Baloney Hi Coos and Faux Cues Number 164 Ma Momtra
Category: Life
The kids scream momma all day long…
We could be having a good time
Without the mama present.
Still…
They begin their meditation momtra
“Momma, momma, momma”
And Dada ego says,
“You got lunch,
There’s no poop in your pants
We’re having a good time
Can you please stop calling mama”
The kids think this is the funniest thing
Dada asking the kids to stop asking
“Mama mama mama mama mama”
“Dada, you’re the silly man
Whose job it is to throw us around,”
The three year old girl says to me
The boy who will turn two
But does not speak
Nods his head in agreement
Then she said,
“Do you really want mama’s job”
I began banging on the pots
We all chanted for mama

Baloney Hi Coos and Faux Cues Number 163
Category: Dreams and the Supernatural
I would rather be simple
And tell simple truths
Oh, that’s a lie…
I love my complications
My confusion amuses me
It keeps me guessing…
I exist somewhere between…
A simplicity and a convolution…
I have a big smile on my face
What’s better than that?

Two fish in seperate bowl
One hungers for love of the other
The other hungers to eat love…
They will die, desiring each other
And they will be happier
Then if they ever actually met

Baloney Hi-Coo’s And Faux Cues Number 163 – The Snowball Effect
Category: Life
I made the snowballs for the kids
They took the snowballs
And threw it at me!
Then they wanted me to fix
The snowballs that broke
When they threw it at me!
“I am not fixing
The snowballs you throw
At my ass
You have to fix your snowballs
And I will make my own
And we will have a fight”
After they stopped crying
They made their own snowballs
Then, we had a snowball fight
After they stopped crying
They made snowballs
And looked for other kids
To have snowball fights with
I sat on the sidelines drinking cocoa

He never gets old
He’s vintage turning antique”

Baloney Hi Coos and Faux Cues Number 161
Category: Food and Restaurants
My freezer is loaded with mistakes
Every now and then I cook bad
I eat a plate of the bad
Then I freeze the leftovers
I never mark the container
It looks like all the others
I just eat it again
When the bullet strikes…
It’s my version of Russian Roulette

Baloney Hi Coos and Faux Cues Number 160
Category: Friends
I like my sketchy “bad people” friends
They laugh at my dark stories
Both the real ones and imagined
I can say anything to them…
But I don’t…
Not because they are square
And would freak out by my humor
Like most of society
But…
Because they can misunderstand
And possibly could kill someone
Because of something funny I said
And then where will I be?
Instead of a dark imaginative writer
I will become a mere journalist
No… no…
I am happy with my day to day
My fantastical happy dark world
Can I help it if…
My biggest most accepting fans
Happen to be people living nightmares
They angrily say to me sometimes
“You gotta get out there more
And become a part of the misery”
I laugh it off, raise my glass
And say.”Salute”
We clink glass, drink and toss

Baloney Hi Coos and Faux Cues Number 159
-Santa’s Street Credibility
Category: Dreams and the Supernatural
If Santa were in the bible
Would that have given him
Even more street credibility?
Kids would have proof he’s real
Santa would have validation
To believe in himself
He would be the bible “good guy”
And if he were in the Old Testament
He’d get the Jewish vote too
Not sure what I was after
Maybe that the bible is…
Up for review
Maybe it needs another edit…
Chris Rock “old school” oral tradition
Or just some weed smoking bowsers
Something, someone light like Santa
