One more chance to glance at you,
one more time to dine with you,
one more chance to share with you,
one more time to walk with you.
Dear to love you, dear to trust you,
dear to run a mile with you,
one more time to stir my emotions,
one more chance to get that promotion.
You have teased me with your mysterious frown,
and dragged me through the busy town,
making me wait for seven days,
and piercing me with your melodic phrase.
Climbing mountains and steep rocks,
glancing at your winding clock,
from the Forbidden City in the Far East,
I came to you on bended knees.
One more chance to listen to you,
One more time to embrace you,
One more chance to hope for you,
One more time to dance with you.
Standing against the kissing wall,
You make me feel very tall,
Oh how I yearn for enjoyment,
my bleeding soul long for contentment.
Long days and sleepless nights,
I wait for you until broad day light,
One more chance to sing with you,
One more time to say I love you.

Now fly,
show off gossamer wings;
Blessed with hunger am I,
brave with weatherproof strings;
I aim for a bullseye;
Now write,
letters are alchemy;
Each reader can take flight,
learn you intimately;
My set glitches delight;
Ink flows
from deep inside the gut;
Inhibition will close;
Setting free classy smut,
I mix in clean cut prose;
Words scream;
Cognizant of my soul
they hijack a daydream;
With pen, paint, or charcoal
take it to the extreme;
Lines dance,
walls crumble to freestyle
celebrating a stance;
My stanzas run a mile,
I always take a chance;
You soar
so high when you give in;
I’ve crashed and hit the floor
and stood up forgiven;
I’ll write forevermore.
LETTER TO MY EX
You're such a beautiful creation
Unique among all creatures
Your brilliancy is unhidden
Voice like that of the angels
Smiles like attractive cheese
Your set of teeth is a charm
Sparkling like the galaxies
Always lost when stare at your lips
Still can't rid my mind off its spell
Nose too good for just a smell
Those thick and dark eyebrows
Stroking my nails through it as I browse
It's all I need to have my anger dowsed
With or without you in blouse
I was glad I had you housed
But....
The pines of the apples are numerous
That makes you very dangerous
I don't consider you religious
Even your ways are hazardous
And you are too furious and callous
Your beauty is but just a trap
It doesn't deserve a clap
The evil in you flows like a tap
You speak crap and u got a slap
I did that to avoid your stab
Cutie, a name I gav you since our date
Still in my phone up till date
Being with you was just a waste
An experience copied not for paste
Now I know how you taste
You came into my life with a smile
But left behind a bunch of bile
Bile strong enough to pollute the Nile
Your stay was never worth the while
When next I see you I'll run a mile
FM CONCEPTUAL
That wonderful day in forty-five
Which made me feel glad to be alive
Returning home from across the sea
A chance meeting between you and me
Festivities raging in full swing
The feelings that living again will bring
I Looked across the crowded street
Saw someone looking Oh so sweet
In your uniform the nurses had worn
Slightly dirty, slightly torn
A lovely smile the captivated
Any man who would have waited
For your return to homely shores
That special person who soon would be yours
I did not know it would be me
All that beauty I could see
I smiled at you and dropped my pack
It made you laugh and look back
I plucked up courage just to try and see
If you would come for a drink with me
To my surprise you answered yes
From that moment on I would never guess
That love would smoulder for a while
I thought that you would run a mile
We danced the evening away until the dawning
At the Pallais Ballroom then in the morning
I took you home, not far away
And hoped I would see you another day
Next evening celebrations were still going strong
You would have thought that there had been nothing wrong
Least of all a six year war
That razed our county to the core
The rubble that used to be our street
Now flattened like a bedroom sheet
But no one cared no more wartime noise
Just people trying to regain prewar poise
Our first kiss I remember well
And it felt kinds swell
Your eyes were closed so I closed mine
Our arms wrapped tightly, it felt fine
You looked radiant despite the dust
I was shattered but felt I must
Keep you close away from harm
It must have been my magnetic charm
Not long later, a few dates more
I asked the question and I felt sure
You would say yes, which is what you did reply
We hugged and kissed which surprised a few people passing bye
I put the ring on your finger
And we named the day we did not linger
Married three months later to the day
You first smiled at me when you came my way.
After fifty years we are still together
It just proves that love can last forever
I still smile and laugh as I remember that day
When a beautiful angel came my way.
MY PIECE MY PISS
You're such a beautiful creation
Unique among all creatures
Your brilliancy is unhidden
Voice like that of the angels
Smiles like attractive cheese
Your set of teeth is a charm
Sparkling like the galaxies
Always lost when stare at ur lips
Still can't rid my ming off it's spell
Nose too good for just a smell
Those thick and dark eyebrows
Stroking my nails thru it as I browse
It's all I need to have my anger dowsed
With or without you in blouse
I'm glad I'd you housed
But....
The pines of the apples are numerous
That makes you very dangerous
I don't consider you religious
Even your ways are hazardous
And you are too furious and callous
Your beauty is but just a trap

You need correction, tired of your insurrection,
perhaps you missed out on decent distribution,
however, all is not lost, give you one more chance,
you'll know it's time when I give you a disparaging glance.
A disarming smile can make you run a mile,
make you pause, reflect within, take stock a while;
there's enough to deal with, harassment, sexual pests,
why is it that some men are obsessed with breasts?
The Mona Lisa destroyed everything you had to say,
there was no reply, digging for reprieve from yesterday;
agrreement would be astonishing instead of admonishing,
I'm hoping you'll realize that there's something missing.
'Let me take you, let me take you to the dance,'
you'll know it's time when I give you one more chance.
TRUE LIES
When expressed love is all for show
Almost a hug, and that fake smile
And yet thinking no-one will know
Yet looking elsewhere all the while
It’s just a poor version of guile
Who might question gestures like this
But if they knew, they’d run a mile
Still more room left for artifice
It is reaping what one may sow
Unlike feelings that raise the bile
No response is the Quid pro quo
Pretence one step away from vile
With no honour left to defile
Yet one can tell it from a kiss
It feels like turning down the dial
Still more room left for artifice
When love is real the blood will flow
Sensing more substance over style
False expression is pretty low
Be found guilty when gone to trial
Lie after lie in a great pile
Think if you believe it is bliss
Maybe resistance is futile
Still more room left for artifice
Claiming it’s normal is facile
Of truth, it is antithesis
So adopt another profile
Still more room left for artifice
Detective Laura Norder wouldn’t recognise a border
Her jurisdiction knew no bounds when there had been disorder
As the toughest girl in town she always won the day
The cells were crammed with criminals that she had put away
Laura Norder stood her ground if she should be confronted
By vicious thugs who’s I.Q. seemed to be a little stunted
She never failed to face them down and see it all as fun
But then she never failed to tote a fully loaded gun
Laura Norder went downtown, her senses they were tingling
There were people all around with whom she could be mingling
But all those people scattered when a knife man blocked her path
She grinned and left him battered in her bloody aftermath
Laura Norder had no way of knowing his connections
And later she would still indulge in zero introspections
A mobster aimed his gun and said, “You gonna soon be dead.”
A blur of motion left a bullet lodged inside his head
For Laura Norder, highly skilled with weapons or unarmed
Left the foulest gangster prone and she herself unharmed
She always had the upper hand; she’d see minute inflections
And spot the tiny details that belied their next intentions
Laura Norder wasn’t someone anyone crossed twice
Treat her decent and I guarantee she’d treat you nice
But leave a greasy fingerprint or shoe print in the mud
And you’ll be lucky if you’re breathing… in a pool of blood
For Laura Norder walks a line that’s almost tightrope thin
She’ll skirt the very edge of law to bring the felons in
So, run a mile or run a thousand, she will hunt you down
And you had best be ready… she’s the toughest girl in town
Laura Norder isn’t butch, she’s pretty as can be
But that and what I tell you must remain with you and me
I found her sobbing in her car beside a busy road
And when I asked, “What’s wrong,” she said…
“I think I squashed a toad.”
(The song to be sung in the To The Tune Of... Cruella DeVil)
Monica Devil, Monica Devil,
If she doesn’t scare you, no evil thing will,
To see her is to take a sudden chill,
Monica, Monica Devil.
The curl of her lip, the ice in her stare,
All innocent children had better beware,
She’s like a spider waiting for the kill,
Look out for Monica Devil.
At first you think Monica is a devil,
But after time has worn away the shock,
You come to realize, you've met a sly fox,
Beware of Monica Devil.
This vampire bat, this inhuman beast,
She ought to be locked up and never released,
The world was such a wholesome place until,
Monica, Monica Devil.
If she doesn’t scare you, no evil thing will,
To see her is to take a sudden chill,
Monica, Monica Devil.
She’s like a spider waiting for the kill,
Look out for Monica Devil.
Her menacing grin, her sinister style,
She’s got the look that would make you run a mile,
The world was such a wholesome place until,
Monica, Monica Devil.
I want to fall in love but not a chance.
Not even one handsome man who can dance
has shimmied his way across the dance floor.
Hands up...I give up...no romance no more.
I want to fall in love but not a hope.
Those dating websites are only a joke.
A decent man there I could never find.
Hands up..I give up now...so never mind.
I want to fall in love but fell behind.
I am older now and life is unkind.
Men take one look and then they run a mile.
If they only knew I could make them smile.
I want to fall in love and I still may.
If meant to be, than he is on his way.
