Mr. Baby off to spend the night with his best friend, Tina and I dipped into a nearby bookstore / coffee shop for some more collaborative napkin poems. Patina poems (paschal + tina = patina).
[crimson neverlands] (an acrostic)
Never one to
Opt out of
Ogre's stares &
Knight-witted
Salsas,
Alizarin crimson
Neverlands
Dare to dream out
Crusted staleness
Raining the old for the new
An invitation
Not yet circulated - where
Night's savvy
Intuition darkens
Every pore into
Silence.
[chemical zest]
cryptic easy
the pairs will pare
souls like green apples -
drops of lemon
so you won't change color
in the fais do do
of chemical brewing
let it drape over
your tongue
a zest worth
living
& dying
for, cousin to your
favorite beasts,
lucid dreamers all,
we bid adieu -
[practical magic]
post-consumer fiber sleeve
whatcha got up yours?
candelabras and circus tigers
and room to rumba...
do you wanna be startin' sumthin'?
choose your paradise
sister emily stalking hardy or
just paschal and tina -
we come from
olive country &
mesquite,
farm-grown and poetry fed...
we proudly brew
alpha males
engineering & technology
tome-r services in the nooks
& crannies, alpha she be,
says not a word,
taking in the fullness -
watching it fill up,
spill over -
& cover her toes.
[the mural's in pursuit]
(this one by paschal)
emily, why the green-eyed
stare, thomas what's your hurry,
g.b. the twain of you shall not meet,
zora's chocolate pursuit
of langston's flurry, tagore you're it,
pablo's still wondering why & where,
franz his smoky dracula, isaac b. knows
a golem when he sees one, tommy s. e.
with his leather slam book, banker boy,
steinbeck's canneries hungry for billy's
boozy bear, while it's all a whispering
gossipy conversation in
the lemony lair
of parker's ear.
[just arrived]
(this one by tina)
treat yourself
a pick me up
the invisible man
a beloved take-home blend
proudly Guatemalan
on-the-go
gift of every accessory
sealed with a kiss.
[the personal flower]
neck stiff, yet
heat of sun
strokes, calls out
the tightness
highbrow
tomato soupy, destiny's flower
open belly buttons
hungry for more
kazzlefram
the personal story
what every gesundheit should know
say it with a song, ernest:
long and slow, puzzle devotionals
let the sun shine in
after your favorite dish.
[groovy times, loony tunes]
(by paschal)
stationary every day
black belt puzzler
chromeo and juliet
naughty and nicely elbowed
off the playing field
Virg and his Italian buddy boy
in the slime
mitigating the butter climes
accentuating the downward bulges
online ashcans gathering
nomenclature of the paltry
greeting card poverty
tinseltown canneries in tune
karaoke at its best
lip-synching chopra
caterwauling narwhals
postulants need not apply
the billboards bill their glory
festooning the bohemian souls
with the requisite anti-sensical gravy.
