Staring at a man
a man staring at a book
a book I'm reading.

Vulgar flattery
deep in his sloppy seconds
horned up for struggle.

Paranoid people
exploitive technology
fun new recipes.

Judgmental dead guy
creeping around, mocking you
unwillingly shaved.

Cute little beetle
coincidences abound
puzzle lover's dream.

Love in all flavors
earnest, familial, reckless
bordering on hate.

“The lust of slaughter”
killing anything that moves
the national sport.

What a dreamy guy
kind to beasties, quick to kill
calls you his princess.

Between kitsch and shit
romanticize everything
protuberances.

Can't keep a woman
loves to listen at bathrooms
Harry's a weird guy.

You're her special friend
too kind to dismiss the rest
sure bud, sounds legit.

Tea as religion
influencer of art forms
smug simplicity.

Sweet vindication
well seasoned by suffering
made for bigger things.

Wander through the woods
more exciting than berries
you're red boy's wife now.

He's a big fella
clever and quick to adapt
can't read newspapers.

Miserable bride
no worries, it won't be long
the groom has big plans.

Safe in the machine
snuggled up with ideas
not smelly people.

He's just so Irish
even the locals think so
living and the dead.

Learns people exist
some folks never get that far
it's gruesome out there.

Cartoonish baddies
oh no, they're picking on him
now they have backup.

Walk through the desert
watch the earth rot from above
learn nothing, stay numb.

Masked flowerpiercer
little-devil poison-frog
napo monk saki.

Surprise, you're a bird
weird reward, ace punishment
better than a tree.

Lovingly rendered
endless possibilities
so few realized.

Smug interference
a unique pain in the ass
macho man wants out.
