Karma suddenly dropped the other shoe
She bit off more that she could chew
Payback’s a b*tch when you’re a snitch

Its payback time
Januery 15 2024 Danial Shepherd took it to law!
In South Australia, he won the case.'
For he was damaged, in 'the clot shot disgrace'
He was forced against his will' by a 'christian body'?
To climb that hill.' In the real dark of false science.'
He took a shot, a hero Australian I like him a lot.'
Now his

Payback 4 Just Rewards Sowed
Just last before my eyes closed
and I fell asleep
My mind wondered and I began
to ponder this
Other people than I before they so to
go to bed at night end their day with
a prayer
And I assume ask for not only for
themselves but their loved ones as
well
Good luck tidings and blessings to
be bestowed upon them the following
day
As this

A Purposely Torn Mosquito Net
Overnight shall sleep The Delayed Inspector
In a swarming-with-mosquitoes Sector:
The exact wish of his host and Rector
Wishing him the company of Malaria’s Vectors
And the keenest battles with Their Directors,
Since he mustn’t The School Inspector hector
But can’t him leave The Victor
Of a supervisory Role, Very Rude
And intent display of The Shrewd.
A Thirty-fiver impressing he could deprive

Tread Lightly On My Wounded Soul - a Repost
Tread lightly on my badly wounded soul
Lest it return in spectral manner borne,
Time will atone for the happiness you stole.
Ponder the ways you can make it whole
The one you purposely caused to mourn
Tread lightly on my badly wounded soul.
All deeds are written on memory’s scroll
Some like the rose; some like the thorn
Time will atone for

Latent Black Payback
Losses not consolidated leave contributor raw
Arrears rip pages of rational compassionate law
Turblent thoughts toss turn to channel retaliation
Embittered brain rubs static into smooth radio station
Nocturnal curtain eternal drawn over forgiving stance
Tortured cortex tar drips coal smudge repugnance
Behind lids of eyes fingertips pressing upon
Lacking exposure conjures warped projection
Attonement can't be granted during darkness

Your Stimulus cheque has gone astray
To Trump Resorts for employee pay

Payback
Welcome to the house of card
Where guards don't guard
Relax you won't get bored
Just a little bald
You don't need to be mad
After all it began with your dad
When I was a lost lad
So cruel were his hand
That every pain received is like a scorched land
Don't try to be sad
You gonna make my heart hard
He thinks he

Payback, Discretion Is Advised
When the night is at its blackest and
the moon sneaks behind the clouds,
and the owls began to call, you know
there is no place to hide.
When your brain begins to ponder, certain
things that you have done, and your heart
begins to flutter; while your skin starts growing
bumps, you know that he is near.

Payback - For Into the Wood
Payback - for Into The Wood contest
The gate to the path through the wood
A statue on either side stood
Together alone, cast out of stone
They’d love to get up to no good
Boy watching girl and girl watching boy
Maybe they’re longing for x-rated joy
Hmmm, said a fairy, what would they do
If they were alive just like me

Politician's Payback
Our Senator thought he’s flying high,
then with dented pride he wondered why,
he received his reward,
the walking eagle award,
‘cause he’s so full of poop he can’t fly.

Prevarication permits pretend perception, presenting
