A Dumber World

Hey guys, just a heads up: in the weeks and decades to come I'll be making light of the webcomic, A Softer World. The truth is I really admire the work on that site, but the temptation to satirize it is just too strong. I'm only human!

Check out A Softer World, for future reference...

New material

A poem
is a poem
is a tragedy

He said,
"I cry myself
to sleep sometimes."
She said,
"I want you."

"Where have
you been
all my life?"
he said.
She said,
"Hiding."

Wipe that
frown off
your face--
put it
on mine

We were hot
and heavy
She was more
heavy
than hot

You were
the apple
of my eye--
I always
preferred
legumes

Sad Horny
meet Lonely Desperate
you'll get
along
well

I'll love you
forever
maybe

He lost
his virginity
then
he lost
conciousness

Your embrace
is like
a dream--
actually,
it was
a dream

Mind-blowing.

B is for Bronwen

My buddy Bronwen has got a teriffic website, check it out! HERE

She has photos, musings, more photos, drawings, and other stuff! It's like Best Friend for Lifelong but qualitative!

Bronwen is quite a lady. She is probably one of the top five whistlers I've never heard. You should give her your support.

Pomes

Scissors are
for cutting paper,
silly.

I left
my heart
in Brooklyn,
and my
sweatshirt.

Sylvia-- why
did you
leave me?
And why
did you
take the
blender?

You make
me feel
so young
let's play
Legos

You are
as cute
as a
button
I love
buttons

I'd like to
major in you
and minor in us

Holding your
hand
is nicer
than a lot
of other things

You touch me
here
I touch you
there
We make each other
happy

Girl
Can't you see?
You're in love with
A jawline
Not a man

Your hair
Your eyes
Your smile!
Oh!
Is this love?
Or indigestion?

Poems by Me, Jordan

Sylvia-- sometimes
I think: what would
I do if you weren't
here?
Then I stop
thinking about it.

When you left I said,
"Crying is for babies."
So I acted
Like a man.

Sylvia-- your
Hair curls
Like some
Nice, curly,
Twisty thing.

Write me a poem,
she said, then
I'll break your heart.
Deal?
Or no deal?

Love is serious
business. All
transactions final.

"I'll never
love another,"
he said,
lying to himself.

He leaned in
For a kiss
She leaned in
For the salt shaker.

"You are so
sweet and loveable,"
she said.
"You remind me
of my dog."

You are as
beautiful as
a flower
and as
promiscuous.

I want to
know you biblically
Let's read
the Bible
together.

My heart
is in
your hands.
Slimy,
isn't it?

Love is a puzzle--
What's a twelve letter word for
Unbearable pain?

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME? I DON'T WANT WHAT YOU'RE SELLING. STOP STARING.
