Vermonts Putney School
for $32 thousand ayear
Our US teenage misfits
get ready for colleges
Rich sons or daughters
will rule the Universe
built by Bilderbergers
prepared by privileged
for elitists ofa world
this antipode of Sudan
Marlboros music school
the ultimate wonderful
woman conducting at 95


You Become What We Eat
 Wax The End Product
copyright © 2004 Frank Anthony
Dreaming the ice cream
man cometh gave no fun
for all the characters
in this yearly charade
At first tried flavors
to see if more samples
of all the differences
satisfied my curiosity
When taste is vanished
red white brown remain
as cholesterol bullets
to clog up the systems
no matter how you look


Shaping Public Opinion
 With The Media
copyright © 2004 Frank Anthony
The candidates debated
Ho it was like a dream
none of issues related
common worn-out themes
Anything is controlled
from light to a scream
actions were patrolled
nothing is as it seems
Then more commentaries
on what there might be
important poll carries
the media does not see
fit to remind a public


Marry Sunday Newspaper
 A Matter of Habit
copyright © 2004 Frank Anthony
Going through a Sunday
newspaper in the dream
not one single section
has anything to retain
By going to US wedding
people living together
over the last 10 years
entertain US relatives
Thrown away newspapers
lives without children
concern the All Mighty
Recycling Coordinators
Making habits business


Who Observers Will Say
 What Is Thought

Cleaning off the beard
canbe one passage rite
this period to another
new persons coming out
The second dream scene
to clean place to live
can meet an opposition
one never does suspect
Todo it in either case
requires consideration
It becomes symbolic to
the unimagined parties
of observed situations


Cleaning Up After Baby
 Problem of US All
copyright © 2004 Frank Anthony
Black bubble gum comes
into the nightly dream
hardens into blotching
on my light pine floor
Left with the youngest
child there is nothing
anyone looksforward to
can grow the obsession
she knew does not last
argues beyond children
deals misunderstanding
in kaleidoscopic lives
which need cleaning up


Dream of Learning Over
 With A Mentor
copyright © 2004 Frank Anthony
Confusion my first day
a senior backto school
trying tofind this way
not looking likea fool
And my advisor touched
and I this touch tohim
simpatico wewere mucho
although he wore a gun
I could move the train
we wereall waiting for
move with minimum pain
like my Army Air Corps
Me learning over again


Mother Mary Chaperones
 Like A Virus
copyright © 2004 Frank Anthony
On a lonely dream road
the way out to nowhere
with time inexplicable
tryingto recapturelove
She always the vehicle
situation fit my glove
fate the fickle finger
of a ghostly chaperone
So long as this virgin
has infected my psyche
impossible connections
brand dream encounters
Her dry run collection
