When vitamin and medication bottles became plaything of the missus

rew4er2nail

Mental health of yours truly
heavily reliant upon one selective serotonin
reuptake inhibitor named fluoxetine (Prozac)
aside from countless
(approximately seven) other
prescription medications kept
stashed in a plastic tray
until one or more taken at least once
or at most three times daily.

The wife flush with grand ideas
to gleefully, playfully,
and zestfully pester me
dreamt up a new fangled game,
whereat she moves
fast as greased lightning
thunderously laughing
her dexterous hands
airing maneuvering feints,
either replacing and/or removing
drug containers;
(some with caps prone
to pop off with relative ease
versus others with child protective covers
even though our progeny -
deux darling daughters -
long since emotionally, financially
and spiritually fending for themselves).

Though childlike said antics
exhibited courtesy the wife
analogous magician eliciting "poof"
prestidigitation her wrist flicks
her reputation to wield
sinister magical powers rife
as a graduate of Hogwarts School
of Witchcraft and Wizardry,
she ranked as an outsize force
with legacy legerdemain legion
instantaneously kickstarting

irreversible incantation
finding me transformed

into a nasty, short and brutish oaf

with little spindleshanks -
think toothpicks for legs -
reigned on from tempest in a teapot
while seeking cover under
lee side tulip tree leaf
comfortably numb nestled within kloof.

 

All around me

symphonic quiescent overture – heard
maestro Kant imitate
tryouts starring musical prodigies
and/or an attendant conductor
attempt to approach ambient chorus
divinely exhibited from Gaia's handiwork
heavenly invoking kapellmeister

magnificent nonchalant outlook

piquantly, quintessentially,

repertoire sensately striking

unmatched vast wisdom

yielding zephyr air albeit creativity

engineered from groundswell harmony

juxtaposed, kindled, linkedin,

manifesting noteworthy

opulent philharmonic recording

transcribing universal

veritable webbed wide world.

Wunderkinds yield Ziggurat

acme approximated asymptote

bequeathing celestial

Doppelganger Earthly emulations
formulating fractal glinting highlighting

ineffable joie de vivre jostling, keen kindling,
la la land legerdemain lifting logic

lording Ludwig (Josef Johann) Wittgenstein.


Yelping zoological apostle

Al affidavit Gore handily
heaping hubristically invocation

jolting kickstart measures
nipping nixed noblesse oblige opera

quickening quotidian

rapid ruination sans supreme

teetering upended venerated wise with acumen
arithmetical Benoit Mandelbrot

chasing far-fetched ideas

lightyears menacing nihilism

purging ogres opportunistically
resplendently ripping

revered tankard tipping unstoppably

vanquishing varietal whipsawing

wonderful wrapt yawning youngsters
warfare written wrought

yanking zestfully crushing environmental family
granting Herculean instant karma
malevolent, opprobrious pronouncement

quiet riot silencing severely

tragic ubiquitous vicious wreckage
yik yaks apemen cleft Earth.

 

Future foragers denounce

capitalistic bamboozlers aggression

zealots wrought trashing

quintessential naked kingdoms issue

flotsam coagulates zonal wastelands

torquing quality NON

killing habitats Earth bleached

yellowed voodoo ruins.
