"incontinence" poems
*This is one of the racier "Memories" poems by the great Barry Hodges, my alter ego. It might well make you come involuntarily in your ****** How happy was I once with the wind in my hair Wandering o'er the dales with joyousness unmeasur'd, In the sweet long passed innocent days of platonic love When stolen gropes and kiss were to be treasured. But all good and true things come to a sad close And my poor first love lies in her grave so sorrowfully Having been crushed to death by a runaway steamroller Before I managed to go all the way quite thoroughly. What a waste of delightful teenage flesh was that Yet perhaps I had a narrow escape from the derangement Which might have been mine had our trysting Led to a semi-permanent matrimonial arrangement. For I recall one afternoon in the old ABC cinema In the delighful Yorkshire spa town of Harrogate, Sitting next to my gorgeous love in the back row, Exploring her not so very private parts on a hot date. How I cursed the management's niggardly folly In not showing a film with hot romantic blood But saving pathetic pennies by putting on Daffy ******** Duck and Elmer ******* Fudd. But yet I perserved with my digital explorations Unaware that the throbs my fingers felt were no dream But darling Elsie laughing like a proverbial drain At Daffy's hilarious anatine adventures on-screen. 'Twas then I began to wonder about the viscous liquid I had hitherto imagined was Elsie's lovejuice flowing *(dear, dear reader, cease your perusal of my tale forthwith if you are of a nervous disposition or prone to food up-throwing)*. It was only a careful examination of my sopping knuckles In the dimly lit gents after old Daffy's film was done and dusted Which revealed that my dearly beloved had leaked Big time out of both ends, leaving my fingers well encrusted. O to think that, but for Daffy, I might have been lumbered With a different kind of bird for whom double incontinence Was a way of life (thus, the fatal steamroller she encountered The very next day was a blessing from kindly Providence).

Memories of Harrogate and the Yorkshire Dales

Incontinence of Pseudo-emotion has engulfed us from the 3rd grade. It festered dormant for a little under a decade before it’s vessel popped. A pore filled with ***** media which dehumanizes and objectives human beings While making a spectacle and esteem of being promiscuous. All that Dirt Lathered in an oil of misdirection. A misunderstanding of affection, empathy and apathy. Those who contrive the most emotion are perceived as actually possessing the most emotion. Nothing can be farther from the truth. This is the death of morality. A birth of Nihilism. The miasma of the rotting corpse of ethos and emotional connection. Is one that sits in the stomach and contracts illness not curable due to our understanding. We have been taught that promiscuity will bring us happiness, and yet it is the most depressing. Without understanding of that we are incurable from this ugly affliction. Momentary bursts of relief chafe the most sensitive areas of our skin. Without treatment. We will be encased in our handmade carapace which will indefinitely block us from emotion. Luckily someone invented lotion, soft tissues, and silicone.

Rubbed Rawng
A quiet kid, lonely in the rain, fingers the nickels and pennies in his pockets, waiting for the bus to splash around the corner, so he can get to work. He lives with a demon of a roommate, and shares snores with the roaches, Bathing in the shower of their incontinence. After college, he lost it and wrecked his mind in a haze of liquor so foggy it swallowed the moon for awhile. He stumbles through pitch black nights with an ugly soul and redemption on his mind; The worst kind of late night wanderer. Coffee and sugar keep him alive-- just like war and famine are the black angel's wives-- bringing him back into this liquid reality. In the mornings he breathes in this world, totally sober. It tastes like sourness and the milk of ***** entrapped in blue jeans in 100 degree weather all day. It was the worst kind of sobriety. All the horrors of birth. He lives many lives: One for his mother, where he plants fruitless kisses on her cheeks. Little wreaths of future disappointment. She hugs him so warmly. It makes him want to suckle his .45. One for work, all smiles and plumb submission. 9-5. 5-2. 12-9. 6-3. 4-12. And if he's lucky 12-4 on saturdays. All this in 5 dollar clothes and a rumplestiltskin attitude; trying to weave his own ugliness into truth. One for his girl, the one who'd hurl her tongue at Appollo, puke up her month's sugar intake, and curl her fingers so tight that she cut the cappillaries, making a red and white fist like a christmas cinnabon: If he ever told her who he really was. His love for her is secret. One life for himself, to keep the mirror happy. This kid. He's all or nothing.

Then there are those times you write Because otherwise the words will tear you up inside Like supercharged particles Of steam under pressure Or uranium reaching critical mass So you set to the task Grab pen and paper Or iPhone and browser And start uploading your sins onto clean white sheets Of loose leaf or LCD As if possessed by some other self Or non-self Itself a fountain of diction A percolation of syntax Bubbling up and out so as not to **** the messenger And lines flow Kia ora koutou katoa Nga hoa Me toku whanau My friends And family Be well See well through this life And her pitfalls Tall walls and Crash courses in experience Standard variance and deviation from the mean She can be mean She can be cruel and unkind sometimes But you’ll find rhymes to make lines line up like signs on the highway And find even in grief there is beauty Truth in pain Life in suffering There is no judgement inherent in these things and none at all other than that which we place upon them Negative or positive are uniquely human conditions Everything else just is It sits within itself Without apprehension of the fourth dimension Not beating up younger selves for poor decisions made by poorly equipped versions Nor fearing an abstract time hence From whence march our fears about death And a life well spent And incontinence And I think my phone bill is going to be massive And I think my 2 minutes is up And I think my 15 minutes is up Where was I again?

*I groggily stumble out of bed My high pitched ear splitting alarm Having ****** me to consciousness Everything around me seemingly heel over head Spiraling up and down virtual staircases of confusion. Aftereffects of a long night cut short inadvertently, causing untoward harm Thank Heavens I don’t suffer from urinary incontinence It’d otherwise be a disaster of mind boggling proportion I go about my daily routine tasks in slow haste Mine eyes heavier than lead, straining to keep them alert I hurriedly help myself to a serving of chips doused in tomato paste I top up my morning meal with a  chocolate mousse dessert I proceed to kiss mummy on the cheek Wishing and hoping for a good week.*

Sleepy Wakefulness.
What is it really like to be old? Read along, and you'll be told, Well, there's spectacles and hearing aids, Also along the way, by the way, There's dentures in glasses, Zimmers on greys who want to make passes, Then there's incontinence aids, bad hips, Appointments at medical specialists, Then you're off to the pharmacists, To get all your scripts, Then there's the alphabet song, Read along, read along, A is for Arthritis, B is for Bursitis, C is for Constipation, Always a grey consternation, D is for Diarrhoea, And no doctor wants to know ya! Finally, Z is for the big sleep at the end, No wonder geriatrics go round the bend, Yes, greys, these are our golden years, Have fun learning, no need for tears!

AH, THE JOYS OF AGING.......
It’s the Shiite Protestants we fear the most. It’s the ******* Christians Scaring the **** out of us now. It’s those John Birch Catholics Making us fill our boots with *** As in shaking, quaking in our boots, Complete loss of bladder control (BLAD-CON MED AD HERE. I invite Pfizer, Merck and GlaxoSmithKline To get in on this poem: The poet continuing to reject the Dying in the gutter-artist track, Making poetry pay at last, that’s right: A commercial right in the Middle of a ******* poem. Hey Big Pharma: What are you selling? What you got for incontinence, Babaloo?) But I digress. I was making a point about Far-right Christian evangelicals, A significant demographic within the American electorate. Jesus was an Aryan, they believe. Degenerate Art, Literature, Music & Jews must go! It’s time to purify the race again. Time for the Huns & Other Teutonic tribes to Broadcast insidious seed. Anti-Semitism rebooted. Jew-bashing in America 8.0. Need I remind the Tea Party that Haym Solomon-- a Philadelphia Jew-- Financed the Revolution. What about Bernie Madoff? When a smart Jew goes to jail in America, Anything could happen.

“It’s the Shiite Protestants”
A vast valley of empty noise. Muffled screams ambient like static. Dodging cunning plans and ploys. As each friend intends to wreak havoc. I set aflame in rage and shame. Smoke signals soar high from my side. As I try to decide what is wise. Incontinence of the lips disguised as clever banter. Hollow thoughts reveal themselves and foggy eyes gleam far and wide. I'll have a drink of endless size. "I'd rather be anywhere, or anything" I say whilst reaching for a decanter.

Shakespeare and Incontinence (10 words)
even tho the fire was never really lit truly human, their tousled hair and sad eyed lowland blues owning the fullness of natural emptiness ain’t no crime, like a double negative, to which no one no cares no objects when spoken those bad boysenberries radiate a flirty tarty aure, venus fly traps for those needy to do a saving, the sweets of the the three poems memorized for wooing, oft another’s undoing, the top button releasing a burning bush of chest heat being misleading the  reddening cheeks was a bad boy once of ill repute, daddies and mommies warning their innocents of my word of mouth reputation, making me 100% irresistible, so all forgot when climbing into my two-seater to go moon gazing swooning,  learning the moves practiced in nightime bad boys still need saving sooner but usually later, cause moon gazing is still a thrill for his new audience of grand children, proof that some of them boys are hiding well enough stuff beneath their veneer be the miner of a thousand years, teach these child boys well, crack them open, let the empty escape and light rays spill in **** if some of those bad boys grow up now, just to be  bad poets laughing at the foolishness of the early days of discontented shortsightedness incontinence of a soul fumbling

even bad boys need saving
Friend I beseech you now…. nothing lasts forever You deal a hand and play the cards to hold your pile together, Win a few or lose a few we’re all players in this game But mark my words the outcome’s won by fear… and not the fame. Just make the most of what you’ve got regardless of the mix, Let fear of failure motivate your liberating fix… So spin the dice boy, play the game, you’ll either win or lose But with fear the overriding force, I know which way I’d choose. Good Luck! M. Foxglove farm 6 May 2016

An Overriding Incontinence
If I revealed, in genuine, the depths of my desire, I’d understand your hesitance, you likely would be shyer. So I should lie wholeheartedly. But should I? Would I try, if knowing that there’s one way through – by seeing eye to eye – and we misstep. There’s nothing left, but dignity. Why lie when dominance, incontinence are falling rather flat (just like you) is pretty now at least you aren’t fat.

code poem #4
I’m emotional And sensitive. There is no rational reason as to why I cry harder, Feel stronger, Tire quicker. I don’t know why I shatter into fragments from the smallest of things. It’s a maddening incontinence.   I’ve learned to grow. Seeds of wisdom blossomed from once parched dirt Over the ages I crawled and bruised my way through. I have a clearer understanding of how the universe works now But I am in no way a master.   There is still so much more to discover And that alone is what I believe grounds me. That simple curiosity Of what will happen next. I’m emotional And sensitive. There’s no rational reason as to why My soul pours into everything without my consent. As if it’s always desperately reaching out to grasp something. An error in being human, I suppose. I have grown to see that I wear my heart on my sleeve. It’s a fact I sometimes have difficulty accepting. A fact I often shun away Because it can be crushing to feel so much, so quickly and all at once. I wish I were better at pretending And hiding from feeling But I can’t seem to wrap my heart in clever and beautiful metaphors or allegories like some can. There are many things left to learn, I suppose. But what I have learned so far is: When a person says they do not feel They are the ones who feel the most. I know this to be true Because I say the same lies too.

Steps
Anger boils like a raw egg on hot sidewalk Charred and smoky That type of anger that slow roast over a period of time Often forgotten or forgiven for minor transgressions That have made themselves known again Much to the displeasure of annoyance "I thought you better than that." This what ever it is Just gets worse when you drink I'm not sure its a difference in incontinence, ability, or mind But my friend you need to stop this **** For there won't be a next time.

Arrogance will be your folly
To a man of a certain age Hamlet's speech rings true as one treks across the vast continent of Incontinence . "To *** or not to *** That is the vexation. Whether it is nobler in the mind To go in one's pants or Do that I WANNA GO TO THE LOO! dance. The blather of the too full bladder. Ok ok it's **** poor Shakespeare but when a man's gotta go he's gotta go and then you find you have splashed on your toe! This woe of wee that is alas me.

TO A MAN OF A CERTAIN AGE
That we crave. To hunger and to lavish in this place. Humbling and irritable. Green as life. Green as poison. Green as envy. Vexing. Illusions and illustrations of what we want. Imagined by the imitable. Synthetic satisfaction. Sins of Incontinence. Sins of Hunger. Sins of Commonality. To be half is to be all.

Incontinence
These are required. Our house was broken into while I slept and died. Poorly vented incontinence. People begin isolation from teachers and students. Some holding children hands. Some who hack away their friends. Husbands, girlfriends, etc. Unaware of their children. the farthest branch. assures us there is life. where chatter swells in sight of gold. where a raccoon sees clouds, but no sun. the moon reflects lifeless, controlling planes & folds foreign. even if so his reach would only meet his grasp. but it can not be this way. the clouds move & swell. protecting us from ourselves. from bizzare nebulas & unknown entities. harbingers of death originating from our silky cigarettes & lean machines. inside the heavens, golden & blue. beyoned the heavens there is a degree of souls, all souls asking each other & us the same questions. why this way? if you loved me, it would not be. further into God's home, the things deep in his rivers & far down his roads say, if you loved me, together we'd stand. the cobwebs run behind the shadows placing my hand near sight. i see divine, everlasting life. how can it be so? i do not move mountains. my blood does not course from me sweet as wine. i am here as the jaguar. black as night. untouched by morning's warmth. unseen by our sun's eye, who stays my eternal enemy, yet always in my heart, my sleep. alone he sits. far away. telling us forever, never tiring, if only you loved me. the copper straightens itself holding mountains together, shiny veins the trees speak in the language of survival, cells

Red, Orange, Yellow These colours make me mellow Green, Blue, Violet One can say, the colours of silence Indigo This one cannot go Though I must admit It is only fit That in this metropolis Of colours; not monotonous They foster a sort of preponderance Though when squished, form A sort of colourful incontinence, A bowel movement like this. Because these colours, when mixed Form a brown-ish bliss A ***** abyss Though ugly; something amiss This uniqueness can’t be missed I find myself lost in this And I have no idea when to stop it I’ll swallow my words down my oesophagus To end this literary incompetence.

Defecation Dilemma
A Vain Word by Michael R. Burch Oleanders at dawn preen extravagant whorls as I read in leaves’ Sanskrit brief moments remaining till sunset implodes, till the moon strands grey pearls under moss-stubbled oaks, full of whispers, complaining to the darkening autumn, how swiftly life goes— as I fled before love ... Now, through leaves trodden black, shivering, I wander as winter’s first throes of cool listless snow drench my cheeks, back and neck. I discerned in one season all eternities of grief, the specter of death sprawled out under the rose, the last consequence of faith in the flight of one leaf, the incontinence of age, as life’s bright torrent slows. O, where are you now?—I was timid, absurd. I would find comfort again in a vain word. Published by Chrysanthemum and Tucumcari Literary Review.
