Wednesday poetry slam by The Elusive Robert Denby
Hi everyone, LL here.
Today we have the second batch of poems which Robert (Kris) sent me. As a fellow poet, all I can say is that I wish I had written these.

Abductions
The universe is nothing
but a chasm to be crossed
so a fleet of flying
saucers can settle into
a geosynchronous orbit
around you. And your
anus.
Good News
All these
articles in The
Atlantic
and The New
Yorker
while
America
keeps on
doing what
it was
going
to do
anyway.
Chyron
RESIDENTS DEMAND EXPLANATION AFTER MUDSLIDE
Okay, so when heavy rains and a hillside love each other very much...
Flash of Genius
1959. As his
wife was preparing
to so something
with grilled pork
roast in the kitchen,
he stared at the rotary
phone on the desk in
his den and pondered.
Hmm. If only I could
look at naked women
on this thing instead
of calling the office...
Heads Without Stems
How many
daisies
had to die
so you could
spell out KINDNESS
and LOVE
on the front
lawn?
