Follow Up - May 10
Tonight, I won’t write anything at all…
I’m throwing in my quill,—who am I fooling?—
I’m throwing in my keyboard, overruling
my instinct for seriousness,—o how small
and earnestly banal…/I mean!, the gall
of an Artiste not sat at home drooling
on their craft and crafting another grueling
chef-d’œuvre,—Bah!—leave that to the alcohol!—
—@-tack your ’s-periment__’n’|defend|
mine own: for the[object]of this{subject}
is Anihilating your nothingness.

Follow-Up To '**** Pantry'
I know a family that doesn't have much
But their small abode is spotless
You can eat off their floors
'Course that makes them 'classist and racist'
The home in which they take such pride
~ a veritable eyesore

Follow Up To Networking Nancy - Bawdy
Nancy’s a nymphomaniac
Who networks when flat on her back
Her motives are shady
And Nan ain’t no lady
She always gets blokes in the sack
Yes, Nancy’s a bit of a lass
Three stock cupboard guys get her ‘pass’
She has hanky-panky
With Tom Dick and Frankie
Guess Nancy is just pure badass
NB Terry suggested in his comment that I wrote about Networking

Follow Up -Cast the Nets Upon the Waters- -
Cast your net upon the waters
let your words and Visions flow
from breast to breast
Let The Healing Waters begin the flow
you are cured
like in a bird and the blue skies let it soar
let your words comfort me
that your Deeds
be from your needs
I fell down on my knees

A Follow Up
The weather is brutal today, like a roll in the hay
Like rambunctious like, you know, when your mind goes astray
You leave mother earth
Seems like a rebirth
When you recover, as a follow-up we'll see you again!
(maybe 10 minutes)

Memorial Day Follow Up
Memorial Day Follow Up
Then there are those who never came back,
As much time flies by and we will loose track;
My age has lengthened and up I have grown,
Still see tomb of soldiers who are unknown.
By other veterans, they loyally would bequeath,
With honor, in front of their tomb place a wreath,
And

Follow Up To Lady In Waiting
The lady lived contentedly
within a castle by the sea
for time unending.
As daily she watched o'er the water,
she and her devoted daughter
household mending.
Her husband yet was lion hearted,
but from her side had not departed,
come what may.
Though others went to war for glory,
he knew too well the age old story;
how women pray.
Soon enough would come in sight
some

12 Hours Ago, Follow Up From Weds
Today I shined very bright.
I added the fuel to ignite.
I gave it my all and hoped for the best.
I went in and faced the test.
Sitting there waiting, my pits sweating.
The quiet, lifeless room was offsetting.
Time taking so long I might grow thin.
Just waiting for the teacher to say begin.
She speaks and I dig in
