I met a Megalodon who beckoned
“Welcome to the herd!”
I heard this lot was wily but
to me this sounds absurd
Undeterred I approached
the powers that be
to see if it were true
But the powers that be
were absent without leave
leaving me nothing
left to do
(except to …)
kick this can on
down the road
since no one’s left
to carry that load
(In the meantime …)
Some docile fool’s
touting fossil fuels
to a group of
solar-paneled minds
While his fearless peer
is stoking the fear
of the biomass hive mind
(touting ...)
“Fossil fuels are plentiful
can be found easily
Natural gas is very efficient
when generating electricity
and so on and so forth …”
(stoking …)
“Biomass energy is reliable
helps to reduce waste
But also expensive
requires lots of space
and more of the same
also and others…”
When both groups
could no longer
suffer the ranting
all in unison
began their chanting:
“Good riddance!
Good riddance!
Leave them both to jostle
with that colossal,
wily, beckoning
Megalodon …”
“Welcome to the herd!”
He wakes up once again
In a holding cell,
No one sitting near him
Due to his awful smell.
The policemen who have grown to know him
Come to set him free,
Knowing it won’t be long
Before he’s back in their company.
“Come on Joe, it’s time to go;
You need to stay off the juice.”
But they know that’s not bound to happen;
They know about his drinking excuse.
Joe wasn’t always homeless,
In fact he was doing quite well;
Until he kissed his wife, goodbye;
As she entered the 9/11 hell.
He was walking back to their condo,
After accompanying her to the towers;
The first plane was soon to strike,
Then he searched for her for many hours.
To many its now history,
And visitors come view the site;
To Joe it was the end of sense,
And the end of his sober life.
The alcohol doesn’t make him forget,
Just helps to dull the pain;
Until he finally passes out
To awake in the jail again.
DANCE, DANCE, DANCE
What’s that?... You have two left feet.
We heard that many times.
Why just sit there and watch?
How can we change your mind?
Of course, nobody has two left feet.
What is so hard in moving your feet?
Left, right, left, right for the men,
right, left, right, left for the women.
Come on, it just like marching.
You should be dancing, yes!
If you have not done so, start now.
Dancing is the best exercise, it’s fun.
It involves body and mind.
Dancing moves your body.
It challenges your mind to learn
movements, steps or patterns.
It also encourages you to socialize
for it connects you to others.
Dancing makes you sweat
and helps you reduce weight
for it’s similar to cardio exercise;
but a more subtle form of exercise.
Dancing is gentle to your body,
yet, it enhances your motor fitness or mobility,
improves your balance, increases your flexibility
and you develop agility.
Dancing promotes stronger bones,
tones and strengthens your muscles,
aids your blood flow and circulation,
raises your endurance.
Dancing is good for your coordination,
your lungs, your heart, your emotion.
It gives you vibrancy and energy
as well as a better memory.
Dancing increases your cognitive performance
for you gain mental alertness.
It uplifts you and inspires you
to develop friendships.
Wouldn’t you rather be having fun dancing
than put your body through a rigorous exercise?
You attain the same physical benefits;
you also acquire cognitive benefits.
You should be dancing, dancing, yeah…
for it’s easier on your body and better for your mind.

Impress Me With An Old Poem (002) Judged 10/16/20 Received: NA
Inside my heart I have unwritten codes
Those values I enforce by self demand
Unbreachable, my lines drawn in the sand
Their presence helps to navigate my load
With age my principles have not grown old
Though times may change, the heart's still in command
I'll walk a line to lend a friend a hand
My conscience keeps my boundaries patrolled
And even though I do my very best
I make mistakes, sometimes I cross a line
That does not mean I'll compromise the rest
It simply means that I am not Divine
There may be times when I'm falsely assessed
But my self worth is rarely in decline
by Daniel Turner
The teacher whispered to me “I am older than you are, I know.”
I smiled at her eagerness, amazed at her honesty and her big blow….
I do not think so, I told her. As a matter of fact, I know you aren’t.
She said “I am sure I am.” Her name was Ms. Marnt.
I said, “I am just as sure that I am the oldest here.”
“I am sixty-two,” she whispered smugly in my ear.
I am pretty sure that 69 trumps sixty-two every time I said.
She was amazed, and her face got enormously red.
What are you still doing teaching? She asked in surprise.
This is my happy place I told her. It helps my brain waves rise.
She smiled at me and gave me a fist pump to the sky.
I gave her a large smile and a joyful wink from my hazel eye.
“Ain't love grand” is an old expression
Still applies after all these years
Age has no bearing, it's a life long affliction
Not gonna change, have no fear
It's the engine that drives us, it helps us through
The good times and the bad
It's miles ahead of whatever comes second
The sweetest experience you could have
“Ain't love grand” you bet your sweet bippy
Without it, we're lost in a sea
A boring and mundane, existence we'd lead
Love sets our dear hearts free
So keep your eye out for that special lover
They're also looking for you
Don't give up hope, eventually you'll meet
And a lifelong affair will ensue

Contest: My Inner voice told me.
_________________________________________
I would like to think it's my inner voice.
That would really be my choice.
The words of that voice I hear,
Come to me loud and clear.
It cant be from me, it's way too wise.
Sometimes a warning, the voice implies.
Other times encouragement is what I feel.
Words, often soothing and help me heal.
My Lord centers me, always forgiving.
If I take for granted my peaceful living,
The voice will take me down a peg or two.
Helps me to be humble and giving too.
Sometimes I question this seeming attack,
Giving one step forward then taking it back.
I know in my heart its just a wake up call,
Reminding me that pride goes before a fall.
I chat to my voice quite often.
Any harsh or mean thoughts, it will soften.
Yes I know this voice cant be mine,
Its wisdom and love for me is quite divine.
When times are good and compassion I lack,
It sends a strong wind and pulls me back.
When times are hard and seem very tough,
The voice gives me strength so I have enough.
I cherish this voice as a God given gift.
When I need it, it's there to give me a lift.
I lead my life trying to make the right choice.
I am always so grateful for my inner voice.
Why is it when something good is done,
That helps bring comfort and peace
To those with deep pains and grief.
People step in and want the credits,
glory and praises or fame.
They thought of themselves only.
Never even helping or caring for anyone.
I knew that kind of troubling situation
When I chose to care for strangers.
Where others only saw troubles.
I fed the hungry and gave them clothes.
Yet someone chose to take it away.
Pinning the blame on me because,
they didn't get the praises or recognition.
The things I did to fill another's need
was not to bring me the praises of men.
It was to bring some comfort and compassion
Only God should get the praises and glory.
It is His children that are suffering this way.
But people are so petty and selfish.
They ignore the hungry or poor they always see.
As I travel through the places in my mind
Like all the faces on the vine
The memories aren't all mine
Ready to go on the drop of a dime
When we have to walk this line
Coasting through life in a whole new timeline
That will no doubt realign our direction
When we meet it without exception
To discover it's just one big reflection
That will be met with our loving affection
Where I would like to unwind
All these thoughts that I don't want to bind
Because It helps me define
The one who I see dancing in front of me
Makes my spirit soar so free
As I swing from tree to tree
Trying to get to that happy place in my mind
To let go of these memories
That are not all mine
I would rather maintain this down low
So we both come to know
This love that is pouring out on overflow
Where our hearts come together
In hopes, our love will grow
Taller than the trees
As sweet as pie where our love will kiss the sky
Baby, where you will electrify
The outcome when we testify
Our love hits the bullseye
