The Rhymes in My Mind

• Dark Angel
• High-fashion Clowning
• Clock on the Counter
• Butterfly Kisses
• Scared
• Compass
• Pandora Box
• Wrong Number: Bee right back
• Seek and Find
• Bogus Utopia
• Cut Me Down
• Optical Shower
• Greenhouse
• Cocoon vs. Core
• Message in a Bottle

Scribble of Riddles

• Happy New Tear
• No Vacancy for Crazy
• High Chair
• Victim Chant
• Whip It

What I reap on the streets is ripe and cheap
No matter the hole, I dig in deep and deep
Spinning hearts and brains to beat
Shuffle the joker, turn the meat

Laboratories revealing half the story
Black and white, nothing to worry
Tried and true recipe
Measured to perfect consistency

Prefer a hippie, a visionary
White coats are too ordinary
Change up the mix
Break down the fix

Fraying at the end
Hanging out to pretend
Turn on the corner
Light up the mourner

Cords around circuits coming loose
Hard-wired, looking for juice
Pull the plug, remove the noose

Poison to tame so many twisted vices
Packed vials and secure devices
An antidote or remedy
Immune to all that is me

Jumping rope with my veins
Jerking all over, stamping a stain
Smiles turned inside out
Stitches ripped to leave a pout

Speechless except for a dribble
Waiting for another nibble
What is recommended daily
Will only end up failing me…
