Line up weirdos in my mind -
every freak and Frankensteind -
you, duck-billed platypeau,
my aquatic portmanteau,
each hominid and hippogrift
in the East African Valley Rift,
bugged-eyed beasts, all wall-mounted -
oddballs in my head, be counted.
Oil from the mount of olives, used on charlies pate..Stories below in Windsor
Jeanette Archer tells, of child torture,
Murder, and rape.' Maria Farmer also does
Fiona Barnet, they do not budge.' Virginia
Roberts, got paid much..But still she died
Maybe over such? Maggie Oliver, Jon Wedger knows Kevin Annett we hear and on it goes, anthony kidman and daughter
nichole along with epstein and maxwell all
Had their roles..The F B I swore they knew
Nothing.? And with marmalade
sandwiches i think -old lizzie did quite some
bluffing?'
Now back to Isreal and olive oil..Which old
lizzie also wore.' With treasure and spoils.'
And the stone of David.? That they sit upon
Link so much to Isreal.? Its a think a thon.!!
Trump with his kipper and biden and
the rest and death rape and torture.? Hmmm.?
What do you address.? (The era of con-vid?) And your violation.? We were a pagan
Sacrifice in all the nations ( were you told never to speak i'll ?) Of its reign.? Safe and effective you could only gain.' And the groves you will worship, under all things masked.' As you revel in serfdom..And await satans mark.?
I am the Lord of God of this Universe
Let's think about this beautiful verse
I am the World King from the history merge!
Make a flower of anything you touch
Find your 'I' in insight Search
Line up all to make your own worth!
green praying mantis
winged emperor dragonfly
spotted ladybug
dancing stag beetle
fat chubby potato bug
sneaky silver fish
purposeful black ant
yellow striped mud dauber
our insect line up
What do cows do?
Munch munch grass and moo,
Watch horizons long and blue,
Listen in to insects humming,
Splat fat cow-pats on the dirt.
Cows walk to the dairy in a crowd:
To and fro, to and fro,
Their udders swinging as they go.
They line up for the metal calves
With sucking tubes all disinfected,
Yet cows still seem to sleep contented.
On the doorstep with the mail
A letter from the Police
Looking for a male
Who disturbed the peace
My description was a match
I did start to panic
I’m not their prize catch
It’s just a line up and that’s it
I went to the station
To join the line
It was a weird situation
The accused was about 5’9
With a shaved head
Wearing blue jeans
And his top was red
It was like a movie scene
We all stood in a row
I was number two
It wasn’t right from word go
They said “it’s you”
You’re having a laugh
That’s not right
That date I had a bath
And an early night
It wasn’t disturbing the peace
Murder was the case
Believe me please
Look at my face
Why would I kill?
I have no need
I feel ill
My hearts racing at a speed
They took my DNA
And my fingerprints
In the cell I stay
Lots of time to think
Will I get out?
Or on remand?
You can shout and shout
But they won’t answer your demands
To shed a tear
Is only natural
I’m full of fear
I need my family and pals
The door unlocked
The officer walked in
He apologised a lot
It was a misunderstanding
I took my belongings and the case
And began to run
To get from that place
As fast as I can
waiting until someone has gone too far
to say the limit was there
repeats toxic patterns

At the shopping mall
There are bright colours everywhere
Santa's seat in view
Ready for the long line up
For sitting on Santa's lap
Line up the meat
According to size and flavor
Make the mistletoe appear early
Beyond its seasonal fracas
The plying and plowing is
Executed with such precision
To avoid the blame of ordinary
To be buried along with
Missionary and natural means
The lattice design that
Shapes futures
Meant for conventionality
None of which sounds
Or tastes appealing
At least for those of us
Who feel we can, we should
Mix it up every once in awhile.

“LOVERS LINE UP”
during those nights
they knew what it was
to be alone,
to hold onto their
thoughts,
to weep and wrap their
isolation inside their
tears.
during those nights
they made peace with
the loneliness that
made their thoughts
cry.
now these nights,
isolation is a memory,
they are each other’s
thoughts and the tears
fall for the heart that
sleeps just miles away.
these nights have become
that much more real.
tonight,
they miss each other
under the same sky.
