Jumbled Words

Who in their right mind wants to hear jumbled words tumbled turds baking in the desert sun pay dirt run, that children gather for fuel poor mule gets used from both ends. Growth tends to be slow here. Show fear and they’ll get you. Bet two wives on the end of times oil races loyal places disappeared into tribal dumping Bible thumping Americanic way through. Hey you! Didn’t you hear me? I said Halt! Dead fault free from army’s saying so praying though, it doesn't seem to matter go scatter your seeds through Bin Laddin In Aladdin’s story there was a lamp found camp ground of refugees could sure use that now fat cow sacredly slaughtered for meat to treat the Old boys to McDonalds “Have it your way” Shore stay for the Unified militaries fine elite Mine street bombs for babies to destroy hope deploy dope amoung the migrants roaming free homing fee for the disenfranchised bomb outs calm bouts of peace talks end in delusions thin confusions and parodies of pain left marking deft parking of military machine made in the Ukraine to train the children to kill time with the ever living never forgiving themselves the sins of their fathers care bothers and compassion removed from their brains fair rains may come again to wash the blood of innocence commonsense dictates we abate the situation here frustration fear of a never ending hell hold of strategic points paraplegic joints cramped into wheelchairs to race against time condensed rhyme trying to capture understanding notwithstanding rational thinking workers of the light kind who in their right mind.....wants to hear.... Jumbled words. This came about from a game we have going on FB in Mad Poets Society where we have to start a poem with the last line of the previous poem. For this one I rhymed the first 2 words of each line with the last two words of the previous sentence to create a word jumble as the line I had to work with suggested. It was fun.

Krow right on - sounds kind of cool to me - Awhile back I believe it was Karen O'Leary had one going where she started the poem and then who ever read it next put in the next line - Turned out rather well as I recall - God Bless, MJ
