POEMVEMBER 2018-DAY 26:“Mustache Rides”

“Mustache Rides”

One for a nickel,

Four will get you five.

Climb on up for a mustache ride.

Forget about an UBER,

LYFT, left you behind.

You can always depend on a mustache ride.

Contoured for your comfort,

Warm and cozy for your thighs.

There’s a pant load of fun in a mustache ride.

The bidet is out of order,

They forgot to post a sign.

But, that won’t exclude you from a mustache ride.

It’s a thrill when you get rocking,

And move from side to side.

Riding to Nirvana on a mustache ride.

There’s no finer entertainment,

For a newly married bride,

A motor board vibration, highlights many mustache rides.

“I didn’t mean to suffocate him,

Don’t act so surprised.”

Just another passive casualty of a mustache ride.

Welcome to my effort. Yes, as a great procrastinator, it requires great effort to stay focused on something productive that matters to me. I’ll find any old excuse to traipse from project to project, and I rarely end up at the place I started. I find this maddening, and exhaustive. So it is with high hopes, and a greater grasp of self-awareness, that I embark upon staying the course so to speak. I enjoy writing. Be it blogs, fiction, poetry, etc. I love the craft and the act of creation, the art in and of itself, for it’s own sake and end. I am happy to be able to do it. Some stats: Born: March 1974 Education: St.Francis de Sales, Charlestown MA Don Bosco Technical High School, Boston MA University of Massachusetts at Lowell, Lowell MA Bunker Hill Community College, Charlestown MA DePaul University, Chicago, IL North Virginia Community College, Arlington VA Harvard Extension School, Cambridge MA Place of residence: Somewhere in the land of metro Boston. It’s vaguely familiar and becoming home more and more by the day, but when you come from “The Town” all else fails by comparison. Favorite Color: I’m partial to all forms of blue. Favorite Author: c’mon! don’t expect me to answer that, there are too many. I enjoy memories of playing 80’s Atari better than playing any advanced gaming system that exists today. Some day: Hope to be recognized for my paper clip collection. As well as my 27 rejected applications to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailiey Clown college.
