Security Misfit

For a security slot, A Sluggard,
For a praised company, rather haggard:
From long unemployment a drunkard,
Full tankard draining after full tankard.

Also, a listener at nights to Bard
And could Security suspend for Card, 
Still, hopefully, he seeks to be her guard:
In many circles this fulfilling dream bared,
Most likely to collapse, if he is barred…

But a company won’t

Premium MemberWide-Awake Napping

Fn->spacebar lights my keyboard
So I can see the keys to score
Wanted placement in the game of poetry
Top links in line so I'm not ignored

Little mouse help route my cursor
So more corrections makes things less worser
Oh I miss my pen and eraser
And the days I was an ardent curser

But today I let the keys do the

Premium MemberA Funny Thing Happened

A soft rain was falling,
A roof top lullabye I call it. 

The sound was so peaceful,
The rhythm lulled me to sleep. 

I dreamt I was sailing,
In puddles and streams. 

The thunder cracked,
I awoke...my roof was leaking above me.

Premium MemberCat Napping In the Sun

A rainbow sliver of sunlight hits my white socked feet, as I sit in my recliner.
I notice the cat has strategically placed himself in the line of sunlight also.
My eyes begin to close, as I snore even more loudly than Shark, my tabby.

Premium MemberNapping In the Sun

Lying outside in my pajamas soaking up the sun
Time of day matters not, no one is coming here anyway.
It could be morning, noon, three p.m. Who cares?

Cozy and comfortable, watching cardinals swoop in
Eating thousand dollars worth of bird seed a month
Okay, that may be an exaggeration, but they are eaters.

Listening to the neighbor’s incessant lawn

tranquility setting in

oozing marshmallows on top

Premium MemberNapping Sleeping Falling Off a Chair- -

Shhh! quietly I nodded off nearly sleeping;
Hush!! Dogs barking outside reeling;
While I nodded nearly napping;

Mom looks at me as I’m breathing heavily;

While I nodded nearly sleeping;
While I nodded well-nigh sleeping;
Fell, fallen off the chair yet still sleeping;

Sleeping while I nodded nearly;
 
While I nodded nearly sleeping;
So I nodded still well-nigh sleeping;
As I am falling to

Premium MemberWonderful Napping Weather

Falling asleep softly
On a mellow summers day
My eyes flutter open at rooster’s crow
I sit in my porch chair listening to the gentle hum,
Softly serenading me and the cat to sleep, 
Lulling us with gentle wind chimes and grasshoppers buzz
A variety of bugs are humming and droning
Spreading magic melody throughout the meadow
Wonderful napping weather.
I let my

Premium MemberYour Wild Side Is No Longer Napping

You realize your wild side is no longer napping
Fully aware you are trying to sneak away
Leaving her in a suitcase or closet
With the fancy miniskirt she loves to wear.

You realize your wild side is listening when 
She flings your thigh-high-look-at-me-boots
Onto the bed and sneers at you, 
And you cannot stop looking at your make up

Nap
Babies like them
Angers toddler child
Cranky attitude puts me there
Research says teenagers need them the most
They are the hardest to convince
Bones and teeth need them bad
Old people game

What great astounding resolutions will I quotath

Caught Napping

CAUGHT NAPPING

Cocky 
bluffing like the covered duck

Tripping
boasting 50 years sojourn ahead of tomorrow 

Stuffing
filching away our future in a "Ghana Must Go"

Sniffing
snuffing life out of the halves not

Smiling
suffering in the midst of plenteous

Praying
screaming to God in a pinnacle for miracle 

Thinking
scheming to uncover the protruding umbrella 

Dropping
raining fuel scarcity in fuel city

Wailing  
knocking hope

Premium MemberThe Power of Positive Napping

An hour long nap right after lunch?	
I find it helps me quite a bunch!
When sleep is missed the night before,
It matters not if work or play,
A nap is balm to stress of day,
And this is not just metaphor!

A nap is like self-given hug,
That brings a smile back to your mug.
No, don’t discount its healing pow’r,
A

While You Were Napping

i look at you; i see a lot of light in you
i see a lot of hope in the eyes of you
i look at you; i see a lot of sun in you
i see a lot of free in the thoughts of you
i look at you; i feel you as a flame.
then,
i feel you burst
