toes:
    Both index hammered —
    Right one towards top
    Left one to middle.

    Big toes — side bunions.
    Pinky callus and
    Under middle right.
    Heels of white train tracks.

    Head dander and flakes.
    Dry skin and acne.
    Elbows and knees joint
    Cracks like the dessert.

    Seven genetic poems of four-lined stanzas ‘describing skin conditions’ in free-verse.

    Little powder puff
    Drifting in my line of vision
    You’re my fairy seed.

    A miniscule sample of haiku poetry.

  • 20070622-Balik Harap

    Bu-ti-na sa i-yon la-hat
    Ka-to-to-ha-nan i-su-lat
    Mag-pag-ala-man sa ba-wat
    Isa — a-ko Mag-ta-pat

    Literal translation:
    20070622-Return Face
    Good for you all
    Truthful writing
    To learn by each
    One – me to tell

    First attempt at dalit – a Filipino poetry of four-lined stanza with eight syllables in monorhyme.

    Author’s note: Based on a Filipino idiom — balik-harap – a double-faced person who looks good at face value but unfaithful behind back. Used spelling convention of the Japanese language due to not knowing how well to spell words in the Filipino language.
