The Shrewd GamblerPropensity sparks
Betting in numbers to win
Probable goals failed.
Tried bet once more though
Best loved numbers didn't hit
Long waited win ends.
Money for other things
Risking bet to win some more
Awake while asleep.
Dreamt came before dawn
Whilst numbers gone out boxes
Jotted down traces.
Shrewd Gambler wandered
Vivid signs pooped up in...

Eagles Beak , Shrewd Peek...Sharp piercing eyes with far searching light
Familiar with the basic rule of fittest survive
Prey bird knows well to use its keen eyesight
Water bodies not just their abode but a guide
Their soaring style matches with swift air tide
Each hour a battle of sea for living is...

Shrewd Resonance Rima DissolutasThere was no room for her honesty,
words turned from a false narrative;
Witnessing the start of this sham
birthed a brand new breed of justice;
Bustling bonfires burn so brightly;
Stay and fight? Her prerogative;
She stole back a stolen rhythm
just to toss in shrewd resonance;
Gospel sung from...

Shrewd
Nothing much in the bar,
This man from yonder,
His alien, adulterated accent
Sets the bar in stitches,
Yet,
He whines for a twenty,
For a stick of smoke,
He egresses for a minute,
In a corner secluded,
He pulls out a pack,
Snatches a cigarette, lights it,
Enters the bar smoking,
I am just peeping with...

Shrewdin a manor of time it will tell
it's been so reconciled

sold separately no gun
but a tall tale on web buy now black market
but fishes fishes in your suit case and back pack

So Shrewd Horn HaikuSo Shrewd Horn Haiku
If he was so shrewd,
How can he ever be rude
Pretty interlude.
Serve peace a la mode
And for justice have a code
Never let erode.
Like my peace served straight
The we all can celebrate
Best to not be late.
With God peace survives
Exists in all of our lives
He...

Shrewd and BrashHow does one survive among legendary and wealthy men
by being shrewd and brash?
Be a menacing wolf, not a fearful lamb!
Learn their secret to unleash power and you'll win!
How did Trump and gates amass riches
by inheritance or using their heads?
Fill up your piggy jar to the...

Be Shrewd To Be RescuedDon't hastily conclude,
All the facts, you include
By being always shrewd,
Have a pleasant mood,
Toward none, be rude,
Approach be not crude,
Wisely if you have viewed,
Mysteries, you can denude,
Life must be improved,
Talents must be proved,
Our skill must be improved,
We must be by all approved,
Bad things must be removed,
If...

A Shrewd While Rude and Crude DudeA Shrewd While Rude and Crude Dude
Matt Whitaker for sure.
As can be, Whitaker has really been shrewd,
And we should toss in lewd as well as crude;
In came;
Brain lame;
An ignorant, inept and outright dumb dude.

My analysis of Whitaker before his hearing
which ain't too good....

people
those who want to enjoy this life on others shoulders,
people
those who live in holy places only by reciting the scriptures
without any other work,
people
those who think that contemplation of religion is the...

Hero of An HourToday ignorance uttered words in the court of kings,
as we waited too long for coruscation of brilliancy,
serendipity smiled on nescient,
and crowned rebellion for one hour.
utterances from idle lips ,
foist on passerby along nature’s path,
As filthy rebel from the woodcock progeny,
Spoke with grandeur of...
