Extinguishers Poems | Examples


Crusible

KERATIN is extracted from
cows hooves to make to
make foam for fire extinguishers.
............................................

They butchered the shank
to make disks
to serve with beef cheeks.
the wine sauce would be cooked
separate and and made of
wine
chicken feet
thyme
bay leaves
cayenne
carrots
garlic
onions
sun dried tomato's
 3 anchovies


we would need
 15 pounds of cheeks
20 pounds of shanks
6 pounds of chicken feet
( to make chicken stock)

the oniony, tender 
meltingly beefy
goodness of meat
served with vegetables
and creamy mashed potatoes
ah- God 
Mercy on these
people!


The make shift area would be chicken wire two sides
with sand and cement mixed with a cob material
and plastered
to create walls
with a tin overlapping roof.

New York times and Washington post, better watch
The reports in the columns you host, keep within any
Remit, for the wokesters wish to poke' specially those in
The big-house, who'll treat as serious any old joke'
Don't be tilting at thir windmills, or landing any clouts'
Being negative on e v's like 'just asking about? How
They go real dead in winter, blow a fuse in deeper floods'
Keep burning on' though fire brigade extinguishers run out
How their weight causes pot-holes how they belt hard other
Cars, that they're becoming liabiltys in the world
And here; both near and far.! Far be it from you to truth tell
Just remain within the lies..Keep on massaging those figures.'
All those 'old lockdown blighs' cause you really don't matter
Or your families and friends, you bury the corpses and
Press freedom.' even the intents.'  You'll be part of the problem'
And you'll pay so very dear, when they draw up all the rules
Then you'll know.. 'you once; were free' free to save many
People and countries..The many lands you have sold out..You'll
Be colouring the pavements, fir there your talent you will tout.'

Running With Scissors

The dangers of health and safety 
Cannot possibly be overstated
Because yesterday I tripped over 
A pile of paper H&S related 

It's a minefield of regulation
I've bought a tsunami plan 
And six fire extinguishers 
For a one-man-business band 

The ludicrous requirements 
Are completely over the top... 
Soon I'll have to wear safety goggles 
When I vac the floor and mop

Premium Member Let That Be

LET THAT BE

Humans screwed up the definition.
Scribes from hell put fire to vellum.
Black ink, settled, in extensive cursive.

Debates became reprobate,
Soiled with a list of conclusions,
Blood spilled like wine,
Smearing all of mankind.

Cattle droves, sacred cows, gather in crowds.
Confusion and chaos, swarms like lit forests.

Fire extinguishers have been banished.
Flames, rise high, in youthful eyes.

Has the definition of love become hate?

Stir that pancake batter
                                      :
                                       :
                                         :

Too soon it becomes callous and flat.

If we’ll only engage each other’s ear,
Agree or disagree with peace...
Differences do exist.
Let that be!
Hinder not kindness, goodness, patience.
Most of all - pursue love.

Let love light up the earth with mirthful glee!
Sometimes war is the path you set under your own two feet…

Bush-Fire In the Savannah

Blazing bush-fire rages in the Savannah
With bright red eyes and fast moving legs
One ponders survival of flora and fauna 
But it is not an ordinary wild bush fire

With amorphous and elastic fiery tongue
He is sectarian, wise but morally corrupt
Selecting only humans and sparing the rest
He sees, smells and burns them to stillness

Searching in hotels, homestead and bushes
Licking their bottoms and fanning flames
Whirlwind sends invoices to every house
As the stars rise, twinkle and set in youth

With no expert fire extinguishers in action
And fog covering the eyesight of the victims 
Savannah bush fire merry-makes uninterrupted
In the land that may soon become catacombs

Fire Dancers

Darkness crowded the room,
smoke filled the air.
Oxygen fell to the floor, 
running away, intertwined with the carpet.
Her hair fell in an ashy halo
around her head.
A used match lays in her hand, smoking gently.
A glaze covered her eyes. Sirens filled the air
noise never reached her mind. Nothing,
she could not hear.
Her father's favorite song played upstairs,
in the music player he left behind,
when he left her behind.
The house empty, has been for years.
She has been living there, or has she just 
been there? A men in red break down the door.
Stairs are stepped upon as the enter hells flame.
The girl was engulfed in flames,
yellow fingers dancing in her hair.
Ash fell like snow around her that christmas morning.
The men started spraying there useless hope on the fire, 
along with the fire extinguishers.
They stopped dumbfounded.
The girl's hand stretched out towards them,
in a small sign of Stop.
By the time they recovered,
they had a pile of ash,
and a nightmare to remember.

Bus 333

Bus 333           

Thank you bus 333
For being there for me all day long,
You wake even before cock crows
And set yourself out all  for my sake;
Your storage you fill to the beam,
Your powerhouse you fire to warm,
You  sweep the aisle and mop the deck
You polish the seats and empty the  bins,
Your fire extinguishers are all in place;
How much you care for me ! 
Danke, danke, danke.

6.10 is the meeting time,
Under the shed I see your light
Piercing the thick wintery cloud,
Your rollers daring the whitish heaps,
Your long antennas twisting left and right,
Unceaselessly wiping the chill ice ,
Who could have loved me more ?
Danke dir, mein lieber Bus.
 


No, you will not bypass me,
You will not even hurry me up,
But carefully you will lift me up,
Give me all necssary attention;
Your guten Morgen delights me,
It brightens me and gives me joy;
And when I finally settle down,
In my direction you will zoom
Watching front,watching back;
And when our do becomes done,
Deligently you will park and wait,
Auf Wiedersehen,auf Wiedersehen ; 
What a great love is this ?

Lieber Bus 333,ich liebe dich,
Lieber Bus 333,ich danke dir.

Premium Member Two Steps Forward, One Step Back

Let's not just stop
At our guns and ammunition
I bid you please to sign right here,
Sign this petition!
Let us dispose
Of our fire extinguishers too
Let's leave it the firemen,
They have work to do!
Let us improve the roads sobriety
And stop driving those risky cars!
Let us see how far we can take this,
Let us see just how far!
