Poems

  • Spray

    she sprays stars
    to guide ships by
    summer nights

  • Hometown Boy

    Trump got booed in New York.
    The hometown boy got disgraced.
    Trump got booed in New York—
    that downtown boy got disgraced.
    They love subway rats
    more than you there, Donny.
    They love sewer gators
    more than you there, Donny.
    Trump got booed in New York;
    Jamaica, Queens boy disgraced.

  • Nap

    her old knight
    napping through the game
    eludes summer dark

    What are the most important things needed to live a good life?

  • Smell

    cut grass
    just after dawn
    summer smells

  • Pepper

    We sang, “I’m a
    Pepper,” through rain during
    tornado warnings.

    If you had to change your name, what would your new name be?

  • Pests

    giggling pests
    in the backseat
    traffic out front

  • Peas

    sweet peas
    on my mom’s garden fence—
    picking off slugs

  • Hey There, Jim (a response to a YouTube video)

    Okay, since you asked, let’s talk money facts.
    Since Trump took office, home foreclosure rates
    went up eighteen percent. Trump’s favorite stat,
    personal bankruptcy rates, just went up
    eleven percent. And the new home sales
    and job growth rates are practically stagnant.

    It’s that demon ol’ MAGA won’t admit.

    So we gotta talk about stagflation—
    what Donny learned from Jimmy Carter stuck
    because of Trump‘s avoidable mistakes.

    Things are getting worse. Gas prices went up
    forty-two percent since the president
    attacked Iran. Diesel prices went up
    forty-five percent since the president attacked Iran. The fertilizer price
    went up thirty to seventy percent
    depending on the item since ol’ Trump
    attacked Iran. Raw plastics jetted up
    forty percent since Trump attacked Iran.

    I don’t know why, but politicians think
    war helps us escape economic woes.
    It’s stupid. We should’ve learned but didn’t.

    It’s that demon ol’ MAGA won’t admit.

    So we gotta talk about stagflation—
    what Donny learned from Jimmy Carter stuck
    because of Trump‘s avoidable mistakes.

    So yeah, all the pandemic years were bad
    under dumpster Trump and ol’ sleepy Joe,
    but now the situation’s grown way worse
    with Trump sleeping with his hand on the stick
    as if he’s doing it all on purpose because no one is this kind of stupid.

  • Losing

    Donny is losing,
    because he defrauds the court.
    Reporters confuse ‘im.

    Donny is losing—
    with Americans he falls short.
    Legislatures refuse ‘im.

    Donny is losing,
    because he defies the court.

  • Pools And

    Seagol’s Waterfall
    in K’s Trial lives not
    just Denial of Death.

    List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?
