Zucchini Flower Power

TRY STUFFING THESE

Smokin’ morsels in your mouth

And smite that friggin' junk

Food beast forever.

Rejuvenation

Rejoice, I say—

Myriad honey

Bees sucking

Myrtle flowers!

A hearty Vazambam welcome to Old 333 aka Peter Greene, a poet who comes to us from Canada. Thanks, Peter for deciding not to jump into the yawning abyss!

Undying Source of Immortality

—after a comment by William Michaelian

Mortal, whatever

It must be,

It can’t have sprung

From something

That has nothing

To do with those

Who live forever within

The space of a single,

Undefined moment—

It has to be

More than that.

Bridge over Troubled Water (Reader's Digest Version)

Dear Paul

Simon and Art

Garfunkel:

For the sad-eyed crooner that was

Croaking on

The calm

Surface of the water

Before the turtle that spied him

From the depths shot up to snap

Him in two, for lack

Of your more heartrending

Drawn-out rendition, this abridged

One will have to do.
