"bingo" poems
Itinaga ko sa bato, Sinigaw ko sa harapan ng malalakas na alon Ang pangako hindi na ako iibig muli. Isa, dalawa, tatlo. Tatlo beses ako niloko. Tatlo beses ako iniwan. Para isang laro, Naka-bingo na ako. Dumaan ang mga araw, Lumipas ang buwan, Nagsimula ang bagong taon, Ngunit ang pangako sa nakaraan Aking dinala. Isa, dalawa, tatlo. Hindi na ako muling iibig pa. Pinagdamutan ko ang sarili ko Magmahal ng iba. Kaya ko magisa. Mga katagang lagi kong binubulong sa sarili ko. Papatak man ang mga luha ko, Pero hindi na muli madudurog ang puso ko. Isa, dalawa, tatlo. Nahipan ng hangin ang pangako ko. Isang araw nagising na lang ako, Inaantay ko ang mga mensahe mo. Ikaw ang una naiisip sa umaga, Kausap sa magdamag, Panaginip sa gabi. Sa mga araw na mapait, Ikaw ang nagpapangiti. Sa mga araw na magulo ang mundo ko, Ikaw ang nagliligtas nito. Isa, dalawa, tatlo. Ayaw ko mahulog sa iyo. Takot akong madurog ang puso kong Pinilit kong binuo. Ngunit paano, Kung ikaw lang ang nais sa piling ko. Kaya ngayon itong nararamdaman ko'y itatago muna sa iyo. Isa, dalawa, tatlo. Tatlo hakbang palayo sa iyo. Dalawa tayo sa istorya na ito. Isa lang ako na may paghanga sayo.

Isa, dalawa, tatlo
Her platinum blonde hair was a firm      spunky Irish when she was a kid And compelled me to wish for time travel      as I have loved her since she's existed She says she'll table dance if she wins All for a package of crackers I'd have     never kicked her out of bed for eating Says if I'm lucky she'll pick Mardi Gras beads I told her that from her wedding picture      Veronica Lake had nothing on her She said straight into my transparent heart:      "I've had a good life" . . .and I was lucky

Joanne @ BINGO
You're the wind the blows the treetops It rustles through my hair The hand that touches my shoulder Quietly, you are there. You're the story left unfinished A poem left untouched For 20 years you fought alone 20 years escaped Death's clutch. For 14 years you held me Through plays and concerts all You filled up puzzles and read the books Alone, you stood so tall. You told me all the stories Answered that question many times Why I never did see Grampa, Why I never saw you cry. You showed me all the pictures Played Santa on Christmas morn' We made fruit salad on holidays You've loved me since I was born. Not once did I say goodbye to you See you later, kiss goodnight I'd see you in the morning Bananas and donuts under the counter light. You were a genius in your own way But never flaunted it so You taught me games I'd not thought of You loved me more than you could show. We offered you a guard dog A cat to spend your days You never were an animal person Dependence is not your ways. You got home from bingo one night Laid down to rest your head Your sister woke to call you Somehow, you weren't out of bed. From then on you hid your voice from us Never to be heard again Tests and cards and flowers, too Not one, not two- more than ten! Leading up to then, you'd had enough Enough for a lifetime, I suppose, Because one night you took your final breath Your cheeks lost the color of rose. I've never been the hugging type, And I handle sadness on my own Crying in front of others Is something I've never been shown. The next week had been quite tough But your sister was always there Your sister, my Nana, the only one She told us she would always care. We said goodbye, a final one, I tried my hardest not to cry I'd only said goodnight my life Not once have I said goodbye. Sometimes I wish we got you the dog Maybe we'd share another morn' I love you for the rest of my life, The one I miss and adore. It was the night you'd not return None of us know why But now we know you're happy Playing bingo with Grampa in the sky.

I was called a Troll today.
Her shoulder rose like the moon above the black velvet of bolero jacket She took his arm, his eyes-- An apogee She took the room in reverence So slowly shed the mountains shed the light hand to touch their wonder Gazing after her noiseless ascent which never happened while they watched.... Pearls— roll against warmth luxuriating offspring cool encircling contents iridesce their energies’ warning: Nothing quite that simple Nothing quite that still Nothing like the opulence on the Proud Eve of catastrophe Pearls— caught in the lining of what never happens the first time.... She heard them before she saw them rip their orbits! fission her universe! in the mezzanine of the symphony hall Pin ball in the Fun House Bingo bounce off— the hardwoods of space.... Universal Theory of Scatter? Even now I can still hear the clatter of their round smooth souls in the doorways of distant relatives How could I know? You would condemn me to find them all?

The daughter of the village Maire Is very fresh and very fair, A dazzling eyeful; She throws upon me such a spell That though my love I dare not tell, My heart is sighful. She has the cutest brown caniche, The French for "poodle" on a leash, While I have Bingo; A dog of doubtful pedigree, Part pug or pom or chow maybe, But full of stingo. The daughter of the village Maire Would like to speak with me, I'll swear, In her sweet lingo; But parlez-vous I find a bore, For I am British to the core, And so is Bingo Yet just to-day as we passed by, Our two dogs haulted eye to eye, In friendly poses; Oh, how I hope to-morrow they Will wag their tails in merry play, And rub their noses. * * * * * * * The daughter of the village Maire Today gave me a frigid stare, My hopes are blighted. I'll tell you how it came to pass . . . Last evening in the Square, alas! My sweet I sighted; And as she sauntered with her pet, Her dainty, her adored Frolette, I cried: "By Jingo!" Well, call it chance or call it fate, I made a dash . . . Too late, too late! Oh, naughty Bingo! The daughter of the village Maire That you'll forgive me, is my prayer And also Bingo. You should have shielded your caniche: You saw my dog strain on his leash And like a spring go. They say that Love will find a way - It definitely did, that day . . . Oh, canine noodles! Now it is only left to me To wonder - will your offspring be Poms, pugs or poodles?

The dreamy sea washed ashore bringing little bubbles of life to its end Children splashed and jumped as wave after wave fell in Bucket and ***** at the ready as castles from the sky formed from minds in youth and fairy tales Cream at the ready as grandads cap retreats crisped from the comfort of his strippy deckchair he waits Mothers blankets blown from the wind held down by a shoe to be lost and a stone found yet not cast These were the days we remember These are the days we forget These are the days to be treasured A fine sad old memory from a past we most had Ice cream sounds calling at fathers request Is grandma still yawning from bingo's night fest a donut for mother all sugared and warm don't forget Charlie as woof is all heard A match game of cricket from children about or footy at lunchtime sweet sand in your mouth These were the days we remember These are the days we forget These are the days to be treasured A fine sad old memory from a past we most had Asleep from the sun and a sneaky quick pint as dad tries to doze be free to unwind A call for 3 strikes as rounders is found hear grandad all snoring more cream to be crowned Tis time for a dip to twinkle your toes to jump back a mile oh blimey its cold These are the memories all children should have a time when no phones when a time wasn't planned No little computers to spoil the day just fun and great memories of children at play A time when your family all joined in the fun a shame we have lost this to greed and the sun

"You're so beautiful," says Mr. You-Deserve-Better. His friend, Joe I-Can-Be-Different, nods in agreement. I'm just Miss Single-20-Something searching for companionship finding nothing but the company of every one-track-minder in the Greater Portland Area. I've been promised the moon, stars, a few planets here or there. Receiving just grunted approvals from two-pump chumps with over-active sweat glands. So excuse the skepticism clouding my judgement as I roll all man kind into one conclusion: You all bark like dogs. If he acts like one, and smells like one, I'd say Bingo is his name-o. Just save it. This Jenny has been around the block. Your flowers will die. Your chocolates will go to my hips. For now, your name is Mud, and you can call me Miss Independent.

My Lighthouse Poem 4/4/2014 You make my toes tingle, I never noticed them before. You're like my hit single, in my mind every time I walk out the door, to start my day. You brighten my soul and one touch makes me feel a million different ways. One more positive than the other, but each heading in the same right direction, to you. I can't wait to trace every single millimeter of your body, like I am on a treasure hunt. And all I can find at each spot I come into contact with is golden beauty. Your words are pure and unadulterated, like the low sodium soy sauce and fresh ginger with sushi. Ooo, there's just something in your smile, and no it's not spinach. It's a reflection of a happier me, knowing that I could be with you and be happy. I'll call you my lighthouse, and nobody will understand. They'll think I was a lost ship, and that you helped me reach the sand. Really it's because you are a stable structure, out at an emotional sea in a dark sky night. Really it is because none of the others compare, to your special kind of shine bright, with that light, that I'm fixated on. On our first date we played bingo and shuffleboard. On our second date, sushi and tarot cards. Who knows what crazy adventures any future dates will be, but who really cares when they include you and me? Yeah, that's right, it's enough with just you and me, my lighthouse.

Work, eat, work, sleep. Work, sigh - new week. Bank holiday, work then tidy. Sleep, eat, work now Friday. Thank Crunchie, eat then tidy. Iron, sleep, new week, Monday. Met deadline, pat on back. Tighter deadline, fancy that. Have a breakfast, just be late, work, sleep, work, a date! Inspiration, "changed my life". Work, think, change my life. Starting Monday, new routine. Work, play! Eat, sleep. Missed deadline, angry voices. Work, more work? Awful choices. Work some more, please the boss. Work, more work, another week lost. New tie Tuesday, no one noticed. Stop and think why I wrote this. Just like thinking? Maybe not. Dislike the answer? Bingo! Stop. Thought too much, behind on deadline. Work some more, eat then bedtime.

it had to be ants. the town turned out, a pound a time, to see the model railway of dolgellau. amazing as it was, as you know i do like tiny things, expecially trains. more astonishing was the conversation, face close, on ants that bit up his legs at bingo, formic acid and calamine explained in detail. thre train went by, with tiny noise, as he rolled up his trouser leg to show me. the explaination as detailed as the dioramal, on and on and on. a nice man. my daughter saved me. twice. it was a good turnout, an excellent, award winning model railway. sbm.

What a strange title When I went to Aden (South Yemen) in 1964 It was to fight infiltrators from North Yemen How to spot where mines had been laid Where ambushes could take place Trained in how to **** at long and very close range But nobody mentioned the bugs Camel spiders almost four inches across Now they gave us great fun because we would catch them Then bet big money on the outcome of a fight with Another spider or a big scorpion Most times the spider would win but would then die But by then the bets had been paid Stephen E Yokum and Jonny Angel And thousands of American and British ex military Know about bugs Centipedes 9/12 inches long and stinking like you'd never believe Get one of those crawling on your skin and pull it off the wrong way and bingo You end up with a permanent tattoo Because their feet dig in We did have the good ones though Chameleons, we would keep them in our tents And feed them crickets and in return they would keep the flies down We learned to live with BUGS

Bugs and other Bugs
I need the beach sand in the places where it's hard to reach the sea clotted cream and strawberry jam for tea You at my side when the tide comes in bingo and sin, oh! the devil says no so sand eels fishing reels catch of the day. B and B you and me double room ideally.

Bikini String Bingo
Bashful, but sweet. Intelligence, with wit. Nice and kind. Gorgeous, with modesty. Outrageous, even when quiet. Bingo! You're my jackpot prize. You alone is my fortune. This you even told me. And this I believe. That you are the better part of me. Bingo! Lady, I love you so.

BINGO
When saliva is saturated we all need a wakeup call No matter how foreign we feel But at daybreak your love is like a milkshake It claws out my eyes and reluctantly takes Eleanor home for dinner She sits there She snorts She smiles She tore my heart into so many pieces that I'm still looking for the ones that rolled under the refrigerator Bingo and broadsides do little for my brain Ages of nothingness and drifting decades starve me Lies and mistakes and dreams refuse to move on They bounce off of Rosie's chin, mangle with age, and bitterly salute us as they die

Bingo! (Haiku)
Marching, hopping, running, waddling down the street, people with working feet oblivious to the stares of the woman in a chair. Why would they see her? She's not even their height! They are just people plodding and plotting, lives rotting slowly away. But, back to the woman in the chair Snooping on the crowd Watching the mothers tug at toddlers reins. Rowing teens shouting "bruv" a lot! She's mocking the crowd in her own way She has become them, just invisible. She likes it like that, knowing of you Yet them not knowing of her. Her awareness is acute, sees the businessman in his suit. The homeless man in his home called box, the elderly matrons moaning about bingo. The drunk with his bottle clutched as tight as the baby clutches her bear. The smokers all congregated at the altar of tar The shopkeeper eyeing the kids, missing the thief The security guard, guarding the pretty Little things, no, not the jewellery the teenage girls! Oh, his eyes are popping! His legs are twitching. His fingers itching to touch! Along with the sights are the sounds, shouting, laughing, heckling and coughing Smell,also plays a part in people watching fast food, sweat, the great unwashed. All plodding along, flocking like birds clogging the street, swapping gossip, unaware as always of the young woman in a wheelchair.

Who the Hell wants to Go off to Heaven? Think about it please: If you had to spend All eternity With “goody two shoes”, And “zipped up virgins”, And “pious ******* Always putting on Thick sweaters of wool Cause there ain’t no heat, Playing “Yahtzee” and “Old Maid” and “Go Fish” And “Bingo” and “Red Rover Red Rover” Send the next bore on Over! You’d pray and, Oh my dear, you‘d wish To come down to Hell Where the party’s at! By the time Heaven Starts serving soda Water and broccoli Oh my dear you’ll crave: ***** Linguini A full Trough of Sloth A Southern Wrath Wrap Greed’s mead, Peppered Pride Glutton’s Mutton and Sweet Envy’s Smoothie. Can you live with just Holding their cold hand? Sitting on some cloud, Gazing and never Feeling or touching? Never burning, nor Experimenting? This is blunt, but think, This is where all the Interesting folks Go! Laughter? Its here! Debauchery? Here! Creativity! Ingenuity! We are what made life, LIFE! Think about it! Has obedience, Has docility, Has simplicity, Has submission changed This world? This universe? A wise man, once said “If heaven is where, “Nice” folks like you go, Then its surely hell That I’d rather know” Here is the freedom! Here are the cool kids! Why starve in the light, When in the dark there’s Every delight and Every single thing Enjoyed throughout life?
