I told them to run, run, run.
In fact, I mercilessly taunted.
Alas the final result
Was nothing like what I wanted.
I did not fully consider
When all was said and done
The degree of just how slowly
We cookie-men can run.

After the Rave
What is orange
And six feet tall
And smells like it is dead?
This isn’t a joke.
I’m asking you
Because one is in my bed.

The Don’s Last Trust Fall
I’m a confident man
But sometimes I think,
“Maybe I’m wrong.”
“Maybe I’ll sink.”
Then I listen to the river
And I do what I must;
What’s the weight of lead shoes
Next to the strength of our trust?

Aftermath
Today’s November first,
Which is National Candy Day.
You celebrate it by getting sick
And throwing your diet away.
You’ve tasted the rainbow plenty,
And if your pee isn’t purple yet
You can drive down to the grocer
For surplus, cheap as shet.
Today you do not feel guilt.
Just ignore the nausea,
Because capitalism depends on you
And post-costume nostalgia.

The Daily Travesty 
Passing The Bar?
The taps are flowing,
The music blares!
The mistakes pile up
But nobody cares.
New stories are heard
And new memories leave.
Every girl at the bar
Hears “sup girl? I’m Steve.”
Inhibitions
Are out the door.
There’s one good answer
When they ask “one more?”
Bodies shimmy
And booties shake!
Isn’t it joyful
At rationality’s wake?
