Premium Member A Car For Every Perusasion

There's certainly a wide-ranging variety of different cars
  From the Model T to the Tesla -- no longer wildly popular

People want choices to match their lifestyles and moods
  Manufacturers want trustworthy cars that can 'deliver the goods'
    Reliable rides -- solid, unspectacular engines under their hoods

Rich sports stars tend to go for muscle cars and speed
  Jaguars, Porsches, Ferraris; Dodges, Pontiacs, and AMCs

Famous celebrities, of course, crave the ultimate in luxury
  Rolls Royces, Mercedes, Lincoln Town Cars, and Bentleys

Nerds and computer geeks worship the ways of the Japanese
  They drool over Hondas, Toyotas, Mazdas, even Mitsubishis

Which brings us to the environmentalists, willing to pay a bit more
  For hybrids, electric cars, even ones that run on cooking oil and Indian lore

But I've saved the final two lines for a new car so incredibly smart
  That without any driver, it appeals to cutting-edge intellectuals
                     ~ and fearless hearts

The Time Is Now

Jesus is calling come my people come for the Kingdom of God is at hand.
Arise out of your spiritual graves, look into me and make a stand.

There was a Super-natural move of God. When He parted the Red Sea giving Moses the self- assurance of power to stretch forth his rod.

These signs will be accompanied by those who have the faith to believe.
Somethings are only caught than taught then you can abundantly receive.

Miracles just don’t happen you have to expect. Be open, and flexible, don’t limit Him using your own intellect.

Run fast into the Presence of your Lord and Savior, trust in the Heavenly Father embrace the one you love.

Through the Holy Spirit He will have the readiness to supply provision that only comes from above.

We are like Paul prisoners of Jesus Christ. The "Perfect Sacrifice"   has complete ownership there was an ultimate price.



First you must get ahold of the Kings of Kings and Lord of Lords, and love Him with a perfect heart and all you might.
The "Blessed One" will anoint your eyes with eye-salve that you may me. Laying before Him seeking His face stretched out that is the Supreme key.

Attention:  An urgent call for action has gone out. There is a wide – ranging noise in the Spirit, the grounds are beginning to tremble, and shake, the heavens are getting excited, a greater pulling away to get alone with the Lord.

Groundwork, preparation, foundational truths, a greater dying out of the flesh
It's all for the God's Glory. This train is about to pull off "All Aboard."

 Get ready for the signs and wonders and miracles. This loud noise is the 
Holy Spirit it’s 
 
              Sounds - ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( 
                                                 OF
                                                “Rival" 

Behold this is a dawning of a new day.  Surrender your all to the Lord allow Him to have His way.
A very important yet dynamic shift is about to occur great multitudes will be affected it’s about to take place.
Don't get ahead Him allow the Holy Spirit to secure your pace.

Set down your pride, all your rights, pre-concede thoughts humble self-put it all at the feet of Jesus and bow. 
This super-natural move of God you do not want to miss so come.

Premium Member A Timeless Doll Dl - First Place Contest Winner

Lost dolls, forgotten in the attic,
Neglected and left to gather dust,
Their once-loved beauty is losing its magic.
Their appeal is fading as fashions adjust.

But one day, they were rediscovered.
Their box opened with a gasp of surprise.
Among the dolls, one had been recovered.
Her timeless charm, with no compromise.

She was not like the others, you see.
Her beauty was not based on trends.
Her allure was not ephemeral or fleeting.
And her appeal would never depend.

Her porcelain skin was still flawless.
Her hair still shone like a golden sun.
Her eyes still sparkled with enchantment.
She was a treasure, second to none.

And so she was dusted and polished.
And displayed in a place of honor,
The timeless doll was cherished.
Her value is forever a wonder.

In a world that's ever-changing,
life, with such love wide-ranging.

Rigorous Sphincter Ani Externus Muscle Workout

Rigorous sphincter ani externus muscle workout

Amidst the rubble strewn landscape ruins
courtesy healthy helping of prunes
linkedin to derrière issuing
melodious flatulence classical tunes,
yours truly renown buttuck blaster,
possesses wide ranging repertoire
ofttimes employed
as poignant powerful score
within battlefield documentaries
trademark trumpeting tush
indistinguishable from authentic
soundcloud moaning mortal wounds.

Far and wide taketh me
courtesy self propulsion vis a vis whoosh,
where roaring madding crowds
come together at behest of agent provocateur
transmits electronic signals
instantaneously triggering flash mob
rearing to experience mine
unusual claim gifted with musical tush
Sphincter ani externus 

(External sphincter ani) 
a wasteland Tom Sawyer doth rush
away from finishing his hucksterism
to escape (wool ewe believe) sheep push
lambasting of rambunctious herd
echoing within Hindu Kush,
an 800-kilometre-long mountain range 
in Central and South Asia 
to the west of the Himalayas.

Please pardon cheekiness (mine), but
proctologists (Colorectal surgeons”
the more up-to-date term for same)
quite earnestly astounded, befuddled,
enlightened, flummoxed, intrigued, et cetera
abbreviated etc, a Latin term
which is used in the places
where we want to say
"and other things" or "and so on"
ahem so over the moon
whenever I let (powder milk) biscuits fly i.e.
id est which means “in other words.”

Scientists scrutinizing plumes
of rarified gaseous spewed out me bum
discovered thermal columns of hot air
forced thru flat **** plane of muscular fibers,
elliptical in shape
and intimately adherent to the integument
surrounding the margin of the anus
on average measuring
about eight to ten centimeters
can rise as high as a mile,
which rising air strong enough
to lift all kinds of things
like dust, water vapor,
and broad-winged hawks.

Thermals frequently form
when I scale mountainous peaks
and expel prodigious invisible flatulence
hashtagged as silent but deadly
because the sun
heats mountainsides unevenly!

Thanks to you know who
one can often see cumulus clouds above thermals.

Premium Member Illusion of Separateness

Life's greatest heated human tragedy
the one we are likely taught not to see.
Our wide-ranging worlds are well connected,
as atoms wiggle we're all effected.
Separation is optic illusion
a fitting end to one's soul seclusion.

Gurus say I am you and you are me,
that's the way it's supposed to be.
If I am Abe, Alice, Aron, Abu;
are they really me, how can that be true?
One respects collective society,
pledges to individuality.

It's in us to foster global good will
hold high hopes for oneness not to stand still.
Compassion is the real eternal key,
the single most important reality.
In the rays of moonlight truth shines so clear
allays all our unstated oneness fear.

When face to face, touch hands to then embrace;
stand up, stand in, alone and take your place.
So don't be offput by any confusion;
you're not separate, it's an illusion.
Lots of wisdoms will surely come to pass
while we lay lulling the scent of sweetgrass.

of human existence is the illusion of separateness"

But we imagine that we are not."

Premium Member The Elderly Man and His Speach

The elderly man we call leader
Would shout as if our ears couldn't hear,
Then whisper with the expectation 
We would agree to adhere to his
Foreign invasion~
Ten million strong from every nation.

Who was that girl, he could barely recall,
But he finally did (mis)speak her name 
Because it wasn't on the teleprompter,
Neither was the word "illegal" 
and his mob soon let him know 
the word he should use is "undocumented."

The cities are crying blue tears and repenting,
Their citizens are no longer pretending 
That all is peace and joy and love;
Our children are kicked out of school 
To make room for all the illegal immigrant poor,
After all don't we owe them the American dream?

I am, you know, adamantly* against illegal immigration. ~Hillary Clinton

We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked, and circumventing the line of people who are waiting patiently, diligently, and lawfully to become immigrants in this country. ~Barack Obama 

The issues surrounding illegal immigration are wide-ranging and complex, but there is no question about the need to secure our borders. ~Roger Wicker

I have fought on the front lines to prevent illegal immigration. I know Donald Trump will stand with me and countless Americans to secure our border. ~Joe Arpaio

*adamantly(adverb): a way that suggests one will not be persuaded to change one's mind; firmly and resolutely.

Longevity of Hate

Written By:  D. Collins 6/21/25


The longevity of hate has a wide-ranging girth.
It lies dormant for a while then has a drastic rebirth.
Since the 12th century hate has destroyed many populations.
The glimmer of gold, theft of land, and complete annihilation.



Anyone that is different are categorized as lesser men.
Yet, those responsible claim they're devoted Christians.
A skin color, your religion, or whom you choose as a mate.
Will certainly expose you to the longevity of hate.



It's a multi-tentacled beast that goes into foreign lands.
After not controlling the Poppy trade they fled Afghanistan.
Rare earth minerals is now top priority on their list.
Should you choose not to concede your life is at risk.

Premium Member The Blue Pacific and Me

"Lucky me - I grew up by the Pacific sea" ~ quote by poet 

Its depths and vast breadth suggest a mystery. 
I've pondered it from airplanes, boats, and shore - 
the Pacific Ocean in all its glory, 
from its gentle lapping to its mighty roar.  

Underneath the unchanging blue expanse, 
lies a wide-ranging world of features  - 
magma oozing from deep sea vents, 
blue whales, giant squid, and all kinds of creatures.

Earth's biggest site's fascinating history, 
from Polynesians in palm leaf canoes
to the battles of recent generations, 
and the many lives we had to lose.

More than that are personal memories 
and evocations of sites and smells,
as my eyes well with salty moisture. 
I am with Mother, picking up seashells,

And it's to the Pacific, I must thank
for the sunsets and moonlit nights, 
promoting long lost budding romances.
Oh, how I miss those sweet delights.

Covid-19 the Upside

The globe is in lockdown,
the borders are closed
the news is all gloom and despair,
Covid-19 is the new kid in town
causing panic and fear everywhere.
Our lives are all changing,
effects are wide ranging,
whole nations are put to the test,
and though we don't like it
these methods to fight it,
some things are changing for the best.
In future, through habit, we know everyone
will all have incredibly clean hands,
and as the whole nation goes self-isolation
you can avoid people that you can't stand.
The shelves may be empty,
our shopping restricted,
the choices a narrower range,
but Fresh fruit and veg are still plentiful,so
maybe our diets will change.
The Missus no longer complains about football
and too much of it on TV,
now I smile while her episode of 'Eastenders'
is put back by the BBC.
So stiff upper lip, folks, keep raising a smile,
all in this together we'll pull,
life is not risk-averse, whatever the curse
just face it with your glass half full.
