Kitties behind bars!
If you want to help me release the kitties, consider becoming a subscriber? Not that I’m blackmailing you! I’m just saying. ($50/yr, $5/mo)
(Honestly, the kitties can get around or through the bars. They are not trapped. except in the house, I guess? they would like to get out of the house. But your subscriptions help me feed them to reconcile them to staying in the house.)
Anyway! This is what I published this week.

Khurbn
“Never again” was overly optimistic
and maybe hubris.More humbly, it should have been,
“This will happen again, butwe will stand to witness it’s wrong.”
We would have been better preparedfor the disappointment, at least,
when we couldn’t even manage that.
You Are Not Ready For The Truth
The true Tao
is the Tao in your ass.
And the Christian faith
is a proctology exam conducted by spasming lobsters.
The Tao of Ow!
The Tao of Ow!But poetry, ah the poetry
flowing forth like a dog vomiting in your nostrils….What will you do, old egg, with the wild farts
hallooing from your keister?
Daydreaming poem. (Five Fleas)
If I won the lottery
I’d just sit here writing poetry,
and, hey, that’s what I’m doing
right now.
Two short pieces. (Five Fleas)
I had writer’s block.
Then I decided
this poem was good enough.
Rebuke to Apolloniare
Maybe your love is a venereal disease,
but the love of a dog is pure.
