Best Drill Poems

...and the wind..!
 was, 
electric. 
there was water..!
there was sun..! 
...it was all renewable...
the energy, 
powered, 
sustained, 
life..! 

Fossil liquids burning 
emitting toxins 
that was OUR mistake. 
From the day a human kick started 
wound up the first combustible engine..!

The first spill in any ocean...

How I'd relish standing Obama at a brace and show him how to salute!
He's shown zero respect to the Marines and I suppose he thinks he's cute.
 
No one salutes with a coffee cup in hand, not even the rawest, dumbest recruit!
Should a soldier, sailor,...

What demons lurk in government leaders?
Our lives like toys to play and discard?
Hearts frozen in fear
Snakes coiled to strike
Gas or virus, from enemies within

You may overcome us, sicken and slay
But remember the 3%, from
Revolutionary days!

I stand with my brothers, to the last man
Hell hath no...

Eleven years had passed
since the marching Allies left
the small and peaceful town of Baiano;
they glanced back and heard
the song they cherished and loved:
admiring those pretty stripes and stars!

Grateful for their kindness,
women threw flowers petals
and claimed them heroes;
the smallest boys and girls
followed them dreaming of their...

Seven things to grab in a hurry
My house going up in a blazing fury...

First things first, 
   my favourite courier bag,
   then with my custom leather boots safely inside,
   I surmise as quickly as ABC,
   well JKLM:

I'd...

Something that never gives me a thrill
is having to deal with a dentist’s drill.
There is a cavity he has to fill.
When he sticks that needle into my mouth,
it hurts like hell and I feel like going south. 
And he told me I wouldn’t feel a...

We all went to Swansea 
To see the University
We had a nice lunch by the sea
In a place called Langland Brasserie

And later that same afternoon 
We got back to our hotel room
I settled down for a nice kip
While the girls enjoyed a poolside dip

I was...

No "FAKE" Fire Drill

Residents at high
     land manor apartments
     (aside from myself)
     got rudely awakened -
     by what sounded
     like a screaming,

Tribute to a Drill Sergeant


He stood there as we departed the bus,
Nobody but he could make any fuss.
First impressions are those that last,
And his was certainly made very fast.

He seemed larger than any in the crowd.
To ensure that all heard, he was very loud.
He immediately...

My sandals give me 
blisters and this blistering 
screech deafens me.
Don’t get your jacket
It isn’t chilly outside
(you must have never 
sat under a waterfall)...

Pouring down, non-stop for days.
Flowing endlessly in rivers.
Somewhere, down the drain,
Deceptive water, leaves the Soil bare!

Thermoelectric power generation,
Chemicals and effluents,
Wet processing or concretization,
Corn ethanol or vegetation,
Sewage, drainage and slops,
Landscaping and sanitation.
Its dwindling and still we have no hesitation!

Yes! It sucks staggering amount of water.
Still we...
