sorry if you’re bored…

hoodoo you think you are?
elder spirits beg to differ
they mock your delusions

laziness is what
separates great people from
the mediocre

infinite love is nice
but i think infinite patience
will be much more useful

music is simply
organized noise to which our
souls will resonate

possibilities
are often bound and gagged by
probabilities

when hiding, take care,
if the search is too hard i
might lose interest

gay, white, closeted man
dating her gay, black son. only
concern?… he’s not jewish.

…

being the inquisitve person i am (and by ‘inquisitive’ i really mean ‘nosy’) i had to follow up on this one. apparently the two young men are doing fine, and after a small adjustment period, the mother has accepted the fact that the man dating her son is not jewish (’ain’t nobody perfect’) and now wholeheartedly supports their bi-racial, homosexual, halfly-secret relationship.

see?… who says ‘ku can’t have a happy ending? and now i can say i have officially met a jewish african american. oy ve!

a basket filled with
tons of weight watchers candy
gotta love parents

diamond set in gold
we strive to please the gods with
artwork made of earth

our self-consumption
trading long term happiness
for short term pleasure

this week’s one single impression prompt is ‘circle’ -
i have always been fascinated by the imagery of the snake
consuming its own tail, and by the negative cyclicality that many of
us can’t/won’t escape within our lives

but i’m also a huge fan of ‘ku recycling, so here are other
circle themed ‘ku from the sorry if you’re bored… archives

…with no forethought (6-8-6)…
…beyond time…
…ancient rings…

standing on sword blades
there is a certain shame in
words and behaviors

decorated shield
mortals only see remnants
of wars in heaven

an ‘issue tree’ is
organized bitching in a
graphical format

(not only was the meeting early this time, but we were
so damn productive that it resulted in TWO ‘ku. that’s twice
the bang for your business-babble buck. i’ll send the bill in the mail…)

we’re ‘touching base’ when
we talk about the same shit
sixty times a day

you gave all the hints
now you are telling me that
i need to back off?!

i’d follow you but
too liquored to be limber
too wasted to care

now there are cows as
well as chicks and bunnies - this
changes the peep wars

(thank god the cows are just some generic knock-off brand…
else there would be total chaos)

not green and don’t care
we like having lots of stuff
disposable souls

too bad poetry
doesn’t flow as easily
as criticism

kindness under stress
creates a karmic wealth with
infinite value

i will be honest…
my intentions may not be
that honorable

i also might have
an ulterior motive…
plan accordingly
