Best Maximise Poems

Once again it’s Saturday; the day when footy reigns supreme.
The Dogs are up against the Cats, the premier favoured team,
but I’ve got no doubts the mighty Dogs will surely cope with that.
I couldn’t think of nothing worse than being beaten by a Cat.

But then I...

Lets just get on the mend.' Give amazon and others a holiday space
And more Important yourselves' just step off the goods race

The mechanical components, the valve that pumps my heart 
The reactive nerve endings that serve a sensory stimulus 
The tear ducts that latently only lend lubrication 
The silly little practical necessary body bits, pieces and parts 
 
I yawn & it reminds me…  I...

OK

It’s ok to think I'm disabled, it’s not ok to ignore my atheism;
It’s ok to know I'm firstly an atheist, it’s not ok to assume this has always been obvious; 
It’s ok to understand that I use a different typing method, it is not ok...

Flamboyant extravagance now infra dig
High class labels embarrassing
Enormous houses now freezing cold
Investment bankers – hiding the gold
Green philosophies put into action
Recycled living the latest fashion
Anxiety political personal basic
Maximise optimise – the cant of the wise
Expression depression opinions outpour
Anger, betrayal, corruption and more
Mortgage arrears fuel fears...

We love to make lists,
To describe, name, number.
How can it have value,
If not on my list.
As logger I stand
Before the green forest,
The numbered trees
Are ones to cut.
The forest cut down
Is only to me
Bigger box to live in,
A shiny new car,
The species I slaughter
Are not for...

Your smile speaks a lovely language...
Even the deaf can decipher the message.
It is not locked in your lips...
From your sweet soul it slips...
Your flawless face scintillates the stage.

Your beauty basks at the shores of bliss,
I want to maximise moments like this...
To be lost in warm...

Poetry Soup And Numbers

He, he, he ...I think I have got it nailed right on the nob…
After so many uploadings of poems without stop…

Being a fledgeling  poet as self declared and promoted…
Readership numbers are quiet but crucial endorsements..

Do not cry over the past, it has gone;
Forge ahead, the deed has been done.
Worry not over the future, God holds it;
let not present pains make you quit.
Today's skies are bright and beautiful,
maximise it to make your world wonderful.
Worthless is the rainfall of yesterdays,
you cannot...

Moulded electric plugs, go to landfill the earlier ones were sectional and re-useable,
 Copper tanks kept water
Hot all day; maybe two days, if they were bigger.' They were removed in the interests of
Sustainability..? Pre 1990  tv's had valves inside, they cost less to run,...

recognition of our true constitution reveals
we are not merely limited mind-body combine
our soul being encased in five sheaths or coverings
of which the first and grossest is the material organism
the second our pranic energy field, which keeps body alive
third our lower analytical mind or what we...

Not so very long ago
When I wanted to bake
I would go to my cookbooks
For a recipe to make

Tattered and stained they were
History literally splattered on
Notes written like ‘doubles well’ 
Or ‘sponge cake by Yvonne’

….sometimes even a photo…..

Today for recipes I scroll the net
Searching methodically
For the...

You became a narcissist entitled manipulative and lazy 
you began to lie so much you did it on the daily 
wooing people over as you told them their own story 
knowing things you need to say so others do not worry 

Maximise the first impression...

I know I’m just another
stating above and better
trying to place letters
to a beat with base and treble 
as my only form of credit 
to impress so they give merit
Offer opportunity 
tasked to write a tune to see
If I can light a room with ease
as ideas...
