Mediocre We Must Not Flatter
Mediocre we need not flatter With laurels on a cheap platter: Hero’s Effort make a matter; A dropped metal’s heavy clatter… “What is right” we foully batter And Future Foundation scatter, When save we just can The Latter And ensure True Victory later… Mediocre we must not flatter: On our clothes staining mud spatter; Problems feed and they are fatter, Tires allowed to be flatter... Don’t...

The Platter Clean

On a Silver Platter
E-arnestly share time to all, L-et them have it too easily; I-nstead of closing your eyes, A-llow them to open and S-ee. C-ome to the rescue, A-ugust twenty-first Monday; L-et your aid or assistance M-ake the fret fade away. A-im to praise and please T-he name of the Father; E-agerly give love to the world, O-n a silver platter....

The Platter Was Brass - Let the Music Play
Rainy evening and the blues jump out at me! I've heard that song before - but not drifting through shallow walls on Eutaw Street where the sidewalks Have been rolled up at five... Rainy evening and some sly musical note says "Close your umbrella and come on in, no need to walk alone!"... "No Fish Today" on the window... Is this some kind of freaked out...
