Clout: Vital Elixir - Take Only as Prescribed
To make it on the stage, in this day and age,
I'm convinced, Contacts and Clout are what it's all about.
Woke up this mornin', feelin' all washed out,
went down to the local drugstore, for a bottle of Clout,
the druggist he said, 'Sorry son, we're all sold out.'
Woke up this mornin', feelin' all turned about,
went to my

Clout
I don't need you bragging
About all the ways you left me out.
I don't need you arguing
About all the ways you gave me clout.

The Rules We Flout
The Rules people flout
Often send them out:
For their replacement a scout
For viable hands I’d tout …
Their exit sure in the next bout
And as sure on their lips a pout.
The Rules you flout
Might your dreams rout:
Agonized squeals force out
Of your agonized snout;
The Howls after a clout!
The strict Rules People Flout
Make them a Piece of

Clout
When vultures cast sardonic smiles on his waning soul
Rehearsed their hisses for a feast of agony and epitaph
She gripped the moment and clawed her nails into his skin
Like pikes into a lover’s cross
A wake-up call

Now UN wants him for what ? Ne’er a doubt !

Flouting the Clout
So self-immersed with political clout
You've broken our trust as you strut and flout
Pork barrels take precedence
Over need and common sense
Treat us like subjects and we'll vote you out!

Native Clout
Up the flowing-stream
Against the light beams
Through the mystic greens
I walk in delight.
Sweat drops to persist
Breathe free in the twists
Each step will resist
Inhale water’s mists.
Cool air push unwinds
Truth now redefined
Rocks get personified
Lead one to new heights.
Blessings ripple to float a water song;
Meet the divine to whom we belong?
