footle-note ..
The author would like to confirm that no deaths occured , during the creation of this piece. All 
suffering was kept to a minimum,as the surgery was sound-proofed .Pain and suffering , 
caused to waiting patients , was due to being forced to read 3yr old mags. Seemingly the 
news was less dire back then.All enamel&blood stained swabs were dumped in the 
appropriate utensils,as per Geneva Convention(section ix, site xxxiv).The cleansing of soiled 
underwear took place ,under supervision, with enviroment friendly detrgents & all offending 
materials disposed of , in accordance with the KyotoAgreement(section mlx11).
Must dash !! , as I have to visit that other sadist, the vet ,with our cat.He is due for the snips! 
( the cat , not the vet ).. Here Tom..Pshhhwshhh ..

Premium Member Poetic Justice

I landed in Poet's Court
Caught me speeding in my Sonnet
They judged it a rhyme crime
According to the officer's pentometer
I was doing 50 in a 25 word zone
I'm pleading for comma relief
Hoping to be released to free verse
Under supervision of course
Fortunately there's no sentencing in poetry
Maybe they'll just revoke my poetic license

Pieces of Eternity (Seasons Finale)

Maybe it’s unacceptable 
Live a life capable of a true fable 
True friends never end 
But take you back to where it all began 
But hey misery gave us something to believe in 
Stress became a greater award as we achieved sin 
What could I say? Our savior died on a cross tough as pig skin 
Never once cried over the loss 
Forbidden fruit, Eden garden 
Excuse me, my lord, I beg your pardon 
And so what if these medics carry life in a carton 
But I ain’t trippin 
Simply because this is me until my dying day 
Please stop crying, you know I can’t stay 
I’m going to be the same until my dying day 
Over in that casket is where I’m trying to lay 
That’s right until my dying day 
True lost souls from the dark side 
Forever, we as mortals ride 
Peace is nothing, I fend for quiet time 
Rebels in riot lines 
Previous high school graduates 
Symbols of an adjective running toward fate 
True personality suffer the privilege of inmates 
How could you hesitate to ask 
There’s no stranger under this mask 
Lonely and unholy, who’s there to console me? 
I want to get away, forever restless 
You can see my similarities with the ocean 
I’m stress less 
Because this is me until my dying day 
Please stop crying, you know I can’t stay 
I’m going to be the same until my dying day 
Over in that casket is where I’m trying to lay 
My son, my friend 
We are but pieces of eternity 
Mesh on, mesh off 
Even at our best times we’re soft 
Who’s to say I’d regret my decision 
To lead a sinners life without God’s supervision 
On a one man mission 
And I know I don’t come around much 
Got my palms in reality 
Searching for something softer to touch 
Whisper in my ear, death makes me blush 
And Hell only flatters me 
One and one, through matter the winds scatter me 
I ain’t trippin, baby girl get off your knees 
You’re in the arms of a future me 
And I can’t see heaven from a distance 
Fire me over clouds like a piston 
Marching through blood 
But it’s all mud and water to Darkhouse 
Stand still let me mark my spouse 
Live my life as an outcast 
How could you even picture me at my last? 
Dear lord show some mercy on my followers 
Bless those that swallow dust to follow us 
No need to borrow sympathy 
Unforgiving sorrow made my enemies envy me


Premium Member The Wayward Male

Her Mother says I'm not that bright
      in need of supervision.
A wayward male who would likely fail
      to make a good decision.
So I've lost my friends... they've disappeared,
      my wife gave them the boot.
To up our standing and improve our branding
      with people of high repute.

My diet's better so I'm eating greens,
      no beer or fatty foods.
But I tell you plain, I try in vain
      but I'm in a foul mood.
I dream of things I cannot have
      like burgers doused in sauce.
A chicken wing and some onion rings,
      all hidden from the Boss.

But her senses keen as she's rarely tricked
      when I try to cheat.
She sets me straight then sets my plate
      and tells me what to eat.
Our viewing habits are oft discussed
     and we are of one accord.
No tennis courts or winter sports
      and no watching zombie hordes.

My gaming suffers as she disapproves
     so my Xbox gathers dust.
Though when out of sight, I still sneak at night
      to satisfy my lust.
When I talk to her... she twists my words
     to points of her own choosing.
A terse reply, she then starts to cry
     which makes it more confusing.

What keeps me here? I love my wife,
      would never find another.
So I will obey and I'm here to stay
      just to piss off her dear Mother.

Car Court

CAR   COURT


Enter,   the older   heavyweight  steel  giant,
The bailiff,  a   1954 Hudson,  reads unhesitant : 
On the docket for this morning :  guilty by implication  -  a  Trabant, 

In close custody with a  Cutlass Supreme for supervision.
Next on the docket:  a Pinto for likely  gas-tank explosion.
Third  on the docket:  an English-made car (any marque) -  body corrosion.
 
Lawyer for the prosecution, a pretentious character, a  gas guzzler SUV
4x4 off-road with winch  -  for Saturday use on driveway  only -
Hangs out with  Vettes;   and uses  NO2  in fuel.   Who?Drugs?  Not me!

Downbeat  guy as the  defence  counsel ,  a solid no nonsense Hummer,
A real  enviro-bummer,
Klutzy  ugly and personality like a mack truck in summer.

Trabant coughed its way to the stand.
Clerk of court  Volkswagen, order in hand,
Read the indictment quietly, efficiently, bland.

Prosecution began with  noisy opening musical-horn tunelets
The jury,  all serious-minded  stolid  Volvos and Toyota Starlets
Were not impressed.  Hummer clumsily interrupted with an objection, “Let’s

Stop, on the grounds of precedent,”  but at this point  Pinto reversed,
Crushed its trunk  and its gas-tank exploded,  and worst , 
Hit the  the English car : and into flames they both burst.

Cutlass argued with the SUV, which  was winched away pending sentence.
Case against the English car dismissed from lack of evidence.
Trabant was deported back to Germany: no import licence

Overseeing all these proceedings :   the ever-reliable,  I-won’t-budge,
The  I-have-a-spotless-reputation,  I-hold-no-grudge, 
The mechanical virgin,  the silent Rolls Royce  as judge.

Love with your head

Many fall in love without
presence of mind.
They repeat the mod cliché
    that love is blind...

But sensible matchmaking
chooses more feasible soulmates.
Kids need adult  supervision
in the matter of dates.

Love is a very special emotion
that causes much commotion
in the heart and soul,
where it has a big role.
Love's possible anytime, anywhere,
and many are caught by it unawares.

But don't let love be just a stupor
from which you wake up in horror.
Don't let love be a one night stand drink
from which you get a hangover.
Committed Love shouldn't be a fad or spell
from which you just get over...

When young minds play their own cupid
To many that has brought heartache and sorrow.
Underage kids dating is even more stupid
They usually regret on the morrow.

Reason doesn't work in a fit of passion.
So its best to love with
your mind and consultation.
Having love affairs without deliberation
is harmful fashion.
Head over heels
without discussion,
with well-wishers
may cause concussion
headache
of so-called lovers...

Use your head before your heart
Not every spark 
    should start a fire....


they say that children can’t be psychopaths

they say
children can’t be psychopaths—
as if innocence were a law
instead of a rumor.

as if the soul comes standard
with warning labels
and a conscience
pre-installed.

but some of them speak
like accountants of pain,
measuring tone,
studying delay,
watching faces collapse
for data.

they don’t rage.
they don’t cry.
they note.

they ask questions
that sound harmless
until later
when you realize
they already knew the answer
and wanted to see
how you’d lie.

no voice saying stop.
or maybe the voice is there
and they’ve learned
to mute it
like a bad radio station.

they hurt things
not for pleasure,
not even for curiosity,
but to see
if the world flinches
or stays quiet.

sometimes it stays quiet.
sometimes that teaches them
everything.

are they born this way?
or did something leave early—
a hand that didn’t reach,
a word that never came,
a look that should have said
you matter
and didn’t?

we love clean answers.
they don’t exist here.

hope?
maybe hope is just
intervention with good timing.
maybe it’s medication.
maybe it’s distance.
maybe it’s supervision
that never sleeps.

or maybe hope is a story
we tell ourselves
so we can keep eating dinner
while the future sharpens itself
down the hall.

some kids grow out of it.
some grow into it.
some never choose—
they just continue
like weather.

you want a verdict.
I don’t have one.

I’ve seen monsters
with birth certificates.
I’ve seen saints
raised in hell.

and I’ve seen silence
do most of the damage
while everyone waited
for proof.

Premium Member The Early 1960s

Oh… how I miss that time! With it’s Saturday morning cartoons.
Not to mention, daily comics stolen from Papa’s newspaper, too!
Saturday was way better! With Snoopie, Little Abner, and friends.
Now I can’t find a newspaper! Or any more of those ‘News Stands’!

It would have been wonderful, to bring Dragon to ‘Show and Tell’!
To go outside to play with my friends, instead of texting from cells!
Play ‘Hide and Seek’ together, instead of computer games, I think!
Always walking with friends, not separately, driven everywhere…

But life goes on, they do say. Sigh! As we’ve lost those golden rules.
Drugs were rumored somewhere else, now at our children’s school.
We used to play at a neighbors house, now, they’re all out at the Mall.
Why can’t we just have fun, and with safe neighborhoods, all around?

Where are all the children, and beloved stay at home, kind of Moms?
Instead the children are in daycares, forgetting they even have a Mom.
They’re gaining a group mentality, and bullying is far, out of control.
Where is all the supervision? Will the children ever, be the same again?

I miss my Mom’s good cooking, with only occasional fast food stuff.
Where are GP rated TV shows: they’re all now, filled with violent crime.
We used to love the babysitter, now it’s TV’s with hundreds of channels.
But best of all, we talked and talked, not texted, all day into a cell phone!

If I could give one thing to my child, one day in the past, would be my gift.
But he might not even understand, what I’m trying to give to him… at all.
I expect he’d be bored, and find the first opportunity to try to get away.
He’d, laugh at ever going back there, again! … I could cry! … Heavy, Sigh!

Powers That Be

To the powers that be. 
I've allowed you to view 
my weakness like an 
opportunity. Give school 
children fatherless 
babies, and preach their 
nudity to the 
congregation. Pagan 
prostitute purchasing 
pastor preaches to a 
godless nation. Commit 
adultery upon the body 
of Christ and a ct 
sinless. Thou shalt not 
eat of the fruit of good 
knowledge, lest thou be 
skinless. Take a wrong 
turn like Brenda and get 
hit by a bullet train. Of 
alcohol abuse, drug 
addiction, and mental 
strain. We don't live 
under the same sun. 
When you were 
wealthy, my poverty 
had already begun. You 
got to university, I died 
from hunger in Somalia. 
Because of my skin, I've 
become victim to 
sickness, AIDS and 
malaria. My protests 
end in bloodshed 
because of gunshots. If 
we hungered not to 
perish, we'd do nothing 
to fill those empty pots. 
String my wings with 
the chords of your 
swollen affection. Allow 
your Jacobs to rule the 
nation, they're the 
masters of perfection. 
Your nation of rapist 
gay men has narrowed 
the country's vision. You 
sodomize my sisters in 
your office,under cop 
supervision. You molest 
my brothers and torture 
a nation. Kill my spirit 
entirely, and resurrect 
an evil nation.

Superwife!

Supervision is an answer:
Yes, I know one superdancer,
But it is also the limit:
He and she are 2 unlimited,
And they dance very good too,
We can see - not only imagine,
It is truth -
Not a legend, don't confuse,
Please, show us again the holiday for eye,
Because it seems to me
That I have also the only one naive
In which I am always in fever,
Another I keep in the bank of MTV:
They always promise not to do more
Than we are ready to sing, dance
And to live! No war!
With big peace in this romance,
It's a main reason:
I am the supervisor
Of my car, house, office, business
And sometimes an executor on the kitchen
Where my wife is a super manager of all
Cocktails and super tutor
Of me good
And cute!

Premium Member Watching Homer Struggle

Watching Homer struggle
to explain how a god wounded by a mortal
cannot die but may hereafter live with minor pain

and the humor when that god
complains to Jove that His supervision of His daughter
is inadequate and His Love too unconditional

while Diomed (or Tydides)
wreaks havoc on the Trojans and Hector
gives it back (in kind)

anatomically correct descriptions
of spears piercing jawbones (and groins)
sons without fathers hunting and fishing thereafter

alone. Written
amazingly presciently!
as a metaphor for Vietnam (our war)

forgotten consensually
as this generation slips lazily away
to Hades (or kayaks to the huckleberries)

where the lights are always blue, gentian actually,
supper's served at 4 and former adversaries
pass the heavy hanging time playing pinochle (and pool).

We're selling the house to pay the taxes.
Pallas Athena wars among the men
from the axle of her chariot

and Venus is injured by Diomed,
standing in the field of battle where she never should have been,
in her adorable hand.

What has this to do with Solomon in jail.
Not the Jewish king, a black American male,
same thing.

Your children can be failed at school and marched to war.
You can be taxed and sent to gaol for the honor of it.
anyone lived in a pretty how town.

We have no obligation
to perform the Iliad or read poems and even Homer
considers Achilles effete (compared to Hector)

and Odysseus is wrong even when he's right.
Therefore, modern man explores
the mathematics of circles in coordinate planes and their tangents

when (sooner or later)
the secret of warp speed is discovered
expansion of the species will be limitless and permanent.

Not Criminally Responsible

Not criminally responsible

In a few seconds it was over, Tim never had a chance.
He was killed, decapitated actually. The police arrested the killer 
with Tim's head in hand. The trial judge ordered a psychiatric exam,
and it was determined that he (the killer) was schizophrenic, 
and at the time of the killing was experiencing a psychotic episode. 
The judge declared him to be NCR (Not criminally responsible) 
and ordered him to go to a medical facility for treatment for an 
undetermined time. After a few years, it was observed that the killer understood that he needed his medication to be able to live without 
being a danger to himself or to society in general. After eight years 
the killer was released back into the general population, under minimum supervision. Tim's mother was distraught at the news, and was rendered speechless. Was justice served?

Telly the Trendsetter

:)           

What kids are watching on telly
are crimes and crimes in all variety! 

Crimes of hate 
crimes of passion
acting it out at shocking rate
thinking in some wild fashion
then ending up cell mates! 

When kids watch their movie heroes
shoot down people with the gun
they are incited to do the same
to achieve some thrill and fun.

When they see their very film star
slash someone's throat in a fit of anger
they think well of crimes of rage
and plunge everybody else into danger.

The tendency to portray the violent scene
luridly and shockingly on the Big Screen

Ah even for the small screen, tis the gory
that makes for the dark and thrilling story.

Now that technology's long opened this pandora's box
the dispersal of amplified social ills ain't no hoax

The rowdy hoodlums and reckless gangsters
are simply by-products of Tv influences
The world watches the thriving of the bully-boy pranksters
passively in helpless terror of their offences.


It's all portrayal of the vulgar, the obscene
by that devious Silver Screen

And the horror movie
though it may seem groovy
begets the horrendous
and drills evil thoughts subliminally
into the subconscious! 

It's an unrestrained dark faking
of real life reality exaggerating

Whether it's Bollywood in the East
or it's Hollywood in the West
they don't merely impart tactics of defence
but rather those of aggressive offence

Viewing those gruesome swashbuckling films
gives rise to morbid sadistic whims

Flipping through the TV channels
just ponder if the telly's the perfect channel
of information is it a proper panel? 

Dad always tells me, 'fear ye the roaches' flicking antennae? 
While you oughtta fear the influence
of 'em' flickering images by dish antennae'.

Then a mere single merit that I dug
as I drank cappucino in my mug
that atleast one couldn't live in a bubble
daily watching the bubblebug.


Ah but then tougher gun laws couldn't halt
even underage shooting sprees
Rather it's stringent scanning of Tv content
that might make it all cease

Parental supervision too tis gravely essential
Should've been of parental code quintessential

So the next time you catch your teen
absorbed and engrossed while glued to the screen
Just sleuth a bit just to make sure
that for the x-rated he's not too keen!

School and My Future

My future happiness depended upon school, 
They’re understanding of religious older parents,
Them constraining them with supervision, 
So that I could have autonomy in my garments. 

I mean, my parents let me wear what I liked, 
But were unspeakably forceful poignantly, 
Regarding who was going to dress and shower me: 
Women, not men who could interact with me perfectly. 

I wasn’t asking for all male carers, 
Just one or two out of maybe five, 
And I even offered to employ male nurses, 
Rather than just anybody alive. 

But my mum was disgusted at my suggestion, 
Said it turned her stomach and made her ill, 
Posited that I was not in my right mind, 
Said that I made her queasy and gave her a chill. 

The school’s social services seemed traditional, 
Just like their toilet facilities, old and outdated; 
The social worker had white, permed curly hair,
And so for parent disputes you could be slated. 

So I never got the help I required and needed, 
For my first care package at Glasgow University, 
So I suffered from rejection, shortness and selfishness, 
From my carers who were supposed to offer identity.

The wardens made it better for me every day, 
Reprimanded them for disrespect and impoliteness,
But I never even imagined that voluntary carers,
Could suffice for my own future astuteness. 

It upset my whole life, the schools neglect and indifference, 
When I think that living success could have been sorted out, 
My personal dignity and freedom could have been secured, 
With a bit of determination and secular, atheistic liberal clout. 

School is really just about your future, 
It claims it by its very definition, 
And the whole child should be taken and loved, 
Not just his or her abilities with cognition.

Premium Member Destroyer Vs James - 3

DESTROYER vs' GARETH # 3

You hit me a bit on the 3rd round
I'm not easy to knock on the ground
Literarily I'm still on my feet
In poetry, there are no side effects
Still your words have no sound

I came out of nowhere, like a threat
Your mind blew a cold sweat
Like a cigarette, I smoked you:-(
I made you sit on your poo
You don't have what it takes for Russian Roulette:-(

I put your file in a shame book
Stuck you in a cell hole, like a crook
My identity I give it a twirl
My only pearls  found in a Play Girl
Between my legs, take one last look:-) 

Gareth, permission to call a lawyer
Surrender your pen, to the destroyer
Apparently this you did not enjoy
Sentence of community service, WATERBOY!!
Under the supervision, "I am your new employer."

You had your head start
You miss like a blind dart
Now you called the last stop
Unfortunate I'm on top
Vultures devouring sweet flesh, 
spit your words out like a fart.

On your second round, cutting you slack.
Are you done with the Anxiety attack:-(
A fountain pen, paper, packed by your Mother.
She threw them out by the gutter.
Mr James, time is up, hit the road, Jack.

The POETRY DESTROYER,
just struck back.
