I once knew a cowboy named Stew
Riding broncs caused him to ahchoo
The broncs didn’t care
Bucking in the air
It was all they knew how to do
Colourful array of geometric patterns
the kaleidoscope entertains both young and old
~ dancing feast for the eyes

a clown
in town
purpose
circus
jam-packed
in fact
a mime
at nine
fun night
done right
timely and still late
long line stalled in parking lot
cooler in car trunk, can’t reach
finally pouring
past lips and seeping through pores
propped up, shoulder to shoulder
My life, my night, is like a twilight. Stars in the sky, what a sight.
Laughter from all around, enjoying such a lovely night.
The sweetness of the candy and caramel apples as I bite.
I'm on a rollercoaster so high with screams in the air.
I enjoy the fun games of excitement as I walk around everywhere.
Smiles on kids' faces as they run around and everywhere.
I will never forget the carnival life as it was when I was young.
Three times the mass of the sun
were the boobs of stripper, Priscilla the Hun.
And when the adoring men yelled out for more,
she'd shimmy and knock 'em all to the floor ~
first with the left, and then with the right one.
Erratic police chases are popular
TV full of FBI agents
Fascinating entertainment today
Vice cops on fourteen shows
I am an armchair detective
Solving crimes as I eat potato chips and ice cream
She can't sleep at night
And can't wake up in the morning
It's hard to ask someone
To go out at home
But once they go
They don't want to come back early
The sun kept them close at mall
Go inside movie and sleep
Forget about fun after work
Stay at home doing phone game
The whole day spent in entertainment
Nothing left for book read nor blog editing
Life is too busy to personal gain
Happiness is but one way street.
night out roundabout
storm interloper
cutting in
with showy lights
showering
Intro
Square up, bell rings
Square off, timed round by round
Jab and move; stick and land a punch
Score cards
tv in the fifties altering weekend rituals
one set in the neighbourhood
streetboys sitting around the famous indian head
for their fill of saturday morning cartoons
sci-fi flash gordon and i love lucy
allowed to stay up on sunday nights
to watch the old ed sullivan show
always one appointed volunteer
to get up and change the channel or adjust the volume
another to finetune the rabbit ears
to fix reception and remedy the dreaded snow

Off to see the Super Bowl in Vegas, fullfilling a lifetime dream
People from all over the world gather to engage in the excitement , and to chher there favourite team
Vegas with its reputation for being such a vibrant and fun loving place to go
A trip to the casino a place where you hope to see your money grow
With first class entertainment to be take in , we will surely make all the rounds
A walk down the strip engages all of our senses , with so much energy to be found
Ticket prices for the game from resale brokers nearing ten thousand , completely insane
However you may get a glimpse of Taylor Swift , and of course Usher at halftime of the game
Prices go up for everything with the Super Bowl in town
With so many people acting up from so much liquor , someone from the circus should be out recruiting some new clowns
As they say some things are priceless , a lifetime memory I am sure
With so much money bet on the big game , a little of that would be nice to secure
MY NOTEBOOK
I have a vehicle
That carries all
My plannings
My happenings
That has all my
Funny secrets..
That has my
Happiness and sadness
Nobody knows about it
I have life
Changing formulae
Inside it...
For me and me only
Everybody wants to open it
Everybody wants to read it...
The wrestler walks out
Strutting with pride
When he reached his opponent
He turned his head
To the opposite side
Magic saw cuts assistant in two
Pretty lady emerges good as new
Magician pulls hankie from hat
Dove flies away
He tells you your name, DOB,
even your fortune
The man rakes in the money ~
Entertainment’s portion
