Mandatory fun
must I drink coffee
if I hate to speak
like a dry ground and the streets
full of wine
Cheerful poems
Cheerful poems — a collection of the best works on Poemship.
Rowdy
Friday bar ilk
on the highway
high din
Influencer
in summer’s mad wisdom
setting sail is better
than a bad birth
and see how this road
takes notice of you
a Zen merchant singing
for the company
The next supper
wake us to ourselves o cook
my belly is a church
bell ringing to eat
by Jesus our supper
Leaves of gas
in bull weather
we are mistaken for horses
deep as drunken scholars
in the grass
enough for all
the conversation that lives
Earworm
morning star
a bird whistle
I shall have in my ear
all day
Good morning
morning and I believe I may be
going to sea in a tub
going to see
a king be a king
or at least
singing in the garden
longing to see my wife
Brain washing
on washing day
I overhear a woman
talk of it costing nothing
to try on different minds
at which all
the company laughed
but I was troubled and bought
a couple of lobsters
Devotee
a head full of desire
is holy with play
my eyes want to go out
and my doubt mutinies
amen said
I own the treasury
Head cleaner
examining my accounts
I employ a girl
to comb my head
no angers
mining my head
I slept
Performative
on a committee
I am myself
a whistler at burning love
my little glass
much bigger in society
to live in a mighty hand
as long as my eyes
endure me and my
performance of repute
Tycoon
all morning I act the part
of an old head
full of business
in no mind to play
what I am
fat rat
