Vision’s clearly an iffy thing
In some it blurs, others' ~ takes wing

maybe I'm formatting and forgiving
yet it's quite chilling this feeling, I'm feeling
So gripping, this feeling
When will He come
I want to run
Yet if I stay here I'll see Him with my own eye
so forgiving
feeling so getty
judgment

My neighbour has a shed
And he's in there all the time,
There are lots of bangs and crashes,
"He's up to something iffy," I opined.
My wife said "mind your business
It's his shed, it's up to him,"
(still though I'd love to know,
What on earth he hides within.)
So I asked him, and he told me
He'd built a memory machine,
It helps you remember or forget,
I said " show me what you mean."
My neighbour has a shed....

failure’s three legged stool
life’s IFS, ANDS, and BUTS

The sun is playing peek-a-boo;
It’s hiding ‘neath a cloud,
While waiting raindrops gather
All together in a crowd.
Uncertain weather’s baffling
For who knows what to wear?
But rain or shine, humidity
Is hanging in the air.
I’m heading out not knowing
If the sun will show its face,
But I’m old enough to carry
My umbrella – just in case!

The best way to tell if you're still alive
Is to breathe on a window pane
If the window suddenly starts to fog up
You're alive but its iffy all the same
Shouldn't have to use this old time method
Normally you really should know
To help your loved ones feel more at ease
You should move every hour or so
They really get worried and start to fret
If you haven't moved for days
Think the grim reaper had stolen you away
A silly game at times you play
So smile damn it, your face won't crack
It's made to show happy and stuff
Life could definitely be a whole lot worse
If they find you outside in the buff
