Today I learned some
Fashion sense about –
The five types of bums –
And the underwear
That best cover them

Notes to this poem…
Grey and white clouds –
Sun burned and pure –
Dirty and clean –
Man and God made

Notes to this poem…
In life –
Love means everything –
In tennis –
Love means nothing –
I love tennis –
In life

Notes to this poem…
Do learning new
Computer languages –
Make me more
Multilingual?
Technically?

Notes to this poem…
I posted a nude selfie –
With me giving the finger –
But with my face all covered –
In many symbolic ways –
That was how I dealt with my
Employer’s stupid request –
To censor myself online!

Notes to this poem…
Sign, sign –
Everywhere a sign –
But none of the literal kind –
Only metaphorical signs –
Which are only in my mind –
But those are my favourite kind!

Notes to this poem…
Neither stars –
Nor shooting stars –
Were visible tonight –
They were hidden behind –
Perseus’ clouded mind

Notes to this poem…
To grow
As an individual –
I must do more
As an individual –
Unhindered by others on teams –
Who aren’t up to my standards

Notes to this poem…
Some people have
A sparkle in their eyes –
But she –
She has three –
One from her eyes –
One from her soul –
And one from her
Personality

Notes to this poem…
A Chinese saying is –
I hear and I forget –
I see and I remember –
I do and I understand –
I try to understand –
Hear, see or do whenever I can –
Making it easier to remember –
Harder to forget –
And always to appreciate

I don’t care why
You like my art –
I just care that
You like my art

How many ways –
Can something be drawn?
As many ways –
As there’s folks drawin’
