"Bad"

Salted butter in my coffee 

Just the latest fad

But like salt water toffee

It really ain't so bad.

"Fake"

Life as a cartoon

Is people in a show

Everyone being fake

   (the only real they know).

"Crazy"

There's always some crazy woman

Telling lies on men

It's your choice to believe them

   (and make yourself the demon).

"Thugs"

The Irish are the policemen

Italians gangsterish thugs

Best we can do is to say "Amen!"

   (amidst a preponderance of hugs).

"Ruin"

As her stories prove out as lies

Stories that ruin lives

You'd think she might lose her power

   (or get tossed from Ivory Tower).

"Spied"

I spied three robins today

Eating seeds at the foot of a tree

While we all wish Winter away

I've found birds who surely agree.
