to paint his birds before they flew your way,
then talons reared, determined to deny
the devil’s flying wolves a win this day.
Your heaven’s filled relentlessly with fire
as deficit engulfed...

Only foolhardy Homer simpletons
wanna rub this lamp ...

Release the purging power of the hydroGen

All divided brainiac Lisa Simpsons

Keeping a cap on the atomic bottle

It’s madness to proceed any other way

You keep me at arm’s length
Afraid to draw me closer
Afraid to let me go
You want me close enough to see
But not close enough to hold
Close enough to warm you
But not close enough to burn

You want...

When I was born, I could have ended up
an orphan, or worse I could have been aborted,
but instead I was wanted, adopted by two wonderful

I pretend I'm alright
And put my best stance forward
Wear my brave face
Tryin to be smooth
Just tripped on my shoelace

My foot slipped off the pedal and into the spoke

And then...

Burn it down
By Michelle Morris
15/07/2022

You light a match
And burn it down

It's true and clear
You know what works
What you fear

Desire for
Freedom...

Your auburn tresses floating through the trees	
Where at the sight of you a willow weeps		
And throws her golden leaves upon the breeze	
As you almost bring me to...

Women set this world on fire

Glad for man's talk heart to heart
I said in glee:

Ambition is to play the Cello
Becoming a most talented fellow
Cellists make such sumptuous sounds
Delighting audiences the whole world round

Releasing the Trump Monsters

The Trump madness deepens
And the world grows darker
The evil ones have been released
The wild things are growling

Howling at the moon

Running amuk
Infecting us all
