Premium Member Ridiculous Thoughts

Babies have been known to crawl
Up to seven hundred feet a day
Better tie a rope tightly around them
Or they'll wind up miles away

Sex burns 360 calories per hour
Who has sex for an hour
Longest for me is seventy-three seconds
Burn more just having a shower 

In Finland every Donald Duck comic
Was banned a few decades ago
Betcha can't guess the reason why
He was naked down below

Summer on Uranus lasts 21 years
I'm a-packing my bags as I write
Better not forget the sun tan lotion
My epidermis is pure lily white

From around the age of thirty
Humans begin to shrink
Imagine we lived to a hundred and fifty
We'd be one inch tall methinks

During a normal human life span
Hearts beat more than two billion times
So anything less than that huge number
You're dead so it's time to recline

About 400 different kinds of microbes
Coexist on the human body
They don't even wait for an invitation
Like in-laws I find that shoddy

Only one in two billion people will live
To the age of a hundred and sixteen
Sorry for all you nice folks out there
But I'm the one chosen it seems

Giraffes can clean their ears with their tongue
It's dangerous don't try this at home
You may wind up twisted up like a pretzel
And even break a few bones!

Premium Member A Cinematic Vision-I Saw God But Now What

Yes, I affirm, I have seen God
But He appeared and then disappeared
This knowing that transcends mind, left me awed
But until what’s imbibed is assimilated, by fears I’m seared—Unseeking Seeker

Espied my footprints in desert sands, longing to encounter Him in the Holy lands
Vision Cinematic once upon a time suspended from Homers stauros—a sign?
Hither poet ere Christ what visions may he have come across, perchance mine?
Ever adorning this landscape eternal, reborn and risen to us in the season vernal
Cedar beam deeply implanted into arid barren beach no protectorate of Rome
Crimson robe flows about His loins as I peer down from up on high Shalom                                      
Seashore I’ve known since childhood’s joy so rare hence my vision surfaced there
Vision Cinematic once upon a time, from above the clouds I glimpsed a slaying
Azure sky morphs bright sea breeze upon His bleached dry raven locks swaying
Perhaps the Holy Land now rendered elusive I shall grasp my vision conclusive
In conclusion equate a temporary optimistic life, possibility is where I dwell in
For fear of the Old barbate God, His hell is patient, awaiting, we who know sin
The Almighty all-knowing sees all, whilst on His thrown, Lily White glowing thru 
Tell me, is the God of Old Testament different from the God of the New?
Heaven's sake, why go in reverse, for this a mythic trap, a route traverse
Wrestling with their own faith, they’re serving The Book of Skaith
Erosion of civil liberties, fueling genocide and weakening sovereignties 
Dear Lord, if this is what art thou to those on the face of thy side?
Let it be I won’t reside, search then I will, new platforms where I may hide
A vision once upon a time, Cinematic of what images were to me familiar
But now the path is clearer, love’s the only answer in a world abound with failure

Premium Member In My Lifetime

In my lifetime we've come a long way in the USA
   I remember when the signs in the South read 'Whites only!'
No 'Jews or N-word-types Allowed!' -- swear to God
   Cicero, IL was lily-white, as was my high school
With no people of color, Poles and Italians did fight
   No blacks on TV, and the names were all Christianized
Little wonder the sitcom humor seemed canned and homogenized

Today is far different; we're a rainbow of colors
   We think nothing of whites walking next to black others
We've had an African-American President and First Lady
   Senators and Congressmen from Somalia and Haiti
The one drawback is this: With all of our newfound diversity
   It seems we're grinding our gears in the muck of perversity

Overcast

Atop a hill 
            outside a town, 
            a haven like none else 
            is found 

            beneath a crooked tree 
            an ancient bastion, 
            a shadow cast 
            on Mount Zion: 

           'twas my guilt; 
           a price was to be paid, 
           along with every sin 
           upon his head was laid 

            on the Cross 
            the pure reflected light 
            shone luminously 
            lily-white 

            sin forgiven 
            by his love 
            set free 
            Noah's dove:

        In Christ rejoice
to the Saviour, sing and pray,
honour Greatest Love by choice -
give the Lord your life today!

Premium Member The Gladiator

He stood there, gritted teeth, sword aloft
one foot on the slain Gladiator
would they let him live
honour him with the platinum ring
a ring from that albino of metals

 or would they thrust him through
pierce the unbleached cotton shirt
turn the clean bone to blood red
the raised arm of the lady
the lady beside the emperor

that lily white arm, begging for life
he looked up at the blue sky
the whitish cotton wool of the clouds
then with the raising of his arm
the emperor gave him his life

conquest was sweeter than honey
sweeter than the sugar
harvested from beet of the fields
he would live but fight no more
his last fight was the right to live


Premium Member Gabriel

Do Angels tread on the souls of man?

    Guardian to every soul that is conceived
Enlighten knowledge of Heaven in us he weaves
But at our birth he clips our upper lip
And Heaven's knowledge we all forget
Until our days on earth are done
He gathers our Spirits and Heaven's ways are reopened.

      Prince of First Heaven, God's Chief Minister seated at His Left Hand
Thunder and Majesty, Beauty and Grace, Cherubim at his command
Great annunciator to Blessed Virgin he revealed
The sacred Birth of her Son our Savior into this world
Guardian of the Garden of Eden, Daniel's dream he reveals
Buried the Law Giver Moses, Assyrian army he kills
Sodom and Gomorrah he burned to the earth
Yet sings songs of praise at the Saviors Birth
Did he not dictate to Muhammad the Qur'an?
Did he not carry him into Heaven so grand?

       Angel of mercy of vengeance and annunciation
Angel of death of resurrection and revelation
Archangel of the Lord to Truth he does speak
For on Judgement Day all strong and weak
Gabriel shall sound the mighty Trumpet Blow
All of creation God's Judgement shall know.

        God is my strength Gabriel means
High Prince of Heaven to our King
His symbol is of the lily white
In radiance his glory bright.

        Do angels tread on the souls of men?
But with prayer they are called to our command
Human beings are created in the image of the Supreme
And only through Salvation can we become eternal beings
Even angels perish if they lose God's favor
Only Humans by Free Will have the Savior.

       Gabriel do you delay our Judgement Day
To prolong your place in Heaven stay
For once that mighty Trumpet Blow begins
Does the life of Gabriel come to an end?

Premium Member See The English Premiere Of 'Poetic Relegation'

Rumors abound  

All around town  

Lily White  
Needs a knight  

She is tangled  

Being wrangled  

By the tricky trees  

Planted by Peacocks from Leeds  

Wolves are down under  

Hearing wraths thunder  

Drinking Burnley claret wine  

Getting ready to do second tier time  

In comes the Hammer girl  

Wearing expensive pearls  

Bought using Gallo credit  

Wondering, ‘will anyone get it?’ 

Message, ‘relegate’  

Easier opponents await  

Fans will have reason to cheer  

Dousing the same expensive beer  

As players work on maturing skills 

Crunching numbers, paying the bills  

Oh yes, who is going to get dropped  

Commentating, ‘our season truly was a flop’  

Officially closing the show  

Taking the athletic production to parts unknown 

Goal now ‘will want to come back’ 

Claiming healed healthy, surviving a relegation attack

Premium Member A Lily White Bum

Put on his red bathers you're joking
Too tight something out front it was poking
found another old pair 
to cover up pubic hair
He's now off to the ocean for soaking

Now he's looking quite bronze and quite fancy
Ready to meet his girlfriend who's called Nancy
on the sand they will walk
hold hands while they talk
One day she might be his fiancee

Find a spot that's private and shady
to skinny dip with his beautiful lady
several others have come 
they see his lily white bum
His girl's given surname it's O'grady

From ocean water body's cool, appetisingly salty
 Sun burnt skin's feeling sore and quite faulty
He wants to bonk on the shore
She says no that's for sure
He says your excuse is unloving and paltry

His ex girlfriends name was Cecelia
Too often he wanted to feel her
with legs very bandy
he was often so randy
In the sun in in the hay made love to this sheila

Now this oversexed man so begotten
So naughty they smacked his big bottom
but he wasn't deterred
still did what he preferred
Loved underwear made out of soft cotton

Now it's summer he's feeling quite warm
Many old tricks he does often perform
out in his work shed 
there's a double sized bed
Where they shed all the clothes that are worn

It's now time for a warm summer party
Can attend it's casual not arty farty
still daylight at nine
have a whopping good time 
Good conversation and laughter that's hearty

Premium Member Lily In Her White and Red Devil Might

Lily White 
Being firm and money tight 
Headed to the golden sands looking just right 
There was Mr. Bourne and his mouth 
Packing the cherries to go south 
“Young lady what can I do for you? 
Maybe a pint filled with my special brew?” 
Looking at him 
Innocently no sin 
“This should be an easy win
Three points in the bag 
Upper table move a good brag” 
Everything packed away 
Mr. Bourne had nothing to say 
We are going somewhere to be on top 
Develop a winning crop 
Feeling sorry and remorse 
Not needing to be seen in a porsche 
Lily White did not open her net 
Cherry pickers score they did not get 
As for Lily still in her white 
A draw ended the plight 
Nothing on the board 
Except cherries being stored 
For the foxes weekend picking tour 
Later on the Red Devils 
Went looking for something below their level 
Playing inside Aston’s Villa 
Still a 
Chance to pick off the buzz 
And the west ham that never was 
Due to a foul 
Red Devils Bruno went POW 
Before the half ended 
Second goal green wood tended 
A healthy break in the lopsided war 
Turned Aston’s Villa into a boutique store 
A hat trick was commenced 
Ending the suspense 
Aston was done 
In a match they fantasied they won

Premium Member Bowing To Your Grace

Always a smile ambassador of light beams
forever inside joy escapes in silent tongues 
a gentle whisper blows kisses from these soft lips 
in each others company love is perfect

Sovereign ruling commands within the beholders eyes 
always will be a sharing devotion 
kissing under the moonlight cradle 
smiling shadows join when holding each others hands

Precious binding union stands powerful as our souls mate 
with faith held in your words they sing out one kindred tune 
into each others eyes hope glistens platinum through the sparkle 
diamond joining each others dreams through jewels true magic gleams

Shines pure a marriage under one circle love when complete 
forever young and ageless, like a star yes awestruck
one star that forever winks chanting an angel vision once held 
blinding beautiful shooting magic into very breath gasping

You are the best breathless trailing sparkles 
enchanting all candle light dazzling supreme
with you I feel warmly embraced deeply touched 
as the queen enters standing tall before these eyes

Sweet romance blossoms blowing darkness to the wind 
shining beautiful always crowns one rose in your smile lawless 
without words safely guarded within a big loving heart 
crying out inside one wish to wipe away each and every teardrop

Happiness serves a pleasure having the purity of spirit in always sharing 
in the same winds that howls through corridors which echo a place 
inside the heart ruling supreme in the palace stands a regal dream this vessel 
sweetly sails into the rising sun golden crowning kneels kisses your lily white hand
