Let's play with new things, catching a new approach,
I am happy with bringing new things into the next epoch,
Constructing a method by defining each step as its own coach,
Sitting on its own as a key step because I am doing research.
I am an inventor, I am a researcher, I am a philosopher, I am an innovator,
Converting the knowledge from one to another because I am a converter,
I set the goal to reach the final destination and continue as a path setter,
Moving with no mistakes, no fear, with belief in myself because I am a creator.
He’s Irish not Scottish or British
You forget, he’ll get ornery and skittish
He’ll point to his pelt
Start swearing in Celt
With a splash of some Gaelic and Yiddish
It is better,
In a letter,
To your mind unfetter:
Your claims of being a pace-setter,
And a neglected go-getter.
Better in a letter,
Your tears make wetter,
A former switch with a latter,
The slimmer present as the fatter;
Better in a letter,
To disclose that one is a waiter,
And to another his hater:
Better in a letter.
(to a blues riff)
You're a blood red girl
You're a blood red girl
You're a blood red girl, you're a woodshed girl,
You're a good good girl.
You're a good good girl
You're a good good girl
You're a blood red girl, you're a woodshed girl
You're a good good girl.
You're a bloodshed girl
You're a bloodshed girl
You're a spit-curl girl, roller derby girl
You're a good good girl.

Lord Jesus
Saying
To
The crowd
That those who
Have never sinned
Stone her first
Jesus
Gave
A new
Law of love
That had
Set
A new

Pace Setter
young dog tugging fore
suddenly old dragging aft;
any age, they set pace.
Poem suddenly came to me while walking my 11-year old lab/dane X (labadane) and remembering how he used to pull me along.
Don't be angry and drowned in sad
Cos no one meant to be led
Find your path and grip your grid
Cos everyone meant to LEAD
Don't be happy yet satisfied
You haven't done well if it just 'alright'
Be the best for yourself
You're the SETTER no one else!
I awoke this morning groggy,
breath a little tart.
To my left a young beauty,
what a great start.
I step off my bed,
slip sandals on my feet.
to the bathroom I head,
to wash my face and brush my teeth.
I opened the door
to a pleasant surprise.
there she stood gleaming,
with a look of passion in her eyes.
I pulled her close,
until we were face to face.
My hands tickle her lower back,
above her crack,
we're immersed in loves embrace..
This picture perfect moment
seemed infinite.
Like we were swimming with the stars,
playing with the constellations,
a lovers picnic on Mars.
