Vaporizing Dave

2008-01-06T20:30:00.000-08:00

Guess what Christmas gift I wanted but was never going to get came today? Give Up? Well lets get some help.

Hey Dave! Help me out here. Just stand right there. Let's see.. stare at object and then squint.

Whoa! Wow that is too cool!

Or should I say hot Dave? You're lookin' a little warm.

Theres a glow about you. I don't know.. Are you losing weight?

Ooh. Looks like I missed some of you. I guess I have to work on achieving total vaporization.

Darn I'm out of test subjects. And I'm not trading one of my Storm clad Halle Berry clones to resurrect you Dave. Your wife can use one of her Antonio Banderas clones.

Now who should I practice on next? Oh Scott...

Omphaloskepsis

2006-04-05T12:59:00.000-07:00

I dwell on omphaloskepsis
and ponder its application.
To Oranges? Cutters and Carriers?
Or is it just me above the knee
and below the chest?
I could center my self at its center
but is it really in the middle?
But to know all of me
in this anthology
You must but ponder if able
your own little navel.
Is this good enough to be seen by all?
Would it matter? Ponder it. Don't squander it.
The deluxe hardbound edition has my mind
caught up in a swirlie.
Ice blue waters spiral down
towards the bottom of my gut.
Towards my navel when pierced
could hold a keychain along
with my omphaloskepsis song.
