GREY SOAPBOX SENSATION

Checked it flag
A stand out soapbox
All in grey
Challenger in a race
Speed of competitors
It was fast like a Greyhound Dog
Grey color gets attention
Had to mention
Grey soapbox named “ROADHOG”
As the wheels accelerated more and more
It was definite that the soapbox was going to even the score
Faster Faster and Faster
Maneuvering here and there
The soapbox was beyond compare
Ahead of its time
Throughout the soapbox race
Every competitor was in a chase
Winner to be
A let see
Who will cross the finish line?
You guessed it, the Roadhog being the grey soapbox
Cheers and roars
Undefeated challenger
Winner took all
Soapbox winner call.

DISHES

I'm the vibes, they're the vipers 
I give healing, them keep killing 
Words my medicine, call me words smith
Deceit and betrayal their weapons
I call them cobra, them are snitches.

I'm the owner
Them the controller 
I always act like 
I own or know nothing 
They're so ruthless
Acting like they own or know it all.

I'm the completer
They're the competitor 
Always fight for something 
While I ride for my things
Everyone with their own obligation 
Paying attention to whatever they belong.

enjoying top gun

Whose smile and behavior are more devilish than Tom Cruise’s?
Naturally cast to play Maverick, daringly bending the rules.
Putting himself and his bestie Goose in danger, over and over.
They both are enjoying US Navy’s elite fighter weapons school.

Maverick is conceited, cocky, and super believably over-confident
As is Iceman, his nemesis, and major competitor, played by Val Kilmer.
The two together carry this movie to an exciting fruition.
Maverick's flirtation with Charlie, astrophysics instructor adds pizazz.

I do not think you will be bored if you rent this one dated 1986.
Thirty-seven years later, it still makes me smile.
Of course Goose’s death will always be sad, even now.

Competition

Competition  is the race for the swift?
Does one has to consent by the rules
at times not fair, practice self-control
in all thing emotionally , physically.  
impulses, and things, Competition. Don't 
measure yourselves with another individual, 
nor compare themselves  with each and 
everyone. Don't envy one's sidekick or
competitor, this is vanity and pride striving
for the wind, Competition. 
Shall we not grow weary in doing in good
deeds? And not give up on yourself, 
run with endurance  the race that is set
before us, withstand y'alls temptation  and
quarrels, It's not that your passions are at
war with you?
Do nothing for rivalry nor conceit it only
accompanies discord, Competition.

Song of The Red-Tailed Hawk No 10: AABB

Less than eighty, now ... they're, unaccounted.
'Tis sad ... NEXT: the hawk hovered that founded
fresh sedges, grasslands, and deserts idyll,
God in the detail, Red-Tailed Hawk sidle,
Blitzkrieg mob by crows, females sized greater,
social-less wingers, life mono-mater,
dives one hundred twenty miles per hour,
kills owl young BOTH nesting competitor,
Prey spotted one hundred feet in the air,
Their eyesight to man, seven times finer,
Two feet, two pounds, twenty-one years lifespan,
Roadkill, hunting, and human expansion,
Diet: various birds, and small rodents,
Scrub deserts, farm fields, rainforests, woodlands.

Bikini Competition

O, for a bite of chocolate
    a tiny lick of fudge
  Alas, it is impossible
    her nutritionist will not budge

  If she were a highly paid professional
    she could bribe the priest at confessional
  to let her nutritionist know
    her intake of sweets is below zero

  But our competitor is as poor as poor can be
    she'll have to devise a different theory

      Aha! The girl's got it!

  This year's there no wheelchair bikini competition
    Now her hopes may come to fruition

Sheba Readies Herself

Sheba woke up happily, eager to tear apart her competitor
Not in a mean devouring teeth-out, sharpen her claws way
She would do it as a lioness would, approaching slowly.
Giving her prey a sense of peace and hope

Springing at the perfect time
Before the woman’s defenses were up
Tearing her competitor’s edges into bits.
Eating the woman’s chances at stealing her promotion.

Fight Day

champion

                undefeated, excellent 

       defending, protecting, ensuring 

 fighter, superior, opponent, competitor 

       facing, confronting, contesting 

                 ambitious, intrepid 

                       challenger

The Race To End Infidelity

Phwwwwwhht! 
Went the high pitched airy sound
From the tiny plastic whistle 
And off the competitors raced

Vroom!
The car engines revved
One Male driver with a Mistress in Toyota
Another Female driver with no one in a Honda

Zap!
The race began 
Toyota ahead 
Honda Behind

Kakpum!
Came the screeching Honda sound
Like the bad guy's tires 
In a cops-and-robbers chase

Shreeeerchhhh!
Came the halting Toyota Sound
As the driver and mistress go dumb
With hands above their heads

Phwwwwwhht! 
Came the final whistle
The race ended 
And none touched the finished line

Waah! Waah!
Came the sound of tears
From onlookers and the surviving competitors 
As they stared deep into space

Hahaha!
Came the voice of the judges
Who adored the Toyota Driver’s Bravery
And Condemned the Honda Competitor

Boo!
Came the voice of condemnation
For the Honda Driver
Whom they tagged “Foolish”
Blames filled the air 
For both the Toyota and Honda driver 
But no one won the chase 
So Infidelity remained

All I Can Be

“A man is as miserable as he thinks he is” -Seneca

I want to do bigger and better things in my life
I want to fulfill all my potentialities
I want my actions to be the example
I just want to be the best I can possibly be

I'm prepared to endure great losses
I'm willing to stand in the fire and to bleed
I am prepared to fall into deep despair
Because when I fail, it's a step in the process that sets me free

I know there's only one true competitor in my life
Its the voice of discontent and self-doubt that whispers in my mind
But when I'm mindful of the internal narrative
I'm empowered to control the controllables in my life

For I am responsible
I'm not a pathetic helpless victim in this life
I'm a warrior, a conqueror
I’ll willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice

The sacrifice is having extreme patiences
And staying true to your word
It's about relentless perseverance
Sadly, to the younger generation, these actions seem absurd

This life, my life, will not be taken for granted
I have personal choices to make
And that choice is to give everything I have
Anything less, would be a serious mistake

Positive Spirit Versus Negative Ideologies

Our semantic words or lines produced ideologies.
Every person creates their own lines to create ideologies. 
It means that one’s ideology is different than others.
This is because each of gather this knowledge through self experiences.
No one ideology is greater than others.
This is because they had different untold stories.
Some get through traumas and negative experience.
So he or she creates pseudo and extreme ideologies.
Suppose I treated badly in past so I enhanced my negative rage.
This will build the footstep to go into the feet of extreme ideology.
Suppose I treated equally with others 
So my ideology will be based on harmony, blessing and love.
Only exception would be when we will take mistreat as challenge to overcome.
Your inner positive spirit can gives you the power to turn them into your friend.
Only thing we have to do is feel that inner energy and end our mental trauma.
Love your opponent as a competitor not enemy or reply them with your satisfied success.

Helios

Halo over his head
He had piercing, fierce eyes
Had children, some unknown
Heralded much like Zeus,
He rode across the skies
Helios was a fierce competitor
Horae, goddess he wed.

The Deeper, the More

The deeper the darkness of one's character is
The more dangerous competitor he is

Pandemic

The silence hurt
The empty hours
Aching to be filled
With meaningful activity
With encouraging words
The office abandoned
The empty desks
Unread bookcases
Files to be scrutinised
Would things ever revert?
The hubbub of colleagues
The banter in the corridor
The incidental exchange of ideas
The shared insights on the whiteboard
The feeling of team 
A form of family
All a distant memory
Not a worthy competitor
Not a godforsaken war
Not a foreign power
But an infinitesimally small
Invisible enemy
Out of nowhere
Has changed everything
Causing a revolution
In the path of evolution
Economy thwarted
Jobs lost
Education abandoned
Caught us all by surprise
Made us hunker in our homes
Afraid to come out
Hiding behind screens
Hiding behind masks
Scrubbing hands religiously
Avoiding those we hold dear
Each interpreting the guidelines differently
Applying tailored logic
Trust breached
Will life ever return to where it was?

Strong As a Bull Elvira

She was a strong woman; everyone said it.
Elvira is so strong! Strong as an ox. Strong as a bull. 
She was proud of it too; it was her reputation.

If something needs to be lifted, go get Elvira! Her family bragged.
“She can lift a cow!” her little bother told anyone who listened.
“Elvira has the back of a farmer,” Daddy boasted.

Hank, a traveling salesman needed a strong healthy woman.
He was selling his magic elixir, and he needed a female specimen
To show how potent it was, that it caused super strength.

Her strength would come in mighty handy. He decided to court her.
After their honeymoon they ran into her sister who was married to his main competitor.
“Let me guess,” the competitor said.
 “They told you she was as strong as a cow.”
