Prompt: Baby Boxer Funeral Fan (2018?)
"What's an 'antique vintage baby boxer funeral fan?'"
Is the best question I've been asked today.
Obviously I have no clue, although it sounds kind of like a Tom Waits lyric.

Prompt: My Lady derives
Delight
From driving late
at Night
Up mesas sprouting
Churches
We can't see
Without a moon
Past spotted fauns
Grazing on
grasses
Towards a lake landing
in June
Slightly stoned as we
Skip stones
Upon a mirror in
the Night
Ripples radiate
From pin prick light
Nary a flag
in Sight
And while I watch
the Road
My Lay dee tells
me Jokes
Jocular "That's what she said's"
With a nod
to Michael Scott
"That's what they called me
back in high school"
Is another

Slightly less stoned
As we drive home

From the ditch
Dimples rise 'neath
Hazel eyes
And I'm alive
Inside her
Sights

Time once was
One could cradle

These few moments of our
love story
I'd wish to transcend time
Even though
I know
They won't

Prompt: While social norms prevented me from expressing this to any of our nearby revelers, Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament seemed to share much in common with our current American/Geopolitical environment.
Seemingly at random, we were assigned a flag and a card upon entry that told us which knight to whom we would be pledging our allegiance. My party was assigned a red card and red flag to proudly wave. We were also told to root against the green knight and those in his cheering section who were waving green flags in support of his victory. Furthermore, our King and Queen told us we weren't to trust the green knight or his supporters. When the red and green knights ended up being the last two engaged in battle, us and our fellow Reds were all chanting "Red Knight! Red Knight!" and gleefully rooting for the obliteration of the green knight. Why? Because, like I said, this is what we were instructed to do. Clearly, the fate of all that is good and decent depended upon it.
Yes, it was much like politics (or wrestling... or futbol americano) and the bloodlust that accompanies it. We could have just as easily been arbitrarily assigned to root for the green knight to obliterate the red knight.
God save the King and Queen!
Prompt: If you haven't read any of my recent posts on the matter, Yes, I bounced early from rehab, holed up for four days in an ABQ motel for a Glorious Final Bender, then jumped in an uber to the train station and jumped on a train to Los Angeles to move back in with my parents in Torrance, CA. I'm two-and-a-half months sober and have gained like 25 pounds on account of a strict diet of burgers, SoCal-style Mexican food, french fries, and all manner of ice cream.
To paraphrase George Costanza, "Hi, my name is Jeff. I'm unemployed and car-less and I live with my parents." It's cool, though, 'cuz I'm plotting my sudden ascent at 50 years old into Professional Poetry Peddler.
Prompt: I think the Melania film would have been more successful had Werner Herzog directed it and Faye Dunaway had played her. Also, Merzbow should have done the soundtrack.
Prompt: I don't expect to return to Raton until sometime in the Summer or Fall. But when I'm back, I'd like to start a Narcotics Anonymous group. We already have an AA group in town, but if there's an NA group I don't know about it. If you'd like to get such a group started in advance of my return to Raton, feel free to do so!
Prompt: Guilloteenager Of The Year. An Old Wild West wooden Hangman platform with scaffolding and stairs looms above a proud looking teenage boy who smiles broadly while carrying a bouquet of flowers while wearing a tiara and sash over his suit jacket with letters on it reading "Guilloteenager Of The Year."
Prompt: Kali, the 8-armed, severed head-carrying Hindu Goddess of Destruction waits in a long line at the supermarket, looking bored and distracted as she is surrounded by arguing kids and Moms and Dads and weird uncles.
Prompt: A monk is engulfed in flames, wearing an orange robe and sitting cross-legged performing meditation on a blue mat, in the middle of a parking lot, with cars, trucks, and SUVs parked around. In the background a large truck is engulfed in flames and billowing thick, black smoke into the air. The monk is bald, his eyes closed, and his hands are open with palms facing upwards resting on his knees. The sky is bright blue and clear around the smoke. The monk also wears a gray sneakers.
Prompt: A Buddhist Monk sits in lotus pose among cars and pick ups trucks in the parking lot of a Walmart. He is meditating silently and without a muscle moving and he is engulfed in furious flames.
Prompt: 50 days sober tomorrow, y'all. You'd hardly recognize me. My complexion is clear. I don't look like a person turning 50 in seven weeks. Today I'm 49 days sober at age 49, and I don't look a day over 55.
Prompt: "My Icarus Friend"
My friend left today
For blessed Ukraine
Nothing left to live for
For Usefulness he'd die
Wife and kid dead sixteen years now
Sister's dead to him while alive
We spent some time on exercise bikes
Hitting our vape pens, sharing our likes
I told him he could be a
Character Actor
I'd imagine the film version of shared moments
Thought bubbles emerging from the head
Of my character
Model Mom, forceful father
More like a roommate or maybe a brother
The scar on his forehead said
there was more to the story
Like a blackened bruise on a piece of fruit
Destined for the trash
Fifty Five years old
Still a warrior
My mother's coming out in me
Still a worrier
Maybe he'll do paperwork
Maybe he'll die on the front lines
It's not for me to judge
But I'll miss him like one of mine
My heart pumps red ambivalence
My brain's antennae whines
My heart just wants a beer
Don't have the stomach for red wine
Scott "King" James was his name,
All due respect, my man
Scott James you're remembered
By the ledger by the land
Prompt: It's late Fall HERE&NOWinRATON,NM, and the heat isn't working at the lovely Isabel Castillo Performance Arts & Events Center. So dress warm (Ugly Sweater?) and Bring Your Own Whatever. The event is free, but bring some cash because some of these local Ratonian and Trinidadian Poets might have books of their poetry to sell. So far confirmed is Trinidad poet Darek Thomas and Raton poets Padma THRO(W)NeLiAr(sic) & Jeff McLean (aka Your New Favorite Poet, who will also be MCing/DJing the event and performing with James Cordova in the debut of their brand spanking new band CONDITIONAL DADDY LOVE). Contact Jeff if you'd like to read poetry, do some Stand Up Comedy, sing some songs, perform with your band, juggle chainsaw sculptures, or Mime a Rock Opera. There *MAY* be time for some Open Mic Whateverness, depending on CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE SIMULATED REALITY WITHIN WHICH WE ABIDE

Prompt: Dementia is just going ahead and opening the door to the bathroom and walking inside and turning to talk to the man sitting upon the toilet, mid -poop, who had - moments ago, when you knocked - told you that THIS is exactly what you would encounter if you walked into this bathroom. But, yes, I understand that you need to know what this "paper" you are holding (the TV remote control) can do to help "these kitties" (there is one cat here) get you some food. And, yes Miss Jeannie, I promise to help you with that just as soon as I get the opportunity to wipe my butt, flush the toilet, and wash my hands...
