Say princess of pop?
Say queen of hip hop?
The king of orgasmic rock
Who got writer’s block?
Or the Fab four,...

Playing in the sun having fun

Inseparable together laughing...

His long cane pole limber and perfect,
Patiently waiting, his eye on the bobber
For his prey, he has the utmost respect,
The big fish almost becoming his cobber.

Mountains are higher than the plains;
Plainly seen are the distance and present skies;
Skiing those things than presently seen;
Peaks the visage horizon stains;

Streaming is the voltage reefs;
Cave caverns distance beams;
