After It Was Tasted

after it was tasted

depending upon your point of view
you must like being called liberal lou
if you have verve, swerve and nerve
name could be charlie conservative

difference between what can it be
how far back must we go in history
to have ensured an assured solution
pesky problem is profusion of pollution

what has messed up our whole mind
and schedule made us all far behind
what before us should soon appear
neutral solution very close and near

never again sides will we ever take
and a mole in the hole might make
before away my life has been wasted
english food is best when properly tasted

I really hope that other poets are honestly, truthfully liking my poems. I am having such a good time writing them and PoetrySoup is very therapeutic. How do you end up reading my poems anyway? My goal is 1,000 by May 16th when we leave for a cruise around the British Isles. Jim Horn
