is that duck swimming in the pool?

dive at your peril
escape seventy degree
Hawaii five O

toes feeling like ice
Canadians swimming
tropical twenty winds

chilling bad to bone
jumping flash handstand “too cold”
wet heart felt shrieking

had to get close
husband and wife visor
Furman University

cannot believe eyes
even her ninety year old
mother had gone there

one never sees this
dave barry being last guy
purple comedy

blond actress SNL
Brooke Shields was said to have
thought about going

uncamouflaged bright
green lizard red opening
black pool rail cheez it

The Only Thing For
Vegetarian French Fry Restaurant
is open

Uno counting cards
wishing it was pizza
eggplant stacked pizza

sorry Pondering Mind
meant mozzarella parmesan
wrong olive

Bitter Ben doesn’t care
for sun dried tomatoes
likes pepperoni

now for the landing
stop talking to me there’s
a mallard in the pool

swimming sideways lap
“oh he does that every day
around this same time”

hurriedly takes off
over dune straight for the sea
was that my pierre

bird or superman
kissing hand that feeds him
no itinerary

and now pitch dark
12:10 am a cannon blasts
over and over

six very loud bangs
I don’t ever want to know
if that was gun fire

first year in d.c.

told him he wasn’t
gary condit and i wasn’t
chandra levy

this was the same year . no one knew what had happened to chandra & they were blaming condit. there was a story about some guy running around attacking women jogging in rock creek parkway, while listening to music. that’s what chandra was doing. but our stupid laws let murderers run around too long.. the newspaper said this guy attacked two women but he didn’t kill them.apparently, that means you have to do the exact same thing every single time or you aren’t a suspect. i knew it was him from the beginning. it wasn’t that hard to figure out.it took years….

boyfriend from ” two jews and a cowboy cafe ” , said one day , he was signing fake names , when he came to visit me & my answer was apparently a haiku & we laughed , but it wasn’t funny. when he said that i thought , at least there are cameras everywhere in this building. my cab driver / policeman had a talk with him, the first day, but i was from s.c. & he was from boston & all i could think of was gary condit , when he said that.i didn’t want to be paranoid. no one had mentioned the murdering criminal in the park yet. maybe he thought his real name was too famous.

don’t believe the hype

people would rather
believe lies than honesty
pyramid schemes

Sociopaths run the world
and they always will
unless we stop them

looking for targets
tv was part of his name
dog in airline seat

saying don’t watch tv
one thousand people like
i say watch tv

he followed me
no reason to follow me
not liking anything

really the first clue
why would you go to tv
follow everyone

my name is errin
spelling that means i watch tv
you silly bloak

shall i change my name
motivate me to give you
money and power

i will give you pech
another joke of father
yiddish for nothing

i could be wrong
motivation money success
but i don’t think so

have you ever heard
any good coming from the word
motivation

hitler david koresh
waco mark sanford
governor of S C

president bush caused
everyone i knew to lose
half of their money

including myself
i was there and i watched
losing a lot more

listening lobbyist
attorneys writing speeches
in jacuzzi

know nothing politics
watching guy on tv
like sociopath

before elected
i turned out to be correct
seldom occurring

he didn’t lose sleep
beheading of daniel pearl
anything after

slouching on podium
we don’t negotiate
relaxed cucumber

i’m still horrified
pain and fear of blades closing in
heartless leader

the word beheading
gives me chills and hurts my heart
obsessive nightmare

you didn’t even try
to save that poor man
much less rest of country

“hellou hellew”

seven am heilou
fourth day four hour cat nap
it’s avon calling

are you kidding me
avon calling myrtle beach
vacation condos

where’s security
no girl scout cookies but this
my tranquil birthday

no one lets me sleep
repeating hellou hellew
it’s avon calling

i open my eyes
to find edward scissorhands
i was not amused

although i did laugh
because it had seemed so real
awake pudding proof

will i ever learn
keep channel on tv land
quiet mayberry
