Glory To Thermodynamics In General
Glory to thermodynamics in general...

and generation of heat in particular
cuz yours truly 
spoiled with trappings 
of Western Civilization.

How ideal I imagine 
to dwell in a self sufficient domicile,
where thrum of the central heater...
automatically activated 
upon advent of twilight,
or self adjusted/regulated 
based on outside temperature 
since...

Premium Member Oh, That Magical Christmas
I was beyond bereft!
With very little money, sure, we had a small place.
But no cash nor tree nor presents nor food were to 
be.
I cried a lot, so did my daughter.

I prayed very hard for some kind of answer.
Then I recalled "Operation Blessing"!
They wanted a...

Dear Music
Dear Music

Dear Music- would you marry drum?
for it will be beautiful when played under the setting sun
How would you love to be tomorrow’S heading
will you invite Guitar to your wedding?
From million miles your melodies be heard
As soothing as the morning hymn of a mocking bird
Since...

A Few Things To Consider Before Brown-Nosing In My Presence
1) I hate brown-nosers far more than I hate most other nosers 
of virtually any known color!

2) I will make it a point to slap you in front of your superiors,
with a biblical fury, the likes of which, would make Mary Magdalene blush with fits...

Money
Money has no color, 
whether it came from Black, White, Asian 
or any other tribesman, a dollar is a dollar, not more or less.

Money doesn’t smell, 
therefore, it weighs the same, whether it comes from
marijuana dealer’s pocket or holy temple’s offering basket.

Money doesn’t have a...

Reaney's Lamborghini
So slick and sexy.  Purred past Temple Bar.
That throaty engine advertising punch.
All legal London, strolling out for lunch,
with turning heads declared, “Now that’s a car!”

So many barristers are – if not losers, 
low earners and slow learners.  I was one.
I, plodding back from...

Premium Member If Not For You
‘If not for you ‘Bri' I might have hated all men'
Sobering words my ‘little sis' said to me, 
But just where it happened, or even when, 
Is a window through which I can't see.

I know we were younger, probably in our teens, 
Between us there...

Humanity
Helpless is each one who breaks the life barrier,
Umbrellaed beneath earth's vaporous dome,
Marked with the blemishes of a blighted race.
Angels look down upon them, try to guard their faltering ways.
Naked they are born and naked they depart;
In between the poles an unknown span of days
To...

The Common Man
Begin
Thus spoke the Premier in a solemn voice
Announced the implementation of a new plan
There are too many scams, I had no choice
It is to benefit the common man

At the stroke of midnight when the corrupt sleep
Their misdeeds in the past sixty-year span
Will be exposed when...

We Learn and We Earn
To learn is to earn, to earn is to learn
Learning is earning, earning is learning
Is the word learning same from earning?
Does learning and earning always go together?
Learning to earn is like the greatest learning
Earning to learn is an incredible earning
People prefer to learn and earn...

Premium Member People Among Us

People among us

I traveled alone to see people I never meet
Well beyond the usual places I get to visit
Knowing instinctively I will learn something,

There by the river I came upon stranded folks
Thrilled in joy as their rescue boat arrived
But it filled up quickly leaving them...

Extra Extra Read all about it
"Extra! Extra! Read all about it!"

Not a crock of ... but bull heave me,
you heard (read) right here from me
the horse's mouth,
who never neigh says,
cuz Trump (unexpectedly)
nixed presidential ambitions...
to pursue lifelong
management job at McDonald's,
nevertheless rival Burger King 
courtesy a turncoat,
who cozied up 
to Escherichia coli...

Where Is Vacation?
There will be a better place for this information 
when it prints as a small ad
there is a right to know 
baits are nothing but
half of all of you
blink at heartfelt applause
behind no cause 
hidden among million
quite unconscious of the blot
Is it large?
deploy the highest...

Premium Member Obsolete Professions - To Delete
Of all the professions ever been in the world
      Some are rightly regarded today as absurd

    The Western Union man just can't compete
      with high-tech texts and twitters and tweets

Economic Disparity Created During the Corona Phase
Economic Disparity created during the Corona Phase 


Death equalizes all at the end 
But sufferings are hugely different.
There cannot be any comparison 
Between the daily wage earners like
Vegetable vendors, itinerant traders
And the white collar employees; 
While millions have lost their jobs and vocation 
Some are...
