Wolves were wandering all alone 
At home 
On a Sunday AM morning 
Goodies empty in their storing 
Feeling pretty dandy 
But there was this craving for candy 
Calling to deliver toffee 
Thinking it would be grand with tea or coffee 
Having a bout that is diagnosed as the blues 
Everton thought this visit would be easy and cool 
Dressing the part to be a muse 
Everton arrived at the Wolverhampton field 
Ready to honor the business deal 
Before they decided to rest 
A foul was committed wanting a confess 
Goal awarded after the arrest 
Penalty shot scored due to contacting play was a mess 
When they returned from the break
Another toffee the Wolves did take 
Followed by one more 
No need to buy any toffee inside the convenience store 
Three nil was how it ended 
Table jumping wolves worthy to be commended 
Aston’s property now must be defended 
Royals from the Eagle state 
Made a date 
With Aston to tell him ‘wait’ 
“You have not gone under 
Buzzing west hams could still blunder” 
“Do you have a plan you’re royal highness?” 
Aston Asked with kindness 
“I will give you two 
The rest is up to you” 
King Glazier did explain 
About Aston keeping his villa in the high profile game 
Three points appeared 
Creeping closer claret and blue army got near 
Being told nothing to fear 
Blowing bubbles 
Seeing no trouble 
West Hammy United buzz was all secure 
But are they sure 
One could be shown the door?

Premium Member Let the Foxes In and Shut the Villians Out

Foxes found themselves at home 
In a match they could dial in by phone 
A villain came into their midst 
Trying to cure themselves from the bottom half EPL cyst 
Noted as the visiting team the villains knew they were going to be creamed 
As the Foxes put one in before the half 
There is a call for a cold one on tap 
The Villians are facing another trip back to prison 
With only spending a quick time on the EPL mission 
During the second forty-five 
The Foxes stood tall saying villain’s nice tri
The Villains were staving off execution 
And that is not amusing 
Along came a penalty the Villians did do 
And they put it under video review 
In big bright scoreboard light
A message said the Villians did something that was not right 
Hometown fans waited 
For the verdict to be stated 
Handball was the call and that was against the football law 
A foul against the Fox in the sensitive box. 
One on one the two teams had a show down 
When the Fox took the shot a goal was found 
Losing by two reality was starting to be true 
From the points standings the Villians were at twenty-five 
With the possibility for the big league to say bye bye 
Using the corner, the Foxes snuck it in 
And they crept closer to confirming the win 
With the rain sending a message 
The Foxes were not done with the clinical lesson 
Hitting in number four 
Completed the score 
The Villains went home bitter and scorned 
Knowing they had been warned 
On the positive side inside the smaller Champions ring 
The Villians can show case their talent of goal scoring 
In the league drop the stages are still nice 
For the Villians who were caught in the EPL heist 
The Villians cannot go any lower 
And need the attitude of spring forward 
Hopefully they will get out of this mess 
Without relegation calling for the arrest.

Premium Member Imagination Nil Daydreams Still

Imagination Nil !!!-
Daydreams Still !!!

Inspiration - no long born of, imagination lying in deaths arms.
Creation - no longer lives in, daydreams in decay alarms.
Imagination and daydreams have little force and no charms.

Function for this brain seemed best served at realities door.
Compunction, for inspiration and creation – for me – where little more
than some insignificant attainments resurrected from my memories store.

All is gone, slips into the a void, an abyss of the forgotten,
where all decays, lays there in the dark and goes rotten.

Thank heavens for imagination, daydreams from some,
for inspiration and creation brings forth what’s to come

that can, that will bring the good, or the bad, from
the minds with imagination and daydreams – it’s done.

Premium Member Nil By Mouth

Plink. Plink.

Drip...
follows drop,
follows drip,
follows drop.

Plink. Plink.

Resolutely, incessantly,
each precious globule
snakes, languidly, along
labyrinthine tunnel.

Plink. Plink.

Seemingly-innocuous fluid
conveys crucial content
and necessary nourishment:
sole source of sustenance.

Plink. Plink.

Life-affirming droplets
are welcomed, eagerly, into
damaged vessel's system.

Plink. Plink.

Naught but air to pass lips,
"NBM" had been decreed.

Plink. Plink.

Temporarily,
    but indelibly,
        branded.

Plink. Plink.

In and out the lusty nil wedding bells

(Inspired by Marvin Goldfarb's great contest in which I won a trophy cup and wonderful poems by other English poets as noted below, 'LESSON IN LIFE' by BrittBrattTechy, 'Every child deserves better' by Poetryintheblood, and..'TODAY'S SOCIETY' By Gary. W. Hill.)

My poem below then read the poems I copy pasted in my author notes.

Instead of ' in and out the dusty bluebells ' my title is:
In and out the lusty no weddin bells'

If you are ruthlessly one of those
who changes lovers like you do your clothes
and if you do beget each time
think of the hapless kids you leave behind
rather than the silly selfish fun you have each time
for you deprive them of either yourself
or your ex-other half.
Gosh, it took two to make a child
so it takes two to make it glow and grow
For nurturing them, both of you as couple need show
A single mother is modernity's most pitiable unfortunate sight
Modernisation to be blamed for this miserable plight.
How many times will you jilt and ditch partners
just for moments of nihilistic pleasure and excitement?
But why let your innocent tiny tots suffer
as if children were mere byproducts!
And byproducts of what?
I say, of flitting, fleeting lusts and desirous passions,
when senses can't think of consequence or contraceptions,
for damn it you can't know where and when you will be carried away...
Then the resulting lil angels
to be cast aside as some leftovers
from past whirlwind romances.!

All that merry-go-round of flirtation
Marriage replaced by cohabitation
Falling in and out of the cycle-like-love
again and again for a newfound turtledove!
No probability of any stability
esp with the scenario of promiscuity
while kids suffer from disability.

Didn't the Creator expect all couples
to stay together till 'death do 'em' apart
So how dare any of His creations
stick together merely till 'they get tired and bored? ? ? ?
As if the heart were an everchanging love mart!

(pls do read the copy pasted poems by others below to get a gist of what im reiterating above)


Premium Member Expectations Nil

Expectations ?, - Nil !


Yet, I would still love your heart to beat out a tune !, 
on a soft bed of multi coloured rose petals.
I would love to feel your heart beat, midnight till noon,
so softly, sweetly, fragrantly - a bed made of precious metals
to lay upon, to play upon, to make love on, under a full moon.
I would love for your thoughts, your feeling for me to be
a hive, honey combed, filled with sweet nectar from the bee.
I would love that your feelings for me be a positive flowering,
not the negative force, souring the moment, over powering
all the good that could come, that could be the you
I would love to experience, the you I thought I knew
- believed lived beneath that mountain of stone cold
indifference to me, those walls you’ve built, standing so bold
upon the shoulders so straight, so beautiful, so strong.
For you, you are always right and I am always wrong !
That seems to be the guard, essence, the tune of your song.
