    Spring's Fragrant Hymen

    O spring's a virgin butterfly who doffs her gay cocoon
    And naked flies on powdered skies that darken must too soon.
    Her fragrant flight desires ignite to light a night's embrace;
    With fluttering heart she love imparts while dawn comes down apace
    And fiery Sol the skies appalls and maidenhoods must sever;
    A woman lies before mine eyes: the girl is gone forever.

    This poem makes less sense than I originally intended it to

    After putting the finishing touches on his time machine Dr. Brainiak decided to do the unit testing that should have occurred earlier but for lack of funding could not be done until now. Yes! Now! That moment in history when he would show how every past is Now and how every future is Now. He took a deep breath and then another and then another and then stopped. He was in the Now of pure, immoral, t = 0 alpha-omega anti-time generated by his machine proving conclusively that there couldn’t be another t.

    He somehow died, they reasoned, because he couldn’t exhale, but how was he able to die being in the Now is still being debated by his colleagues. Hell should last forever. The university did need to get rid of the remains, regardless, which refused to decompose on their own, because he was no longer actively getting rejected for research grants.

    He knew people would become irrational when they found him, but he could not get to t = 1 from t = 0. He could not even get to t = -1 although he tried that too. He couldn’t even unplug the machine because, assuming the machine was working properly, he wasn’t actually in the common delusion of time anymore although the video camera which was not in the Now showed how hard he couldn’t try.

    Presenting your rump to the headlights
    And asserting your right to be on the road.
    Furry, foggy feral.
    Braking hard, we sit and wait,
    Watching your back.
    A marker to other cars.
    Horizontally opposed paws,
    Adapted for grasping
    Clumsy out of place on stony tarmac.
    Your prehistoric brain,
    Eucalyptus fuddled,
    Fails to grasp the doom that dwells on there.
    You gain the verge and we proceed.
    Silently thanking our lucky stars
    No busy, bouncing truck
    Swept down the other side
    And cleaned you up.

    He talks about Euros, dollars, and pence

    Economic theory can be a little dense
    But if you listen to Jens
    He actually makes a lot of sense

    And in these days of uncertainty all men ask whence
    Came Jens?

    Thanks, though encouraging me is always a mistake.

    It's like that with me and you.

    Happy Bagel

    Cream cheese left for good...
    No matter
    As long as the fridge contains
    Butter

    Butter the depressed bagel
    If you want add rasps
    of Provolone
    Or whatever cheese you eat
    with Macaroni

    Toast it upside down
    To your heart´s delight
    Until it becomes
    yellow, golden or brown.

    The assyrian came down like a wolf on the fold
    After having put their iphones on hold
    And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold;
    Although there was some kahki, truth to be told.
    And the sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea,
    And they waved them about not without glee.
    Ah, we write a good poem Byron and me.
    ay up
