Passages on Fatherhood by Michael R. Burch for Jeremy Michael Burch He is my treasure, and by his happiness I measure my own worth. Four years old, with diamonds and gold bejeweled in his soul. His cherubic beauty is felicity to simplicity and passion— for a baseball thrown or an ice-cream cone or eggshell-blue skies. ... It’s hard to be “wise” when the years career through our lives and bees in their hives test faith and belief while Time, the great thief, with each falling leaf foreshadows grief. The wisdom of the ages and prophets and mages and doddering sages is useless unless it encompasses this: his kiss. Keywords/Tags: father, fatherhood, child, childhood, children, son, time, years, wisdom, kiss

Passages on Fatherhood
Jeremy the green alien Wore a bowler hat His favourite sport was darts And he had a pint with that He drove a little mini Made in 1985 It chugged and spurted down the road The alien could drive! He was popular with ladies He stood out from the crowd He always had one on his arm Despite not being loud. But Jeremy was lonely And sometimes he felt down His family from the planet plaxo Never came to town. Aliens are clever And aliens are bright He tinkered with his mini So that it could take flight So if you're sitting in the garden And a mini flies overhead Think of little Jeremy With his bowler hat upon his head! Jeremy visits Plaxo And flies to earth for dinner No more sadness anymore Jeremy is a winner!

Motorcycles are fickle things fleeting as fairies with whizzing wings don't always work when you want them to sometimes faultless sometimes poo mended mine again today set fire to it as well but hey, it goes again and kinda smiles waiting for the happy miles we do together in the sun this winters frost has been no fun My men's bits froze to popcorn size don't ride in the snow, so say the wise so wee and slow it won't go quick been so cold it's made me sick but got no licence for my car and my bike though slow gets me quite far got the car test coming soon easier to touch the moon worry so if I will pass maybe I should offer up my *** do the examiner ****** favours or pray to the lord my only saviour Hmmm my **** is not so cute, and prayer is such a selfish route I'll settle for a mournful wail when the examiner tells me "Jeremy.. FAIL!"

"Titles, Labels, and Names Part 1: Call me"
THE VERY THING IT WAS REQUIRED TO BE SHOWN ( for J.L ) "I like birds more than books." a young Edward Thomas thinks scribbling it in bad Latin on the fly leaf of an algebra book. A chaffinch chuckles. "Vink...vink...vink!" it urges in a regional accent. "Fringilla Coelebs!" Edward addresses it. "Sheld-appel...spink..blue cap!" the bird disowns its names content with being itself and itself only. It looks as if it has just stepped out of the 15th century illuminated maunuscript The Shelbourne Missal. "A caterpillar skeletonising a leaf mmm...breakfast mefinks!" The year  1895 madly in love with its own sunlight never such sunlight as this the window holds the scene as if it were a living painting. The bird behind the glass poetry in just being. The torture of an algebra class "Quod erat demonstrandum."

THE VERY THING IT WAS REQUIRED TO BE SHOWN( for Jeremy )
Its a phantom in my conscience that haunts my evenings often but is gone when the sun arises where the tortures remain constant I am not what you see these were not my dreams a cartoon buffoon for you to point and laugh with glee This isnt why I did this I didnt know the expense I put my heart for all to see to verify my existence Trying to exorcise my insides by the tears that I cry but it doesnt wash away the pain within my mind When most of these people only see me for my alter ego they want the struggling of my soul searching to always remain feeble So sorry Im untrusting all I wanted was a friend yet again when I have nothing theyre all gone with the wind Hollow another bottle heres another ***** be our joker of sorrow expose your madness some more Youre here for our amusement you have a gift so use it split your personality give us the one that self abuses Why are you so quiet? its not the Jeremy that I know isnt it time to riot? where is your red nose?

This morning i watched Jeremy kyle! Another father in a useless denile! Another ***** with the width of a bar stool, Chucks another father in with the disgusting gene pool. Miserable forlorn Cattle going to slaughter, Have more class than your abhorent daughter! The pity i feel for that wretched child, Thats bought up in a system that's been defiled. The onlookers cheer as another ****** makes a jest. About the poor man shes been using is clothed in some ill fitting vest. Well done contestant three, You have proved to us the ***** you can be! Now please take your rapid leave, Before we call your **** or boyfriend Steve. That you've been sleeping with your cousin, And no doubt have his bun in your oven!

There's a darkness in me I mean, probably only figuratively We'll have to wait and see Seven masks of sin but one entity All splitting a single fractured personality Head spins wildly I've searched quietly I've asked loudly I've had to cry and scream internally Keeping it caged and locked inside has caused me to break down repeatedly No outcome that I've found is a guarantee So, I guess it's a guaranteed mystery Of course it is, fuuck me... Something that quite possibly will only make sense to me in a different plane of reality ...uh...that doesn't help at all actually Hopeless is often a stand-in for the elusive positivity It comes along so rarely one could hardly be blamed for questioning the authenticity Then there's this two way brutality It devours not because it's hungry but because it's so god daamn greedy I'm not suppose to let it out of me I'm told this as I feel it under my skin ripping up the already dilapidated basic human anatomy This is a one man operation so it breaks out occasionally But the goal though, if it were to ever be left up to me, my preferred destiny The socially dreaded monotony I embrace it knowing it will never be enough to right such a severe mental instability Didn't think it was destined to be a doomed mission but maybe it was done vainly It's not easily put into words but it feels like thievery It's stolen chunks of life from me and didn't have the decency to even leave me a silver hair sliver of a memory Turned me into a mockery of Jeremy Right back to the old me My own worst enemy A part I've played so absolute I almost destroyed me I've explained it to me slowly Barley made it this far and the next 40, They're looking to be just as iffy Half devils reject, half whatever you see Sprinkle in a little lie here and there as a preserve for longevity Worry about it later, only if it bites me 100% broken but realistically only maybe half evil so, you know, 333 ©2024

Progress by Michael R. Burch There is no sense of urgency at the local Burger King. Birds and squirrels squabble outside for the last scraps of autumn: remnants of buns, goopy pulps of dill pickles, mucousy lettuce, sesame seeds. Inside, the workers all move with the same très-glamorous lethargy, conserving their energy, one assumes, for more pressing endeavors: concerts and proms, pep rallies, keg parties, reruns of Jenny McCarthy on MTV. The manager, as usual, is on the phone, talking to her boyfriend. She gently smiles, brushing back wisps of insouciant hair, ready for the cover of Glamour or Vogue. Through her filmy white blouse an indiscreet strap suspends a lace cup through which somehow the ****** still shows. Progress, we guess, ... and wait patiently in line, hoping the Pokémons hold out. NOTE: This poem is almost entirely fiction. There was a Pokemon craze when my son Jeremy was a little boy, and I did see birds and squirrels foraging in parking lots from time to time (and sometimes fed them myself from my car’s window), but everything else is fiction. On the rare occasions that I went to a Burger King, I would go through the drive-in, so I wouldn’t have known who the manager was, or how much time ***** spent on the phone. I think the poem probably started with the image of birds and squirrels squabbling for scraps of food in a parking lot as I waited in a line of slow-moving cars, then evolved as I imagined the hassle of going inside to “speed things up.” Keywords/Tags: America, Americana, American, culture, society, vanity, youth, progress, fast food, video games, Pokemon, MTV, music videos, glamour, models, supermodels, fashion, transparency, see-through, bra, breast, *******

Jeremy Duff woke up as he usually does on a Tuesday morning. With the alarm clock blaring he lifted his right arm from off his wife's chest. He stood up, covered his wife's bare torso with the purple, fuzzy, comforter and walked to the bathroom, naked. He turned on the sink so hot water would begin to pour out. After completing his usual morning routine of shaving, dressing, smoking, and eating, respectively, Jeremy began his walk to work. It was, on a typical day, and this was a typical day,  a twelve minute walk. He lit a cigarette the moment his feet hit the sidewalk. It was the first of, on a typical day, thirty-eight. Jeremy worked on the 27th floor, which he thought of as funny as he pressed the "27" button, as he did on any typical day. His job was to edit spelling on essays before they would be turned in for final inspection. Then, as his boss put it, if the writers were lucky, they would see the essays in the next issue of Story Magazine. He sat down in his office, lit his third cigarette of the day, and looked at the large stack of papers in front of him. If he was lucky, Jeremy thought, he could get halfway through the stack and take his 10 early, to see his wife. The first one on the stack was entitled "The Young Folks." It had a blue sticky note on it reading "Vignette, Salinger, Jerome David, 1,794 words." Jeremy read it, purely aesthetically, looking only for spelling mistakes. Finding none, he put a quick check on the blue sticky note. Mr. Duff lit his 5th cigarette and read the story again. It was phenomenal. He read it a third time, while smoking his 6th cigarette. Jeremy finished the first half of the stack and lit his 9th cigarette. He grabbed the story by Salinger and began his walk home. His wife greeted him at the door with kisses. He showed her the story. She read it, read it again and told him it was great. She just didn't understand, Mr. Duff thought.

Jeremy Duff woke up as he usually does on a Tuesday morning. With the alarm clock blaring he lifted his right arm from off his wife's chest. He stood up, covered his wife's bare torso with the purple, fuzzy, comforter and walked to the bathroom, naked. He turned on the sink so hot water would begin to pour out. After completing his usual morning routine of shaving, dressing, smoking, and eating, respectively, Jeremy began his walk to work. It was, on a typical day, and this was a typical day,  a twelve minute walk. He lit a cigarette the moment his feet hit the sidewalk. It was the first of, on a typical day, thirty-eight. Jeremy worked on the 27th floor, which he thought of as funny as he pressed the "27" button, as he did on any typical day. His job was to edit spelling on essays before they would be turned in for final inspection. Then, as his boss put it, if the writers were lucky, they would see the essays in the next issue of Story Magazine. He sat down in his office, lit his third cigarette of the day, and looked at the large stack of papers in front of him. If he was lucky, Jeremy thought, he could get halfway through the stack and take his 10 early, to see his wife. The first one on the stack was entitled "The Young Folks." It had a blue sticky note on it reading "Vignette, Salinger, Jerome David, 1,794 words." Jeremy read it, purely aesthetically, looking only for spelling mistakes. Finding none, he put a quick check on the blue sticky note. Mr. Duff lit his 5th cigarette and read the story again. It was phenomenal. He read it a third time, while smoking his 6th cigarette. Jeremy finished the first half of the stack and lit his 9th cigarette. He grabbed the story by Salinger and began his walk home. His wife greeted him at the door with kisses. He showed her the story. She read it, read it again and told him it was great. She just didn't understand, Mr. Duff thought.

. I survived Cameron and his band of hatchet men remember when Thatcher took the axe to school milk? but you ******* voted her in as smooth as silk but we see her now as the sows ear she was. I won't vote for Corbyn he never went and yet he's already a has been, never seen that before excepting Jeremy and they named a park after him. Thorpe. Once when I drew a breath in Toxteth and the carnival was the riot I got a bit but that's censored. Anyway in Lancaster it's raining although it was cool down in Blackpool with the Duchess and only a slight breeze and a sneeze or two passing by Blackpool zoo. Goodnight y'all don't fall asleep before you've said your prayers.

Such a shame to let loose That I have absolutely no clue what I'm doing But pretending seems to work so well; You all claw at plasticine symbols The letters deplored with a swish of the ink well. Calligraphic self destructions mean something to somebody Over an ocean with eyes so slight as to shine in the darkness, Glinting in robes of black on the rooftops of rich dynastics And the rhymes of yesterday creeping to the forefront, Reminding me just of how hopeless hopelessness is-- The assonance of a retreating boxcar Is steaming into the backdrops of consciousness. Is it time to rewind somewhere? The visages of paintings only mean so much To the blind bats on cave walls in cavernous reaches Of static television snow drifts. It seems that you and I have come to the biggest of filamentous rifts: Sifting between now and then we have mind-skips Of epic proportion, a sickened distortion Of all of the children left in their contortions It's all leprosy in my eyes Since the skies are burning down as we pinpoint abortion. And we release that defeat, and try to find meaning in it all: A lie of great size Told from my lips yet it was-- You who believed me. Together we made a chimera A deception even worse than anything I've ever known I said that some god had told me all the things that that that-- I can't begin to begin an apology My mouth mummified by request next to Jeremy Bentham I only wanted what's best for you-- But look at what you've done! Oh, Crusades! Oh, Crusades! Children don't lie with your eyes on the sunset For Nietzsche is the ultimate navigator! And you finally catch sight of the top of an alligator floating in the oil, staring at you slanted eyes smiling cruel. It all makes sense now, what half believed lies That explain how the darkness will come to rise But the opposite side of our crystalline marble Has known all along, they knew all along! Facing the east, wasn't He? Then even he knew Perhaps what I said was not all untrue And in fact the fault lies with Him Not me, Not you. Sincerely, The Bible.

I try not to paint it in a pretty light because there is nothing pretty about it. It is strong and it is beautiful and it will knock you on your *** but it is not pretty. It is black and cold and poisonous, and it practices it's art with extreme prejudice. Whether you say its your last time or whether you say nothing, you are lying to yourself. ****** the dark mistress, whom I fly towards like a moth to a light on a dark night. ****** the cunning sorcerer, who has caught  me under his deadly spell. I am not powerless to my addiction. No, I am wrong, it is not MY addiction, I am the addictions user. But I will break free. Jeremy Freeman, the fastest gun west of the Sierra Nevadas.

Charlotte sat and thought of all the beauty he told her of She needed him tonight; he didn't need her Another teenage heart racing with pain Jeremy sat and thought of the new girl The new girl with her flowing blonde hair He wanted her tonight; she didn't want him Another teenage heart racing with lust Charlotte sat and thought of the boy she met a week later The boy with his messy hair and odd sense of humour She loved him tonight; he loved her too Another teenage heart racing with satisfaction Jeremy sat and thought of his only love, Charlotte Charlotte, with her choppy brown hair and crooked smile...and her new boyfriend He missed her tonight, and tomorrow too; she didn't miss him tonight or ever again Another teenage heart racing with nostalgia

Every village, town and city of mass proportion is bound to have some The ‘didn’t make the grade at school’ so who else will now take them The parents repugnant, ****** and living off the dole Breed with each other to produce their spawn, the taxpayer taking this toll Infesting our lives with their spit and their spat, just turn on Jeremy Kyle You’ll see what I mean, like a bad daydream, their being is utmost vile Its entertainment to some who revere in this mess, only glad that its not them Sulking the streets and just on the scrounge and oh look, their face on the News at Ten ****** is harsh as it’s not what I mean, but it fits the slot so well So why are they here and what is their use, doesn’t the devil need a hand in hell? But they exist, and you see them every day, hanging on the corner of the street Even the village idiot had his job, backwards in kind but still rather sweet So what do we do in trying to combat this evolution, going backwards in the blink of an eye Education is wasted and the armed forces is a no, it almost makes me want to stop and cry So this is the way that the human may go, just look back at the millennia’s past The dinosaurs failed and the mammoth is gone, just how long are we going to last?

The Retards (harsh but true)
the bell jingles as she steps into the holiday stationstore on the corner of two discarded streets, signs too battered to read there was free hot chocolate on tuesdays it was always a little too sweet the cream-colored tile is stained by thousands of half-cleaned messes the faint squeak of the roller grill complimenting cheesy pop music bright packages scream brand names she never buys she picks a cup, the smallest size and fills it ignoring the drips of pumpkin spice on the counter, left by a hurried predecessor she adds cream she doesn't think about the calories she doesn't think about what her friends are up to she doesn't think about how much she hates hearing this **** song she thinks about grabbing a snickers for the road shredded black combat boots thump to the register she sets her snickers bar on the counter paying the cashier (jeremy) with a crumpled dollar bill his gray eyes brim with something like pity, like they do every week she pretends not to see he says something she pretends not to hear he says something else she walks out icy rain makes her pull her hood tighter she sips the cocoa it always was a little too sweet

Could we cut ourselves off from our country? Burn all the books and monochrome rules; Sever the fragile vessels of history? I want to walk fast without news in my ear over hills and fields and so thrilled with fear; I want to take a tab of fantastic poison and see the world lit up in a kaleidoscope of flags. Through woods, past trees, I will kick leaves and brave a universe of tumbleweeds. And from beneath a canopy of luxury a paradise I see past the sun, where all is free and hatred wastes and bleeds. But everything is not as it seems - Back home I dream in cut-throat numbers vile quantities disturb my slumbers. My identity drifts in the TV; Jeremy Kyle makes my last plea as my ears fill with adultery. And then there are debts that flash up - my patience cracks into a pool of anguish. I must get away, get away from this madness.
