Going to bed with beautiful worms

A Newfoundland Prince wants to share his fortune with you

how to choose the best mudicare plan

make a fortune with rhymed pentitentaries

Don’t pay for prescription niagara

use non prescription allatyme

Virginia is for shooters

For those who love shooting

For those who love killing

For gun love

not human love

____________________________

2) Virginia is for killers

Death is a transition

unlike trans

you can’t detransition

no vampires

no ghouls or ghosts

no living

dead no more

dead no more

__________________________

This country

is for dying

until we find life

more important than money

more important than pride

more important than hate

until that time

which may be never

Virginia is for

killers

Last Pot

Last Garden

Last Time

Till next spring

Till next time

Till Next Life

Lying flat in bed

fearing the Wednesday

catherization

I should never never never

have a procedure I can’t pronounce

__________________________________________

It’s Sunday Night and

I left the Eagles playing

tried to sleep after my praying

whatever words I was saying

__________________________________

Lying flat in bed

Praying not to wake up dead

after the procedure on Wed

all these roads in my head

___________________________

In a while we’ll find the way

go on our circular ways

continue to write and rhyme

and challenge the times

---

The number you are calling

when I prayed throughout the night

is no longer accepting calls

and could not find sleep

_____________________________

Please check the celestial directory

wondering who else to pray to

maybe from a differect phone

could not would not turn off my head

____________________________

you expect too much

from a sometimes God

who’s busy someplace else

playing each scenario in my head

Yet another night before

one test then another

Is this losing life by degrees

_______________________________

Is this losing life by degrees

In patient Out patient Im patient

I will not be an invalid

____________________________

I will not be in valid

remembering what I used to me

watching memories of me

Do not want to think

about the next day next play

what words I won’t write

_________________________________

Not to think tonight

There are words never to write

words never to take flight

________________________________-

Not think last words tonight

Last voice last sound last heard

Last mouse fails to see last bird-

Anything is possible

after the test

one of those

General Hospital moments

with the Doctor saying

—————————————-

with the Doctor saying

you know that novel

sitting around

half-finished on your laptop

finish the damn thing!

RS 10-11-22

Note; no call at 7 after the test so

no news is good news

Who am I? Why am I here?

Admiral James Stockdale

1992 Vice Presidential Debate

———————————————

My name is Bob Small

and I am bearing witness

for Julian

who cannot be here

whose press is no longer free

———————————

To DC from Swarthmore

where our words are also

carefully measured

Loose lips sink ships

and hopes and dreams

———————————-

I am one of a hundred

maybe less maybe more

we cannot surround the DOJ

but they can no longer

surround us

———————————————–

We cannot surround the

Department of Justice/Injustice

But they will know we are here

even if not told

by the legacy media

—————————————–

But they will know we were here

even if not told

by the Legacy media

who could not find the DOJ

DC is so tricky!

—————————————

I wanted to say this

in some kind of form Poetics

rhyme meter couplets

triplets, pantoum-

maybe later

———————————-

Maybe later when the

passionhascalmed!

Like weeks

after the

first draft
