The most useless service i have experienced today, is with booking
Dot com..By far and not a way, non
Human obtusion, to make your nerves
Fray, i'll be strongly avoiding further
Pain i must truly say.)
scammed by the industry giant
customer service useless
passed from pillar to post
and back again without resolution
they simply did not care and are therefore
culpable of the fraud
maybe someone will benefit
from reading this ‘poem’
no licence required
only disappointment and injustice
I am voting with my wallet
will never use them again
and some of my friends vowed
to shun them as well
15th December 2022
I ordered From here to eternity
on Amazon waited forever for it to get here
Ordered the book of life
it was dead slow
Tried one of Shakespeare's
well it was as good as it gets
Charlie's Oliver guessed the twist
preconceived opinion about my pride
King's misery it was shinning
the rage i could not stand
my dog Cujo really old
my pets a century
We swim in oceans of the word, voices felt and echoes heard
Sometimes with a baneful blurred within the silence slurred
When the heavens parentally pour, words of love start to soar
Reaching hearts to the core, waiting to set sail before the shore
Only our words will penetrate, building worlds as they create
Enchanting eyes as they dilate lifting sorrows for they elevate
Like a hammer they can fall, banging bottom they shall crawl
And as they carry a heavy hall, they spread and sadly sprawl
For my words will live forever and the solitudes they will sever
Thru my love, they will endeavor and land on your lips wherever
I am a man of my wholesome word, never shaken never stirred
My words of love transferred, along the harmonious hummingbird.

Placed 7'th...Thank You
I hate to throw a book away
When I no longer need it
For it might make another’s day
If he’d the chance to read it.
In cleaning out my children’s shelves
I made a giant stack-up.
If they had done it by themselves,
They’d put them all right back up.
But they’re not here, so I’ll decide
Which ones are worth bestowing
As soon as I am satisfied
I like the place they’re going.
Two favorite books have covers gone –
Will someone still accept them
Or will they ditch them, whereupon
I’ll wish that I had kept them.
It’s hard to part with such old friends.
They brought us so much pleasure
But hopefully their time extends
As someone’s new-found treasure.
