Sneak Peak

Check out a few poems from The Sweet Nothings!

seven of my faves from nyr's

    Read a few poems

    Goofy Tooth

    Get Me Off This Picture

    Get Me Off This Picture

      

    If you got a goofy tooth

    Longer than a finger

    And it precludes you from eating cobbed corn

    Or being a famous singer

    Don't let anyone disparage 

    You or your goofy tooth

    You still have things to offer

    That's the honest truth

    Maybe you can help them

    Open up a can

    And maybe you can use your tooth 

    To scare away a mean old man

    I hope you keep your tooth

    Until you’re very old

    You can hand it down to your kids

    If you get it coated in gold!

    Get Me Off This Picture

    Get Me Off This Picture

    Get Me Off This Picture

      

    A trisket a trasket 

    Put the lotion in the basket

    I went to town to call my love

    But the phone line was down

    So I left town and headed on around

    To the next town where the water was brown

    And I drank some of that water and got pink eye

    And pink throat and pink everything

    and the saw bones said he'd have to take my leg

    And I bit down on a spoon

    While some poor man's Billy Joel 

    Played a tired tune at the local saloon

    Then we buried my leg in a sand dune

    And saved the rest of me for boot hill

    And now instead of running anywhere

    I just stand still 

    Anger

    Get Me Off This Picture

    Guilty Pleasures Should Make You Feel Some Guilt

      

    Of all the demons I could have asked for

    You're the hardest to keep in check

    Symbiotic now

    To kill you is to kill me

    So much of my anatomy 

    Overgrown with your thorns

    But I think I've found an antidote

    I may not be able to kill you

    But I can keep you at bay

    I can play my demons against each other

    The politician’s way

    Teaching old me new tricks

    The taste of blood fades

    With fewer wounds to lick 

    Guilty Pleasures Should Make You Feel Some Guilt

    Guilty Pleasures Should Make You Feel Some Guilt

    Guilty Pleasures Should Make You Feel Some Guilt

      

    Give it a kick

    Give it a toss

    Give it a squeeze

    Show it who's boss

    Give it a rub out 

    Give it a blow 

    Give it a tug

    Tell it no

    Put up a struggle

    Put up a row

    Put up a poster

    So everyone will go 

    Bottom

    Guilty Pleasures Should Make You Feel Some Guilt

    Never Ending Feedback Loop

      

    If you show up in joots and jorts 

    I will serve you finest tort

    If you run by in matching track suit

    I will serve you marrow and suet

    If you sport a cap while making haste

    I will serve you turkey's baste

    If you make haste while sporting cap

    I will serve you milk from tap

    If you beat tracks whilst donning jeans

    I will serve you richest creams

    If you come hither wearing Spanx

    I will serve you roasted shanks

    If you arrive in sportsman's coat

    I will serve you banana float

    Never Ending Feedback Loop

    Guilty Pleasures Should Make You Feel Some Guilt

    Never Ending Feedback Loop

      

    Fairest maiden wouldst thou go

    Aboard the ship then down below

    A secret tryst, remove thy clothes

    Unleash your woman as manhood grows


    Bend thy spine to see the port 

    Alas you are a savory tort!

    With wit and wile to match your rear

    Such kiss and touch and nibbled ear


    So sit you coyly on that bench

    And meet my kiss, you fearless wench

    And whence this poem has reached the end

    I implore you, start again!
