It's starting to give me the blues
This weight that I'm needing to lose
My belly's so fat
It's Mortal Kombat
To bend over and tie my shoes!...

"Point your hands toward water".

She pushes me from behind.

"There! now you can dive" she says....

and met a neighbor while she said "Hey,"
I watched her bend over
to pet her dog "Rover"...
what a darn lucky dog I must say!...

After which I needed a Psychologist

Pa could not bend over to the stove like he should
The wood is too heavy for Ma is understood 
To ease this plight
And make it right
Mama bent over after Papa got wood!...

Bow your head down Aries . 
Bend over.
Not out weakness,
Because  of love of yours.
 
Emphasize defiance
By containing an unbearable burden,
Not comprehended by anyone yet....

A stitch in time saves nine
But a stitch in your side ain't fine
Hurts like hell
Bad words you expell
Bend over in pain while guzzling wine

Need a damn pick-me-up, like a whole new me
Where I'm actually mobile before a quarter of three
Still can feed myself
And things don't swell
When I bend over, I swear and fart foul air...

Recently when I bend over, I make a loud noise
Stuff that's not nailed down sure gets destroyed
Kinda private but hey
It's really free that way
My attitude towards life is I'm still a wee boy...

At my age, I make a noise when I bend over
It's the law but quite embarrassing, even for Rover
He barks when he farts
Pretends it's from another yard 
Us humans shift our eyes, pretend we're not the owner...

Males of the huge gray kangaroos,
So excitable early in the spring.
Do not  bend over to them, or, in a blink,
You will be sexually abused.

My friend, who did not listen my advice,
Was badly hurt for it! Not ones, but twice!...

Never mind my stare,
When yearning I fall.
I am here drowning in your bar.
Watching you sipping cola,
Can you see me,
If you can.

There you bend over,
Could you for me,
You are sipping again,
Could you me?
You may not be you.

You see things at the rest home
you don’t expect to see.
New veteran in his Korea cap is 
whipping everyone else in pool.

He never has to bend over 
and aim before he shoots.
He strokes it from his wheelchair
then rolls to his next shot.

Small men do exist
Maybe it’s their egos
Maybe it’s their es
Either way they do not care
Attacking innocent people
Killing women and babies
Bombing without sight
They want the world to bend over
Accept them as a god
But everyone knows they are no gods
Just self-important jokes

Standing at the edge
Fear~pain~or fun~fear~pain
Big brown fearful eyes
Begging help me...

So I help her down onto the floor
Picking up her chew stick
Comes to me again
Big brown sad eyes help me

Understanding her agony
Bend over lift her up
Now she's in her comfort zone
Chewing away on her bone
Sitting next to the patsy...

Days come and go
Some stand high, others bend over and bow
No need to cry or shout
If you feel pain, it is no doubt
Night will sneak in
Full of pleasure or sadness and sin
It doesn’t matter
To quench thirst you need water
Time will turn around
May hug, kiss you or pound
Life is a ball on a hill
Ready to roll down, hard to stay still...

If I was any more flexible
I could bend over backwards
and touch the top of my head on the ground

If I was any more flexible
You could paint me green
and call me Gumby

If I was any more flexible
We could roll me up 
And bounce me

If I was any more flexible
I would ooze into your wallboards
And watch your every action...

Willows bend over a celadon lake, 
                              Like village women in dawn’s stealthy light, 
                                Rinsing their hair ere the daffodils wake, 
                             And birds crochet the air with chorus bright, 
                             ‘Neath a lone cloud turning gossamer white....

bend over  bare breasts and pink nose
the sun's silhouette fades where you lie
shadows retreat, wings rise to the sky
dark hills recoil while your hair lashes fly

shrouded in black and turning plumb
cherub's encircle the abyss of lost souls
in the eaves,  deliverance rides an Aphrodite beast
her blood brings salvation to the tormented and weak...

He hates the sessions
The therapist
Desperately trying
To have him conform
To the accepted
Societal mold
Yet
He chose his path
A long time ago
Now
They deem him 
Broken
Yet
Time and again
He has to bend over
Betray logic
To accommodate 
Now
The result is an
Hairline crack
He can feel 
The pressure
Building up

She has pink shoes.
Little pink shoes.
See? How she can dance
     and twirl? Jump so high,
     much higher than her other shoes?
They are so easy too,
     no laces or velcro NO!
No need to bend over,
     just step right in
She's a princess, Elsa
Of Course!
Not Anna, ELSA!
With little pink shoes.

It has been a long time since
I have been away from you
and tonight, I miss your soft-glowing
presence, and the serenading shadows 
conducting the silky symphony of
your peeling clothes. I miss
your reassuring steps, as you
approach the bed, and the gentle sagging
of the mattress as you press down
to bend over to kiss my cheek
as I fall into a blissful sleep....

Just a number 
My age is just a number right ? 
So what are all these changes ? 
Sleep seems to come so soon at night. 
My eyes don’t see as clearly.  
Speak louder , I can’t hear you deary!
My back hurts when I bend over ,
It seems like I move much slower.  
And all these things I used to remember ,
Now it seems like I can’t get it together ! 
But age is just a number ....
