Premium Member Six Million Dollar Man

Your eyes are failing
It's been a while
Although you've got
That cheeky smile

Their service contract 
Long expired
So grandpa you should 
Have retired

Your speedy legs
Once raced the best
Now traded plaudits
For old string vest

You fought and won
With strength and poise
Now mostly sleeping
(plus buzzsaw noise)

We know your parts
Are obsolete
Just worn so thin 
Or incomplete

Yet priceless you,
So loosely held
No screws in place 
Just fractured weld,

Have grasped our hearts
With all you've done
Guided the truth
For everyone

Your value 
Can't be held in stocks
Although you've shared
It's you that rocks 

You might be old
And slightly rustin'
You'll always be our own
Steve Austin

You are quite priceless
That's our opinion
To us you are
One in six million

Premium Member PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR ADMONISHING US TO FEAR HIM REVERENTIALLY

July 20 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Proverbs 24-26

Key Verse – Proverbs 24:21 My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change. 

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR ADMONISHING US 
TO FEAR HIM REVERENTIALLY	

Praise be to God for admonishing us to 
fear Him reverentially to overcome:
Mischievous persons with their meddling pestilence
Mishandled pressures due to mocking pleasures
Mismatched plans midst misbehaving posture
Mistaken plaudits caused by mystifying ploys
Misjudged pursuits along melting poverty

Proverbs 25:22 Praise be to the Lord for 
rewarding us for our:
Heart of honour
Hope against hell
Help for the helpless
Hunger toward holiness
Hatred against haughtiness
 
Proverbs 26:10 Praise be to the Saviour for 
rewarding us toward:
Victory from being a victim
Venture that vies over void vices
Virtuous vanquishing with our vow
Valuable vigour against vicious vanity
Valiant voyage against voluminous vexations. Amen!

Just a Rhyme

When I listen to Eminem I purr at his work,
it perks me up. 
I'm then lured to write some words 
and create a new verse, 
that's rife without purpose. 
No clichés are surplus, 
and I've no nerves on the surface.

It's just an urge that occurs 
wanting me to nurse to life a rhyme 
as my digits tingle and fidget for playtime,
ready to mingle, in the meantime my brain feels no limit.

Set out in a stride that flows like the tide under bridges, 
with a strive to blow minds and entangle sublime rhymes, 
that I interwine between the lines leading in time 
to a chorus that I hope to be glorious.

Set with the wind in my sails
and a drive that supplies the hammer and nails, 
that wield together a motorised thought weapon, 
with a complex that threatens, 
to propel me like witchcraft 
as I spell to fast
with the sails at full mast, 
catching wind that's pushing this raft 
and blasting through my mind as I draft 
both good and daft rhymes. 
Which seem easy and slide through peasy, 
thanks to the greasy ease of a motion that doesn't freeze, 
but travels at crazy speeds that please me. 

It's not the work of a degree, 
it just gives critics and plaudits a read 
that they can witness 
with it's dense intense thickness. 

I don't care if it's rubbish 
it's not written to be published. 
I just like how my left hand smudges the ink, 
as there's no time for it to dry as I rapidly think.

I just let it flow 
and I know 
like the tip of my nose
or the nails on my toes,
that it's simplistic 
and explicit,
no need to be drastic
and complicate it. 

I just like to glide like a cable car ride 
because I'm able that's why.

I just like wordplay and syllables 
that prevent the event of me feeling miserable. 
It's just a cure that's what it's written for, 
just a rhyme to read once and not once more.

English cricket's got rickets

Seedier media’s spewed a lot of late

Crude is all about lewd Bazball’s fate

Ben eschewed then stewed had to wait

On Stokes & ECB feud did concentrate


A tomfoolery catapult at a summer fete

Deranged but change won’t contemplate

Glummer fans can berate but no debate

Won’t halt dumber all out assault template


Fawn this new dawn to thrill will facilitate 

Once did reinvigorate now does agitate

Ban this bland brand just a T20 ingratiate

Test tragics thirst perverse curse won’t sate


Hiss Brook took the piss & will aggravate

Ben we no longer trust and must castigate

When he then lost his zen & did denigrate

His men & all the plaudits he did generate


As Test cricket’s saviour we didn’t hesitate

Defending best sort of our sport appreciate

Stopping unwise franchise rise we participate

Tests out of date follow a reprobate mandate


Cogitate let's all just trust Bazball & meditate

New chapter couldn't create must abbreviate

Lust did rust so deviate to your ego capitulate

Ben did abrogate before he then did abdicate


You bled said in red Tests would emancipate 

New autobiography a publisher did ingratiate

Was a helluva scheme to your team castrate

Then on Test cricket you literally did defecate


From embers lets remember when did venerate

Rule of cool cats & sexy sultry strut of their gait

We did anticipate how they did titillate & titivate

In the thrall of the gall as Bazball did captivate


Is this the future of Test cricket we did ruminate

Rid of Covid new bid to stop the skid scintillate

Calling card is freeing the old guard to salivate

Enjoy the game again as wins did demonstrate


The swagger turned to stagger did defenestrate

Of course horse bolted.. before closed the gate

We’re entertainers the reason they did extenuate

Facts and their foolhardy acts will still repudiate


Our chagrin as on seriously thin ice they do skate 

The plain disdain for the WTC did really infuriate

England is in such a state has enough on its plate

From the ruins nothing to excavate as we excoriate


But blunder here and down under won't exonerate 

Uncouth truth can’t be hid from livid fans who hate

Bazball gesticulate just a cheap buzz like amyl nitrate

Join Me Inside the Noise

Join me inside the noise
Dark, sleek, cool gestures
Exascerbating the tales of whoa
Incinerating wisdom
As the embers and ashes fly
Float, crash land in displays of
Rudimentary insolence, let go
The sense freed
Of their solemn platitudes
Taking favors, sipping gently
Sparse deliberate crowds
Tip their hat
And everyone else's
The signal strength is mine to
The blue power
And all the (dazzling), (luscious)
Shades that wave the pointed wand
To the brilliant, buoyant
Unhindered hip
Chatting their teeth
On the nearest
Piece of flesh
Seasoned to their liking
My eyes view the foreign scene
My ears see light
Drawn out hypnotic beats
And Marley-flavored taunting mood
Is deprived, (destined), tapered
To plaudits
Given by the spurned wonder kids
Sowing their grains
And slandered ineptitude
Deep, swallowed
Diluted into sublime mantras
They beg to take their turn
On felonious stages
Scream, yelp
Exhaust the violent yearn and rage
Deny emblematic sieges that
Fire at will, their will
To bottle this tangy elixir
Closet bulging from exceeding capacity
But room for you to taste
Just pass baton
Mind to mind
Wistful pleasure hates it
When you cage it even
A moment too long.

Premium Member The Concert

This moment I've been awaiting for a number of years
To see ones heroes live see them crunching their gears
I'm on my way to Glasgow with workmates and friends
To finally see live their fantastic tracks they have penned

Anticipation now flows into the concert arena we await
It's the buzz, the hungered wishing, terrific time trait
The moments now close for the lights start to dim
For this three piece on song a most wonderful vim

Strobe lights, Bass intro, my awaiting now starts
To us fans they're our hymns soon singing our hearts
Shouting cheering hearing the first vocals now voiced
To the chorus now reached such incredible rejoice

Mellow chords to lead guitar which slice through the air
Decibels so loud for we simply sing and just stare
Drum solo so immense it's orchestral to our ears
So energetic melodic sublime, to magnificent tier

Thanks, plaudits are shared, encore after encore
It's not just their lyrics, it's their quite beautiful scores
This moment I've been awaiting for a number of year's
To see ones heroes live, I have to admit there were tears

Plaudits

As the blazing king from far eastern horizons 
Glows and smiles on wee infant toils beneath, 
He's by man's ever-sprawling greeting praised, 
Basking in vast kudos by eyes and bared teeth.

The new sovereign savors every regal sign 
As he arcs past the virgin noon's latent line, 
Unwilling to pause despite cloud-born snags, 
Undeterred by jealous dusk's advancing tags. 

Against evening's envies moves that demigod, 
Still unshaken by all enemy barriers miles high.
Into puffed twilight barricades he finally sinks, 
And once-lauding eyes dim as doom taps nigh.

Like our gloom-deposed emperor here-above 
Is each offspring born of mortals' carnal love.
Salutes of great joy hail them once they come, 
And rise beyond midday into life's ebbing term.

When time's long-halted scythes finally strike, 
Men's veiled flattery's replaced by cold dislike.

The final refrain of King Kane's reign

A true good sort of our beloved sport held court...name in hall of fame has its place but nought plaudits sought humility taught to face the rash race to slapdash and onslaught of all out pace which Kane fought and was slain again with a swish of his lions mane and lashings of panache & lacy grace..



His oeuvre could hang in the Louvre so arcane

Heavenly humility hums on simply higher plane

Angelic ability strums his rhapsody of restrain

Classy never brassy this balletic lullaby refrain


Symphony epiphanies aesthetic of his reign

Poetic ebb & flow kinetic that third man lane  

Stoic almost prophetic that cricketing brain

Heroic skipper of champagne WTC campaign

  
Ascetic in the nets again insane how he’d train

So fond of his willow wand traditions to maintain

Never frenetic play to the conditions he’d explain

Textbook renditions history of Test tapestry retain


Weird mystery Robinson Crusoe beard did sustain

Stranded on isle of guile & wile is Kane’s domain  

Martin Crowe did know such style you can’t feign

Never vain or inane with lacy grace did entertain


Didn't complain final mission got lost in the rain

Good sort of our sport from limelight did abstain

No disdain this knight's records forever remain

Memories of mastery & artistry will never wane


Last post gong is a love song feel the Kiwi pain

Goodbye Kane we will never see your like again

Galvanized With Steely Mettle

Countless instances submitting poems
finds me racking
quite a hefty collection of rejections,
the responses lacking
disappointing voluminous vicious
venomous vitriolic backing
quite the contrary,
the prefabricated responses

unsuccessful at hijacking
my "FAKE" toothy gumption
(since I wear dentures) lip smacking
bite size packing
not exceptionally appetizing,
but definitely wanting
with more pungent acidity stinging
(albeit figuratively) painfully digging

into the essence of all bone marrow,
asper this humble,
who will brazenly continue entering
competitions until scathing
character ridiculed of course including
unsolicited yet denigrating
words clearly, definitively,
and flagrantly insinuating

this prolific entity among
basket of deplorables wasting
his precious energy and time crafting
ambiguous, horrendous, and
nebulous word mangling
poetic endeavors attempting
to garner plaudits generating
infamous, notorious, and

sanctimonious renown diluting
the medium, which 
August pantheon replete
with posthumous scriveners
reputations eternally outshining
any facile, infantile, 
and juvenile laboring
in my unbiased opinion 

far more deserving
of a simple bland communique
devoid of any ripsnorting
flagitious, malicious, and
unscrupulous character assassinating
(mine), which continuously insipid sending
(to yours truly) said
tactfully gentle turning

down efforts requiring
nose to the grindstone painstaking
efforts, which witness shuttering
myself within this
mancave, barely surviving
on thin gruel necessitating
copious blood, sweat, and tears with
nary even a shopworn reprehensible glint

bombarding, condemning, and defaming,
hence such determination bedeviling diligence
to espy acceptably blistering
excoriating, and insulting
nauseating mean opprobrium
meted out to me
until such outpouring
of vindictiveness acquired,
I will continue logic bending writing.

Wherefore art thou to find (even trumped) critique?

Supporting Actor

I'm always the supporting actor
I've never been the star.
It seems I'm always the chauffeur
driving someone else's car.

I've always been a loyal player
never the captain of the team.
It feels as if I'm playing a part
fulfilling someone else's dream.

I've always been a Joker
I'm feel happy playing the clown.
I find a sense of humour
helps make this world go around.

I'm honest and I'm loyal
although it doesn't always pay.
Some see it as a sign of weakness
where they can have their Way.

I do things without question
never asking what its for.
I let others share the plaudits
knowing I've helped is my reward.

After all is said and Done
we should be happy as we are.
For if God made us in his own image
then everyone's a superstar.
