WASTING TIME

Latest asking minutes President
Ends granular going
Tend informed Richards eavesdropping 
Song taken Internet clicking e-mails

Generation age screens 
Engagement addicted tweets
Texting old-fashioned normally entire

Lobby on-screen angle newspapers
Outrageous Warhol love
Sister-in-law imposed none
T-shirts impatient responded engaged 



SUN TENT BEE

Scratch the estimate of Elma’s vested guest 
Monsanto subscribes to the Devil’s desert
Vassals of bistro yodeling 
Han Solo’s aunt devolves me to guard the estuary 

Nests destroy and stare at simmering pasta
My antique cable miscalculates the voice vote
Tantrums have been located In the attendant’s creed
Tomato loaf for the pre-adolescent 

Yoko Nancy signs paragraph questions 
My palm has metal cords
Poor habits harm delta misses

Cujo  entangles a deliberate confession 
Poor voice, Nancy, poor tango with vipers
Poor voice of the morbid hatred, poor voice of the mortal



SUN TENT HEX

Oh, pretentious dullards, pour for me a malt halogen 
Dutch algebra cyanide dial question 
The junta establishes my memoirs 

Quiet my Dijon cyanide in my last passport 
Horses taunt bean-poor vesters 
Calm habits dissect algae diaries 
Contain grave dollar representatives 

Puss entertains my jalapeño levitations 
Todo has been my terminal distaste 
Sign suspicious petitions 
Evade the juntas that email my distances

Sign no soporific punishments 
Tantric beans, pork disasters
Vermin mourn memorial entries for tricksters

Hugh Tribbey’s latest collection is One Knowledge.
