Summer 69
Before the day turned into night
when morning dawn seemed clear and bright.
Before, the taste of spent cordite
lingered around one more bomb site.
We sang of love, no war, but peace
why should we fight Vietnamese;
it was just but summer’s caprice;
for we were watched; secret police.
We hate your God! We hate yours, too!
I hate you’re green. I hate

The Future I Want To See - Bitcoin Poem 069
Money that stores our working hours
Free from the theft of looting powers
Children happy - living carefree
This is the future I want to see
Safe, protected property rights
Long term planning in our sights
A country we don’t have to flee
This is the future I want to see
Honest leaders who give a care
Willing to serve, without fanfare
Living humbly

69 Century St
On that fateful morning,
I saw the flames so high.
They were so strong,
They seem to reach the sky.
All i could do was hope,
That everyone was safe.
When i saw it on the news,
I knew it wasn't the case.
One womans life was lost
Someone i called a friend.
We all watched in horror
Hoping that was the end.
As the days had

Chapter 69 -- Damian Delilah Mallory and Polly: Secret Places
Aah Summer time. The house
Was quiet. Dolly and Molly were
The only ones awake and already
Showered and dressed. Dolly said.
"Woo I am ready for whatever."
Molly agreed saying, "Yeah,
Sister girl what are we doing
Right now it is 11 o'clock morning
Side. Hum?" Dolly questioned,
Do what, do whatever we want
Before everyone

Extra Special Fool, 69
New poem..by Slode.....
Xtra Special Fool 69
I was just a little guy
But was calculated
I could rip off the charm
Rip off the charm
Right from your mom
Never caring who conspired
The laugh at the end
As hard as diamonds
The last moment of the day
Sure got a cold bed
The last moment of the day
It's the only way to

Section 69
Catch 22 was fiction
Appealing to a humour like mine
But there was nothing very funny
About Section 69.
The army ran on regulations.
Obey them and you'd be fine
But, beware of that ubiquitous
Queens Regs Section 69.
Devised for situations
Where no others would fit
It took daring luck and skill
To wriggle out from under it.
If they wanted to get you
And couldn't find

No Title, Yet - 69
There are people from all walks of life who do good.
There are people from all walks of life who do bad.
We all have the potential to do what we should.
We need to get back the innocence we once had.
Just because we have the potential to harm,
Doesn’t mean that each and every one of us will.
It’s

Sappy Birthday 69
I remember, do you,
age appropriate for two
grandparents like you,
when sixty-nine
was a thing that you do
when you're hot twenty-and-a-few
too many.
I remember, do you,
grandmother's party at the zoo,
Happy SixtyNine on her cake
smelled and spelled like "Mistake",
Happy BodyDay to you two,
each doing who,
sweet memories
too.
