A future world rule by Trillionaires and Billionaires
Each country with segments of puppet regime governments,
With exceptions of course,
The drug lords the cartel those with the power
And the glory to hold what they consider theirs,
They will be the enemy, and will be a constant
Thorn in the...

Haiku - Lucky Escapes - Number Twenty Two
Leveret scurries
Trained ears, panoramic sight
Saved - by a hare's breath.


Easter Bunny blinks
Burrows the deep undergrowth
Close shave this morning...

About Twenty Two Score Years Ago...

One “FAKE” rumor purports April Fools’ Day
accepted with hostile abandonment
according to Giggle ling search result
conducted by this gent
adopted when France switched

rather than fight abolishment
transitioning from Julian calendar
to Gregorian calendar,
(yet maintaining same gender reassignment)
called for by the Council of Trent

Lot affecting...

Curse of the Twenty Two
Curse of the twenty two

Ole Con he was a Yeoman at bloody El Alamein,
And he lifted out the mines where lead fell like bloody rain,
Driven sort of crazy, with death buzzing all around,
And the butcher shop of blood an guts, sort-of made him friggin frown,

My Twenty-Two Years
In my twenty-two years
I have never been to college
I have never had a steady job
I've never found a cure for the common cold
I've never invented a much needed gizmo

In my twenty-two years
I have never saved someones life
I have no life long childhood friend
I've never been...

The Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Twenty-Two

The day broke on this fateful date like gravestones pushed asunder
Transcontinental wagons hooted their humming blared thunder
The Faithful six million alerted to the confrontation
Made their way in unison to the muezzin’s call yonder

The lake’s squadrons of Bernache geese...

Twenty-Two
Twenty-two twenty-two caliber guns,
With twenty-two ammo,
Pointed at me....
By twenty-two small time hoods
Each having done twenty-two years apiece...
I'm hoping twenty-two times,
Twenty-two twenty-two's
Ran out of sufficient gun grease!...

Twenty Two
Beautiful curls flowing down
Large sparkling eyes, enticing
Life just starting recieved a death sentence
Though death has been around every corner since seventeen
She keeps on the dark, wide path
Shady deals and lies
Doesn't know the truth
Old cadillacs, old smelly men
Needles...oblivion
Where am I? What is that stinch?
Crying baby number...
