Dear Karen, there’s something I need:
I’ve got you a poem to read.
A deficit in one’s attention
is probably best left unmentioned.
If boring writes get you distracted,
my outcome’s adversely impacted.
For when the dear reader is addled,
strong placements just up and skedaddle.
Before you’ve a chance to retort,
just know that I’m keeping it short.
Disorder escapes its confines
perusing these final two lines!

I've met with Major Problem
To discuss a business problem
But his brother General Problem
Was so jealous, it's a problem
For he thought that the younger Problem
Did not want to invite him
General Problem was so hysterical
Uttering words adversely lyrical
General Merchandise was so disturbed
To the older Problem he was perturbed
General Electric was forced to intervene
General Problem became serene

O pilot of my whole being! O Soul! Spirit! Atma!
O, you that leads me to the absolute Paramatma!
O, I yearn to connect with you! Communicate! Converse!
O, I long to touch you; feel you; in you to get immerse!
I'm as weak as a jellyfish; unable to hold me,
I try all the ways, to go within, like novice rishi;
I explore my self - like a saintly sage - my past, present,
I try my focal point; to this my energy I spend...!
Do I, like greedy rich, lean on my material wealth?
Or, like hypochondriac, overanxious about health?
Or, as orthodox mice, raffle-rousing, terrorizing?
Or energy wasted thinking of adversely acting?
Now, like an alchemist, I tread into my magic lands,
Like a researcher - study, synthesis, weigh wetland sands;
Like a naturist, explore beauty; ponder! Contemplate!
Like farmer, plow; manure; cultivate; irrigate; harvest!
I examine my frequent existence; stop, look, and walk!
I wait for signs from within; only inner voice I talk!
I place my hands, on my heart, and question my intentions,
I make my yatra within; walk moved by intuitions...!

The uniform was put on each work day
It started as blue serge cleaned and pressed creases to stay
And I progressed through the years dedicated
Changing blue and less parade ground antiquated
I wore it with pride and saw things through
Learning about people and knowing what to do
There were times when I questioned it all
Sometimes laughing or crying as I do recall
The years rolled on and some things changed
Requiring from me an attitude that was rearranged
And my path became less clear in it all
For me to stay with the blue and adversely call
I remembered what an older member had said to me
You’ll know when your time to leave will be
When it came I knew I couldn’t stay in the mix
And I couldn’t see that new simple ideas for me wouldn’t be fixed
So a clear decision was made
To go on to other things and let it all fade
I sit and watch it function without me now
While I sit on the outside looking on not a part of the how.

It was designed in order to break up their food,
but could be used adversely according to mood,
most things I say are 'wrong,' know what I mean?
I really start to wonder about heard and not seen.
Remember Ogden said: 'Just say yes to everything,'
we know that's not possible, peace it might bring;
of course, maybe it's me with the old furry tongue,
but my sarcasm is measured, not a smoking gun.
I went to visit 'Job,' he said: 'Have patience my friend,'
that was all very well for him, no red ears to bend,
such is our 'Lot' in life, turned into a pillar of salt,
you start to wonder - why should it all be my fault.
There are some different grades of sandpaper feline,
but then to be fair, yours of coarse is a very fine dine.

Service
Written: by Miracle Man
July 21, 2021
When we’re found serving others we inspire gratitude,
but adversely, we may also, invite conflict to follow.
By dispensing words to another which are crude,
we’re shaping a bed in which someday we’ll wallow.
Concerned voices don’t dispense, words that sting,
nor a christian persist, in always throwing a curve.
But seeing doing the right thing as a form of worshiping
Jesus “didn’t come to be served, but to serve.” *
* Matthew 20:28
“Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.”

Which path makes more sense
If choice is the reasonable poise?
No wonder then that you forfeit
The security that grounds and binds
For it may yet be good to risk
Such adversely vain consequences
For counterpoise yields balance
Beyond the scope of blind odyssey

Enters entitled, exits entitled; "Oh where art thou," this title be?
Entirely composed of humans in this entire amenity.
Humanities amenities entirely entitled to a life less entirety.
Entitled to less entirety than one could humanly admire, admirably.
Entirely composed of humans in this entire amenity.
The amenities comprising humanities commodity
Entitled to less entirety than one could humanly admire, admirably.
Are contradictory to the overall popular opinion of society...
The amenities comprising humanities commodity
Adversely affecting humanity, more so than less
Are contradictory to the overall popular opinion of society...
Anonymity is anonymous to say the entireness.
Adversely affecting humanity, more so than less
Humanities amenities entirely entitled to a life less entirety.
Anonymity is anonymous to say the entireness.
Enters entitled, exits entitled; "Oh where art thou," this title be?

On the street, it is known as “angel dust” colloquially.
It has a formal moniker in pharmacology.
The name is rather long, but is abbreviated to “PCP”
It was first synthesized as a dissociative anesthetic.
Among its side effects, it is hallucinogenic.
More seriously, to the nervous system, it is toxic.
Junkies can inhale it, ingest it, or it can be smoked.
With its use, the brain is adversely provoked.
What are often produced are hallucinations.
Sometimes, the drug fashions delusions.
There is numbness of pain, but distortions of reality.
This cannot be anything to use for you or me.
Thanks to wikipedia.org online encyclopedia for information I obtained to write this poem.

Lately, the weather has dropped drastically,
and Fall holds up serenely and beautifully;
green trees so stately gently fluctuate
against a sky of transparent blue as hummingbirds make plans to migrate,
but the downy woodpeckers interrupt their chat
with their unbearable drumming that disturbs their peace with intent.
Summer in New York State has been humid and stormy,
temperatures rose above a hundred degrees as pavements smoked,
sprinklers in streets made children happy as they were being soaked...
so very thankful to live in a rich country offering such a commodity;
adversely, a water shortage caused drought in the South allowing tragedy
as gasoline and food prices soared and spouses couldn't pay alimony.
Hot summers predict cold winters, and we await a harsh winter...
stock up on shovels and salt, keep your driveway and sidewalk snow-and-ice-free;
will you get help from your kids when snow falls...having you think of electric bills?
No, let them play and have fun...their blood is hot and they feel no chills!
And should you think of joining them, drop your shovel as if stung by a bee!
Which other way is there to endure the wintry weather living as an Alaska bear?

He came to me
Out of the crux of the wind'
He provided for me
The substinenance that
I somehow lacked with-in
He promised me everlasting Light
With life abundantly abound
And a rescue to eternety
For which He is so adversely resound
A place taker and a peace maker
With a dispensation abound
Bestowing for all people blessings'
The riches' of his crown
For the man of God
The likeness of which their
Should ever be such a place
Is in His Kingdom
The Kingdom of Heaven

When god is favoring
Our luck is favoring
We are capable
With qualities so able,
We when come on top
The feeling is speechless
Confidence, our work area,
Our personality, our talents,
All are given new ray
All together gives perfect way
We are the star,
We are so famous,
Living in this era, the era of the king
It's good to give happiness to our creators
Credit goes to parents, teachers,
But ultimately to us.
This feeling if everlasting can react adversely
But this happiness is at the pinnacle.
