Premium MemberThe Holy Whole

The Holy Whole

Bent To Know Will
Loving Laughs Limit-Less
All Is The Rest, Left Unknown.
Sad For Salvation
Partial To Changing…
How Can't You? No. We’re Alone?
Endlessness Effortless En'ternity Expressing
Motherly Nurtured By Life's Blithe Soul
Each Witnessed Bleeding Nor In-Tended Blessing
Robs Our Connection To The Whole Holy Role.

Premium MemberTurkey Legs

Thank you for tender flesh so sweet
Uniquely known for your dark meat
Risen to fame as a rare treat
Known as sticks that are fun to eat 
Each person asks for a repeat
Year after year, you face defeat

Lovingly fried in hot peanut oil
Eaten quickly before you spoil
Gobs of grease on aluminum foil 
Save us from high cholesterol.

Premium MemberBerliner Divisions

At a glance (glimpse) 

To the average tourist
the wall is (was) the divide
between east and west
Checkpoint Charlie
the obvious choice
point of reference
almost irreverent
in its poignancy

To see the cultural divisions
needs close obs, more diligence
The guest workers from the east
restless from centuries of abuse
and ethnic cleansing
abrade against western ways 
I hate you, I don't know why
I hate you but I do
surfaces at night and
the policing of this only adds to this
increases the tension 

The Ufer bars, the nightclub
under counter guns and hand outs
of pills that could kill and do your intellect
are all part of this

In a harmonious kind of way
this melds and mashes and makes up
what is Berlin
a very lovable and culturally 
diverse city.

                             Obs ... I broke a glass
                             it went into a million pieces
                             the floor is full of small diamonds
                             they are sharp so watch out for your toes
                             I pick them up one by one

                              Imagine if it was small diamonds
                              A million diamonds ...
                              I could put them in the window frame
                              When the sun came up it would twinkle on them











 *  - If I had a million diamonds - I would not been more happy -
                        - My family are mine diamonds. :) -

Eras

Interesting scenic sway on swabs of society.
 
Portrayal of high fashion. Obs and such ilk have no place in the vista of kaleidoscopic train. Of amplified sexual sway.
 
Changing by the eras.
 
What would the eighteenth century say to such displays of flesh and loutish behaviours?
 
At this stage in humaity peasants rule the displays of street.
 
Oh such rancid awe. Chewing rat nails on a sluice dump.
 
Oh how enticing the aroma of bin.
 
With a deodorant of smog the land does smile under indoctrinated senses. Whilst the ten centimetre fat black and white bug plays a happy tune and the window shines its foreboding omen to the people of Seth.
 
It is possible to repair seams with the water from a washed up milk glass.
 
Oh how the frogs laugh and party under duvets of champion cabbages. Once they swirled to the ballroom bang.
 
EATEN.EGG.EXTRA.ENTWINNING.ENTER.ENTOMBED.ENERGY.ENSLAVED.ENCAPTURED.ENIGMATIC.ELITE.
