Queuing TheoryI am the first of many
The lucky one with out any
People standing before me
Being early is the key
So please don't stand in front of me
Can't you see where you should be
Each in turn must join the line
At the back, you'll be just fine
I really can't...

The Arrogance of WealthThe Arrogance of Wealth
By Elton Camp
“Dowager Countess” you must call me
Any familiarity and evil will befall ye
I am a very wealthy aristocrat
I am sure you are jealous of that
I hold a most lofty station in life
Free from mundane tasks or strife
When I speak, all...

Andrea Dietrich and DunkirkAndrea Dietrich and Dunkirk
Sure seem to be so many similarities,
Along with varieties and familiarities;
When compared,
And also shared;
Sometimes disturbed by disparities.
Do take awesome Battle of Dunkirk,
And way out everything would work;
Harvey hurricane,
Sadness remain;
Much love was there as it would lurk.
There are so many similarities between
Battle...

EnglandENGLAND
England is a changing country
Not the place I left thirty five years ago.
Oh yes, they still have Ann Hathaway’s Cottage,
And Buckingham Palace, and even fish-and-chips.
But it’s all dressed up in theme-park clothes,
And staffed by people speaking only Serbian,
Or Bengali,...

Be Sure To Buy Roundtrip TicketBe Sure to Buy Roundtrip Ticket
(Just in case.)
In America, we are always so spoiled
Like lavish living and nothing soiled
Never need to handle anything with care
There is always good old wash and ware.
When you want to know how things grow
For everything is an elegant TV...

PhewDawn phoned to ask me,
If I should like to write,
A poem for the Companion Club,
And I said, alright
She wanted me to call the poem Summertime,
As it was the Summer season.
Little did she know, I hate the Summer.
I am a Pom, so maybe that's the reason.
Summer...

Gloriously Luxuriating In Eternal SleepGloriously luxuriating in eternal sleep
Forlorn; bereft of golden
(slippered) opportunities I weep;
Three score and four years
replete with mailer daemons,
hence mindset adrip
with self denouncing expletive filled bleep
unwritten expressed recriminations
wielded upon figurative head of wimpy blip;
decades elapsed at light speed clip
as the world turned days of mein kampf
