Blandishments eroded invaluable necessary viz life savings of mine videre licet alms

Blandishments eroded invaluable necessary viz life savings of mine videre licet alms

initially crafted June twenty fifth
two thousand twenty four
affecting me to utter "oy a broch"
(pronounced ah-BROOKH)
before I cast accursed blatant spells
outright upon the head of mountebank,
whose shrewd and cunning deception
bled me dry as a sun bleached bone,
whereby self denigration and imploration
regarding immediate obliteration
of "nest egg"

Oh not again

Moans, sleep deprivation,
Groans across our great nation.
Blame all dumb inventors, 
Droughts, floods, some mentors!
We'll vanish on timely wings,
Faults saving daylight brings!

Argh the bane of daylight savings time November 3rd 2024

Argh... the bane of daylight savings time – November 3rd 2024

Hour hands clock back
sixty minutes of Autumn
round about same of month
every year, what a bummer,
an inconvenient truth
diverged from this chum
purposelessly manipulating
hold over yesteryear doth drum
sensation of jet lag
(an inconvenient truth

with earth in the balance)
as if flying within time machine
at warp speed from
this station, where
bumpy ride

Savings

I wish there was a way.
I could save some money today.
By not buying that shirt.
But that would make me hurt. 
I could save the money like a fool. 
Or buy that scarf that would make me look cool.
I wish there was a way. 
To go through the day. 
Ignoring coffee shops, and stores. 
Those keychains

Ides of March

Named for the God of War but trickster is your nature. Each year you bring the prospect of spring. Yet your deceit hides that promise under your cloak of white. I should know better, but you understand how much I need to believe your promises. Beware the Ides of March. Julius did not heed the

Daylight Savings Time Ends – November 5th 2023 means...

discombobulated, harried, and lobotomized
state of body, mind, and spirit triage.

Onset of dark shadows signalling edge of night
occurs earlier as the world turns  
beckoning, hinting, robbing passage 
regarding days of our lives, 
where the young and the restless,
plus the bold and the beautiful 
exhibit variations on a

Daylight Savings and Loan

We haven’t gained much interest yet
Save an extra hour of light
Which isn’t bad, but you can bet
It came right out of our nights

Come next statement there’ll be fees
And I’m sure that they’ll be lofty
We’ll pay back that hour, guaranteed
Boy, is daylight savings costly.

Premium MemberThe Quest For Savings

A customer wandered into the post office fair,
Seeking to send a package with the utmost care.
Billy, a coworker with a smile so bright
Welcomed her presence, ready for the fight.

"Two-day shipping will cost $10.95," he proclaimed.
"To get it there by Friday, as we've claimed."
The customer, frugal and wise,
Sought a way to save a few extra dimes.

"The

It was the second morning of “daylight savings time,” and the change was noticeable.

My BF Peter has a doctorate in applied physics, he's an expert, so I asked him, “How do they move the sun?”

He gave me one of his patented, blank looks, “What, who moves the sun?” He answered.

“Well, yes,” I said, “I suppose

Daylight Savings Time 2023...

in Pennsylvania will begin at 2:00 AM 
on Sunday, March twelfth
and moost likely will impact
min-née-ute effect on me
a run of the mill on the Floss
amazingly gracefully aging
long haired pencil necked geek,
who welcomes increased photons.

Just moments ago, a dawning realization
arose within this sol son begat
from ma late mother

The ides of March are upon us,
With spring to follow closely in step.
    As we begin to welcome St. Patty,
    And all those Easter eggs lie ready to prep.

    Seen and heard is the madness of basketball,
    Collegiate craziness to never end.

Premium MemberDaylight Savings

I wonder if the sun realizes
it is getting up early next week?
Will the stars shout:
“Hey!!!  Turn off the light.”,
the moon sulk in a corner?
Will it drive the bats….
You know….”batty”?
I heard a rumor
The “Shadow and Shade Unions”
are laying off.
The sparrows think it’s hilarious
as they can’t tell time,
The roosters may need a snooze button.
I just want
