"noggin" poems
I see you, monster... In your sockets bore dead, dark eyes They hold the blackest of stares Nebulous swirling pits of demise Thin lips would spout the most sibilant of hisses Every so often would curl into a snarl Dry and chapped, almost unworthy of kisses Large, rough snout, jutting out like a crag You sniff around tirelessly for easy targets Preying on the unsuspecting minds of those under your flag Tapering chin, sprouting strands of coarse hair Unkempt and gritty from your last meal Decaying teeth, crooked due to little to no care Your face is cratered; tales of trying adolescent years Wearing a face only a mother could love Expressionless but it screams out your fears Ugly jointed limbs that grew out of sync Disproportionate, misshapen, grotesque Little noggin with sparse hair, packed within, a brain that thinks I hear you, monster... As you stalk your sleepless nights Nocturnal ambience be your playground Lurking in the dark; places with no light Bulky, heavy feet but deft and silent Can barely notice when you're up and about As if cloaked yourself stealthy, with steps ever transient Respire you do, exhaling breaths so gnarly Ingesting good air, converting into fervid, loathsome notions With which you paint a portrait so ghastly I feel you monster... Deep within the recesses of my heart Destroying and distorting all that was pure Testing my will till I should fall apart You're but the twisted manifestation of conscience Feeding on my trials and nurturing them into vile abominations I despise that of you but I seem to have developed dependence I see you, monster... You're horrid and beastly, an embodiment of absolute horror I await the day that you would finally dissolve For I am weary of seeing you staring back in the mirror

Jackal in his church pants, Bad kid with punk jams, Cramming nonsense in his conscience, Skateboarding prophets, Dividing light into chambers, Bag of **** for his neighbors, Turned into a living demon bleeding thru the paper, Applesauce in the inside, A coconut shell for the front, Pineapple knives for the slaughtering, Right into a strawberry's gut, He was not a normal scorned, occulting youth, But the lore of a regretful teen plaguing the afternoons, Till that strawberry gut cracked his coconut noggin, And shall he rest in bygones and Hanna-Babara monsters,

Kaleidoscopic Turkey ****
A monster came out from under my bed, all hairy and ugly and oh so red. He ran to my closet and ate all my clothes then back to my bed he was tickling my toes. I was so afraid he might suddenly eat me, There was nowhere to go where he couldn’t see. He threw all my toys in a great big sack And told me meanly they’d never be back. Then he looked at my desk and suddenly smiled And seemed to be happy or maybe beguiled. He looked in my eyes and pointed at me, “give me your laptop and I will let you be” I loved my laptop a gift from my mom I stared in his eyes feeling so dumb. I was no longer scared now I was mad, Monsters aren’t fun when they behave so bad. So I took out my bat and put on my new shoes and said to the monster, “guess what you lose”. One swat on the noggin and he was out cold I keep my toys because I was bold. It pays to be brave and never have fear But be careful at night when a monster is near. HAPPY LATE HALLOWEEN to my Grandaughters Copyright Jan/2014 WHC

My Monster
# *The Muse of Whimsy has arrived.   I really feel the need To take a break from poignant and my impish humor feed. A silly prank's in order so I'll leave some noggin bear By filling up their shampoo bottle with a cup of hair removal "Nair". I'll put a rubber hot dog in some hungry knot head's bun. Watching his expression should be worth a lot of fun. Humiliation is a blast when dignity is lost. If someone's feelings are the price. well then it's worth the cost. Somebody always loses if your heart is made of stone Laughter is contagious but leave well enough alone. Compassion is the brakes you use when things get out of hand. Laugh, but pass the laughter on then most people will understand.* #

HAMLET AT THE WORLD CUP
To a Louse by Robert Burns translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch Hey! Where're you going, you crawling hair-fly? Your impudence protects you, barely; I can only say that you swagger rarely Over gauze and lace. Though faith! I fear you dine but sparely In such a place. You ugly, creeping, blasted wonder, Detested, shunned by both saint and sinner, How dare you set your feet upon her— So fine a lady! Go somewhere else to seek your dinner On some poor body. Off! around some beggar's temple shamble: There you may creep, and sprawl, and scramble, With other kindred, jumping cattle, In shoals and nations; Where horn nor bone never dare unsettle Your thick plantations. Now hold you there! You're out of sight, Below the folderols, snug and tight; No, faith just yet! You'll not be right, Till you've got on it: The very topmost, towering height Of miss's bonnet. My word! right bold you root, contrary, As plump and gray as any gooseberry. Oh, for some rank, mercurial resin, Or dread red poison; I'd give you such a hearty dose, flea, It'd dress your noggin! I wouldn't be surprised to spy You on some housewife's flannel tie: Or maybe on some ragged boy's Pale undervest; But Miss's finest bonnet! Fie! How dare you jest? Oh Jenny, do not toss your head, And lash your lovely braids abroad! You hardly know what cursed speed The creature's making! Those winks and finger-ends, I dread, Are notice-taking! O would some Power with vision teach us To see ourselves as others see us! It would from many a blunder free us, And foolish notions: What airs in dress and carriage would leave us, And even devotion! One Sunday while sitting behind a young lady in church, Robert Burns noticed a louse roaming through the bows and ribbons of her bonnet. The poem "To a Louse" resulted from his observations. The poor woman had no idea that she would be the subject of one of Burns' best poems about how we see ourselves, compared to how other people see us at our worst moments.

Our consciousness is often conjured in the noggin the way pompously-starved college kids microwave Ramen: phenomen- ally over-heated and eaten up unbelievably quick, wow, you’re a genius, now you can hurry back to completing your awesome thesis! Neatness! But having burned your tongue, you vilely cursed inside with words rougher than *** not knowing where they were from, and flustered, said you were done; plus, **** it, this work is dumb. Oh, freshman, if only you had savored dem noodles!

A Ramen Noggin
Not since the days of shooting ****** into the artery in my armpit (too many blown out veins in my arms and feet), have I spent multiple nights pacing and sweating….. **** you simple carbohydrates. – In the first months of being a non-cigarette smoker I would see folks light up and near instantly collect a chilled film on my back and fingernails… forget about it; but the other day I drove by a pizzeria and had thoughts of ski masks and 45 caliber pistols… **** you simple carbohydrates. – Once upon a time I drank near 200 ounces of Mountain Dew each and every day. If I missed a day, I would have massive headaches combined with serious irritation; while it has been more than 5 years since this body ingested caffeine, last night I could not fall asleep for anything and no amount of cannabis oil or ibuprofen had the ability to curb my aching noggin…. **** you simple carbohydrates – change is the only constant and humanity has evolved amazing adaptability while I know I will be fine at this moment only one thing really runs through my head: **** you simple carbohydrates! –

same life, different addiction
Every employee's name was listed in the address field Except for one The one I never noticed That we never noticed We all marched into the meeting room as ordered Found the CEO on an extra tall stage To tell us "Today is Emma McGurk's last day But she says it's the first day Of her tenure As Director of Forecasting of Unintended Consequences She's not going So I need all of you, all 300 of you, To help me terminator." (Or was that terminate her?) So we gave each other Brady Bunch nods I had to look up to make eye contact (or is that I contact?) with superiors Then we marched to The cubicle of Emma McGurk Me remembering what Santa Ana had said: "With a few hundred more men like the San Patricios, Mexico would have won the battle." And the battle wasn't to be won by us It was to be won by Emma McGurk The CEO tried to move her Ten of us tried to move her Then one hundred And then all three hundred Even I made an effort But she wouldn't budge So we had to move... To another building Hearing that Emma McGurk was still ensconced In the position existing only in her noggin Until finally the old building had to be imploded A fifth-grader winning the honor of triggering That dusty downfall of Emma McGurk's cubicle And the building that sheltered it It wasn't until Signing Day Eve That I saw her again Pouring ink at a haiku-con "The pay wouldn't be that bad," she told me. "If it was by the snicker instead of the word."

Will an eligible bloke happier be if he Marries a ranking *ele like Miss Universe With all her glory and graces, and 'cause Of marriage mirth? Will a sheila pretty An unbroken regalement have for a dream Prince Charming--the fairy man of her whim? Will the soul be jolly for the sophomore More than for the frosh rapture of success Had in the Ivy League of cosmic business, When the heart cut a caper and an encore Of hilarity requests of narrowed life-- To have constant binge in lieu of strive? What man is wholly from trouble free, whose Being be to sadness inured? Within, the Spokes do sometimes snap at the rotary Wheels of serenity, and chaos is let loose. What thus can stay the pillars of pleasure in A plagued world is above this little noggin.

I used to hear the word "Holy..." And immediately, Ratman or Bobbin would lamely Limp into my mind. 1960s Shtick Shtuck in my Noggin, until... I met a Holy Man Whose name means Either "Asleep" or "Wild Man" Anyhoo, He was/is/ From just past Detroit Cross the Border, Bordering Cross. He spoke of the HOLY SPIRIT That part of God Who Which Communicates with us And us, HIM... Of an unquenchable FIRE that yearned, Burned Churned in the hearts of His Children. His smile was wide, His eyes, shining, but... But his words soon after (Were not his own) Not natural, but SUPERNATURAL From the Great I AM. The Lord Jesus Christ Spoke inside this man's Heart, Soul, Mind, Body- Spirit Holy. his (HIS) words (WORD) Were written in Indelible ink Upon the surface Of my (sinful) Human heart. We Had never met before Our paths (Crossed) But he knew, He Had a VISION. He shared it with me. Now when I hear "Holy..." I no longer think of That common Red- Breasted avian creature, but The man whose Breast and Heart were on Holy Cleansing Fire, That burns brightly Still

Holy Spirit, Batman!
This morning, I stepped on a landmine. I tried using a twig to clean each line, I spent a while, a very very long time, Using a twig to depoop the very bottom Of my shoe, & my dog thought, (Got'em.) So as he's laughing at my bad situation I used my noggin and vented frustration. Found his brush & he stopped rollin' As I scraped away what was holdin' Fast to my left shoe. The moment; golden.

Stepped On A Landmine
The myriad of possibilities enliven my ******** semantics somewhere to go when my slippers tell me not to The words that i exhale are the engine that fuels imagination something to sustain when my noggin is void The vibrancies that rattle me attribute to the found experience somehow they strum when my heartstrings are mute The mountains that topple me serve demise to my slippery friends someways i have adapted now i listen to blue boots

You say you're having problems With both family and friends Let's see if we can boil this down Now where do we begin No sense in pussyfooting If we're to get right to the truth By my calculations The common denominator is you If it's you that is the problem Then the solution is the same So let's start working in that noggin And come up with a plan Perhaps a whole new attitude A softening of heart A loosening of the chains of blame Would be the place to start If you feel they're out to get you Before you draw weapons to defend Search first for the problem Because it might come from within

The Problem Is You
I got this idea I'd write you a poem, One you could read sitting safely at home, Or keep with you, out and about while you roam. Some kind of impassioned ballad, Celebrating all the things I held sacred, A mirror to illuminate this sky that I’ve painted. So I laced up my heart, and I shrugged on my soul, I popped open my noggin, and I went for a stroll, Right down Memory Lane, and left at the Rabbit Hole. I kept on 'til I hit a velvet rope with posts of brass, But I musta gotten too close to the bulletproof glass, 'Cause a big grumpy guard threw me out on my... I realized, still rolling, it's all one massive museum, Motionless memories mummified so I can keep 'em, Lined up and locked away, as if they could be stolen. Arduously ordered—organized for instant access, A mental palace fit to make Sherlock get jealous, That Dewey Decimal dude's got nothin' on this. The slides replay every minute on the minute, Time-compressed, Tetrised-in, so each moment fits, Laser light shows engraving insignias inside my eyelids. Tear-rusty gears grinding waterlogged cogs in reverse, This melancholy machine, made to reflect you in verse, Portrays a planetarium, perpetually projecting my universe.

Gone
With my friends, I goose-stepped down a dingy street, us all chomping down on pigs’ feet meat My wet ears, inexperience glistening, opened up to the city eagerly listening Heard orders for ****** and boy toys which, essentially, created walls of white noise Found my way onto a queen-sized lump of trash and determined it a quality place to crash Woke up suddenly to find the third eye of my mind permanently blind Watched my body plunge into the absolute abysmal solely due to a habit of feeling terribly dismal Started painting an accurate portrait of daily life using the ornate hues of continuous strife Made a recipe for misery with some sassafras and a dab of the other side’s greener grass It wasn’t until I chomped down on a half-finished Baby Ruth that my noggin’ tuned into the truth Turns out, birds of a feather are held together by the absolute weakest of tethers

Dumpster Dove
Impulsive drones, these machos you have flimflammed, Wolfing your proportionality like a **** brewed nectar of grapes, When flimsy limb frills no more interweave, expertise reprogrammed, Are you the lone from infinite frames murmuring, “once more, he escapes”? Indignation ******* broadcasted, ferocity wrought into the fiber, Prior, where narcissistic pathway architecture once lodged aloft, Calloused acknowledgement of her duffel, abrupt pang, necessity for a prescriber, My mettle is feeble of the soap opera, hanging one’s topper in my breath, I coughed, The cauldron perpetually gurgling with spume, mingling itself, Gyrating with giddiness as if my noggin was a top trinket, No dust crumbs in any bustle ever jubilated atop my pit-a-patting instrument’s Masses are anticipating for my enveloping blanket, I perhaps beam till the cattle wham the timepiece, though seldom do I chuckle, Shall journey with the ensuing waft, no comma for a buckle.

Expiry is a Final Activation.
We can sense it. Something deplorable is about to happen-- we can no longer stop the ranks of housebroken infidels from migrating into the wild they have never encountered beyond photo and film. It's coming out! The stampede of hairy-legged pheromones we could once browbeat into prepubescent shame with the speed of a smack upon the tender noggin! It takes courage to enjoy the canned campfire stories we passed off as ageless doctrine. How they once recoiled, squirming like slugs thrown in a salt mine! Now the writhing is self-inflicted, the sweat off their brows no longer cold, damp beads but now welcome lubrication that slithers down their lecherous masses of flesh! Despite our most dogmatic toiling, the iron shroud has revealed itself as a featherweight curtain within a few tugs. Anyone else feel the walls shake to and fro? Why does the water in that glass ripple so? Has it arrived already? The end of our reign as dictators of the prevailing value system? Fetch thee the community smelling salts! Too late! The young and vulnerable have already begun to trample! Push the powder out of your wigs to blind yourself from the carnage! *The Age of Inhibition has screeched and skidded into its evil twin's Renaissance. Big time sensuality has straddled the saddle, too busy racing avenues to declare victory.*
