Premium MemberBloody minded judges'

Three cretinous judges, have commited to
The slaughter.' Of the B C Ostriches what?
Such a crime and dis-order.' Who knows these
Sleazball black robed ghouls? Who pours
Their water, man its so un-cool who tends
Theif hair who would shake their hand? Who
Would be their neighbor? Who can approve of
Their plans.?

Premium MemberAbsent-minded Heart

Every time I fall in love,
It seems I'm through before I start.
What's wrong with me's no mystery,
I have an absent-minded heart.

I meet a girl, she seems ideal,
But when Cupid shoots his dart,
I tend to duck and dodge so it can't lodge
In my absent-minded heart.

Before too long the girl moves on,
Another romance falls apart.
And when she's

High-Minded

Smoking toking you must be joking
it's a bust I just don't need an altered sense
of time and space or on choking
a mind-numbing feeling of euphoria
as I am happy as a clam
(thank you ma'am)
for as you two while under the influence
of lethargy-inducing external stimuli
proceeded in search of smokeable weed
a.k.a., a whole lot of pot
a joint venture

To the like-minded girl strangers

I am not a coward man de facto 
Who has lots of curiosity courageous
With full of consciences in mind
Having to retreat from girl strangers 

Who's looking for the Like-minded friends
Being young and pretty excels diamonds 
They're attractive to distinct genres of men 
And making them pride while being faint

I understand these be so-called romantic 
But

Premium MemberBroad-minded

My name doesn’t tell if I’ve got
Some meaningly posh coat of arms 
I didn’t contribute to national lot
But maybe I did for the arts
I don’t criticize politicians
It must be the easiest job
Yet I never praise politicians
For this is a job of a yob
So I’m a bit jobless you see
Hope you can guess that I am
An

Premium MemberNarrow Minded

Confined within the steep banks of a narrow mind 
is a cryptic river where men stumble in and go blind
They construct reinforced dams that hold them back
from accepting the candid truth, white is not black
Like the slow-moving current of a trickling stream
their thoughts are clogged and clot like curdled cream

What chance do the recalcitrant ones

Premium MemberClosed Minded People

Closed minded people,
almost seem willingly incapable,
of performing any kind of thinking even remotely critical,
and yet everyone is capable of critical thinking.
I only hope that one day the closed minded start practicing.
A good start for them would be a little self educating.

Mule minded 


Plough, my mule
a furrow in my name 
the almond tree blossoms
there will 
be another furrow 
in my name
memories collect 
spent bullets 
in a mass grave 
in pursuit of knowledge
while yellow flowers
at the edge 
of a memory 
wilts 
not robust enough 
to plough another furrow

Sonnet 11 Big Words for a Small-minded Fool

The vote was between a sage and a fairy!
One of the sass and the other is made of brass!
Well, the people spoke up and used their vote like a kid at the dairy!
The people voted for the red one who acts like an ass!

A voice that never stops to think of its effect on the

Premium MemberDouble Minded

No coincidence 
that I have at the least
two of most everything
for navigation

generally favoring
one side over another

though mostly straddling
the lines between – the tight
I walk...life’s many journeys
of balance -- 

Balance, is Free Will on shaky
display – what man does to avoid
both the Devil and God

small, under developed 
hands, attempting to juggle
infinite worlds and stars….

In my new life in Portugal, living in a small village and before I had a dog, I needed to explore my new country
I bought an old motorbike (Zundapp) the seller advised me to buy spark plugs, so I bought a few which I put in the tool leather bag under the seat.

Premium MemberAbsent-Minded

The husband
Opened
The door
And went out

He went
Down
The flight
Of stairs

On the way
He forgot
As to what
He was out to do

He forgot
Where he was 
Headed 
For…

So, he climbed
All the stairs 
Back up to his home
And rang the bell

Finding him empty-handed
His puzzled wife asked:
“Has the dairy 
Run out of milk?”

Just how small can small-minded be?
Small-minded is that thing you see
That walks with small steps constantly
But goes nowhere you want to be.

Small are their own small-minded thoughts
That resonate from nil to naught
And traverse in small-minded ways
Self-centered trips through sterile days.

Small are the hopes and dreams they claim
Which lose perspective frame-by-frame.
It's just a small-time picture show
That
