Hobson's Choice - A Verbal Paradox

Thomas Hobson (1544 –1631)
in 19th century late
a Cambridge ostler and postal carrier
set his priorities straight
he owned a livery stable
of 40 Hackney horses or more
plus boots bridles and whips
and put the horse the cart before
after the animal left the barn
by bolting fast the door
and as precautionary balm
the nag nearest the stable gate
the worn-out equine storm to

a hand cart and a ring

A Handcart and a Ring 
 
A man I knew had a handcart and became self-employed
I often saw him in the town with a load of parcels and sometimes furniture
He was a contented man. 
One day, on his way to the railway station, the wheel of his cart came off
four suitcases fell into the street.
So, what to do? 
He

Wheels Up

Why does the trolley
dolly or cart
I choose to use
in every supermart
always have a wonky wobbly wheel
and feel oh so wearing
as if it's about to lose
its marbles or ball bearings?
It clunks like junk with a 'thunking' sound
and almost dumps
my groceries on the ground
won't go straight
invariably tilts veers
careens or curves
and without a doubt
indubitably gets on my nerves

Premium MemberI did half a cart wheel

I did half a cart wheel
once pooped a quarter
don't ask
OK, i also tried the dog food
the crunchy stuff wasn't bad
I'll still eat the last cookie 
and love taking the large strawberry
that sits atop the display
whenever I wear a nice shirt
everyone gets a bit nervous
I drive my trucks until Vegas
takes them off the board
I wore the

Is spending to save putting the cart before the horse

Maybe we should do a rethink about spending to save,
If we are using all our credit on a roll of the dice,
And instead keep that option on ice,
While we think about how much is too much rice.

I think the horse would rather be pulling the cart instead of pushing it,
Especially as a new owner is

Hitch The Old Mule And Load The Harvest Cart

Across the plains a bad ole murky mess
Unites in its quivering tears apart
And the bashful bride dares not that confess
As she knows for sure it would break his heart
Bloated bodies bend with such dusky chills
And the ill cast weather leaves what it starts
Grandpa cries, "Hon' bring me

Horse Ahead of Cart

No Milord, it can wait— this software,
Let’s talk of what wears hard— the hardware. 
Let justice come in time, 
Ye better prove it’s prime, 
On firm ground, not like gauze gossamer! 
From sentiments august 
To first things that come first, 
So that time-wasters of cobwebs clear, 
Let justice come in time, 
And with reasons that

Encourage Yourself

I had him reserved superb name
Simply to awaken the flame:
Grey Floyd proclaim “Never to fall”
This saying in Reception Hall
For Praised Artists’ Exhibition
That should address Inhibition
A crime make of Prohibition
And quite ignite The Ambition 
“Yeah, I have seen all of Floyd’s Art
And could bet they would feel a cart!”

My homage where Artists gathered 
Plus ‘Famous’ who

Premium MemberThe Disappearing One Wheel Cart

The road sweepers
Giggled happily 
While collecting and carrying rubbish 
With a one wheel cart
The construction workers 
Sweated heavily
While collecting and carrying bricks 
With a one wheel cart
As children 
We played secretly 
With the one wheel cart
Carrying inside a little girl as a bride
And the cart rolled and rolled
Until it disappeared from our eyes
Together with our

Premium MemberCart Riding At My House

Hello I am Dollar Store Diva
Saturday is my shopping day
I take my friend Steve-ah
We are heading your way

We used to get a cart full
But now there are only three
Used to be fourteen
Most have been borrowed by likes of me

I take them to my apartment
Just whizz them around the room
Want to cart ride at my house?
You’d

Shopping Cart

The Shopping Cart

Upon my veritable throne I survey
subjects of sundry colors,
cans and jars, packets and bags
arrayed in reverent order before me.
I am appointed, by natural virtue
captain of this mighty ship
past denizens of the white-tiled, polished sea
steered through (a)isles by two sturdy hands.
Before me lies, in mangled letters,
a royal sanction, listing treasures from far and wide
my

Premium MemberWhen I Upset the Applecart

They rolled along the dirty road,
With apples fresh among the load.
They stopped a mile from the mart,
As I upset the apple cart,

I stood in front as if to stop,
Causing all the fruit to drop,
Telling where the road had led,
And warned of dangers up ahead.

Told my time of being there,
Coming back all worse for wear.
Be it
