People said the turbulent Mr and Mrs Denton
fought nearly every night like cats and dogs
It was no surprise when in the summer of 1977
the wife scratched her husband’s eyes out

At age 27 he saw the White Light
bright like the blazing noonday sun
it blew his mind with expanded consciousness
and he was irrevocably changed forever

Bob Boyd

He hears werewolves howling
outside his cabin in the woods
but he’s not worried about them
just his sons on a full moon night

A relationship with the wrong person
like a curse upon your life
that can be hard to extract yourself from
hopefully before it’s not too late

The guppies in my aquarium
swim blissfully all day long
perhaps when they swim
they experience a fish nirvana

My name is sparrow
although I seem happy and free
many predators are after me
odds are I won’t live a full life

She was a beautiful young woman,
maybe a college student.
When asked if it was okay to
punch someone in the face
with a different political view,
she said yes, it was okay.
I thought to myself, beneath
that beautiful face lurks some
detestable evil that needs to be
psychologically evaluated, and
she became evil and ugly to me.

In 1718 London Bridge is Falling Down
was written, even though the bridge was not.
In 2026 all of London is falling down
overrun with migrants and crime,
knife stabbings in particular.
Citizens are being jailed for tweets,
and London is no longer London.
And instead of the bridge,
London and Great Britain are falling.
And instead of God save the king,
God save the patriots and London
and all of Great Britain.

Peacocks are such beautiful birds
strutting about, their train of
feathers majestically magnificent.
But not to leopards and tigers,
they see peacocks as only food.
What a waste of nature’s beautiful
bird artistry,
reduced to merely meals
for unappreciative predators.

But, thank God, it went bust.
She had an unexpected
reversal of mind about
us getting together,
and I didn’t try to
change her mind back.
No means no, and once a
woman changes her mind
we are through, no rewind.
But to get back on topic,
the Sweden back then
when I almost moved to it
was not the crime ridden,
migrant flooded, tulmultous
Sweden of today, and, thanks
to that Swedish woman, I’m
better off in the USA today.
