" Inordinate Fondness "...

Inordinate fondness
crushing problems
under the sun

not far offf
in short-shorts
gone walking
with a childhood dog
along glorious
shores generated by:
" The Omnipotence of Thought"

calling, "Put 'er there!"
in aerobics' classes
for vaudevillian casts
doing their wrestling dances

likened to
bartenders
for opposites
being named
after goddesses

seen in
silk garments
treated to look
like Moroccans
having gone
under the radar
at rock concerts

emotionally charged
represented all or in part
as all or nothing at all

with drowned-out voices
in avoidance of discord
stop sniff and listen
lusciously elicited sizzling...
