Let’s sail away to Acapella,
A celebrity haunt owned by Penn and Teller.
I shall act as your prince, you’ll be Cinderella
When we’re sat on a beach in Acapella.
It’s not as sexy as Cannes or as dowdy as Rhyl
But their choirs and ensembles will give you a thrill,
Acapella compares well to old Casablanca,
As you will observe once we have dropped anchor.
Their libraries don’t hold any musical score,
Acoustic folk singers are considered a bore,
All keyboards and trombones were sold overseas
And whistles restricted to football referees.
So you won’t hear the bagpipes of Kenneth McKellar
Or repetitive bass notes plucked by Paul Weller.
Your voice will entrance all the ladies and fellas
Once we’ve moored in the harbour of Acapella’s.
There fishermen bring ashore haddock and bream
Having sung shanties as a well-rehearsed team,
The salty sea breeze gives their voices a rasp
And the youngest amongst them let out a gasp!
Melodic and manly, the crews ride the waves,
Proud of their seamanship, masters not slaves,
They heed the advice of their mothers and aunties
But rarely acknowledge the source of their shanties.
Once a solitary busker was found in a yacht
And by all accounts he deserved what he got,
He was forced down the plank at the tip of a sword
Then his vintage viola was flung overboard!
On the pier you’ll find orators and callers at bingo,
But no jukebox is pumping out John, Paul or Ringo.
Pop or rock music gives locals the creeps,
It’s no wonder that George’s guitar gently weeps.
So, if Customs Control takes your squeezebox or trumpet
Don’t seek compensation, you’ll just have to lump it;
Those instruments go to a processing plant
Because singers are welcome but musicians aren’t.
We shall seek out the nightlife in numerous bars
Where the locals all sing without playing guitars,
Dodge the Lambrettas in quaint cobbled alleys,
Then stride across hills and along peaceful valleys.
So, if you’re tired of concertos or singles by Queen
Book a cruise to a place where they’re considered obscene,
It’s a magical island owned by Penn and by Teller -
The remote principality of Acapella.
So let us sail forth across the briny
In a luxury yacht - well furnished and shiny
To where your vocal range will be valued quite highly,
And you won’t have to sit through Baba O’Riley.
I missed out on the movie star
but I met an American hero.
Oh how humble the paratrooper of yesteryear.
When I thanked him for his service, he said,
“You were worth it.”
Blessed by an image of God
in the footsteps of man.
He’s a preacher, besides.
I missed out, but knew God had his best
set in motion…what’s all the commotion…
We meet great people every day
who’ll be noted by God
for their humble devotion.
When I entered the party
for wrestling referees,
he
was the first to greet me.
At that time
I had no idea of his greatness.
I will always treasure this.
And let me not forget
my dear husband
who I stand beside -
it’s cool that he serves with black and white
striped shirt and a whistle
in what can be a dangerous sport
when 250 pounders charge
precariously in his direction
knocking him out.
Also the knowledge
that the organisation is currently
having trouble
finding new referees to serve
(makes me so proud that my husband
is in the ranks)
they also need women to step up
as women wrestle too.
We all make up this great big world -
movie stars, veterans, me and you.
Wherever you find yourself
be great…
be humble
and serve.

I am beginning to understand
Why when it comes to some
things in life
A referees is deemed to be required
to preside over proceedings
So neither party gets to bend the
rule's or gain an unfair advantage
Problem is if that referee is human
and not a computer
Unwittingly they will also be biased and
prejudice as every human is
And it's then left up to there own
individual interpretation of the rules
As apposed to if the referee is a
computer
Which basis all it's answers and
decisions on something logical
As 2 simply yes or no
Because human beings are far more
complex
And require a multiple choice of
options
Like yes , no , emotions , feeling
all or none of the above
Down to do I tick or place an x
And should it be in a circle or a box
Until we eventually come to the point
where all we can think is
Sorry I've lost my train of thought
Please just remind me what was the
question you asked me again was
and my options are
I said I was going to make myself
a cup of coffee
Did you want one as well
You then answered yes
So I said
Do you have
Or
Don't you want
Milk and sugar
In yours
THE SCHEME:
The system is bad...!
It's really sad.
Times are obviously hard.
It's not easy to come across money.
Though it sounds really funny.
As many can't afford two square meals.
What of paying their bills?
Only being in their shoes will you know how it feels.
Teachers are serving willfully,
But treated with carnality.
Doctors working awesomely,
Still handled with insincerity.
The system is killing...!
The common people are suffering the most.
There's now corruption in every dealing,
Families can't even accept to host.
Now everyone accept how everything goes,
Though it is breeding woes.
No one knows...
What tomorrow holds.
But it seems everything shows,
That nothing will ever change.
Politicians are happily causing rage,
At every given range.
What a blacked age?
Where you see so many smiling faces.
Yet, having so many unsolved cases,
because of bad treatment from people at high places.
The story comes in diverse phases.
The system is a dead brick...!
Unemployment is at the highest peak.
And who are you to speak?
Without political referees you won't be picked.
Such a deal at stake.
The poor are in pain.
And what does the private staffs gain?
Yet,the government believe both are perfectly sane.
Whilst the national crises makes them go insane.
They say the covid-19 is the main problem,
Where as the Russia-Ukraine war has wrecked the nation's laid emblem.
The system is a disgust...!
When the nation is totally misplaced.
Who should we trust?
Since the leaders are debased.
Now both the young and old are desperate.
For they have longed been on await.
Perhaps, they might soon actuate.
And what would be the nations fate,
if that happens by a conjugate?
Well, Let's say a big "NO" to war,
And strife for the reformation of the nation's core.
At least...That's all!
The front of my building has bushes
But also unfortunate gluts
Of something invasive and ugly –
A mountain of cigarette butts.
I’ve never seen somebody toss one –
I doubt if my tongue could be held –
For such utter contempt for the garden
Is certainly unparalleled.
Though smokers must bide by restrictions,
On streets they may puff as they please;
So when time for a toss is upon them,
They answer to no referees.
You’d think they would be diplomatic,
Considerate, civil and kind;
But second-hand smoke and its dangers
Isn’t all that they’re leaving behind.
The next time I notice a smoker,
I’ll follow his trail as he struts,
And gently remind him that Nature
Has no room for his ifs, ands or butts!
Those who believe analogically divine beauty,
like dipolar co-arising symmetry
between polyvagal referee
and polynomial referent,
emerges from a humane ecological truth story
too often forget both positive
and not negative oppositional bipolarity
co-binary principles
of dialogical true and false,
like truly false subjective referees
analyzing falsely true objective referents,
and appositionally vice versa
could not co-emerge bilateral
integrity between dancer and dance
human regenerator and divine regeneration
ecologist and ecological relationship
analyst and analogical co-relationship
metaphysician and physical relationship
without our
experience of ecologically co-operative synergy
evolving
analogically elegant integrity
and therefore dialectically appositional logic
of co-evolving neurosystemically humane referees
and ecosystemically divine referents
in a co-binary +1/-(-0) biometric win/win system
Reincarnating
bilateral co-intelligence of analogical trust
in polyculturally divine physical dances
multiculturally climaxing humane metaphysical dancers
recreating ecologically healthy referent
and analogically wealthy referee
win/win communication stories
Most elegantly poignant for
those who believe analogically divine beauty
emerges from a humane ecological truth story,
as I most polymathically do.
Run Bacon run, the sound come echoing from the gun, run bacon run there is nothing to fear hold on to the third and the fifth gear. The oil is in the hip, grease your joints before you take that dip.
Meringue and carhop is no match for the crown. His body is on fire, and his passion is rolling with desire. The cow is on heat and the miracle is underneath my feet. He is running around in the sty so come catch the bull before it dies; the herd is waiting at the crossing with guitar and drums getting ready for that final home run.
Run bacon run, tie up your belly and run, take off your socks and shoes and anchor your feet in the ground before the mid-day news. Take up your baggage and run before you hear the final gun.
They are no match for your ingenuity, your originality and your brevity the crowd is pressing on with courage, ambition and perseverance but the dictator is hiding in the room and you have to remove him before noon.
Run bacon run the race is not yet done, this weekend promises to be fun if you stay in your lane and follow your gut feeling. You have got to know how to roll the dice and you got to know how to run on ice, you must keep your feet firm on the ground and follow the beam on the screen.
Run bacon run, you have three more laps before it’s done, the universe is watching you, and the crowd is patronizing you.Run bacon run, and take control of the track, the president and prime-ministers are in the stands, they are tossing money and playing lot, and way up in the gallery the Saudi dignitaries are getting jittery and the referees are moving around the field taking notes and observing the “goats”. They have thrown a lot of money in this race and anxiety is swelling in their face but they were not in a hurry, for the estimated glory.
Beacon is turning the corner and the crowd is roaring louder, bacon is getting is on the home stretch and it is pulling away in depth. The eastern stand is on fire and it is dancing with pleasure while the northern stand is cruising with the breeze and water is dripping from their knees, they are also on fire.
The western stand is burning with desire and the bacon has just crossed the finishing line in a striking distance of more than fifty meters. I have got to take the bacon home to cool down this internal fire, and give the niceties their final desire.
Run Beacon run!

The young men and coaches who are playing hard balls
In the long-awaited World Cup Tournament are heroes
They hail from diverse huts, horizons and countries
And they know how to play perfectly many rolls.
And the referees and assistants are heroes too.
Countless soccer players or footballers
In this tournament are true heroes
They are great icons and tireless workers
And yes, they were born with special toes.
And the passionate spectators are heroes too.
Many of these young athletes are not afraid
Of the hypocrites and the racists. They’re outraged, mad
That FIFA’s goons have put them in difficult situations
Where they’re compelled to express their emotions.
And the rejected or deported staff are heroes too.
They know that they are there to play football/soccer
Not to engage in politics. They’re ready to compete like gladiators
And to valiantly defend the colors of their beloved nations
Unfortunately, racist and corrupt politicians are everywhere.
And I hope the future champions win fairly like true heroes.

Before the mainevent
A fella from Canada
The All Aisain World's
Champion hoped to
Unify his title against
the German All pro
Champ. Both men
Wrestled 45 mens
To a draw. After the
Bell the referee with
Advice from members
Of the championship
Committee, awarded
The All Asian Champion
The bout, due to the
Referees three count
At the last seconds of
The match.
But in the mainevent both represent Ives were announced
as world champions and gave a world class performance.
47:31 seconds into the bout both masked champions took
exception to being snobbed by the media and fans, and
Interfered in the bout.For ten minutes these men ruined a world class performance. Both lockerrooms cleared, and all of the interfered were escorted from ringside. The doctors found both men were able to
resume, and the match continued. Then at 55:55 of the restated match,
A man in a yellow mask with "they are me" on his tights, and
"I'm invisible on his shirt" came from under the ring. He unseen by the referee, used a chain and knocked out both grapplers. The bout ended in
A double countout!
