humble Anchorage
an ill wind blows this evening
casting forth disease.

illness in the wind
as the seasons change with time
blight is our reward.

nobody knows why
it has always been this way
changing weather's gift.

this week a cold snap
a cold in more ways than one
sick folks everywhere.

finally it's my turn
I've avoided it so long
now my time has come.

Rachel, I love you
but
your room
is a dungeon of slobbiness.

when it comes to peace
anti-war protesters are...
completely hopeless.

they think we want war.
what they fail to realize
is that we want peace.

we tried the UN
for over a dozen years.
Saddam laughed it off.

inspectors thrown out
video feeds were cut off
ordered by Saddam.

WMDs
used by Saddam on his own,
Halabja, Iraq.

Liberals are blind
and also quite forgetful
of world history.

Palestinians
went to the polls and voted
for terrorism.

they could have chose life
instead they voted for death
they'll reap what they sow.

Iraq, however,
has a glimmer of a chance
a faint, faint glimmer.

Iraqi madmen
blowing themselves up for God
at least they think so.

Nuclear Iran
does not sound like a good thing
to those who love peace

Hoo, that dude is fat!
who keeps feeding him in bed?
his wife does, that's who.

Why doesn't she stop
giving in to his demands?
he can't leave the bed!

If he can't leave bed
his power cannot extend
beyond his arm's reach.

Its all in the mind-
big man and enabler
sadly, both are trapped.

In the end he dies,
it could end no other way-
tragic conclusion.

lukiki the cat
his tail flicks angrily
when I pick him up.

blue eyes, dark grey face
a light grey coat adorns him
ears pointing back.

he complains in vain
I pick him up anyway
and he hisses back.

On the evening news
another lawyer singing,
pleading for mercy.

"Crack addict  victim"
or so the attorney says.
does he believe it?

that ain't no victim.
the user using the used,
abusing the law.

lawyer and client-
meet the two real crack house boyz,
hustlin' the public.

the lawyer gets paid
from the crack man's vast fortune,
made from selling crack..

 the cruel cold sea,
consuming the innocent
native whaling crew

tragedy struck hard.
a villiage grieves for its lost,
loved ones remembered.

 I like to write code,
not object oriented-
proceedural stuff.

Once there was Allaire.
and then Macromedia,
and now Adobe.

Cougar sits atop
our well-worn, comfortable couch
as I peck the keys.

Winter wonderland
House of eternal boredom
or a bit of both.

I try to learn Perl-
trickier than Cold Fusion,
less than Java, though.

children say "I'm bored."
adults get bored too, you know.
nothing on TV.

eighty-one years old,
she has a bleed in her head,
that's what's on TV.

"Police Videos"
coming on at eleven.
that's entertainment!

stupid knuckleheads,
they always lose in the end.
it's still fun to watch.
