When love hits the heart
It makes the body warmer
Is it hot in here?
When the heart feels the love
It makes the mind wander
Is it me?
A love affair,
The sequence of events
Modified the atmosphere
What are you talking about?
The principles of values
Expressed the memorandum
What are you saying?
Read my lips,
When the words are written
It stipulates what has been written
Is it very hot in here?
When the kisses are felt
It stipulates a love language
Is it me?
A intimate love story
The Panders have come to the Washington Zoo.
They’ve got much to say, but near none of it’s true.
Those cute little panderers, both black and white,
make appeals to the left and concede to the right.
They’ll give you down payments and not tax your tips.
Like the Bush lied to Moses and said, “Read my lips!”
They can’t help their lies or the oaths they are takin’,
Such a cute little orange one, and the cuddly Jamaican.
The border, evictions, and the free car loans of course;
I could go on for stanzas, not to beat a dead horse.
“The end of democracy!” if you don’t vote;
they’ll promise a shirt while they’re taking your coat.
Yes, the Panders have come to the Washington Zoo,
tossing nuts through the bars to me and to you.
MY VOICE OF LOVE
FREE VERSE
I beg of you listen to me
Listen to my voice of love
Don' t be misled, don't be confused
Love will come out of the blue.
When I look at you and wink my eyes
That's the voice of my love
When I smile, read my lips, that’s the voice of my love
When I touch your fingers, that's another voice of my love.
The light gentle wind is the voice of my love
The tweeting and chirping of the birds
is also the voice of my love
The sea breeze is the voice of my love.
The buzzing of the bees sipping the nectar of the flowers
The impression conveyed is the voice of my love.
Every color of the rainbow depicts the voice of my love
The rain that falls, signifies the voice of my love.
Everything that moves around you
portrays the voice of my love
Because my love is in the air
Touching your beautiful face and hair.
Read the room and wind your scrawny neck in, Mr Putin
Mark my words, the West are gonna stick their size ten boot in
No-one here has fallen for your good-for-nothing plan
So pop your pacifier in and get back in your pram
Heed the world, the Bulldog and the mighty Uncle Sam
We’ve seen through your bravado, it’s all arrogance and sham
You brag about your weaponry to stifle our rebukes
But you won’t get your way by simply mentioning your nukes
For that's some twisted logic just to get what you desire
When if you blow the place apart and set its bones on fire
The only prize that you will win, as far as I can see
Is a massive crater where your hopes once used to be
There’s bullets with your name on, any one could leave you dead
Should a sniper plant one in the middle of your head
Perhaps a comrade soon will smear your door knob in the night
But read my lips you cretin, it ain’t gonna be Marmite
There is another option that you could attempt of course
Which is whipping off your shirt and then cavorting on a horse
You tried that once before and looked a proper numpty then
I have to say you’re looking like a numpty once again
the list is a thing that broke my heart
it tore me and my friends apart
ranking us was so demeaning
you didn’t even have a reason
you didn’t even think about it
the classroom i just walked right out of it
here i was giving you a second chance
now we’re locked in a death dance
the tangos not one that i like
so listen to the words i write:
i would never say it to your face
but this is just a big disgrace
your such a good person then
you watch them make a list again
so i’ll say it once and i’ll say it loud
you sit there crying i sit here proud
proud it didn’t get to my head
or else i might as well be dead
cross me once that’s okay
make a list i feel betrayed
lied to me about my place
i want to slap your satisfied face
people want me to forgive and forget
but i don’t want to do that yet
forgiving means you get to win
and this goes on and on again
you think that you can relate
so read my lips,
checkmate.
Kisses kisses, Christmas wishes…
Underneath the mistletoe,
Kiss me high, kiss me low;
Read my lips with your fingertips…
Dip me in wine as we combine,
Show me yours, I’ll show you mine…
In the back seat of Santa’s sleigh,
Let’s enjoy the festive foreplay.

Kissing Contest
Sponsored by: Bobby May
((((Happy!~Holidays! Everyone!))))
N/A... forgot to enter contest...duh!
Tippecanoe and Winnie the Poo
I like Ike on a motorbike
It's the Economy, Cupid
Read My Lips, No Teacher's Strike
Let's Make America Unequal Again
All the way with Medicaid
A New Deal, A Fart and a Squeal
It's Morning Again, the GOP Way
Nixon and Lodge, the issues they dodged
Goldwater and Miller, a ticket-killer
McCain and Palin, set folks to wailing
Bush and Cheney, a pair of zanies
Nixon and Agnew, a pair straight from the zoo
Mondale and Ferraro, couldn't have beaten Zorro
Dole and Kemp, wouldn't legalize hemp
Clinton and Gore, we couldn't stand anymore...
In 2020, what slogan will be number one
Something like Bernie's: Vote For Me -- No Mo Fun
Mr. Brenun Lays Pro--
boscis, a belly flop, said:
"No tax read my lips"
no one could read them at all
coz, both mantled by his nose!
Do not play with Arabian poetics ;)
books feel no pain
though tattered and torn.
not pricked with voodoo precision,
chiseled at the gums.
my upturned smile borrows misery.
I can not turn the pages.
the patrons read my lips
"woe be gone"
Finding out how much you loved me,
Opened up my heart to a
Reality that unconditional love really
Exists. You were really ready to
Volunteer to offer a kidney to me,
Even when we only met once.
Racing against time,
I decided to walk the Isle with you,
Not getting my stare off you. A trip in a
Yacht in every summer,
On your birthday, I would sacrifice
Unconditionally.
Read my lips, as
Every word, as warm as the
Yellow sun, drift from my lips, as your
Eyes assure me that in every
Season, you will be with me.

Can you read my lips?
My Sweet, keep it simple, still.
Can you read my arms?
To hold you, I’m going six feet under the ground.
Can you read my mind?
My girl- title is a lot for you,now the train is gone.
Can you read my hand?
So much for you are my tiniest finger, pointer and thumb.
Can you read and feel my heart?
From E to Y, for you it jumps and pumps.
Can you hear and feel me?
Satellite isn’t ahead of my fervor mental telepathy.
Can you really hear me?
If everything in me is mute on this Valentines Day?
If I’m mute and you’re blind,
Touch me, feel all my codes and you’ll find.
Sweetheart, have a Very Happy Valentines
I’m all yours today ‘til the end of time.

to be mind
tome ne kind
read my lips
as I sip
these or my dips sign
to make a started
this is the
WAY TO MY HEART
Well you will not hurt me now anymore
You will not make me cry over you again
I ain't your ***** no more read my lips
When I say that this is the end I mean
This is the end and I'm out the door now
Like I should have been way, way back when
Don't you know you put me through hell?
These past few years so just like a ghost
Watch me just disappear
It's Time for a Change and I have no
Fear Well it's Time for a Change and
So I'm gone, goodbye, I’m outta here!
Now you'll never make me swallow my
Pride like all those times before, you
Lying s.o.b. I just can't take it anymore
I just hope you can find someone who
Will put up with your ********, it’ll take
Someone pretty desperate but who cares
Now that I ain't got nothing to do with
The drama anymore
Don't you know you put me through hell?
These past few years so just like a ghost
Just watch me, just watch me disappear!
It's Time for a Change and I have no
Fear Well it's Time for a Change and
So I'm gone, goodbye, I’m outta here
I'm outta here!
You are taking it out
We are playing it loud
Place yourself to work well
You want to go but you haven't hear the bell
Check me when am not there
Move me when am in readiness to dare
Kill my words but stay with my vibes
Whipping this ones like a long strike
Love leads but hatred could not not stay
Hate the movement and not the delay
War for peace and peace for all
Read my lips and pick my call
Free to stay but you want to move
Bills to pay now they deal with shoes
Zones to zones if you will yo role
Pray we meet at the top not at slave stole
When am here,you want to get it
And you free your mind to stay fit
I’m bleeding from the outside in
like a cup I’m filled to the brim
but I’m not bleeding blood, I’m bleeding gasoline
just so I can light a fire inside of me
my eyes are closed, I’m breathing heavily
lost inside, I’m paralyzed, am I ready
read my lips these will be my last words
they’ll be tattooed on your heart as third degree burns
leave the room, make sure you lock the door
I don’t want you to see me like this anymore
turn the heat up and walk away
write down every last word you've heard me say
“he who is drowned, is not bothered by the rain.”
Bellowed the last lamb the wolf hath slain
“The lamb, the hero.” the wolf cried to god
and etched the lamb’s final words into a heart of sod
