Alliteration, anyone?

Milquetoast
monkeys masquerading
as mouthy, magnanimous
mannequins, messaging mundane myths
to mankind, melancholy macro metaphors
and meandering maxims meaningful
to munificent muggles
manifesting methodical
masochism.

Tranquility

Small,
rocky stream
emits tranquil sounds
that soothes the visitor.
No horns, bleating cell phones,
loud marching orders or
blaring TV commercials.
Truly, it's
heaven.

Crinkle, Kris!

The
Gingerbread Man
wanted to surprise
Santa on Christmas Eve.
by poking his patoot with
a striped candy cane.
That surely will
make Kris
crinkle!

An apt ending point

A
once-empty
page stares from
the computer screen as
words tumble in a waterfall
of gushing verbiage. Only
way to quell
the flow . . .
quit.
