The doctor’s diagnosed OCD.
I keep on washing hands you see.
The wife says I oughter
Stop wasting our water;
So now she’s washing HER hands – of me!
My lady wife does strange things with the lavatory brush
She stands it in the loo and then she activates the flush
But she’s my girl and not someone that I would want to chasten
Except she leaves the brush there like it’s Guardian of the Basin
I know she pours in loads of bleach in which the brush can soak
I don’t know why she does this for alas I'm just a bloke
So when I walk into the loo that brush is standing proud
Protruding from the lavvy pan as I proclaim out loud…
My darling, I’m so happy that you keep our home hygienic
But that there plastic poker in our loo is hardly scenic
So I don’t have a Labrador but what if I were blind…
You’d find me running out of here while clutching my behind
It will be a cloudy semi cool day
No hot sun to broil you today
Holocaust Harris is the VP ‘s new name
She’s a Zionista, she ain’t ashamed
Love the alliteration of that name
Will she have blood on her hands,will she feel
shame?
I saw workmen carrying moving bins
The bins being empty-the day begins
I smelled from dirty garbage bags
These bags were hygienic and tied
I tasted my all dressed tuna sandwich
It makes my day
Looking at the blue steel bin filled to the brim
I think I feel ok today
Second thought I have a queasy stomach,ugh
I see paintings on the wall, big and small
I tasted my coffee.It was not to bad at all
Biden supports women rights today
Long ago he said the opposite I say
I want the book The Strategic Poet
Testing the water --- such is wisdom feat
as lad prepares toward Olympic fleet
yet knows that he's not a fool
to bathe in cool swimming pool
since hygienic concerns he first must beat.
To civil manners she said "Good Night!"
If with garbage her plot was littered:
To the filthy, she gave a good fight
Like one by great losses embittered;
For unkempt spots her rage at its height,
As though one had her fought wealth frittered...
You, please, do not visit her website:
A long face with long snakes that slithered.
Georgina could simply rave self white
And the touched onlooker leave withered...
Any wonder her two plots once bright
Georgina, for days, often tittered.
The peaceful place we were in before coming here
The comfortable bed we were on before coming here
Hygienic food we ate and drank before coming here
Beautiful surroundings we enjoyed before coming here
Same place we are from
The same bed we slept on
Same food we ate and drank
Same surroundings we enjoyed
Now it’s a world, the same platform for everyone
Of birth and death, anyone is comparable to none
Yet, we become different, we become hypocrites
We are haters; we love to live in revengeful treat

Our immune system fights viruses and all foreign bodies.
antibodies that protect the lymphatic office.
Immunological memory is the ability to recognize,
previously initiated the anti device.
Healthy microbes essential from cradle to grave,
mothers fungus touch and milk to survive.
The use of antibiotics killing those microbes,
sterile environment for the body that disrobes.
Smell, taste and recognition of individuality,
crucial role in and out of body decomposing reality.
Sanitizing will weaken the immune system procured,
called the hygienic hypothesis for rest assured.
Caught in legal procedure enforced to act,
given your body from shop to shop some poison in fact.
The psychological terror not to mention,
being prosecuted in scientific polluted detention.
Riding the donkey of hope as expensive load,
endurance of the profiteers that you owed.
Hehehe
we’re up and about
we’ve been asleep for a while
but we‘re here, we’re here
you think you’re safe
but your not, your not
We are always in the air
even in the sea and land
we might be small
but we packed a punch
You think those animals are clean
you eat without care
Yet when you are sick
you blame the animals
its you, it’s you
it’s your own fault
those diseases,
those epidemics,
the ones that come, from different places
China, England, and Africa
are just a few to name
Human beings, human beings
when it happens to them
they are worried
before it happened
they don’t care, don’t care
these are all your fault
What is going on with people nowadays
don’t they learn from their past
from the black death to the corona virus
history does repeat itself
Be wary be wary
keep being hygienic
take care of animals
don’t eat clearly like a mad man
Be cool be cool
be safe.
As Halloween approaches
I wonder if any bold spirits
will venture out to maintain
a long forgotten pagan rite
and if they’ll don a Darth Vader
mask or wear a more sensible
and hygienic tight fitting
mouth and nose covering?
Regardless, there will be a light
in my crudely carved pumpkin
and I’ll wear my mask and
gloves to dole out sweet
nothings to any intrepid
souls who venture
to my door.
O Flowers
In your blooming heart
July rain is dancing
as blessings of flaring glow
before golden sun
Invisible worms
playing in your fist
game of assassination
like the droplet contagious
Dark horse the source of
research center on the
infectious sky
In the blue garden
of barren medicine
I refill your honey blood
with howling tears
Freezed raindrops
digging the bed of
crimson shocking
on your spreading breath
Secrecy of your love is
nothing but imminent
hypnotic tragedy

So-called civilization
busy in searching of pure nectar
Where water can't quench the throat of the poor
Nowadays
So-called movement for hygienic civilization-
an asylum of mental disease
Where two times foods rights a day
are hoarded in the arcane abdomen of the capitalist

(Double Nonet)
In poverty there are blessed the lives
Hygienic weather is far fetched
Yet happiness in their blood
No mask and hand washing
Lacking of good foods
Day nights death news
Yes, nothing
Can do
Them
Their
Struggle
For the life
Builds confidence
Teaches adverse act
They manage anyway
No disappointment kills them
Let victory shine their hard world
Where snobbery disease never comes

The world wakes up oneday amidst a horror
We call it by the name Corona viral disease
It became apparent to all of us there is no succour
In times we had it before but now it is
A goblin to savour the precious lives
Being a contagion can spread widely across
Crossing continents and regions wide it thrives
Bringing tears to all people and an immense loss
Wonder is this a biological war to usurp us all
World wars killed people in combat and not this time
The need to be hygienic stupors past the call
With masks and social distancing to become the prime
Weapons to wage this war of liberation
It is time we stood united against the common foe
For it is no less than the acid rains that perished
The dinosaurs; will it do to the mankind too?
A vaccine to kill must soon get it vanished
From this earth or else the count of deaths
Can surpass the worst ever in history till date
And let's hope there would be no ilks
To replace the monster to decide our fate.
Its a pandemic
Spreads quick
Looks like it may stick
Its horrific
Many are sick
Our elders are weak
Its hectic
Makes our doctors freak
Seems to be bleak
Its drastic
Causes panic
Things are getting dramatic
Its frantic
So please stay hygienic
If anything visit the clinic.
