dogs singing at night

one starts then others join in

the cats just ignore

no war in Laos

the politicians promised

lying through their teeth

we celebrate some

very strange things in small towns

fundraisers needed

the astronomers

predicted a night of nights

it's cloudy again

King of the World sits

in his little red wagon

hugging our dog

called the program host

I wish you were dead she said

I wept for Jesus

looking thru my books

must decide what has to go

who is to get what

realtor promised

to give us the world til bought

then she gave us dirt

the opossum sulks

before the automobile

splat he's now roadkill

we watch the tourists

come to South Broadway nightly

seek music or sex
