Sit around and do nothing all day
Alternatively watch the rugby played
Take the wife shopping and pay
Up to the chippy no cooking today
Ring the lads for a pint, wey hey
Drink, drink all your troubles away
Abuse the dart team in their game
Yep thats the way to spend a Saturday
You said you dodged a bullet.
If I was the bullet,
Then I shot myself.
And barely grazed you.
If I was the bullet
Then I killed myself.
And left you with a scar.
Alternatively,
If I am the bullet,
Then I shot myself.
And you got hurt trying
To intercept pain that was not
Yours to take.
Woodrow Wilson, back then a progressive
Now considered a wholesale regressive ~
Just think, Hilary / DJT *
What will you soon be ~
Deplorable compulsive-obsessive
*If Republican, read 'Hilary'
If Democrat, read 'DJT'
Alternatively, read 'JRB,' -- (Joseh Robinette Biden)

Literal Translation
Fu-ru (old) i-ke (pond) ya,
ka-wa-zu (frog) to-bi-ko-mu (jumping into)
mi-zu (water) no o-to (sound)

He whom comes' with sin
Alternatively and without reason'
Corrupts' the absent
Person of his being, and
Neither does' his gratitude
Gain prosperity, It can only
Sprout envy
And dissatisfaction of
That trail which stridulates'
Through-out the annul'
Of-
Man and his generational
Quest to become insolent
This is man's last basting
GF
Two sets of three words each
Each sets forces in motion
Mighty as mountains, vast as the ocean
The first set, "I give up"
All momentum it quells
The future, disrupts
The other, "I love you"
Walks you out on a limb
Your destiny magical; alternatively, grim
Utter these three words with the utmost care
Never with a wing; always with a prayer
Rodeheaver Name Meaning topographic name from Middle Low German roden, Middle High German roten ‘to clear’ + Middle High German hou ‘assart’, ‘area of forest assigned for clearing’. Alternatively, the second element may be an agent derivative of Middle High German houwen ‘to chop or cut down’, in which case the name is of occupational origin.
Interesting.

Form:
Oh, meaty mothballs!
as opposed to mothy meatballs
Alternatively - slobbering sloth-balls!
instead of sloppy moth-calls
Stupid refrigerator!
as opposed to dumb incinerator
Alternatively - dirty toenail taster!
instead of wanton whiskey-waster
It's the start of a brand-new year
Let's raise glasses and expectations
And while we're at it
~ improve imprecations!

Please advertise your thoughts right here,
Make me savor your every word,
I sweat behaviors of a peer;
Your slogan slashes like a sword.
I bend for brands to kick my pocket,
Over again shares go up and down.
I will hit labels in the socket,
But the other eyes just buy and frown.
Why choose alternatively between two,
When choice's paradox is in your face?
The rows seem endless when you're going through,
Head-turns, carts, retail sounds...uneven pace...
