poetry and prose by stephen chute
Sunday, October 19, 2025
usually by noon i'm okay
i'm
not a morning person.
i need
quiet.
i need time alone
to grunt
and stumble about.
i need serenity.
peace,
coffee, a long stare out
the window.
but by noon i'm
okay. at least
most of the time.
you'll see
if you decide to stay.

only two more months to go
this one time in band camp
tinkling issues
drill baby drill
finding a place for things
guaranteed to last a life time
winter travel
pj's with long sleeves
maybe they don't know
a beautiful field of mushrooms
tomatoes for the road
there's a story here
sticks and stones
this land is your land, etc.
before you order the wedding cake
that's what love is, right?
taking control of my life
nearly every breath you take
nurse on reserve
the quiet majority
a twist on Halloween
tit for tat
the dumbing of America
good times are coming
two lips pressed together
the new year book edition
lemon chicken, no, come on now
Sugar Town
vacancy, rooms available, free-wifi and a continen...
stay off it for awhile
the street opera
plumber Mike
three wads of bubblegum lost in her hair
the Macaroni Grill
where do i put this trash?
i don't want the winner
house triage
we need more voters on our side, so let's open the...
one spank on a full diaper
no wind in my sail
before i rest what's tired
look at me, walking without a limp
the golden age of slow motion
first job as a fry cook at Bob's Burgers
the weekend social warrior blues
the secret of a good marriage
i just made a salad, take a look
don't let it slide
betting on the games NBA style
new job opportunities
we are all know it alls now
synthetic oil
the leaves can wait
destroying a precious shrine
saving the wildlife and being a good person
the passing of Mary Beth
don't waste your life
the destination wedding
shut up
even the sky seems bluer
rarely anything new that's good
dough boys
drug cartel boats go boom
i have no idea what anyone was talking about, but ...
in case of emergency dial 911
something has to give
taking the bait daily
the first milking of a cow
mattress on the roof of a Beetle
ten hours left to go
i had her wrong the whole time
there's a man on the roof
i'm sick of eating chicken, honey bun
which generation are we on now?
the magician
starting over
dancing with sunlight in her hair
so now what do you do?
crazy in the head, crazy in bed
an old thought approaches
usually by noon i'm okay
no need to read a dog's mind
to be left in splendid isolation
love helps too
frogs vs. kings
don't be smart and get rich
Bill and Nancy are disappointed in you
from a distance we seemed normal
everything but common sense
kneeling at the tub
why even vote anymore
jumping jack flash
the last cookie ever
so whatever happened to what's her name
the morning fire
the no kings rally, yawn
the endless empty parking lot
you're his only hope
when all is well
when the lights go out
