The assignment was to place Huckleberry Finn in modern day New York and write a short story. I was a high school kid in the 80s and only spent a few field trips in New York. Of course, I watched many TV shows and I did have my imagination. Mr. V didn’t cotton to me. I was aContinue reading “BEASTLY BUT BEAUTIFUL (flash fiction(?))”

YOU CAN LIE TO ME
You can lie to me. That’s okay. I’ll probably figure it out and no one will really get hurt. But you keep lying to yourself and that’s really an emotional and psychic cancer. But like a portrait of Dorian Gray in the attic, you’ll keep the deterioration hidden from view. You know the cancer is spreading but it isn’t visibleContinue reading “YOU CAN LIE TO ME”

JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO DO POETRY AGAIN
I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by blandness MTV spoken word tour; sewn up vaginas; dismembered penises, poetry slams featuring dickless, cuntless verse spewed by genderless eunuchs all in the name of advancing pop culture for lamebrained, gutless pansies trying to rap out poems to the underage audiences running around pretending it’sContinue reading “JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO DO POETRY AGAIN”
STAG FILM
It’s official! I’ve transitioned from getting old to being old. I was at a bachelor party watching a stag film. Everyone was hootin’ & hollerin’ over the action on the screen. I was sitting there, incredulous look (I suspect) on my face thinking, “Damn! That position can’t be comfortable.” https://www.postpoems.org/authors/fuche_bu/poem/1062387
CHOKE THE CHICKEN (AUTO-EROTIC ASPHYXIATION GONE HORRIBLY WRONG)

IRIDESCENT JEWELS
Iridescent jewels lay buried deep within the soul waiting to be excavated. I struggle for the pure stream of consciousness as twisted ideas rampage through my mind. I recklessly splatter and sprinkle words across the page in mock rhythmic cadence. It’s been suggested in some circles that I am a poet. https://www.postpoems.org/authors/fuche_bu/poem/1066478 JUST WHEN YOUContinue reading “IRIDESCENT JEWELS”
