Pop Sonnet #260

Carefully retracing my steps
Still feel like a let down
Some days very unkempt
Dreams can be disappointing round

Here make a common plea
Fight on and on
Be who I want to be
What went wrong

That's the freaking point now
Glad dreams aren't real
Or are they full of wow
Now I'm playing with an even steal

Just don't pressure me way too much
Or I'll wind up back on the crutch

Pop Sonnet #261

It becomes a world concern
How heavily
My back door will not be burned
My treasure is not a ruby

So find time for that which matters
Listening again
To the old band Platters
Stall us all even then

Don't have to resist
Everything we hate
I feel so guiltily list
So commiserate

The daylight has dawned so I think I'll cry
Or should I just sit back and lie

Pop Sonnet #262

No point in hurting people's feelings
And no one else has to have the dealing
When company is always freewheeling
I've wrecked myself and that's comfort healing

Because we all know by the grace of God
That we can win without a lightning rod
The heaven's get sad when I can't applaud
All the days of my life a numbered nod

And don't focus on the only flaw
Unless that is why they rail me with the raw
Expect someone else to dissipate the law
When the checkmate is in the saw

Better not be rowdy when we dream away
I hope dreams aren't real in the sudden clay

Pop Sonnet #263

So hard when people hear me
So clear that it's always empty
So full of wax in my inner ear tempt me
And cleaning up my act is for the trippy

Make a tirade go away
Unless there's a limit to what I say
Heed not the warnings of another day
Great now we cannot go to play

Unless there's a rope tied around my neck
I'd just whimper oh what the heck
It is always a fearful trek
When the weather has gone to check

On the mountain where my feelings hurt
Probably should just go eat some dirt

Pop Sonnet #264

I may hurt for all my life
Could I really handle another wife
Been everywhere without a knife
And I think I'll press on with the strife

Because it takes awhile to catch up
Unless my symptoms are backing up
Don't listen to the golden cup
Beneath the rim of the silver sup

Trample the serpent if he appears
And dream about the future of yesteryears
Keep going amidst all the grazing steers
Thank God for this country of many tears

And know you're alive when you break yourself of
Takin' er as easy as today's love

Pop Sonnet #265

Finally got a break from writing
And I don't want to hear about the fighting
Because it's the dream of all inviting
To take time out for what's more exciting

Plan to relax for a couple days
Plan on hardly anymore lays
Don't want the Lord to simply haze
I need a donut with some glaze

Past a few rounds of the camel's back
Should of fought harder and that's a fact
Sometimes I wish I was born black
But then I think I'd wind up on the rack

So pay attention to the world around you
And do what you can to remain true

Pop Sonnet #266

It seems like the world will never end
Making time to make sure that we can blend
To the whole world I have to send
And keep using old Dragon Rend

Because they fall from the sky like an angry woman
And I find the fear just keeps on loomin
It's not fair to be an addict groomin'
And in my old empty empty tomb in

Time out for the sympathy
You don't really want to follow me
It just ain't it just ain't the way to be
And today is a bad day to climb a tree

Catch you later when I come to class
No extra credit but I still might pass

Pop Sonnet #267

Worried about the whole state of affairs
And I think there's a lot who cares
In your robe you like nice in stairs
And I will always hand out the shares

Because it is an object lesson true
Glad I cannot catch the flu
There's no one left it's clue
I always think of Dana and of Drew

Boxing out in a boxcar made for her
No more trouble do I need to stir
And it's the sky that I'm shooting fir
Check out the sky you might see Mir

A time for a jealous symphony
Full of the days of the whole town's plea

Pop Sonnet #268

You need to avert and avoid is possible always
Now no one know what goes and stays
It's a day full of masquerades
And take a compliment if you have nice shades

Don't know who will get elected
Is that any reason to get infected
Getting used to being rejected
Although I'm not dejected

Is there happiness in the dung heap
Is there any time to take a leap
Is it okay if I am a sheep
Through the mud there goes a jeep

And I should go back to bed
Just don't let anything go to my head

Pop Sonnet #269

And again I pull down the curtain
Yes I know that for very certain
It's a long way back from the times I'm hurtin'
And the Army I am desertin'

Because if memory serves me right
Thou shat not kill and join the fight
The partying has a sight
For the times we don't want to be all right

Unless I am just projecting
All the nice days of styling
And it's okay to be smiling
Just don't think of bad thoughts when dialing

So another day comes to an end
Destiny cannot pretend
