Shrinks attempted to fix mind flaws
They gorged on cocaine
But primitive brain
Has failed to achieve sacred pause...

Every violation of Godly law
Violence attending resistance
Others have failed
Let us succeed
Tyranical rule must be defeated...

Have you ever seen
Ghosts all dressed for a function
Some elegant dance
Which they will be attending
A scary Halloween whirl

As aliens who come from out there
All our heads are the size of a pear
Most consider us sane
Despite a tiny brain
Attending a conference, we swear...

Accepting the zeitgeist
Adapting to challenges
Avoiding all dangers
Amusing with the mate
Attending the young ones
Aspiring to fly far…
Ah! What an existence!...

Tried every diet he could to get slim
   He even stopped eating
   Attending the meetings
Of: "Diet? Tried It ~ Just Hack Off a Limb"...

present, in situ
replying, being, attending
place, existence; thither, distant
pointing, waiting, searching
yon, yonder

"You Need Help!" they say to me constantly,
and so I agree to begin attending therapy,
but I never go. I have given up.
I know that there's no cure or treatment 
for my kind of "messed up"....

To so distance myself
From its loud rumour
Whiney, needy, the earth o'er
Attending each care
Unless that soul, at peace
Its own skies re-mount
Summer-time's "off into the blue"
Escapes go nowhere....

Milk on bed and milk when dead.
Why sulk all along?

She
dreams of
a soldier
back from battle
having purchased peace with strength and valor
attending now to his long missed maiden
a wedding and

now to

boris broke the rules
attending garden parties
whilst WE stayed at home

He covers his back
rules are now to be relaxed
voters are not fools!

I am cynical
of politicians actions
If the truth be told

Kenny's retiring, no more touring for him
Perhaps I could take his place, still got vigor and vim
No one would know
Attending a show
Absolute millions from this charade I could skim

There once was a banker from Britain

Who sat on a snake and was bitten

    But his assets were apprised

    To have quadrupled in size

While attending nurses were smitten!

I must be nutty as a fruitcake
      for attending my sister's
         'pre-marital wake'

   Sis likened marriage to 'slow death'
   She didn't want to run out of breath

      So I served her Arsenic 'n Rum in her steak...

In the darkness of the night
without a word
skin to skin
blood to blood
attending the wounds cause by the others

There was no need to explain nor justify
Tenderness and loneliness
weaving together
through the night
without a word...

Life is beautiful but so fragile, just like a butterfly's delicate wings

Vast November sky,
Strikes the senses, everyone.
Goose-pimples, sight, hearing, soul.
Howling windswept dark,
Shivers the bone, soaking wet.
Soggy ground I want to eat.
Waxing moon presides,
With attending star in sync.
Winters clouds inspire....

what we have heard inferred
this was the word which occurred
reassured could be cured

(with terror endured)
(while on trip we toured)
(while attending herd)
(mentioned by a bird)
(completely absurd)
(being a numb skull)
(said by when cat purred)...

According to my knowledge,
it's bad to take porridge
near the old bridge,
and the dirty fridge.
At my age,
i have to be in marriage,
and leading the village
but not attending college.
Me and Kate
we need to make a gate
to protect the jet.
It's funny!...
