A Substitute For This LonelinessAnother charming woman is
sharing with me what I used
to share with you without guilt,
even without a sad feeling or thought:
to find a substitute for this loneliness...
for that deep void you left inside!
The cell phone always rang
at the end of the evening;
and I was so...

Mean Old Substitute TeacherThe teacher we all had grown to love,
Was nowhere to be found.
In walked this hefty, old man,
Who slammed his suitcase on the ground.
He had a beard like Santa Claus,
And was husky like him, too.
In fact, as I recall….
There was a huge hole in his left...

The Substitute TeacherThe substitute teacher comes in all grins, giggles, and smiles.
Her resume’ runs on for a thousand and six hundred miles.
She is perky and ready, and thinks it is going to be fun.
By noon she’s ready to call it quits we even saw one run.
Her hair...

Sufficient SubstituteI live life in an unhealthy abyss
Of a dream I see as a sufficient substitute
Of a Savior
I work and work to be a man like this
To fall in love and be in my own heaven
As I play God
I shake as I dream of her lips
The...

Do You Have a SubstituteDo u have, a substitute?
Hey buddy!

Recently heard according to latest scoop
Everyone thoroughly enjoys Poetry Soup
Promiscuous Souper some want to become
But sex in soup sure sounds kind of dumb.

Better have many more rounds at...

There Is No SubstituteThere is no substitute for the truth,
a lesson we must teach our youth.
We stretch our freedom of choice,
and misuse the freedom of voice.
For we love an alternative to the standard,
only to have our values be slandered.
The alternative way never ends up as good,
as...

Substitute For IceI
had
realised
that
the
size
of
the
ice
was
nice,
but
the
price
didn't
recognise
my
sacrifice.
So,i
had
to
compromise
the
ice
for
some

to
minimise.
But
some
spies
came
to
join
Me
In
my
rice;
promising
to
buy
some
ice
after
the
rice.
But
In
Their
eyes;
I
saw
lies.
So
i
refused
to
harmonise,
but
dey
criticised,
and
threatened...

Light Verse
The Substitute Shrinkas if it was so easy to
trade & throw around the
vulnerability of a
human being who’s tripped,
fallen
crashing
down
with

as if the life of the doctor
mattered more,
as if giving advice
(however relevant or
helpful)
warranted a monetary
reward,
as if there was to be no
attachment
allowed,
because all along the doc was
planning his/her...
