"The Parking Authority Towed My Car
That's Bullshit!
They Didn't Give Me 7 Days Notice!"

From The Mind Of Ricky Sr.

"Now I Don't Claim To Be A Computer Expert
So I Touched A Couple Of Things
And Deleted Everything on The Computer
What's That All About?"

A Plastic Igloo Doghouse

The Piercing Sound
Of An Alaskan Malamutes Plaintiff Wail
Fills the Calm Morning Air
Perhaps he's Sad
Because He Doesn't Have A Job
He's Been Looking for Awhile
But Nothing Yet
The Wails Continue
I Go Over to See
Right On!
He's Got a Brand New
Plastic Igloo Doghouse
That He's Lying Beside
I Look Closer
And I Understand
Why He's Wailing
The Brand New Plastic Igloo Doghouse
Is to Small
For an Unemployed Alaskan Malamute!

Fettuccine with Smoked Manitoba Whitefish Sauce

From The Annals of Ester

When Ester was Young
Her Mother couldn't
Afford to buy Milk
So she gave Ester
Black Tea Instead
This caused Ester to Cry and Cry
Because
Ester wouldn't Drink
Anything that was Blacker than Her


A True Story as Told to Me by Ester

Wooden Tulips

Every Year
About this Time
They begin to Appear
Brightly Colored
Wooden Tulips
Flowers for
The Gardening Impaired

The Mop

The Mop
Lays discarded by the Roadside
Remembering its youth
How dirty floors were cleansed
And Faces Gleamed
From the Reflections
Off the Shiny Floor
All now
Just Memories
