Someday I'll (Unpub)

Someday I’ll wish upon a stile,
a Gunn upon some someday isle.
My whim...? "I’d swim a someday mile,
could I but spy some someday pile.”
 
Someday I’ll switch some someday dial
and, pitching on the Someday Nile,
I'll window shop the someday aisle
and glean some genie’s someday vial.”

Someday I’ll find myself on trial,
accused of choosing something vile.
“I’m innocent! No sin! No guile,”
I’ll whine behind my someday smile.
 
Someday I’ll fill a someday file,
belles-lettres in some someday style.
And, as I scan its erster teil,
I’ll yell, “Excelsior!” the while.

At First a Lot + Tillies (Unpub)

     At first a little, then a 
lot 
     upon your wienie or your 
Brät.
     At first she can, but then can-
not, 
     treat MASD -- or dry 
rot – 
     in Binghamton and Endi-
cott.
     At first found in your flower 
pot, 
     mums migrate to a garden 
spot 
     where mornings chilly soon wax 
hot.
     At first Amin’s an Einstein…
NOT
     But nor is Id some idi-
ot 
     who neither tittle gives nor 
jot 
     about Ugandans chewing 
khat.
     At first flees Abram’s nephew 
Lot 
     from Sodom and Gomorrah’s 
motte.
     At first some amber oil – Ne-
mat...? -- 
     for you and for your oce-
lot,
     whom, on a dare, you dub Pol 
Pot 
     while chewing some renewing 
qat.
     At first you claim I’m talking 
rot, 
     how I’m just some sodding 
sot
     molesting ev'ry passing 
tot 
     But that ain’t me; that’s Ujay 
Bhat...
     or maybe Oliver Von 
Trott,
     who first remarks, with Scot James 
Watt, 
     the stark remark “X marks the 
spot,”
     which phrase Watt 'blazons 'cross his 
yacht.
     (Such firsts occur in Zhat Vash…?
NOT: 
     They issue from McCloud -- which…? 
Scott! -- 
     in issues of his comic 
Zot!

Asking The Answer Dude, Episode 42 (Unpub)

     Ms. Query Person: 

     So, Mister Answer Dude, can you tell me the real story in  
back of all those holes I see -- six rows of three alternating 
with four rows of two -- punctuating the pair of my saltines...?

     Mr. Answer Dude: 

     Those microscopic dimples displayed in elegant array 
across the face of your standard double cracker total 26 -- 
prior to the whole being crumbled into some soup or other. 
The 26 holes deliver silent reminder of all the differing 
iterations of bouillons and borschts, of gumbos and gruels 
into which you could find yourself executing a crumble.

Soup's On!

Hola, Holoalpha! (Unpub)

'Pix* of zombie Jew knockin' in lead run
very quick puts an end to the game' 
mimics 'rhombicubocta-(Ben)-hedron.' 
(Both bazorgt be, to pangrams proclaim.)
 
     * Both the sentence and the word 
contained within single quotes above are 
pangramatic in that each contains all 
26 letters of the alphabet.

Archimedean solid shabbily constructed
using old copy paper, masking tape,
pencils and a chemical marker.
