scent of fresh baked bread
reminds me of Earth
new cook is learning
tastes great but texture makes me
wonder where is the dog

One of my references is the Little Red Hen
Chicken application
Why? 30 words or less.
Hammering nails with my beak.
Free eggs.
Fletching arrows.
All rooster, all the time.
He's everywhere, he's everywhere.
Love peeps.
Want to see what's on the other side.
Oh! Corn!

I sense a bbq in the force
A friable frog from Dijon
quavered “A quick frisson,
“sped through my spine
“I think this coal mine
“'s afire, let us be gone.”

acid-free tongue
Portrait of an artist
Sidewinder Smith
blinked ophidian
nothing else moved
in the center ring
even the aerialists
paused in mid-swoop.
"Draw," he drawled.
Fingers Ablur
did just that,
as if her life depended
from the fine gold chain
(18 carat)
stretched between the
scaly showman's hands.

silly stuff
Still waiting
snow snakes
slither sibilantly
through thin stony slits
scarring silent
sightless soldiers
standing against
enemies long departed

back from my trip
Here are 6 from my trip to a midwestern surprise birthday party. And yay for noob Alex!
under parking lot lights
only the nondriver wakeful
my chair gleams
under black balloons
doorbell rings
snowdrops and daffodils
bloom back home
new nephew laughs
abandoned mall
call you smell what recession's
cooking?
Ozark mountain woods
thrust bare branches skyward
narrow towns sleep
feet up
and keyboard light green

circle of life
Aw nuts
a pecan grew upon a branch
green, plump
pregnant in the sun
it fell, squirrel-gnawed
and bounced on stained cement
to lodge behind a
heavy wheel
robed in black, scythe-armed
flexing with sudden weight
engine catches and the
murdered fruit prays
it will return
a cat.

its the end of the world as we know it
A new threat appeared, but the Drooler upon Worlds failed to cause the desired global panic. Disgust & annoyance, perhaps.

remembery
OK, I will look just one more time
Manila envelope, hall table
I just looked inside
but now remember only
that the contents were familiar
diagnosis of Alzheimer's?
hypnotic phrase that cannot
be remembered?
I won't look again
I am easily hypnotized
I don't remember why
I was going down the hall.

Minireview of "The Simian Transcript"
Marge Simon says about _The Simian Transcript_ "Enjoying it immensely, David! I was trying to think what it is you've hit on, for this type of "thing". Sort of a mix of Shel Silverstein, Charles Simic, Ogden Nash, Winnie-the-Pooh on valium, and Mel Brooks? Some of these actually work as flash fiction and others are just crazy fun. I think one or two are even sad. It's your own voice. Never read a collection anything like it."
