Tourette's Triolet

I must apologize again.
There's really no controlling it.
While some are shocked, others just grin.
Still, I'll apologize again.
It can't be willed, so it's no sin.
fucking-asshole-cocksucker-shit
I must apologize again.
There's really no controlling it.

FIT WIT

Don’t sit.
Get fit.

If not,
You’ll rot.

KING DAVID

King David listened to the Lord
And heard an unheard melody.
He asked him for the hidden chord.
King David listened to the Lord.
The major third was his reward.
Be still and hear the harmony.
King David listened to the Lord
And played a holy melody.

PEARLS BEFORE POETRY

Poetry put a price on my head
And it’s a price that I can’t pay.
Those borrowed lines left me in debt
And now there’s price on my head.
Keats hired a hit man yesterday.
Emily said I’d never be read.
Poetry put a price on my head
And it’s a price that I can’t pay.

THE ART IN BEING IGNORED

There is an art in being ignored.
Within a crowd of friendly strangers,
Never expect to be adored.
There is an art in being ignored:
A glance may be your brief reward;
A longing look has lingering dangers.
There is an art in being ignored
Within a crowd of friendly strangers.
