Don't Take Life Too Serious

Stand up,
Won’t lay down 'til I stack up.
Fed up with the brokenness 
A liq just gonna tease me

Focus,
Pull up in a Lotus.
Fly on essential,
Throw up like bulimic 
With you she a padlock,
With me she a secret.

Convenient,
Don’t take life too serious.
Articulate,
Went and took one 
She missed on her period.

For my dogs, I’m ruthless,
Like John Wick, I leave you toothless.
Perseverance in the darkness,
Soon as the lights turn on 
You ain't flawless.

Stock market lookin' exotic,
Potential in motion, perpetual.
In her walls like a schedule,
Might see you later
If this sh*t don’t get raided.

I'm faded.

Premium Member The Variety of Liquorice

A liquorice sweet has a real variety
has been popular for many years
liquorice allsorts are everyone's fav
such a mixture makes one hit the gear

A cold remedy really needs full flavour
blackcurrant and liquorice sweets a real cure
to get you moving, drive Catherine's Wheel
so it's really tasty makes it the real deal

Now quite diverse is Liq Torpedoes
your taste buds feel a sure-fire hit
from there you can have Liq Comfits
too many will make you unfit

When one is offered a cake dessert
you think its a sponge in soft cream
but Pontefract Cakes are so different
Liquorice small tablets, not what they seem

Now also there's Cream Rock and Liq Sticks
too many to mention including Black Jacks
these were the days of liquorice delight
lovely memories of your tasty sweet rack!

(Just a little piece from my memories of favourite liquorice sweets in my younger days.)

The Plasticine Boy

Plasticine-boy´s life was a continual liq quiver,
it was a sight to see.
There was nothing original in him, except fear,
without impulse nor opinion
even with no defined color
adaptable to anyone
just like the chameleons.

Always modeled by the hands of others,
or...
threatened by the hands of others,
suffering himself the blows,
harassment, bullying, assault, persecution, mobbing, stalking,
victimization.

He would endure all in solitude and silence.
But one day... he would escape from all their clutches
by means of a Grand Finale.

And now...In Heaven
The whole colors of the rainbow
shine into and from that little plasticine tablet.
