Premium Member Spuds For All Occasions
White potato, Sweet potato, Hot potato, Irish.
White, sweet, hot, and Irish..
Spuds for all occasions.

We fry'em.We slice'em.We dice'em.We bake'em.
We mash'em.We hash'em.We whip'em, then dip'em.
I like'em next to my hamburger.French fried.

If you're hungry girl? Just give me a call.
Bring the knife, the fork, the plate, and you...

Premium Member Remembering Occasions, Special People
Today, as I languish in intense intellection,
Recalling the former assigned to my course.
Questioning why this versified collection,
But knowing they arrived by a vital force.

Each imparted entities to my well being,
perhaps, on occasion, an unbiased voice.
Embedding ideas when not clearly seeing,
Then leaving me to contemplate my...

Lifes Saddest Occasions
She looks in the mirror
And the tears rolls down her face
The lines she never notice before
Are now all over the place

She fumbles with a cigarette 
As she tries to get it light
She heard the knock on the door
Asking if she’s alright

Every one comes up to...

Fictions On Occasions
Walked in my topsiders
Another path of lies and outsiders
Sashayed dauntlessly in a setting of acquaintance
Laugh, drink, and dance… Forget the stance

For every hour’s worth of deceit
This lie is my fuel to withstand my emotional defeat
A night pumped with intoxication
Denial is worth the suffocation.

Forced by circumstances
I’m...

Speeches On Different Occasions
We always eulogize a child on his birth   
We also eulogize a person on his death     
On both occasions he is unable to appreciate the praise  
At birth he is unable to understand the words  
At death...

Taxes Are For the Poor and Maybe On Special Occasions the Rich
An immigrant was walking, walking towards me
I said " stop right there!, and observe and see"

Where is your taxes and wages you earned?
Then again Uncle Sam will never learn

Keep em' out this holy country land
But who will build this border at hand?

Maybe it be Pepe...

Special Occasions
I was nothing but a wall flower
in my early teens
Went to house parties and stood against the wall;
watching everybody dance, grooving on the floor,
wasn't no fun at all
Until my oldest sister taught me how to dance one day
She taught me how to do the hustle,
she...

away from home overnight

exceptional times

Premium Member October Occasions
A forenoon mist increased toward absence,
whilst every part of listless shadows clears,
vibrant October stage thousands of cheers,
as columns of trees in theme bring balance.

Advents of crimson hints and orange glaze,
dew exhaled whispers, upon ousted leaves,
the caress of a late summer breeze heaves,
pumpkin skies carve a...

Premium Member Happy Occasions
A party is to celebrate
  one of life's happy occasions
A get-together reaches out
  to folks of diverse persuasion

Going out on the town
  gets us up from our couches
Though going out to eat
  may turn our stomachs to slouches

The main thing's we...

Premium Member The Occasions
A good day there would be little blood
A bad day, she could paint the room
Though, that was a definite mistake
But then again, she was just a beginner
Not a virgin as such
She was never a virgin
The stomach was the best place to cut
It was hidden
Like the...
