Blurring the Lines Between

December 31, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

Blurring the lines between

Psychopathy and normal

Business practice

Real talk inside the whitewashed

Walls of modern supply lines.

Broken Arms and Strait

December 31, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

Broken arms and strait-

Jackets waving the quick white

Wipes of sanity

In clear lines of distinction

That can be broadly applied.

I Walked by the Room

December 30, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

I walked by the room

And there were the shoes

Like my grandson would wear,

And I thought there must have been

An overdose on this floor.

Riding the Ruts

December 30, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

Riding the ruts

On the road less traveled slipping

Through mud on two wheels

Kicking up rooster tails

And powering around the turns.

Dumbphobia

December 29, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ 1 Comment

In a world filled with

Dumbphobia, stupid people

Need loving too.

“I hate stupid people,”

The mantra of stupid people.

Every Time I Jump

December 29, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

Every time I jump,

The Earth rises to keep my feet

From leaving ground.

That’s why I don’t play basketball,

And that’s why I can’t dunk.

With My New Service

December 29, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ 1 Comment

With my new service

You can be a badass

Superhero legend.

Just a small down payment

And a few in-ap purchases.

Winter’s People Confined

December 29, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

Winter’s people confined

In shadow brackets passing

Over the ruts.

The idyllic landscape

Of a life tucked between white trees.

Think of the Innocent

December 29, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

Think of the innocent

Snow angels destroyed by the

Snarl of tire tracks.

How dare you live a real life

In a winter’s greeting card.

The Full Belly and

December 29, 2021 ~ The.Richard.Braxton ~ Leave a comment

The full belly and

Fart firework days leading

Up to New Year’s Eve

Bringing out the big guns

The form of cabbage and cornbread.
