Bill and Blanche set off, to the 'Yorkshire Show' they did go
T'was a yearly trip, and they would always show.

Each time Bill says to Blanche ‘On that elicopter I’d like to ride.’
Blanche always replied’ but it's twenty quid Bill’ and then she and Bill sighed.

'Twenty...

Quid Pro Quo?!
Ascending unto the fourth pinnacles auspicious plyth ~


To quantumly observe these plateaus regions of oeuvre


Molten monograms of monarchies scripted immure; immolating


These gravitating exhibits of perceptions inter alia


Past particles of meticulously latticed perplexities....

....Quid pro quo?!

'Twas the night before Christmas and impeachment was in the air
 Trump kept tweeting that it was unfair
 The truth had come out, but he continued to lie
 But Moscow Mitch assured him that victory was nigh

 But then Pence started to grin
 Hoping for...

Quid Pro Quo
Can you make some space for me?
I will sit there beside you
I will not leave you
Listen to the sounds of waves
Look at the bright moon
Listen to the silence of the moon
The moon and I are very peaceful
Both are trying hard to hide the dark side
Let...

Quid Pro Quo
You’re going around town telling all who care to listen
that I’ve got an axe to grind, I’m picking on your brain.
But you know damn well it is nothing like that at all,
you have been nasty and you are acting like a fool.

Remember when you were...

Political Quid Pro Quo
Written: by Miracle Man
3-22-2020

Ignoring the obvious is not sly like a fox,
and most Solutions come, from thinking outside the box..

Many concentrate on blaming, not the problem at hand,
as political discourse helps fear to sweep our land.

Self preservation is always, the name of...

Quid Pro Quo
Will you ever reach the summit
Where all you see is stretched below
When after all you’ve faced
Has become a flickering glow
After all the difficult tries
And the shallow echoes
The dilemmas and the fears
From the things you didn’t know
When it all falls down
Like a whiteout blizzards snow
When there’s...

"Quid pro quo is a Latin phrase that literally means
"something for something." 
The phrase usually indicates an exchange of goods 
or services of roughly equivalent value."



Jack and Jill went up the hill

To a little log cabin filled

with bedding and candy pills. 

With a little skill

Limit To Stupidity
How many people are that stupid
Asked the hot and they brought the tepid,
For a sweet tale released the vapid
Reflect on hatred,. "No, on Cupid"
Get us The tasty "No Insipid"?

How many would wait to spend last quid
On water for being Nature's liquid?
How many people that much...
