beer: the drink of kings,
and of wife-beaters who drink
carlsberg special brew.

He wore no shoes when
he tilled the rice paddies--
got cut-worms and died.

The pandas danced
on his grave, because they wanted
mu-shu, not moo-goo.

After a car crash
Police and medics put limbs
Into a bucket.

The black hoarse hearses
Make barely a sound apart
From the gravel's crunch.

From the gravel's crunch,
the breaking of a snail's shell
makes hardly a sound.

Snow blurs all the signs
and I know I am now lost:
never sled alone.

The tandem snowboards
Weave at random down the half-
Pipe; grabbing hand on

For huge aerial
Abandon - then wipe out and
Double crash land 'em.

Two flyers in a bi-plane -
