lake monster blues: a poem

is the sky blue
it's a serious question
you're just a lake monster
stuck in a world of weirds

color represents
sometimes doesn't
can't you tell the difference
i'm slipping, but it's not a metaphor

saw a picture of champ
all the proof you need
munch brunch or lunch
no one rides for free

robert finnegan: a poem

remember when you was young?
dad spent a long time trying to convince you
that a giant robot wasn't your friend.
you didn't listen, though,
and that's why you're here.

remember that time you laid down on the train tracks?
that was a bad idea,
but you didn't think so.
some ideas can be good
and bad at the same time.
learned that one in philosophy class.
