Cartoon Duck
Always the victim
Of the world
He lives in
Yet loved by those who view him
In the living world
Sometime back I wrote a shadorma titled "Cartoon Man." This one is dedicated . . .

A unique place
Where the fish walk on land
And chickens swim underwater
With ease

Duck Season
Opens on Toon Lake
Cartoon Man
Is ready
His mouth waters for roast duck
Horns grow on his head
Cartoon Duck
Is on full alert
Playing ticks
Scheming plans
Confusing his . . .

Is freedom free?
Nay!
What did it cost?
The
Blood of many brave people
Was the price paid for the freedom we enjoy.
The blood
Of Christ bought our spiritual freedom.

She was a pink dove
Who lived in a green meadow
Where the sky was blue
And the pond full of goldfish
The horses were small
Each of them had golden wings
With coats of light brown
And haloes . . .

Hearts falling from the sky,
Landing into a stormy sea.
Love has told my soul good bye,
Living in pain under a tree
Will this sorrow ever end?
Must I always feel the tiger's claw?
Surely . . .

At times it is hard to write, but I try
With all my heart and much might.
Still my body puts up a fight,
So I struggle for what is right.
My brain is on sudden blink, I put forth . . .

It was long ago
Or it seems that way to me
When I think of Hawk
And his shiny black mustang
We cruised the back roads
Listening to rock music
Gulping down sodas
Never drinking . . .

Bloom inside the pine stump
Within the corpse of death life breathes

Turn thing upside down

Never getting much comfort
From all the mischief

Seahorses
Flew from the ocean
And dwelt
Among the
Clouds above a great city
Known for enchantment
Another shadorma. Maybe I will continue this in the future.

And stood by the river's edge
Looking at the sun
The two discussed the world's fate
And then one morning
Men wearing metal helmets
Riding in canoes

Bouncing
Blue eyes
On the highway
Frozen
By this
Strange majestic site
Moving
Closer in
A form shapes
A
Black cat
With blue eyes
Travels
The roads
During the moonlight . . .

A small tourist town
In the middle of the hills
Stands a bearded man
Sporting a shiny derby
And cowboy boots
Strumming his old worn banjo
Folk music flows through . . .
