Out of Bounds

Ilene took an hard look at Dennis
Whose shorts were designed to play tennis
Though he beamed with pride
His balls bounced outside
Perhaps he should try serving Guinness!

Out of Bounds!

Do you know when your sanity's out in 'left field?'
Are you still in the ballpark? Oh, heart, please get steeled!
Though the answers aren't pretty, the truth's there to seek!
It's when I feel the strongest; I'm often most weak!

I don't hate God at all, but I know that man's not
Even close to His Word, such pretense is absurd,
In such great agitation? One's mind turns to rot.
Does it seem friend betrays you, you fear stranger's plot?
'Out of bounds' Sir's the Christian who loves to start fires,
Who burns other's faith down, who claims other's are liars,
In bemusement would torch angels' funeral pyres,
Burn own children to death in attempts to flee hell!
If you're riding this boat friend, things aren't going well!
You'd be wise to jump ship,  or perhaps add less lip
To the cauldron you stir, if you do, I won't tell! 

But you need to give up your strong urge to control,
To be 'out of bounds' hints that you act like a troll!
Try obeying the laws and not stacking the courts,
If you hope to find Love, not just f**k paid escorts!

There once was a man called Boris
Who loved a wee deoch an' doris
Whether his tipple was whisky or brandy
Foreign affairs made him peculiarly randy
When he indulged in extra-marital coitus

Life Is a Baseball Out of Bounds

Life is a baseball out 
of bounds. 
When grounded in foul 
actions, words, or thoughts 
it becomes a strike, 
but can't get you out. 
Line driven into 3rd base seats 
may hurt somebody, but usually 
causes amusement. 
Over swinging makes a big mistake, 
for when someone catches you, 
you look stupid.

But at times 
you guess right 
(she really does love you, "c" was the right answer, that promotions was waiting 
willfully for you, the kiss of a marriage was true) 
and the crowd stands in awe. 
The silence screaming, 
and the ball just barely leaps over the fence.

All, everything in the world seems happy, 
or content. 
Unless, you catch a sight 
of the pitcher.

Out-Of-Bounds

I like you but I know we are impossible
The thoughts of you are unreasonable
You'd never look at me that way
No matter what I think or say
You are what I call rare
Is it because you show that you care?
Is it cuz you show good friend qualities
Now let me think of the possibilities
Me and you might never be
Because a friend is all you see
Wishing that things werre different
If only you knew what I meant

Out of Bounds

Are your dreams out of bounds?
out of reach
Are you affected by todays nouns?
Do minipulations screech?

Are you deaf to the sounds?
stripped of sight?
Crippeld from all the frowns?
because you can't see light

Do you wear a thorn crown?
taste your own blood?
Can't make sense from what you found
perhaps drowning in a flood

Are you trying to make a square round?
walking in the wrong direction?
Walking unfimaliar ground?
disturbed by your own reflection?

Do you carry your past by the mounds?
struggling to set it free
Survive the fall downs?
Thought you had it down to a T?

Is your future out of bounds?
Well, the answer is in you
Are you going to collect by the pounds?
or wonder about without a clue?
