Long Kick some butt Poems

Was it a cruel twist of fate?
Sneering, laughing chance?
Perhaps something I ate?
A bad bout of happenstance?

It wrenched and tore at my gut,

there stepped onto the stage a horrid clown,
an ego-maniac who makes his own staff clap for him
and who fast is bringing a nation down.

By Danny Sroda

There is a story which has been untold
Which I cannot any more withhold
It's about a man who you all know
Who lives out in the land of snow
Father Christmas was his name
Until that...

I guess about 2 years ago
in my old unheated home,
which I have since sadly left,

Ready to party, ready to fight

When that energy consumes your body. 
Feeling weak and muscles seem shoddy. 
That means it’s time to get up and stand.

Perhaps the scariest word
In the English language, cancer.
There is no easy way to come to grips 
With this deadly, unforgiving disease

It's unimaginable the tremendous damage
It inflicts on the human...

The party was lovely, beautiful, happy people laughing and dancing

The creed of the gang
Blood in, blood out.

Identity
Attention
Insecurity
Acceptance

All gifted at the place of blood.

Slash a face
Forget any grace
Stab an enemy
A day in infamy
At the gang’s entrance
A deceiving sentence.

Only way out
Prove you can fight
Kick some butt
Spill...

A love that is not shown but you cannot hide

Ideas for improvement.
No one has bothered to listen.
Winter of discontent.

Slacker employees?
They work hard. Push with Square Wheels.
A Spring awakening?

The landscape. No blame.
Should have planned downhill journey.
Thumping could be fixed.

Are Bosses unaware?
Square Wheels are always thumping.

You finished your lost journey, now go!
To where you are loved and can really fly.

To a place where you are hugged and

We did not realize we carried it with us
Until our smiles were wiped clean
And the laughter had stopped

The Sonnet Man really needs a side kick,
But not a side kick that wants to fight crime.

And shatter things like a very wide brick.
