Best Ten Percent Poems


Our Brains

ETHREE-NONET POETRY

  OUR BRAINS 
Man's
Faulty
Brain power
Is   limited
In this place of sin
Even     the   genius 
Uses   maybe    ten    percent
God plans much more for His children
What a blessing our life will  soon be
If we will let Him take over our lives
Then God's universe we will explore
We will know how dull we were here
How stunted our growth has been
How our foe has fooled us
And kept us in paths
That led us to
Forsake God's
Loving
Way

Giving More Than Ten Percent

Giving More Than Ten Percent…

You told your pastor you gave your “ten percent.”
But what kind of life have you really spent?

You put money in the offering plate last Sunday.
What kind of person are you…  Come Monday?

Living for Christ is a total way of living…
How much of your time have you been giving?

Do you have a burden for the lost souls of men?
Do you have the power of God living within?

No matter how much of church
 you’re “involved.. “
The problem of sin in you will go “unsolved.”

Christ must be your #1 goal and ambition…
He must be your true source of spiritual nutrition.

Jesus must be the focus
 of your love and attention…
He’s done more for you than
 one could ever mention.

He is the answer to a crazy world
 gone “upside down..”
He’ll do more for YOU than
“ the biggest church in town.”

100 percent of your life is what
 Christ wants to receive…
If heaven as your home…  
Is what you wish to achieve.

Christ is here right now… 
 No need for an appointment.
Won’t you receive his love and
 precious anointment?

He’ll do more than any church 
building could every do!
Won’t you allow him to make 
your life BRAND NEW?

Top Ten Percent

Plastic for garment hopeful Mc Guyver
        Privileged upbringing Mum funded Uni
        Drooping arms self described Survivor 
        Sends selfies working store security 

       
        Each week forgot which time we'd set to meet
        Busy cuddling cat in his hoarders house
        Box obstructed rooms, pet fur pile retreat
        Expensive half hour at strip club aroused
         

        Deep thought Duncan sombre long faced hellos
        Told off at new job for being morose
        Six year psychiatrist compiled his woes 
        Used a lot of glue trying to make clothes! 


         Fifty eight, next door mother truest friend 
         Asserts he's recognised among top ten


 
                      
                   31st January
    
                Duncan in denial

Ten percent


Go my love, become the Earth
Do not fear this second birth
Rest not alone, my word is true
The best of me shall lie with you

I lived a life, so long alone
Until I put you in my phone
Only then, I became whole
Found the value of my soul

For you, I’ll ever grateful be
Not just the better half of me
Took no time for me to see
You were at least nine tenths of me

I the agent, you the star
One tiny part of who you are
For you to me were heaven sent
I thank you for my ten per cent

So, go now, Love, become the Earth
Do not fear this second birth
Rest not alone, my word is true
The best of me resides in you

Ten Percent Brain Myth

Medical and/or scientific experts
     doth now corroborate,
promulgate, validate...(wait
don't go there's much more)
     linkedin with falsehood
     that requires me to terminate,
an average dumb founded guy
     (noir) tasked with rectifying

     (with quiet riot) eek quate
absolute zero truthfulness humans
     only use 10 percent
     (or other small percentage)
     brain power in (Jean) Nate,
or anybody else for that manner
     ("say hypothetically
     gals named Kate)

which unfounded,
which urban cowboy legend
     persisting in perpetuity, I hate
tubby the bearer
     of unwelcome news
     (doubling up and
     down as a pernicious
     cherished rumor squasher

boot nada one
     reputable specialist studying
     intellectual potential,
     would unilaterally vouchsafe,
     (and risk their judicious, marvelous,
     and prestigious reputation,
     which years to elevate),
yet such stubborn presumption

     firmly maintained latched onto
     (analogous to fish unknowingly
     snagged with "FAKE" bait)
nonetheless specialists of the
     (egg shaped) noggin
     do attest in aggregate
that some n'er
     do well (christened

     Matthew Scott Harris)
     did whimsically create
believable Trumpism,
     which invalid conclusion
     adopted to enervate
his own cognitive impairment,
     thus motivating him
     tubby poetically great,

and even though, he got told
     afore stated said
     baseless, groundless and/or
     premise, aye intimate,
the sure fire way
     to expunge (purge) nagging notion
     (short of a karate
chop to his fountain

     head of noodle,
     which idea to in Tim mate,
would not rank as emphatic,
     dramatic, and/or climatic,
     as electric shock therapy
     last ditch effort to operate.
