A Yarra View

This currant, while sun-faced
River's, sparkles optimistic
That's calmly hypnotized
Mirrors that flow, as all
The demeanours lit up have been
A mind's, now tranquilized.

Turdiness Times

There was once a man who never had a  for a year
He was fine other than a big fat belly full of crap
Myself its been three days since I dropped one

I wonder if I’ll be that man to last a year without ting
Make it a year and a day or even two years
Getting me a Guinness World Record
And place in the history books for not ting

Those barsterwads, who say Jimmy is full of, are right
But imagine when it pops out a truck load of crap
Dedicated all to you my demeanours and provocateurs 
Till that grand time I’ll just keep eating and smiling :)

Premium Member I'M Many Names-W

I am never going to accomplish the fame

Sweet of the rose is in the name it bears

Things are not only what they really claim.



Not to be writ on a roster I have a name 

It has been given by god and my parents

I am never going to accomplish the fame.



My neighbours have given me a name

By my appearance, walking in the airs

But things are not only what they claim



My enemies have given me a name

Judging me by corporate demeanours

I am never going to accomplish the fame.



I have names by vices, virtues and blame

Given by my love, life, work and death

But things are not only what they claim.

I am never going to accomplish the fame.
