Abe Lincoln
Abe Lincoln had a way with words.
In true silence.
And when you're pure,
You can almost hear him snoring in his grave.
He was pretty tall.

Nightmare of the Thimble's Dreams
Oh curious splendid thimble
My eye is to you as dew to the petal.
Protectith thy thumb from needlish pokes
Be true?
My reflection against your silver skin?
Have I had the corn betwixed my teeth this whole time?
Have I been sewing with corn stuck between my teeth the whole time?!
Gross...I am sorry poor thimble.
Sorry for the view I cast uponith mine silver thumb helmet.

Paul
Great big trees are like...wow.
Some of those suckers get tall.
I'm like a fallen dove, with oversized wings.
Be true when you're doing math.
There's no right or wrong answer.
Paul used to say that.

Tiger Power
You know...
I don't feel keeping tigers as pets is as cool as it seems
with the meat
and the fur
and the nails
and the teeth...
Is that corn between that tigers teeth?
That tiger has corn between his teeth.
How was that tiger eating corn?
What the hell's going on here?
It's not corn?
What it is then?
...pieces of a raincoat?
I'm sorry...I didn't know.

Dark
A light desire for free grapes.
No fool will swallow a pony from the large end first.
Many people sing, but few play Stratego.
In or out?
You're all taking your shoes off!
-- Sifl
Life...you're soaking in it.
The quicksand is deep around here
It is life.
A leather ashtray filled with the Queens cigars
It is life.
Dropping a thousand beanbags out of an airplane
It is Leif Garret...I mean life.
A snowcone's skeleton displayed in a hologram.
Life is it!...thus it is life.
A football stadium filled with pudding
As aiplanes lower the giant spoon.
...It is....
Robotic Sausages that can roll and beep.
IT IS LIFE!
LIFE!!
LIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE!!!
-- Olly
You're always hearing something
Until silence interrupts it
Like dinosaur burps
-- Sifl
Checketh thy coat at the door
oh rose of silken ways
Moveth into thy light and furl thy tongue a raspberry
At a' boy danny, at a boy danny, come on danny,
you can do it danny...come on, homerun, danny!
you got it danny, next one danny... only two strikes danny
this one's you danny. swing danny, you can do it danny...
you suck danny.
checketh thy coat at the door of time.
darkness.
silence....mystery.
-- Olly
The darkest night
Can't compare
to the lightest shadows
sawdust is like aching hearts
with no glue
there are no solids
-- Sifl
My sweater is full of moths
makes me...
sad
I turn slowly
put it in sifl's drawer
-- Olly
Charles in charge
of my day
of my night
-- Sifl
from my cowboy hat to my spurs
from my pet cougar to it's purrs
from mountain top to valley stream
America America
man you got alot of awesome malls!
-- Olly
Bleed a Lot Johnny
"Johnny"
"yeah?"
"Bleed a lot...
Bleed a lot Johnny"
-- Sifl
Daddy's wigwam tall and straight
See them open heaven's gate
See them walking one by one
Astropup chillin' in the sun
-- Sifl & Olly
Man of fiddle
Did him tiny goddess
See them rust
sore from their urge
to worship lather.
-- Sifl
Smear my stuff
Why is it so
-- Olly
Oh skulls of tiny nature
Moveth into thine frillith
frothieth
Refrigerated star signs popping
Floweth in the grace of the quasi-rider jacket
Bloomin' heck
-- Sifl & Olly
I recall two raw boys in rose
crying like bitter drunks
I stare
I say
Use crushed juice on them
-- Sifl
I like Monkeys
big super monkeys
even when they pinch my arm
zippity bang, orangutans
never did nobody no harm
I like monkeys
punky, funky, monkeys
When they wear bandanas...
I feel overwhelmed
-- Olly
Chester's poems
Alone
Sometimes, when I'm alone,
I think about Ketchup,
Because I know that the truth is that
Its just sitting there in a bottle, by itself.
I'm pretty sure it's red.
Sometimes when I'm with Ketchup,
I think about being alone,
In a bottle.
Standing next to the mustard all day.
Woman
Really pretty
you are very good
I'm chester
I like your shiny dress
Are you a princess?
Do you mind if I call you
Princess Passion?
