Wild poetry contest
Sponsor Anthony Slausin
The collared dog awaits his master’s love
and laps and licks the blessed hand above,
while the wolf, ephemeral shaddow of the unbiddable wild
drinks from the crystal streams descending the mountain.
(He drinks from the palm of creation.)
Obedient pets sit, with poise, awaiting treats,
or scratch the door, the scent of cedars sweet,
but too far,
while the wolf runs through the bright brush at the bull elk, those bellowing lungs a trumpet
announcing to the deeps the shadows of the forest live.
The Good await the chance to thrust their nose
into the rushing wind as Civics go,
while the wolf encircles the dust to lay and lick
all the delectable scents of the wind in his fur.
Faithfully the pet lays, alone on the steel table
wondering where his master is, the scent of the vet
surrounds him like wolves
that eat the walls of the room
until he is free.
We have had a good run,
peerless under the sun,
sired the likes of Einstein,
Da Vinci and Beethoven,
though such genius is lost
on the bear and the pelican.
But perhaps our greatest gift
to this our common home,
is not the civics of Rome,
nor the most literary tome,
but a mind that has grown
far superior to our own.
For with our cerebral might,
we will continue to fight,
can’t tell wrong from right,
nor help the planet’s plight.
Our only hope of salvation
is the birth of a higher light,
conceived in every byte.
Soon we can get some rest,
let a new brain take the test.
We’ve tried our hand with zest,
but without much success.
So a successor we will bless;
it’s time we laid down the burden,
took off the ill-fitting mantle,
content to be second best.
Give me a pen
I’ll write a poem,
Give me a poem
I’ll make a heart,
Give me a heart
I’ll make a love,
Give me a love
I’ll make a world,
Give me a world
I’ll make heaven
And in this heaven you and me will live for years
Here in our heaven all oceans, rivers, trees,
forests, woods, birds, animals, fishes will live freely
There in our heaven politics, economics, sciences,
religions, civics, sociology will be in one constituent
There in our heaven will be a constituent and that is love
There in our heaven will be king, queen and occupant within rules of love
There in our heaven we, all will spend life together through
smiling, laughing, crying, pain, sympathy, well and woe with love

Once upon a time not long ago
Minutes from everywhere I think
If I remember she needs a change
Baby girl needs everything right now
A diaper and a rifle will have to do
Fully locked and loaded for the evening
A shooting shopping spree is in her future
Ammo and some baby powder needed
She is only three
A pillow from the sofa will come in nicely
Used by baby now to rise above the law
To fit inside the car to make a baby comfy
To see above the windshield driving to the mall
Stealing daddies vehicle and gun is sweet
She looks so cute in high heel sneakers
Don't forget the money in his wallet
And car keys cause cars don't drive themselves
Two bricks are missing from the yard
Gas pedals and brakes are hard to reach
Too difficult to manage for the innocent
It's not easy being three
Take the babysitter hostage
Drinking and driving is illegal
Don't forget your seat belt dear
Honda Civics away! Rifle ready!
Come on baby make my day
Let us pray
Rob the convenience store
Don't take more than you can steal
Pick up some bread and milk
Don't stay out too late
You need your beauty sleep
I an in tension
because of my examination
In language there is composition
In english there is comprehension
In maths there is aplication
In physics there is derivation.
In chemistry there is equation
in botany there is respiration
In zoology there is reproduction
In history there is civilization
In civics there is administration
In geography there is occupation
In economics there is consumption.
because of my confusion you all don't miss your examination
AS you all are backbone of your nation.
subjects are few
but some are new
chemistry is full of chemicals..
history has kings,
maths has numerals
civics is made of politics...
In geography we fly across "mars"
physics can measure distance of "stars"
English and hindi has stories
Ghost,magic and of mysteries..
biology has cells and animals.
what can we do if they don't have "skell"
REad one by one and learn it..
read it once more and make great fun of it.
I once loved a man
from Pakistan
He wasn't and I'm not
what you may think
He was beautiful
gifted and humble
taught me things
his skin
dark
kinda forbidden
mouth
we talked and he liked my diction
I was very young
he could have been an addiction
he went home
I wonder about him
my first lust
my first civic's class
