Don't like the look of what's going on
seems to you something's wrong
the smell of corruption in the air
look around it's everywhere
can't place the feel of what's happening here
could it be something to fear
the sound of conniving on the wind
a warning call for all thin-skinned
so round and round and round we go
where it stops no one knows
it takes two to tango or so they say
but that was then not today
ask a question and they hand you
the same old automated two-step quango
one foot forward two steps back
while standing in quicksand
pose a query they'll sidestep the issue
and the matter at hand
giving you the light fandango
they'll look you in the eye and deny
it's all a web within a web
behind a web of total lies

Send me a sign, to show me how you feel,
And I'll return my message to you, in a little while.
I'm taking the first step, but it takes two to tango,
So what do you think, shall we dance with each other?
Will you become my lover and my lay with me tonight?
Or shall I leave you to these people and not be by your side?
You see, I'm the one who made you smile,
And you told me that it's been a while,
Since you remember being happy and thinking like this,
But I too harbour the bad memories, that come with this thing.
But if I can take the risk, then I'm sure you can too,
If you can't, I understand, I've been there too darling.
Those crazy misspent days and those long winter nights,
Left us happy and content
And we were always happy when we weren't crying.
But times stands still for no man and it's time for me to leave,
I've got to leave you here alone now,
So you can breathe a sigh of relief.
You may want things to be different,
But I'm a ghost ship passing by,
The guy you thought you made a connection with,
In the blink of an eye and an awkward smile.
In that moment I saw you truly,
As you wished no-one could see you right now,
With your guard down and you hair messed up,
You shone so bright like a nuclear cloud.
An explosion in my heart and then you were gone,
Tomorrow you may not remember me,
But you shall not be forgotten.
A single smile, with your red hair in the wind,
Reminded me of what could be, if I changed a few things,
And forgot those bad memories, that have now engulfed me.
They keep me here trapped, letting nobody in.
I'm willing to risk it all and lay here at your disposal,
To dispose of at your dissatisfaction,
But to keep while I'm still useful.
Until the day comes when you disappear into the night,
Then like a candle blowing in the wind,
Your love will walk out of my life.
But the pains we have endured, shall become our cure,
Make us stronger this time; we can do it for sure.
Just one girl and one boy, how hard can it be?
It's as easy to do as you’re A,B,Cs.

marriage is a partnership and you both will come to find
that communication is basis when it comes to a meeting of the minds
Trevor be kind to Zetoria and support her in every aspect in life
she's the one that God sent to you, your soulmate, your wife
Zetoria be patient with Trevor as men have such sensitive souls
and in all things work with him and let your husband thinks he's in control
It takes two to tango, it takes two to make it right
remember you're both disciples of Christ and on you both He shines His light
talk to each other and always be open-minded to what each other has to say
it might not always be what you want to hear so on it don't forget to pray
marriage that institution that God put into place
a meeting of the minds full of His mercy, wisdom and grace
When you don't see love,
Just go to the sea.
Make the sea breeze
As your love letter,
To send your love for free.
The sea is vast as ocean
So as love is simple,
Yet so unfathomable.
The heart is one foot
In between your head,
Yet so far at a distance,
So deeply felt unrestrained.
The mind is green when tame
While heart is red in passion,
To determine what is mystery.
Like the sea sometimes troubled,
Yet so gentle as the giant.
Love is peaceful as plain desert,
Tranquil yet so desolate to solve.
It needs two people to humble,
The troubled water by shared force.
By looking at distance shore,
Start paddling is a step to go there.
Where heart is poor the mind is willing.
It takes two to tango and dance the wind.
This sea of life is love to a brave.
The shore is way up there,
To get love and life the best.
Whose nerve never give up is strong,
To the sky the bravest we all belong.
Saville row suit with lots of loot
You start to talk - his jokes are a hoot
No wedding ring upon his finger
You hold his gaze and let it linger
You leave together in his fancy car
Passionate kisses follow – you go too far
He promises to call you like some men do
Has he just made a fool of you
You don’t know anything; not even his name
It takes two to tango – you are both to blame
Nine months later and your baby arrives
The only thing you know is the car he drives
One day you see this man in the street
A wife by his side, 2 kids at his feet
You stare at him and catch his eye
He looks at the baby and then at the sky

I have no idea where the idea for the poem came from - it just took 5 minutes to write
It takes two to tango
So here we go
She cooks
I clean
Utensils now have
A never before sheen
Sweeping, mopping
And all such things
Under my control
I put my heart and soul
Into these
After all
Lady of the house
Has to be pleased
The house is always
Spick and span
Initially I was unsure
She encouraged me
Saying, ‘You can’
Our love has since
Grown by leaps and bounds
More so, in lockdown’s
Second round
Physical distancing be damned
We are always cheek by jowl
Love on the prowl
No, no
Our kitchen has little space
That is the case
The 24/7 company
Has made us so tolerant
Of one another
You see
The distribution of
Household work
Has perked
Our relationship no end
Some bickerings do blend
In the chatter
That’s another matter
Finally, an honest confession
No third soul around
It is she and me
And no other sound
Can never take eyes off each other
Yes, you guessed it right.....
Truly, ‘Maid for Each Other’
never go to sleep on anger
keep the lines of communication open and clear
be receptive to what each other has to say
even if it's not something you want or need to hear
remember it's no longer only just you
you're not in this all by yourself
you're now husband & wife, man & woman
in sickness and in health
marriage requires a lot of work
consider this now your primary role
for it takes two to tango
and two halves to make a whole
you have found your true mate, the other half of your soul
put all others to the wayside
trust in each other and the faith you have in your shared love
and then sit back and enjoy the ride
The Lord has blessed you both
with a glorious love connection
so just keep believing in each other
and may you have a union just short of perfection
The human condition often seeks simplicity,
For the complex mind to understand.
Looking through a window of forces to attract &
Repulse, as universal opposition seems planned.
These reactions may appear as solitary, yet
With outcomes that trend towards duality.
As paired views are born to manifest, some to
Follow the imaginary, others reality.
Recalling the phrase, ' It takes two to tango ',
Exemplifies this kinship that's ever-present & true.
Since there's no such thing as the perfect crime ...
There's always a remnant clue.
When we expand this relative philosophy,
To our presence in the world today.
We can see hot & cold, up & down, rich & poor,
Right & wrong, etc.- so many boundaries that guide the play.
Just as were compelled to believe independently,
We're also drawn by others to influence & share.
Begging the question, if this bond is compatible,
Or is it about power and blending to be fair.
As our current condition exemplifies, where
Multiple answers to any question seems real.
Bringing power to confusion and calamity, and
Changing another's mind, is the absolute ideal.
Love is not a math problem to be solved
If you have the right formula; how long
The process, you will arrive in the end
Easy, exhausting maybe, but feel happy
Numbers is business, negotiate is easy
Both aspiration led to loving more worthy
Calculating risk is a sure win to safety
So as relationship is cautious to security
Never underestimate the power of sight
This is how analytics work to love forego
Being loving is worth risking as cautious
Believing what the future holds is a plus
A compass, a guide for a traveler's way
Grant that the Great Force will guide us
In our pursuit of love, life and happiness
This world is worth an adventure for good
To a heart that needing hands that hold
It takes two to tango when alone in a road
Where love is the inspiration to be strong
Life is worth living when two heart glued
In this challenging road only brave can trod.
