Joe Maverick Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

I used the term s'wot..In the 1920s/40s English context of heavy Studying..And also in its verbal connotation to the word what.' To Any reader thanks a lot.!

Upping the Anti'

As far..As well? or wherever they are.? Semantics
About Semites..To me just are.' Abreham begat 
Ishmael and Issac...Both semites..Got me? So far?
S'wot i think.? Should i stop short of the brink.
.? So no need for a face off, or a great
Confusing stink.' War is not the way.'  Why
Shed prescious blood.? When the waters of Life
Invite you to drink.. To a new life, where joy's
Will Calls all' just let your spirit go into the pink.'

sara Etgen-Baker August 14, 2025 at 5:24 PM definitely agree...war is not the way. How have we humans not learned that lesson yet. History tells us about the perils of war...yet still we persist....just boggles my mind sometimes. My soap box. wishing you a pleasant evening, Sara Joe Maverick August 14, 2025 at 9:48 PM Good to catch your comment Sara, write on; write strong as The time is moving..Oh i'd better run along.'
