A lightning fast machine
purchased three days ago
now comfortably nestling with
said technological wonder,
where outside a cold wind howls
measuring windchill factor of five below
allowing, enabling and providing me
an opportunity to create virtual reality
issuing veritable deathblow
to any brave soul daring to weather
the onset of cold air masses
associated with atmospheric winds
nsync with planetary earthflow
spinning on axis
roughly 1,000 miles per hour
and whipping approximately
67,000 miles per hour
around nearest star.

I relish (cuz hunger
equals the best pickle) surfing the Internet
with nary a hitch,
nor experiencing that odious
spinning pinwheel/beach ball.

after plunking down
five hundred and eighty dollars,
yours truly exalts after waking second
perusing favorite (poetry) websites
jumpstarting/kickstarting, googling...
byte size tidbits to incorporate
within latest literary endeavor.
So much for initial
starry eyed burst
regarding what promises
to materialize into
a rambling, dodging, and affording
reasonable rhyme,
nevertheless afflicted with...
mine winkin and blinkin
mind nod yet awake,
nor insights keen,
asper ho hum

writer's block as usual,
this (day-glo bull leave
me you) mid morning,
(November nineteenth
two thousand and twenty two),
mine myopic brown
marbled occipital orbs
fixate upon eye opening/closing
lone blinking cursor -
hooping such intense stare
will magically glean
a divine comedy,
or even mediocre
shaky spear writ tragedy, none
the less letting thoughts
glom (cess) pool like
into some elusive essence,
finding me madly chasing
(feebly, lamely, and ridiculously
likened to a teen
age paramour) intriguing,
nattering, and wordlessly
spellbinding notion
all the way to Abilene,
perhaps metamorphosing
into a topnotch
poem (ska lean),
swiftly tailored harried
style even out rivaling

me some crisp

forever hay day
with tangerine trees,
and marmalade skies
completing tennis
