the grinning demon
extols the pleasure of sin
while sipping lite beer

hey Dictionary.com!
we’ve seen this before
a teenage couple’s
matutinal grope session
and a machete
he talks a big game
with just a scintilla of
Jedi in his blood
the old archbishop’s
atavistic tendencies
make him speak Latin
his youngest daughter
enervated by tear gas
ate her broccoli
world’s last horse gallops
followed by a cavalcade
of sprinters in spurs
our dear grandmother
seems to be in fine fettle
despite her goiter
I get funny looks
while sitting, masticating
upon your entrails
fire-protection spell
Harry Potter smirks from his
extant book cover
jealous obloquy
it has fallen on deaf ears
I won’t stop dancing
poor choice of shampoo
the scalp’s detritus becomes
the skull’s corona
I’ll hide here for days
my impervious redoubt
keeps out Jehovahs
the heckler’s remarks
may have been malapropos
for the funeral
Panglossian hordes
parade into the market
in search of Slim-Fast
maudlin mechanic
he lost his virginity
under that Buick
your roll of gauze is
the perfect complement to
my massive head wound
civilian Humvees
are surely a shibboleth
of well-endowed men
amanuensis!
come here and take a letter:
“no more green Skittles”
the subject of japes
has mastered Esperanto
and who’s laughing now?
