The Gherkin Conger ~ Monday, October 13, 2025

Disagree to agree to disagree
ignorant bloody apes are people who
seem unable to make a concession
argue just to argue, who seek the grey
gray wolves, ravenously hungry, in packs
remain more ecological than whey
environmental methane waste, fission
enters the atmosphere with sunlight rays

terrible to work with idiots, Sox
of course, all the way, stay away from fools

ask less, duplicitous doppelgänger
gherkin, cucumber pickle, silver eels
real time zucchini, unchic, eel conger
empty jars to fill in medias res
eggs, pickled eggs, from the beginning, eggs

transform the dialogue to stay on top
open the door, Uncle Nepo, the mist

darkness, deep down, at the bottom, the crags
influence affluence, absurd power
sleeps deep beneath the sea, black oil on tap
arguments awaken the cuckoo's nest
green eggs, disagreeable for breakfast
recall the weirdness, perfectly oval
egregious mistakes, live and learn, move on
exact revenge, bad idea, waste of time

apes are bloody, ignorant people, win
precious time in a war, with humans lame
exit the weirdness, left behind, go west

Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge ~ Friday, May 30, 2025

Professor Miłosz answered my question reserved with but one word, 'Daimonion' obligations to respond to students forgave him for reflux indigestion ever more witty than a Cheshire cat such a response like peeling an onion strange to hear what inspires a profound sense of history and philosophy, deep rivers flow to offer one time at bat Moments come and evaporate, to seize in my youth the mystery of being łodzianin , The Promised Land , a breeze of less than fresh air blows mortals fleeing socialism into the deepest sleep ziemia obiecana , what does this mean answers in his History unfold time nothing escapes Polish Literature save for the Catastrophe , the unseen wisdom, impossible to grasp, then guides experience through right and wrong, as crime removes the stain of corruption, unsure existentialists adopt Marxism despite the deep divide taking both sides music to post-Stalinist ears, the Thaw yet, thirty-five years later, with the Fall questions of ...

σωφροσύνη ~ Tuesday, June 24, 2025

ὁρίζων κύκλος Not every book I pick up is worthwhile only the ones that make me smile, I read the whole feed from start to finish, I wish every book ran with me mile after mile verily, I read what I can, I scan each week, the shelves at the bookstore, the need readily without argument to dish yet another novel, hell-bent with lust burning a hole in my wallet, a fan of world literature, there is no cure only snake oil, the quackery of fraud kill me before blindness makes my mind pure Imagine, I could fly with just a gust picks me up off the ground but loaded down in my backpack, a library, the wind cannot lift this flying squirrel, quarrel kindly, or not at all, so small and brown under the weight of the world, an ocean presents schools of fish as knowledge, rescind intelligence for ignorance, barrel stock full of dill pickles, to munch and crunch worth the sea in salt, is it all my fault or as bananas travel in a bunch reasons become black and blue by default travel on occasion makes e...

The Ascendant ~ Tuesday, July 1, 2025

I am in no way, shape, or form a lamb a lion, a wolf, or a hawk, a snake maybe but I agree with just one claw in the air, raised high to the sky, a clam not so fast, my life might not last so long not so long as others, just a half-baked old world hare-brained pipe dream to break the law work until I die, no retirement scheme ask for help, assistance, play a sad song yet, what do I care, already I feel so tired, this life, so absurd, I try how I try to make sense, nothing is real arbitrary, intangible, I cry pitiful tears in pain, explain the dream explain mythology, explain science objects to structure the chaos in mind restructure history, present the lies facets on a diamond, adjust the fence old tariffs raised, raise prices, raise the bar raze past events, the truth as lies, I find maybe buried in a shallow grave, spies ancient forms of oppression, I present language as a tool to describe the scar ask me not to perform a miracle millions will seek a cure, a ...
