If I'm a plumber then she's my princess peach, if she's Zelda, then I'm her Link. If my life was Contra, then she's my Konami Code. Can't you tell ny Lady is the subject of this ode? If she's Curly Brace then I'm her counterpart Quote, Seriously, I'm in love with her if you didn't catch it I left a few notes, If I'm the Belmonts, then she's the vampire killer, if I'm Michael, she's my thriller. If I'm Pac-Man, then she's my Miss If I'm Alucard, then she's my transformation into mist If I'm Kirby then she's waddle Dee, quite frankly this is getting sappy so I'll get to the point. I love this girl more than a stoner loves a joint. (bonus points if you can name all the games referenced, and the Konami Code)

8-Bit love(heart container)
Beyond your television Lies vast hills, along with many jumps and much thrill Mario jumps Zelda swings As Kirby swallows Donkey kong beats, Star fox flies ever so high While niko goes bowling Roman started to cry Meta knight stares ominously As a goomba cautiously walks A turtle shell turns blue While the Mario kart racers get mad too.... We all know sleeping dogs don't lie We joined a guild during an MMO war Where we smashed every single one of our keyboards

My pups are in bed, both tightly together. They need their head(s), because of the weather! The ground is so wet, such clouds in the sky! They shiver, like threat: I 'd ask myself, "why?!" Seeing me, they get up. Yoshi watches as Kirby grins. Clawing our door, both of my pup, would be as just the cutest twins! I open the door, for them. They'd sit, being so gracious. Being just the cutest gem(s), my dogs, they're precious! They perform their neat tricks: both wait for their sweet treat. I’d give each one, transfix(ed), of course they then both eat!

Eureka a-ha Pop
Where are you? The crowd tries to bustle the tickets out of my clenched hands I cannot seem to find you. For a second, there! a flash of you, vanishing as a corner carries you away I know you're near, but not what's happening Are you running towards the gate? Or away from me? Find a bar, meet a new friend Steps 1 and 2 in a magic spell 3 sips, a story, 4 drinks, and you're on an adventure while I am the gatekeeper The Fire Lord to your Avatar, the Sauron to your Frodo, trying to trap you at every turn. But that is ok. Fight me, triumph over me, throw my ring in the fires I'd rather see that than, see you get stuck at this ****** airport you have your own adventures to live worlds to travel, magic to share. you are my love, my hero, the one who triumphs over evil, the elven star to my Shelob's lair, the gandolf to my Balrog, the s.h.i.e.l.d. to my H.Y.D.R.A. the kirby to my Galeem, the nephalem to my Diablo. not just that- you are little moments of light found in between the chaos of time You are everything I imagined and more when my world was dark, and the only hope I could cling to was the idea of my future, and perhaps the someone, (that heroes always meet) who drives away the darkness and holds their hand. You are the one to see the world with the destination of my travels, the one to land with. my partner. but not if, to you, I am the gatekeeper. and I'd rather be the gatekeeper (even if it means you know what) than watch you get stuck and your magic fade and your steps falter and your soul struggle to breathe, and you hate yourself, I'd rather you hate me and get out of this airport because otherwise, evil would truly win. and that that is what would end me.

A Thanksgiving poem for all. Morning wood Morning wood my inconvenient friend, Morning wood you woke me up again, Morning wood fronting like a kickstand, Morning wood oft held by groggy hand, Morning wood I steady for a wee. on the floor. on the bowl. please don't land on me! Morning wood born from a bladder full, Morning wood my friend, my favorite tool. By John Kirby

Morning Wood
Like a thief, he came and took her “life”~ As though he thought he had a right. A little girl so strong and bold~ Was laid to rest, her joy gone cold. It only took one evil choice to destroy her innocence and leave her void. A void that filled so much of her with satan’s lies and destructive words. But one night as the child cried out in shame for some reason to live ~ He called her name. A God so faithful, kind, and true~ Reached out His love, and made her new. ~~~~ A young teen girl who’d saved that right for her husband on their wedding night. Was robbed of something she’d vowed to treasure for a young man’s evil, selfish pleasure. A selfish act that changed her path~ Created in her such hate and wrath. But one night as the girl searched again for some reason to live~ He called her name. A God so faithful, kind, and true~ Reached out His love, and made her new. ~~~~ A battered woman, tired and weak from empty promises he wouldn’t keep. Stared in the mirror at empty eyes that only saw his deceit and lies. Her baby sleeping in the night~ Pills filled her hand to end her life. But that night as the woman screamed in pain for some reason to live~ He called her name. A God so faithful, kind, and true~ Reached out His love~ And made her~ NEW. LA Kirby 3/27/09

My beagle is lying in his bed, Sleeping with dreams in his head. He looks cozy and comfy all tucked in, With blankets all the way up to his chin. He looks very lazy just sleeping there, But he is alert when he opens his eyes to stare. When the neighboring dog comes around, My dog Kirby is going to be bound To get up and bark with ferocious might When the enemy dog is within his sight. So anybody who passes by beware, You are going to be under my dog's stare.

The Reverse Button
"Taking It Home to Jerome" by David Kirby ~~~ In Baton Rouge, there was a DJ on the soul station who was always urging his listeners to ‘‘take it on home to Jerome.’’ No one knew who Jerome was. And nobody cared. So it didn’t matter. I was, what, ten, twelve? I didn’t have anything to take home to anyone. Parents and teachers told us that all we needed to do in this world were three things: be happy, do good, and find work that fulfills you. But I also wanted to learn that trick where you grab your left ankle in your right hand and then jump through with your other leg. Everything else was to come, everything about love: the sadness of it, knowing it can’t last, that all lives must end, all hearts are broken. Sometimes when I’m writing a poem, I feel as though I’m operating that crusher that turns a full-sized car into a metal cube the size of a suitcase. At other times, I’m just a secretary: the world has so much to say, and I’m writing it down. This great tenderness. --- A professor at Florida State University, David Kirby is the author of 12 collections of poetry, including ‘‘Get Up, Please,’’ which will be published next month by LSU Press.

"Taking It Home to Jerome" by David Kirby
Drinking wine from water bottles Losing the feeling of upper class It is just another bottle to dive into The haunted house on Kirby road The single lit candle in the abandoned bathroom Dogs barking on chains Signs screaming private property Driving through graveyards Ashing on the dead In small towns the gas meters don’t matter As the youth hunt for fear Disturbing the peace to find The little girls grave.

He shot Max. My God. He shot Max. Blood sprayed on the streets at the uniform's feet. They shot Kirby. Oh Lord. They shot Kirby. Bullet holes punch his flesh. Pain radiates fresh. She shot Kiki. F**k me. She shot Kiki. Inside her own fence? You call that self-defense? So man's best friend comes to an end.

Every Dog Has His Death
(born Stanley Martin Lieber /ˈliːbər/, December 28, 1922 – November 12, 2018) American comic-book writer, editor, and publisher. He was editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics, later its publisher and chairman, leading its expansion from a small division of a publishing house to a large multimedia corporation. In collaboration with several artists – particularly Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko – he co-created fictional characters including Spider-Man, the Hulk, Doctor Strange, the Fantastic Four, Daredevil, Black Panther, the X-Men, and – with his brother and co-writer Larry Lieber – the characters of Ant-Man, Iron Man, and Thor. In doing so, he pioneered a more complex approach to writing superheroes in the 1960s, and in the 1970s challenged the standards of the Comics Code Authority leading to it updating its policies.

RIP Stan Lee: Unwittingly the father of all we know
You came to me an empty shell. Or so you said. Your mask, your fake, your facade insidious with disregard. Take me take me take my broken spirit.....such an easy target....Kitchen Radio providing the soundtrack for the beginning of the end. The end of chances to be the center of someone's universe. Mr. Kirby and Ralph can attest: I was just a target....a country to be conquered. No war torn ruins for you to lord over. The only kingdom you rule is regret. Shine on with your patina of tarnished deeds. Let your isolation feed your lonliness..... so desperately sad that no heart is safe from your wrath. Blow upon blow-your words and silence each a fist for your fix. Your love a poison without cure......like Midas with no use for gold.

HEY Announcement!
If I could create the perfect love. I would sculpture an image of you. Each form would be in your liken. A crafted carving worth loving. Whether it with wood. Whether it with stone or plastic. You can bet you be perfect. On that pedestal you will stand. With your arms reaching out to touch my hands. I wouldn't alter you after I'm through. Because I'm the artist that took time to make you. Da vinci or Frazetta or Buscema or Kirby. You'll be a prime example of the image of love. Created by someone you will truly love. This magical touch will leave an imprint. With the words proclaiming at the bottom. To the one I truly love.

I'll Sculpture (An Image of You)
The unequivocal sorcerer of slaughter, I touched the altar and altered my saucer. Also, I'm flying off the couch like a mortar; Hoarding powder for that elusive boarder. I'm bombarding the forest with sawdust, Open up the squealer and I'll absorb ya. Kirby the paupers, never mind impostors From monsters to varmints via carnage; I'm taking hostages from a cockpit locked in orbit While you're too busy getting lost on shortcuts Through the forest, like some forgotten tortoise. I dream of beanstalks taller than the tallest, All chopped up as fodder for my fortress; I'll Trojan horse your forces as a florist Then harvest your gardens with ordnance. Ready the warships with torches- It's turnips versus turrets, And my furnace is fuming for your service; No need to be nervous, I'm steady like a surgeon And concern's always been for the toucans. My archers carry shotguns for the turbulence, Your thoughts hang like moss against a blank canvass While mine climbs like vines towards madness; I'll finish this with a sickle And end up myth of the labyrinth. -SLuR

I'll Scuplture
Our lives change in ways we can’t know. What was last year is a fading memory of today. So don’t be afraid that things will never change. There’s a new life, if you want it, down the way. You’re heartbroken and feeling all alone. You talk of doom and gloom and being wronged. Don’t be afraid that things will never change. There’s a new life, if you speak it, down the way. So you think happiness is just for someone else. And that the wonders of life elude your path. Don’t be afraid that things will never change. There’s a new life, if you believe it, down the way. LA Kirby 3/23/10

Passion
‘Where are you going, Sally Ann Now the nights have become so dark, Why do you get so restless, say You want to walk in the park?’ I thought to sit by the fireside Each time that she ventured out, It’s cold and damp by the streetlight lamp, So what was it all about? ‘I need to go where the wind will blow, Feel the damp caressing my cheek, The bracing air is a tonic there, While you sit, and you never speak. It gets so terribly warm in here, I feel I can barely breathe, You sit and enjoy your fireside chair But me, I just have to leave.’ So I’d go and stare out the window Just as she left, my Sally Ann, The thought was crossing my mind just then Was she meeting some other man? The question sat on my lips at times But I thought I’d better not say, If once I questioned my Sally Ann It might just drive her away. I’d watch her stand at the kerbside edge And ponder which way to go, She’d walk by the village of Kirby Ledge Or left, round the bungalow, It happened often she’d cross the road And wander off to the mill, I knew she’d get to the park that way The other side of the hill. One night, the rain it came pelting down I knew she’d be good and wet, I went to the old umbrella stand And thought I could catch her yet, The wind was gusting, the rain blew in, In flurries under my hood, I barely could see the way she’d been, In passing by Farley Wood. I saw the light of a dim-lit torch Flashing under the trees, And wandered over to take a look Though feeling weak in the knees, A woman lay on a groundsheet there Though he had covered her face, I still could see that her limbs were bare And thrashing all over the place. ‘Oh Sally Ann,’ I had sobbed, and ran, While making my way back home, I cursed the folly of coming out, It was better I hadn’t known. Then Sally Ann had opened the door Said ‘Come in out of the rain. I went to walk but I cut it short.’ I flew to her arms again. David Lewis Paget

Hurting people hurt people with words and actions they don’t mean. Lashing out in fear and anger~ Afraid the truth will soon be seen. They hide behind their cutting words and hope no one will see~ The heart inside that’s ever bleeding from pain they fear will always be.                                             LA Kirby                                             10/16/09
