POEM:
Well, well, well, now whatever did I just see,
Chuggin’ along out on old Route Thirty-three?
A Panda Bear in a Honda – could it be?
And he was pushing a big, old, blue RV.
His paws on the steering wheel seemed out of place,
As did the fuzzy smile on his fuzzy face,
Beneath his Santa hat with a holly sprig,
Puttin’ along, pushing that RV so big.
I’d passed country mailboxes with wreaths bedecked,
That’s the seasonal joy I’d come to expect;
Not a Panda, with a red bow ’round his neck,
Helping a fellow traveler on his trek.
When I passed him by, I knew then what I saw;
A rolling prank by a gray-haired grand-pa-pa.
That Panda’s car wasn’t pushing, no, no, no!
His Honda was just a vehicle in tow.

This relationship that wafts of rot
Molded at the core
How can it be

Performed by Val Cole
POEM:
Bright eyed lady, spin the thread, sew the flag
Fife and drum marching across the land
Hear the creed in far off places
Democracy’s seed, Lady Liberty
Needle skipped, would’ve cried for a penny
Rain fell, the liberty tree, into the lock, the treasury key
Out of mind... -

Poetry by Val Cole
POEM:
I.
How heavy the tires that drive you
Through fireworks in the street.How plain the lies that hide you,
The blood and myth behind you
Is nothing new to me.Beautiful I find you,
To wrap two legs around you,
Surrounded by the safety of my fear.Steady, love reminds...
