Doc's Dilemma (sonnets from the 'Stute?)

 

by Dr.Moose1

 

Pablo's in the 'Stute, is he here by chance?

Painting all the fruit, may I have this dance?

"Michael's" in there too, Doc is making rounds.

Spying on "One Flew", switched to scrubs from gown.

"Kaces" ev'ry one, fuelled by excess meds,

Brains cooked quite well-done, music in his head.

Lisa's lost her toe, Cha-Cha Mambo Waltz

Where? Nobody knows, bring the smelling salts!

Vincent's such a dear, having done too much

He'll lend you an ear, this boy's out of touch!

Ratchet none can stand, keep him out of sight!

Cold of heart and hand, 'til we get him right!

What a motley crew, Ratchet cannot know

Who knows what to do? She does not Mambo!

 

A sonnet at start, a recurring theme

Divided into parts, in this place of dreams

What forces that lurk, would Balladeer know?

In here do their work, or is it all show?

Will mayhem rule all? no offence is meant

Who answer to it's call, I question intent.

For meanings a-veiled, a most common thing

Abound in this jail, for those who'd be king

I mean institute, if one is to rule

A study in fruit, they must have the tools.

Odd "parings" in verse, perhaps Justin Thyme

What makes matters worse, would rule more benign.

They move things about, such is my belief

I smuggled this out, we can't all be Chief!

Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore!

Damn, Doc! Cool verse, indeed! I knew you'd

come through with a little prognosis of what

was really going on in here.

 

 

Dr.Moose1

 

Thanks but it looks as if I'll be back in there

before long. It's too big out here.

Doc

 

 

Nurse Crachet

 

Oh Doc, I knew you'd miss me, and all our fun

games we played. I'll be waiting for your return.

 

 

Dr.Moose1

 

Justin,

My 'puter didn't pick up your reply right away,

so thanks. It looks like I'm headed back

...

 

Rumba! Cha-Cha Mambo Waltz

Dancing 'neath their baleful glares

Do not like those smelling salts

Out the door and down the stairs

 

Fresh air freedom open space

Won't be going back there soon

Best stop dancing Justin Kace

Can't distinguish staff from loons

 

By now they should've missed me

I imagine they have found

The clue that I have left them

So that they could track me down

 

Not what it's cracked up to be

Of the mark this place falls short

Do not lack for company

I've no problems of that sort

 

Conversing with new people

Even when no-one's around

Puddle reflecting steeple

Must stay focused on the ground

 

Visual cacophony

In a moment it should pass

As that side-walk cracks shouldn't be

Lamp-post park-bench refuge grass

 

Fetal Cha-Cha Mambo Waltz

Full-blown catatonic state

Vaporized conductive salts

Dancing in a jacket, straight

 

 

Justin Thyme

 

You just THINK you're out, doc! Hate to be the

one to dump the bad news on ya! You're still in here

with the rest of us.... hehehe...look behind you!

It's me! JT!
