" Well, Maybe "...

" Well, Maybe "

Well, maybe
in a couple of takes
at the big-boy table

scattered with crayons
during zany comic play
on placements
up until middle age
way back in the day

being tempered and tamed
by close shaves
goofily entertaining
unfit for the stage
where only the mad
are truly sane

replete with considerable amazement
becoming dense with information
likened to outbreaks of contagion
from fly-on-the-wall observations

high-stress sintuations
left salivating
in man caves...

" Sealing Fates "...

" Sealing Fates "

Sealing fates
under
no obligation

decades later
after exchanges
with hands raised

while mapping brains
by scanning
uncharacteristic shapes
in distinct combinations

making unprecedented peeks
into internal inquiries
of preserved "shift" keys
for surging or suffering

like linchpin links
to virtual-reality
militant mouse clicks

proliferating
for instance
as not-quite-so-hip
opportunist gigs...
