INSANE WEATHER, ANOTHER POEM FROM MY BOOK 3

ABOUT TEN O:CLOCK, THE RAIN WAS COMING DOWN SIDEWAYS. tHE WIND WAS HOWLING JUST LIKE IN A CHEAP HORROR MOVIE. THE CORRIGATED METAL ELECTRIC GARAGE DOORS WERE MAKING ALL KINDS OF NOISES AS THE WIND MADE THEM MOVE IN A MUSICAL RHYTHM. I COULD HEAR WATER DRIPPING FROM THE CEILING, BUT I COULDNT FIND WHERE IT WAS COMING IN. THE DRIVEWAY OUTSIDE THE FRONT DOOR LOOKED MORE LIKE A RIVER.
I FIGURED WE WOULDNT EVEN GET ONE CUSTOMER....ALL DAY, SO MAYBE, I SHOULD CALL OFF THE DAY...EVERYONE SHOULD GO HOME. WHY WASTE HEAT AND LIGHT?
BUT TO MY SURPRISE, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS RAINING AND THE WIND GUST HIT 60MPH, WE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE....THE CRAZIES CAME OUT....MISHSHUGENA MONDAY? WE EVEN MADE TWO SALES....AND EVEN GLEN IN MAHWAH DID 200. YOU NEVER KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ONE YOUNG COUPLE CAME IN, ...THEY WERE FRIENDLY.....THEY ASKED THE BEST PRICE ON A VERY NICE DRESSER THAT WAS PRICES 375, i SAID THEY COULD HAVE IT FOR 300....THEY OFFERED ME 100. I SUPPOSED THAT IS ALL THE MONEY THEY HAD, AND I WASNT ANGRY...BUT TOLD THEM I WOULD GIVE THEM 100 FOR SIMILAR DRESSERS IF THEY OCULD BRING THEM IN FOR ME...THEN THE GIRL GOT A BIT BITCHY AND SAID," I CANT JUSTIFY SPENDING 300 DOLLARS FOR MASS PRODUCED FURNITURE" I DIDNT ARGUE WITH HER, BUT i EXPLAINED IT COSTS 100 TO TO GO OUT AND PICK ONE OF THEM UP.....

THAT WAS THE HIGHLITE OF THE DAY...ONE LADY BENT DOWN AND GOT UP TOO FAST AND BNGED HER HEAD ON A COAT RACK....OTHER WISE.....THE DAY WAS VERY BORING...NO REDICULOUS PHONE CALLS...EXCEPT THERE WAS ONE FROM INDIA.... YES, YOU KNOW, THE OUTSOURCING PEOPLE.... ONE OF MY CREDIT CARDS DIDNT GET THEIR PAYMENT....FROM THE CREDIT COUNSELORS WHOM WE ALREADY PAID.....HE WAS PRESSURING ME, AND I SAID THEY HAVE TO PAY YOU...I DONT...HE GOT ANNOYING AND I HUNG UP.

ONE RECIPE...SINCE I WENT ON A DIET...ABOUT 1500 CALORIES A DAY......(THINK i LOST TEN POUNDS SO FAR?) I TOOK TWO FILETS OF FLOUNDER (FORGOT TO WEIGH IT) AND PUT GARLIC POWDER ON IT...THEN POURED LEMON JUICE ON IT FOR TEN MINUTES... POURED OFF MOST OF THE LEMON, AND THEN MICROVAED IT FOR THREE MIN..THEN COVERED IT WITH SLICES OF ROASTED RED PEPPER. AND TWO TABLE SPOONS OF jALAPENO CHEESE SAUCE (40 CALORIES) AND SLICES OF JARRED LEMON GRASS....THEN MICROWAVED IT FOR ANOTHER MINUTE AND HALF.. TIME WILL VARY WITH MICROWAVES.
YOU CAN CHANGE THE FLAVORS BY ADDING CAPERS,OR THIN SLICES OF ONION, SHIVES, GREEN ONIONS,MUSHROOMS, JALPENAS, OR ANY HIGH FLAVOR LOW CALORIE ITEMS.. tHE TOTAL CALORIC CONTENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 280. wITH ONE FILLET, 180 AND VERY TASTY.....I HAVE LEARNED TO USE HOT SAUCE, PEPPER OR JALAPENAS...WHEN THE FOOD IS SPICY, YOU DRINK MORE WATER.........AND FILL UP MORE...

EMBRYO TO ASHES (fROM MY 3D COLLECTIONS OF POEMS)embryo to ashes

EMBRYOS to Ashes
and everything inbetween
can be seen
as part of the master plan
not only Dna
maps out the entire trip
conception to cremation
but powers
we cannot fathom
instructions from phantoms
we make into gods
cloud our senses
building invisible fences
to separate people
to divide great nations
put words into the mouth of spirits
who claim to rule the world
with a menu of rights and wrongs
fog our collective brain
from really seeking the truth

we stake our claim to the world
with mystical interpretations
and illogical representations
ridiculous misconceptions
Science placed on the back burner
while legend burns on the stove of insanity
and mans vanity
and mans ignorance
and mans superstition
and mans pride
can snuff our a millions souls
before admitting
there can be another way
To view the world
and appease the gods and spirits

Destiny prearranged
by minds deranged
by belief systems based on fantasy
corrupts and perverts reality
making the world not much different
than the world presented
in a three dimensional cartoon
comedy horror show
ending when the PIG says
"that's all folks"
and is shot to death
