Flipped Hourglass

Count, onward we go, pivoting seized dunes,
Tempestuous pilgrimage outstretched phase,
Tick - tock, flops, 'tis a dog's day afternoon's,

O'er perpetual movements like scarred toons,
Lunar ... solar, yond the masque, nowadays,
Count, onward we go, pivoting seized dunes,

Small sand on big sand, tea time, macaroons,
Some glass menagerie extreme breadthways,
Tick - tock, flops, 'tis a dog's day afternoon's,

Fitting bits of earth, pour drain, honeymoons,
Time swings on, crystals encased pair relays,
Count, onward we go, pivoting seized dunes,

Scheherazade misses a night, whole moon's,
Bear flight you hefty load, back in someways,
Tick - tock, flops, 'tis a dog's day afternoon's,

A wonderment, gadget, like boom-box tunes,
Shifts drift collared in this time capsule gaze,
Count, onward we go, pivoting seized dunes,
Tick - tock, flops, 'tis a dog's day afternoon's.

Premium Member Make Someone Smile

Make someone smile today
Believe me it's really easy to do

Just smile at someone on the street
And they find it very difficult
Not to smile back without thinking
But is this guy kind of a loony

This is the way society has become
Sadly you appear to be a loony toons

Trust me after a while it will be the norm
Just like in days of yore
Time will soon turn back the old clock
Of pleasant conversation

Do we think it's actually possible
To revert to a more civilized way of life

It will be quite a shock to the system
Everything is strange to begin
In time life will be as it was yesterday 
Oh for those simpler times

Loving your ways

Wavy teeth make me spank the pastor
Questioning my faith is a major disaster
Look out for me in the darkness screaming
Opened blades cut deeper than fame
Wait for me I sought your light
Moons hid you from my trusted Dog's tonight
juniper king of flawless beats
Untitled your world Kick rocks to free the beast
Madness under stary nights preach the saddness
Laying down hopes to get beamed up like scottyrr
My call sign was shut the fk up patty
room to expand creep up the chimney
spare me some change I will consume your sanity
Gooney toons trace my roots to the loony rooms
guard dog going insane catching flames embracing Odin's name
root for Kings to sing out the silence
wavy good by to the saints of peace have arrived
do you think I called the police?
I invented the pain I bleed for the streets
they called me a rat face the facts I am fatter than that
all the fame riches money hoes and nonesene means nothing but distraction
I plan to freak off the attractions
Under rules to school fools I await your home boys who think they sweet
make the sun go down that's when church is called to meet.
raise hell unforgivables

Premium Member Kryptonite

Crystallized red, gold, green nocuous clang
of vertigo, bird-toons tweeting, knees on the rocks,
rolling eyes, coverlet-lids closing, discovered
in fetal position, cocooned in butterfly net.

“Don’t you have to go to work?”

“Have you eaten yet?”

“Shouldn’t you use the bathroom?”

“Your coffee’s gone cold.”

Vortex of colors inside chromatic coma, schmoozing muse -
her elixir mixed with vibrancy, deliciousness, chamomile.

Rippling sounds of waterfalls, crooning creeks, sentient sleep.

Lips murmuring as if in meditation, rambling in fevered state,
alliterative, rhyming, tossing crumbs and cookies, tasting
death and birth - primordial sampling, inordinate linguistics.

Rip Van Winkle at your side. He’s been kryptonized,
espoused likewise - in dreams and nightmares, terrorized
and raptured by a sea of imagery of red, gold and green—
might awaken in twenty years…twenty years that disappear.

Premium Member The Candor of Art

The artist looks at the meadow, 
He remembers details when all others…
Forget.

Uniquely transformed…
By the sites, he has seen, forever.
Upon arrival at his home, 
The soldier gathers strength. 
Supported!

The studio is open, 
waiting for the gladiator,
to do battle with canvas…, 
New breath to stone, 
Images… set free…
Re-born.

Now, 
No longer waiting…
Impatient.
Whiteboards, White paper, 
Sketches of black and color…
Racism? 
Nay, 
Expressions of non-compliance
to the ideas of others! 
“Art”.

“Off with their heads…”
The queen dou’th call, 
I do not like what you draw!

The green is wrong, 
All out of place, 
The song is loud,
heard clear in space.

The soul behind the vision, 
of something, barely seen, 
Shared with empty “toons”
from the newest meme. 

This is basic and beyond just “beautiful”. 
All men should gather, take heed and see.
Remember.

Premium Member Witnessed a Robbery

Witnessed a robbery take place yesterday

As incredulous as this may seem

Was sitting in the food court at the local mall

Happily minding my own business

When all of a sudden I hear this guy ranting and raving

Slamming his leather bag down on one of the tables

Marching over to the coffee stand

Which had an assortment of sandwiches and drinks

Displayed in front which were accessible to the customers

Proceeds to pick up a sandwich and a bottle of juice

And goes storming off into the mall concourse

Without paying, yaking incoherently as he goes

People just sat there dumbfounded

Wondering what the hell just happened

We all witnessed this act take place

None of us reacted or believed what we just saw

Now this was either a looney toons type guy

Not responsible for his strange behaviour

Or a very clever, creative crook

Making us think he was looney toons

Assuming the average person wouldn't react

Enabling him to get away with this unimpeded

He was later apprehended by mall security

But we never did find out the whole story

Hmmm! Pretty creative I must say

If indeed it was a preconceived masterful plan

Premium Member Words and Phrases

What do you think of when I say the word “love”
Flowers, blue skies and sunshine
And so when you think of total “commitment”
It's a lifetime of souls intertwined

When you hear the phrase, “cool as a cucumber”
Does a vegetable come to mind
Or a frosty mint julep on a hot summer day
When you leave all your troubles behind

What d'ya think of when hearing the word “gorgeous”
Long legs, nice boobs and derieres
Some slender bodies with flowing blonde hair
The slenderer, the more merrier

How about, “he bit off more than he can chew”
Certainly has sexual overtones
Okay this is bringing out the bad in this fellow
Thinking I may have to postpone

What do you think of when I say the word “charlize”
A most beautiful South African lass
She's got everything a young man could ever ask for
Old guys are even cooking with gas

When you hear the phrase, “not playing with a full deck”
“looney toons” sure comes to mind
Don't like to categorize but with some guys it's obvious
They're beyond being helped I find

Disney World

Everybody would love to come
To this enchanting place
So much fun in the Florida sun
Where a magical kingdom awaits
You can have a truly golden adventure
The happiest time of your life
Colourful toons bringing joy
To everyone’s delight 



So step into this wonderful world
Fantastic fantasy for boys and girls
Come have a dance with Cinderella
Or the sparkling beauty Belle in yellow
Have some fun with Mickey and Minnie
Play with Donald and his friend Winnie
Have a rub of Aladdin’s lamp
Careful that Genie doesn’t smoke you out
Granting three wishes only for you 
In this wonderland dreams come true



Naughty Pinocchio still telling lies
But the truth is growing between his eyes
You’ve got to look out for the Seven Dwarf’s 
All hiding from little Red Riding Hood
Don’t forget Snow White and Frozen
With their love for secret potions
Beautiful stories turned into animation
Written by minds with imagination
When toons are born into Disney world
Bringing laughter, fun and singing tales
You’ve got to follow that yellow brick road 
And find your favourite walt disney show



Let’s cool you down at Blizzards Beach
Watch dazzling shows with technology 
Have a splash at Typhoons’ Lagoon
Laughter, fun and sliding too
Eating out at our restaurants
So much excitement going on
Visit some exquisite boutiques
Stand in awe as dolphins’ leap



So welcome to this spectacular City
The heart and soul of Walt Disney
The tinsel and glitter of this town 
Where children and parents play around
The most adventuress place in the world
Where cartoons cast a magic spell
So come and join the love of Disney
And take away a piece of history



They made us believe in fairy tales
In a land of make believe
They brought them to life in a colourful world
For everybody to see
Now we have childhood daydreams
Little faces full of surprise
Disney did something special
Bringing colour into everyone’s life

Premium Member First Love

Is there any greater feeling

Than when you first discover you are in love

And you realize your love is returned

It's the most thrilling sensation in life

Nothing else can even come close

It's the highest of highs

The ultimate of human experiences

Exhilarating to the nth degree

Makes you feel like running through the streets

Yelling, “I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love!”

You want to share the feeling with everyone you meet

Sure can be embarrassing though

Hugging total strangers

Especially if they are of the same sex

Eventually, people will try to avoid you

They just have no idea

They think you're some kind of looney toons

Who has just escaped from the local asylum

No matter... carry on! There is NO greater feeling

JUST ENJOY!
