Pure hands, bloody lamb

Fight the war - of the dark grave

Truth prevails - Amen

A drunkard, a thief and a con man,
Who was known by the name Greedy Jack,
Lived a life so vile Satan watched him awhile,
Said, "Of sin in his life there's no lack."

He decided to pay Jack a visit.
Thought with this man he'd have some fun.
Said, "Jack,...

Leaves safeguard my skin
From sun rays burning my chin.
Their death’s a hick’s sin

Green trees kiss the wild
While berries nourish the young.
‘No trees!’ means ‘No child!’

The damp air we breathe
Helps the soul to sit and read.
Dear leaves, pay some heed...

Esther and PD
Sitting on a tree.
Esther touched PD, repeatedly 
A poetry soup violator was she.

Then came PD, and smacked her around
Showed her what true women are all about


Esther the Greedy..........

GREEDY POACHING

Rhino poachers often hunt at night
When the Rhino has poor eye sight.
These prehistoric creatures
Cannot distinguish human features.
But with a well-developed sense of smell
Fortunately they can always tell
When danger or a poacher is close,
Thanks to their sensitive nose.
Every horn that they take back,
And Rhino body...

Luke treats eating like a contest
An all that you can eat
Luke scoffs down everything
Fills himself down to his feet

Today he swallowed down six doughnuts
He gobbled up some pies
He munched his way through a chocolate cake
Two hamburgers and some fries

Luke was very pleased with himself
Acting like...

(a Four-verse Cinquain)

Parched
red roses
bow their heads
in pain filled surrender,
finished.

Faded
holly hocks
give up hope,
too sad to care,
colorless.

Wilted 
sweet peas
loose their talons,
shrivel, curl in sorrow,
die.

Healthy 
white pine
sucks up moisture
and grants no mercy,
thrives....

Cowardly this loathsome fellow
In old west they’d call him yellow
I guess that was his biggest flaw
Jealous greater than Othello

He wanted more, the more he saw
Hauling around his gaping jaw
What’s to come of this man of greed
Lied until his scruples were raw

He stole from innocents in...

Money spent on one big lavish wedding jubilee

may have been better saved for the divorce lawyer's fee!

My friends, this saga slowly unfurls
 a love story that went quickly awry,
 seems greedy Bob dated a pair of girls
 when with one, to the other he’d lie.
 
The homlier girl’s name was Edith
 who, nonetheless Bob was fond of,
 but, greedy Bob wanted...

greedy man die greedy man celebrate
one man meat 
is another man's poison
it doesn't change
birds of same feather
it doesn't change them 
fighting to eat off the 
bread of another
while they grow rich 
their greed grow 
with high competition
with a life of no satisfaction

greedy man die greedy...

In modern enterprises
All 
In belief
They believe 
In
Make your dog 
In starve
So then
He will follow you
And all 
Profit
In the belly 
Of stock
This greedy
Belly 
Insatiable...

The whole wideworld is very wide,
to contain my can and your container.
So why fighting with frown face?
over nothing about no one at nowhere.
Let no great greed grind your heart,
to make illegal money on monkeys.
Collect no naughty nut from Nathan in the north
and sell no shell...

GREEDY AND JEALOUSY

The haves and the have not, they all stand at equal pulverized
Stretching their hands for arms giving, yes we are all vulnerable and vagabonds
Having money is valueless in the absence of helping hand, skills and ability
Maybe, maybe not–I need you and you want...
