Confucius say “He too quick to mass debate, too quick to ejaculate!”
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Note: Oxford dictionary definition of ejaculate = to yell, cry out, exclaim etc.
And this debate lived up to that.

Hallucinatorily has too many syllables for a haiku
That is why Confucius say Japanese poems pure foo
Confucius say, so does Tao,
So does Jesus, there is no woe,
Don't send dick picks on our phones,
Gal bloomers don't get thrown,
Disembodied , magnets not,
Do grow up, you little grots,
Stay in touch, Confucius say,
F... off our phones today,
So does your ex-wife, so yah!
Confucius had a garden that was the envy of the land.
His poppies were the bomb and his bud a medicinal strand.
The government would come knocking looking for his secret seeds.
But all they could ever find were just common garden weeds.
Confucius had a plan that would spread joy across the sea.
He would bag these little critters and ship them off to you and me.
For those brave enough to plant and not raise such a fuss.
They would acquire the knowledge and wisdom of the famous Confucius.
When I got my sack of seeds, I began a garden right away.
I gave them water and love and never put them on display.
They grew up big and strong this special garden made me smart.
My life would never be the same and it would never fall apart.
I’m thankful for my seeds and how this world now looks.
Confucius had a garden, but it’s not in any books.
To be truly and deeply Confucian,
we don’t need a refined constitution.
Just obey mom and dad.
Choose the good — not the bad.
Serve the Emperor, S/shun revolution.
What The Problem Is. ?.?,?
And i think to myself
What a Wonderful World

The Hippie And Confucius
The sign said ‘Hippies Use Side Door’ but there was only one entrance or exit
and a revolving door she ponders the conundrums sent for resolute resolution
such a quandary to find the way now as she pauses when puzzled then checks it
as it swings freely she wonders if life is straightforward or again she’s been conned
A revolution she reflects on the human condition and what lies beyond
the sign post inside awaits her confusing decision this might be ‘confucian’
life could be so easy we’re the ones to make it complex unless we abscond
decamp to true meaning so just walks round the door and is free once she legs it

Ask to live well with values right:
Sound mind and heart live moral grounds;
Apply and dwell what esteem sights,
Grow a fond art in courteous rounds,
Embrace the rules of etiquette.
Choice marks the way of social skills,
Observe the fool to purge regret;
Nurture the spark of fine goodwill,
Focus and be a man of peace;
Use polite means to live your talk,
Calm and truly let respect please;
Inspire within that humble walk,
Urge the loyal soul with piety,
See the filial path laid wisely.

~I confuse a Confucius?
Why, that would be ridiculous,
I don't even know him.
Master Kong you say in the day?
I thought that was a movie
About the love of an Ape?
Great.all.be.he... I didn't no see
An ape had more of a name then me.
That Qui was MiA and the MiBs....
Two.You confused a Futzu.Kung.fu.
Wait...
Qufu thought he was Egyptian?
Albert you say was on a Mission?
A Mason with a puck who was kissin'
~A duck? wtf?
In a Time when demons had a lake?
And a rink and some hockey skates?
~ Your Confucius is quite confusing
A Maya with a Count who was musing?
To the tune of 80's are you sure?
And I still don't get how Qufu's Egyptian?
Who is which one? Flying this Mission?
I'm gonna report you....
~If I don't understand you... soon.
And this is why you don't get
the gummy bears...
Or the Cup. ;) Of beers...
Who the heck are you anyway?
Or am I confused and talking to myself.
Again? \@@/
Or am I just crazy and it's my pen?
Move over would ya,
"You're Confucius.ing.Me"
