Premium Member Xenophobia- Target the Bird Not the Tree
Seems as a country full of saints and carriers of purity
as all crimes are interestingly attributed to outsiders
tagging them the influential teachers of immorality
yet such crime lovers show the capability of posing a threat
through the embarrassment caused on locals due to their industrious nature

Understanding the...

Fireproof 'The Movie"
I watched a good movie today that brought tears to my eyes,
A young married couple were on the verge of divorce, but neither knew why.
He was a firefighter and brave as could be, 
She worked in a hospital to help provide for family.

Somewhere something went...

Hide the Details

Everybody got a Hollywood life story
to tell
More meat on the bone
give juicier bites 
to sell
Nobody ever turns in a tarnished silver screenplay
Those warts and mistakes
get Photoshop casting couch edited away
Baby Jane rude attitude don’t make the cut
Knife in the back ...
unfriend me Alan Ladd attacks

Premium Member The Princess And The Plebs

She always thought she was a cut above others

The most beautiful, the richest , the best

A self confidence unbearably arrogant and explosive

When with her, peoples patience were put to the test


Outer beauty, plastic enhancements, riches is all that mattered

She was insincere, rude and vain

Never gave...

Premium Member Calculating Public Health
I wouldn't want you to walk away
with any miscalculations about me.

I am about as wild and crazy as society will allow
without confinement for my own protection.

Whenever I read a self-marketing sign

Please Help...
Vacancies of home and body,
Needing to be filled.

I feed the bearers of these signs
of...

The End of the World Just In Time
I was watching a TV debate 
The programme was running too late
Several topics had to be discussed
The participants they would not be rushed

The studio lights were set low
As arguments swept to and fro
Fingers pointing and tempers got lost
In this satire of low budget cost

Political issues...

Premium Member Dear God Its Meatloaf Just Add Ketchup
Things need to get straight  

Somewhere there are pearly gates  

Using goodness as bait  

White and mystical  

Healthy and physical  

Then there is standing there in the street  

A man filled with theatrical heat  

Underneath the dark sky...

Coming Home To You Is So Easy For Me
coming home to you for me is so easy
i simply let the others stray to keep from feeling queasy

what can i get out there that i cannot get from
for your heart is loyal and your sincerity tried and true

my only lying will come when i...

Lousy Payouts
The machine lost its touch 
time to collect, more than my mo'
Encryption, low budget skills
she needs a warning sign.

Losing It
I can't find it
I lost it
The keys don't FIT
things don't mean S$!&

I lost it
sparks gone, couldn't keep it lit
just needed an outlet
instead became a target

Can't get it
not in the right bracket
anytime Im one way they're the opposite
while I make the case, turn it into a...

Thought
Lights off and it's cold as the old Fox.../
Those white walls and a door feel quite alot like Fort Knox. /
I got a window the height of my hand to look out/
And if someone notices, it does (them) No good the urge to shout./
All my...

Rocky and Bullwinkle
We always laughed when Bullwinkle said,
Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!
He and Rocky of course were the stars,
But there was more to it than that

Boris Badenov was bad enough,
With Natasha Fatale don't you know
If she asked, "Why, only one darlink?"
Boris replied, "Is...

Premium Member Invasion Usa
There is a fifties film fallen into obscurity.
However, it is now available on DVD.
The stars include Gerald Mohr and Dan O’Herlihy.
I purchased it to see out of curiosity.
This is a movie not too many know.
I last saw it on television over forty years ago.
I was...

Premium Member Stamps
Stamps, perforated passport squares,
Took me oft where I wished to be
On my own low budget world tour
Warm, safely tucked in dad’s armchair.

I loved to dream in dad’s warm chair
A young wallflower who would dare
Brave adventures safe in my head
Free from boldness, courage, and dread.

Flipping album...

Shirt
I sold my special shirt
For twenty five dollars, babe,
I can't affort the transport costs
To get on the bus and go
Let my eyes caress my love.
I can afford to move around
With nothing on, for my babe,
I will do anything just to be
With her.

You never left me,
I...
