"Speed of execution often trumps perfection of plan."

"Bizzaro Time by Stewart Stafford I took dawn selfies on a bridge,Geneva worms conferred in slime,A woman's dog slithered serpentine,It snapped and hissed in bizarro time. A businessman's briefcase in flight,Went public in a philanthropist sky,Umbrellas blossomed into trees,Peacenik pigeon medal caught the eye. Coffee shops served liquid light,Brewed up pagan code of yore,Pedestrians' morphed molten form,Glass-blown in tangerine pour. We shared loop shrugs, muted pleas,Sober intoxication's escapist twist,A uniquely-marketed Tuesday morn,Dreamt up to commodify every tryst.© 2025, Stewart Stafford. All rights reserved."
