A thorny story
I share a tree with a story to tell: We were out for a walk round Dufton Pike when this straggly hawthorn conveyed its spell, holding my gaze on our afternoon hike. A closer study showed not one but two thorns twisted, contorted in a struggle, their limbs, their joints entwined and tangled through a wrestling of arms that writhe and...

The Arms of Prize Fighters
The arms prize fighters swing While in watched boxing ring Riches speedily bring And Buccaneer make king... The arms prize fighters swing In banks swell the prized thing Six figures the dollar, In finance now taller! Angels but without wings And I'd swear not one sings... The arms prize fighters swing Other arms put in sling. From it they expect a link And hard they swing them not...

Some Polticians
Men who hulking thugs lobby, Now and then their hobby To winning rivals clobber, Hitting them until they slobber; Their tunes for the piper A much worse viper, Venom as good a wiper As enemy- silencing sniper. Old owners of power Mythical the eleventh hour Their only message for The Youth: A not- yet- your- time hurting truth....

Premium Member Rivals To Consider
If I had more time, I might have spent it more wisely. Until I return to my heels and the nothingness timely  I was guided by those who had gone before me.  I can view my way of hiding as pacing steadily. This method will be sought by my fellow adversary. They were sure they didn't have to start over...

Staff of Rivals Under Lincoln
After reading Team of Rivals under Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin Am sure that I must be correct, History had tremendous effect; Not frightened, And enlightened, No matter what subject I select. Jim Horn There is nothing like a loud crowd, Who really think they are endowed; My intuition, A politician That has head high in the cloud. Jim Horn Some things politicians think are easy, Especially when they are...

Clash of the Rivals
West Virginia was led by a Heisman contender, They would never let an unranked team under their skin, Never thought they would be forced to surrender, They thought they had it in the bag, just another win. The Panthers listened to LeSean McCoy, Never expecting to beat their rival team, West Virginia thought they would have the joy, Have the key to...
