Perry the pretty prissy persnickety octopoose
always wanted to be a passenger train’s caboose
But you have to live in the sea, some said
The look he gave them could strike me dead
you are an octopus, someone said, kind of rude.
This octopoose bit him as if he were plankton food
I kept my mouth shut, as well I knew I could and should
Revenge from a persnickety octopoose is never good
Last night when I went to bed
I thought about what I had said...
I was wrong,
so I sat down an wrote a letter...
your my love an only love
I want to go back as before...
knowing it won't be long till your...
sweet lips will cerass mine once more
oh my darling, can't you see
I need your love to eternity
I'll be true - so to say - to say- I love you dearly
is far better than just two words
YOURS FOREVER
"Is it better to speak or to die?!"
You speak of my future,
Dismissing my nature.
Yet, just for your suture
But what of the life I capture?
I continue to elaborate,
Still, you dominate.
The emotions I demonstrate,
You find ways to understate.
Can you hear my breakout,
Or do I have to shout?!
Right — to you I merely spout.
Will you listen when I’m snuffed out?
Officially, I can’t hear nature,
Not when you're an oppressive creature.
Will you ever nurture,
Before I make my departure?
She looked familiar, but I had no idea why.
The instant I walked toward her eyes, I knew her.
It is Katy Perry, of course.
I love her as a red head, I love her as a blonde.
I usually picture her as a brunette.
Today I could see that she looks great without hair too.
Not many people can pull this off.
But she can.
Wow!
Few super stars can pull off a sticky cupcake dress
Some would not like the frosting, sprinkles or the mess
Katy Perry twirls around in hers, showing all kinds of flash.
I think she is wonderful, others might think she is brash.
Matthew Perry, American series. »Friends » 1969 2023
Bye, Bye, Chandler Bing,
You were the good friend,
Always ready to make you laugh,
You were Monica’s friend,
In the American series «Friends»
You will never grow old,
Your departure is so sudden,
It feels like a comedy,
Bye, Bye, Matthew Perry,
Your life was a fairy tale,
If we want to smile again,
Just think of you,
To your bright face,
In the cafe «central perk»
Bye, bye, Chandler Bing,
What a great idea to die in Los Angeles,
The city of angels, you were one,
Your place now is in our hearts.
Forging ahead, means so much to so many folks
for myself this means multi-planetary inhabitation...
this is a great undertaken cause many think it's a hoax,
Space X doesn't think so, nor I, as a matter of fact...
we need to hurry, hurry on up there, establish human,
existence, not to perish like dyno's did, stay focus on that,
why now, well we can, need to provide all people a living...
"one universal work force for humanity to survive",
think what this will accomplish, ramifications' stayin' alive
doom also gloom can happen any day, every day we do not...
launch our spaceships, set up infer-structure to these means
like turning our head, when passing homeless, also 'r' astronaut's
{People First) We have of much concern a worldwide situation, needing to set folks an example in our daily life, everyone of us need to come together become a unity Family, a 'Great Planet' Violent acts have been around now since sunset beginnings, time to change, too this new age millennium, all humans not some
let’s start by shifting, our anguish, frustrations to maturity...
we need this 'New Beginning' after covid, to solve Life’s happy endings;
Let’s case our weapons, use free love for work, play, to inspire, all grown-up's
by reaching-out with open arms, too end all this violence never 'deadly gunfire' be as it may, while all will pray for love of our planets 'World Peace' Rate'-Top's
You borrow to pay your Son's Education
in hopes he will get through, that tough
Dissertation...
you find yourself up to your neck in debt
a Collector has taken your rent...
it is difficult to remember that original
objective, was to get to your son's Big
Event...
Wow!, to be quite honest, you explain!
I would truly over-extend again...
at my drop of a hat, never to complain...
Son you must look forward
to where you're going...
at this same time, you must
also look aft...
for where you did come from,
as to see all this, my money...
was truly well spent wisely ~ for YOU
not a DATE ~ you wanted at your Prom! 'SMILE'
Y'all make me so crazy when you're gone,
it seems to me you never left at all,
then when you call... you do go on,
ON - ON - ON
so that I have to
Say to...
you... Be gone, Be gone.
Gone...
Yes, it's about time someone sets this Worldly 'RECORD' straight...
you have risen to our 'Bad Boy List' done things to control others,
we're watching you on TV - Bad Boy 'Russia' a day will come I can't wait
Bad Boy 'China' yes, we made you a superpower, thinking you can get away
with anything, not to realize someday you have to answer to God & USA...
you're proud to make a 'Monkey' of us all, then you can go into space today...
bad boy 'Korea' "Rocket Man" are you for real; Your like a fly in this ointment
of life, trying to bully other countries, for what no-good reasons anyway...
with rockets you spend assets, instead of providing a quality of life not torment
do you bad boys think this world will continue to turn a cheek are weak, or sick
on our record we have space, have 'WON' that race for this entire human race...
our satellite's,'L' Gattlin G technology with 'LAZERS' can shoot down yours quick
Love is truly your reason to be living
on earth, to spread love is to be giving
not just at home, too this planet
just ask 'Superman' his is Krypton, planetary...
those memories you share...
linger on long after you are not there
you touched many too be sure your...
entire life you have touched folks everywhere...
you can make dark times bright
only you can make this planet right
this is what you have in comin with Superman
on this earth you're a 'super star', earthly man a fan...
for many a wonder women maybe that special one...
whom always said you were 'so bright', caring, sharing...
giving, praying, not complaining, this loving, special
person that calls you her 'SON'
I was one new boy on my block, had confidence
when seated in this classroom, for a conference
speech ~ waiting ~ not knowing what to expect
other nervous players were all new to me, yet
I could hold my own, when placed under their
deBate microscope ~ I had to show them here
all my cards, or be doomed ~ master's indeed
toying with me, but not for greed
needed to read between those lines, too succeed
a lion's den I was in ~ ready to proceed
joy came over me, at last ~ my turn up, teacher
wanted to incorporate ideas, this or that feature
here am I, to tell you, after quite some time
lessons I've learned back when, helped me fine,
today, I feel joy, now that was that
not nervous for a speech I'm still at ~ up to Bat.
Jury Duty, such a response ability it's not
this, that is hard for me, as much as my encounter
with folks to or from their court parking lot...
this entire experience is hilarious, both before
or after court; One Spanish lady asks, please sir
where is them alabateors - What did she say - oh sure...
why she meant those 'elevators' - I'm going there myself
on our way a black fellow yells-out "ho-dee- doe fo me"
well, he said 'hold that door' for him, so follow me said, I
ordeal is over, on my way to my car one thing I hear
monback - monback- monback ok you, you can go
I think to myself - 'come-on-back' not till next year...
in my car he was mon-backin' me, now, so leaving
he said at my window sir, spare any change
my car is on 'E' meaning on empty, five bucks ok...
driving away, in my trusty rearview, joyfully, he is wavein'
note: He did leave me his phone number - Fi Fi Fo Fo Fi fi fo
554-4554 on Pennsylvania Avenue - ay!
Y'all make me laugh so
hard...
silly it's as I've never laughed before
then when...
you scribe your foolishness
oh how my tummy akees
my side...
my giggle will wiggle my
flabby...
I'll wait-up all night
for...
you to call,
then you write me ~ I'll get...
Gibalie-goobbly-blop
Bibil-ly-boobsal-ly-goope
Jibery-momsal-ly-gue,
as if you were Mr. Magoo
so, swell no regreat...
every time you contact me
it all starts, just to hear your voice...
again whoopee!
my giggles just can't stop,
out loud; Y'all make me laugh so!
