dusk

Racing from the east
as flame devours dry paper
night swallows the land

sinking parallax

The knob rears skywards
eclipsing the landing strip
the vario howls

stress

"You look tanned" he said
and added "you look younger"
"yeah, I got laid off"

cellulase

Lacking four stomachs
'roos must trust commensal worms
to help digest grass

foolish pride

Apes take pride in brains
but, embryologically
they're naught but more gut

official corruption

Lying to congress
caps the campaign to sell us
moral clarity

tough sell

Nixon's PR blitz
never persuaded the proles
that he cherished them

smells like teen spirit

Adolescent rage
pent up without vent or choice
compulsory ed.

humboldt squid

Open a new niche
by killing a predator
monsters will step in

He who controls the news

Wall Street Journal bought:
vast right-wing conspiracy?
Or just class warfare?

botched aerobatics

double helices
traced by paired paragliders
refine the gene-pool

1984 +/-

An eternal foe
is an eternal mandate
to govern by fear

Eleanor Rigby

She waits for a call
that no one will think to make
old and in the way

form trumps function

Friends compare new phones
but neglect to place a call
empty geekery

inter-species variation

Hamsters sleep better
when dosed with Sildenafil
humans get less sleep

PDE-4

If you're a hamster
Viagra cures your jetlag
if you're a human. . .

We, the People

When my government
stands for evil in the world
what is my duty?

tracking assets

RFID chips
bridge tolls and med. Files; Where next?
Subcutaneous?

acting

Sincerity pays
just learn to simulate that
you don't need the rest

uphill PR campaign

Nixon's PR blitz
never convinced those vile scum
that he cherished them

economists and statisticians

A new dirty word
means cherry-picking data
'externalities'

tighter

My climb increases
the blue planet drops away
cranking and banking

derelict in her duties

Speaker Pelosi
gunning for reelection
lacks balls to impeach

this is news?

Vapid news items
fill where the editor yanked
Cheney's heart attack

big Dick

Hard-man dick Cheney
shows a stone-wall to congress
wood to his madam

7/5/07 206miles

Walt's point to Janie's
then land back at lake Diaz
the circuit is closed

impaled

American food
bland fatty knives to the heart
get it on a stick!

Class warfare

Self-righteous bigots
spill the blood of others' sons
and call it "progress"

Slide?

heat wave smites the West
melting resolve like asphalt
my shorts stick to me

disposable troops

One more spokesman lies
Cheney cowers down behind
ranks of hand-puppets
