J.R.R. Tolkien
called himself
a " #Birmingham man"
though his travels
took him to Middle Earth

My son
rubs his chest
in a circular
motion
to say that
"he's sorry".
I kiss his forehead
and tell him
that it's all right.

I was indignant and outraged
by Jantjie’s hand jive
at the Mandela memorial in 2013
doubly so at myself
when Mike McCready
channeled Jimi Hendrix’s anthem
and I said the interpreter
should have played air guitar

A world of silence,
Adopting new sign language
To fool the machines.

i put my heart on the line
many a time only to find
it cost more than i had to give

i somehow survived
making it through to the other side
& vowed to forgive & live with #gratitude

Well aren't you just the sweetest ray of mega-fauna. But I thought unicorns only had one horn?

What?

I thought that was hippos.

Oh. I see.

the bird sits upon
atop the #rhino's hard horn
friends sharing a ride

#SomethingEveryday #Rhino #tanka

Insults slung towards me
bounce off; skin like rhino hide
Beware my long horn;
I will jab you with the truth
Burst the bubble of your
lies

the saddle sores are a bitch
but rhino jockey
has to be the coolest job ever
and best of all
there’s probably no weight limit

A pants-filling sight,
Rhinoceros at full charge,
Playing Jumanji.
