politics 4

Labour wants new money
who will they rob ?
VAT on private schools
a start

Thwarted Environmental expenditure ?
Thumbled again
running chicken,
Their leader is such a bore
I want to snooze
 !
Towns expanding on green ground
planning permission relaxed
Just realise Croydon was a Labour blueprint
and got Bankrupt thrice

A world without war

I will be very pleasure,                                                                 
 if a world is without war,                                                    
Globe has faced two world wars,                                
 resulted in loss of vegetation,                                          
 Swiss stayed out of world wars,                                         
 Still it has stunning landscapes,                                                I wish to see the world as it is,                                                 to enjoy global flora and fauna,                                              You will be surprised to know,                                                the world military expenditure,                                                    it is above 2000 billion dollars,                                              And it shattered world economy ,                                   
 Bombs scared landscapes,                                                  
 And  tanks flattened mountains,                                         Save our green planet please ,                                     
 for the future generations.

Croydon 1975

When I was 12
our family arrived at Croydon.
Everything seemed grander
a real Municipal town
we had record and camera shops
and departmental stores
everything seemed geared for conspicuous expenditure

We seemed not to have beggars in the street
and the greenline buses took us to country lines
My secondary school seemed good
as were our teachers
We had night  clubs and gigging places
Like Sinatras and the Cartoon
and Entertainment places
Like the Fairfield Halls and Warehouse
and ample cinemas
We were self reliant
with a beating soul

Maga Became Maggot and Did Tag It

a call had been close
after we would put on clothes
went out door we close

when we did tag it
MAGA became a maggot
applied tourniquet

would be sinister
sermon said by minister
about being spinster

what we knew for sure
increased our expenditure
for one more denture

we would meander
creating gerrymander
did raise up dander

poem would write to read
was great everyone agreed
did the dirty deed

The Writers Box

So I write, I write and I write. 
I like to write. 
I like to write so I write.
There is no purpose 
There is no expenditure
There is no outcome
There is nothing other
than me writing.
I'm in a box now, writing
but I'm freaking out a bit
I never knew it would be like this.
I don't know what to write anymore
I'm in a box, in a box.
I've been in this box all this time.
I guess I should have known.
There was never anyway I could
write myself out of this box.
All this time I thought I could,
if only I was given half a chance.
But I was only lying to myself, 
or is it a lie, and I am fighting
back with the only thing that
makes any sense, the only 
endowment, the whole enchilada
yes, this big writing lying thing
is virtue that I thought I held
but never did, for it was me
And I was it.

Premium MemberAn Economic Food Chain

A nature food chain
Linkng the carnivorous and the herbivorous 
May be simple 
And so an economic food chain within man
The rich and the poor
The poor works hard for the rich with low wage
But when the rich dumps the rubbish 
The poor can collect it and sell for some money
Garbage in a disposable bag 
May be useless to the rich 
But a treasure to the poor
A nature food chain can be complex
too
The same for man's during the rise in prices
The seller only raises the prices to get the same profits
But the buyer pays the extra expenditures
Without someone sharing the burden
The chain goes on and on
And the rich becomes richer
And the poor remains poorer

Premium MemberA Special Offer

Pick up an offer
You'll find a new adventure
A deduction of prices
A quick accumulating crowd
A long queue of patience
And a challenge of temper
A traffic jam
And a lost of precious time
An extra expenditure
And a new debt
And a risk to Covid-19
Really an underestimated offer

How Much Is Your Love

How much is your love?
Finance has a signature sign in any kinship
Monetary status together with relationship status is
-to love and to hold
-to value in debit
-to deposit till positive
credit is due, love is true

(These are the vows on the love voucher
A coup payment from cupid)

A security to the fund of life
But its revenue can come with expenses
As expectations exceeded expenditure
negative on the balance
This loan applies to marriage and cohabitation
how and who gets to account for what and when
is savings on the investment
Budget for your emotions

what or who to spend your feelings, as well as assets on
wants and needs are human condition in trade
fluctuating with the living standards

Regulate your mandate before going on to date
The paper note has devalued the love note
How much is your love?
Hope you have a better rate to ex-change

The Goalless

Goal changed after every failure,

Now nothing left with me

Goal changed reaction of everyone,

Dream of parents broken

But my dream still fighting hopelessly

Marks are very bad

Seats are limited and cut-offs unlimited,

Finely career of my level, expenditure is bounded,

But my dream never stays in boundaries,

Thoughts are without marks,

A career of my choice that last lifeless,

Every day I waited for,

The day of my happiness.

The goalless oo the goalless

Premium MemberEmbossed

Emblazoned with your monogram 
                      Call me your little coin
               Design of us more sacred than 
                       Meteor's noon anoint 

              Howling homeless Winter lingers
                          Fingers in our trove
              Should cruelty a blizzard bring us
                   Brave summoned in droves 

               Prisoners whispered confidence 
                    Shared worries are gone
                Mortar between us is credence 
                    Knife edge secret sworn

               Bearers we, of mightiest sword
                       Armor repels feeble
                Donjon detains nightly reward 
                      Rejoinder agreeable 
 
               For every required expenditure
                      Little Coin will cater
               Conjured to find replenishment 
                      Future emblazoned 

              Energised by mammoth missions 
                     Carved as arrowhead 
              Morale for your instinctive vision
                     Richness never spent

Destitute Life

The life like the monthly expenditure note book
The loss pass all hurting heart like the expenses
And the happiness as like the some share markets
Buy and sell people demands like money exchange

Premium MemberPeople's Champ

Athlete of international stature
Boxer Manny Pacquaio gives blows along generous gesture
Champ of the people with humble beginnings’ posture
Driven toward victory of faith-venture.

Empowered by God, he testifies of his Christian culture
Fortified through Bible principles’ feature
Gracious provisions he shares in his blessings’ pasture
Helping charity works from his foundation expenditure.

Imparting Gospel truth by his influential celebrity nature
Justice he fights, complementing his senatorial puncture
Keeping his stand on issues clear according to the Scripture
Learning well while leading toward lawful legislature.

Might and mercy he blends midst righteous fights’ torture
Nourishing citizens with goodness and well-being’s nurture
Optimizing public official’s role since his bad vices’ departure
Persistent to present a good name* beyond branded signature.

*Proverbs 22:1  A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.

Do You Know

Do you know about the magic stores that are
Hidden in an alley which sells magical objects?
You will find sales representatives who aren't
Amateurs
They're intelligent on every subject
Each item bought and sold has to be perfect
For your expenditure.
Do you know about the magic stores that are
Hidden in an alley which sells magical objects?
I think your a skeptic. They inspect
Historic high grade treasures.
They're intelligent on every subject
That they sale like books, brooms, cauldrons,
Clothing, crystal balls, flying carpets, jewelry,
Stones, wands, and weapons each item has 
Its own countries dialect
As well as its own allure.
Do you know about the magic stores that are
Hidden in an alley which sells magical objects.
They say it's a great place to pick and select
At your leisure.
They're intelligent on every subject.
The stores are open six days a week to the
Magical public
For your pleasure.
Do you know about the magic stores that are
Hidden in an alley which sells magical objects.
They're intelligent on every subject.
