Dont Judge a Book By Its Cover
I look i lack,
Tiny titanic,
Complicated simple,
Just the way i roll up,
Gives you
No clue of me.
Dont judge me by my cover,
Look in and discover....

Something Smells
Crap smells really bad no matter the shape or the color
Maybe black, brown, white, yellow, a woman or a feller
Don’t judge a book by it’s cover when you are the smeller...

Anyone Clever Enough 2 Answer These Throwing Question
When they throw the Book at you ?

Do you get to keep it ?

And when they throw away the Key ?

Do they keep the Spare 1 ?

Just incase to save face ?

The lock opened from the inside ?

Or they misjudged the book by it's cover ?...

Footnotes of Pain
A book with no cover,
  a man with no name

Vowels dormant and muted,
  as consonants reign

A plot with no purpose,
  an ending refrained

Its message in conflict
   —with footnotes of pain

 
(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2015)...

In Spades
Though he looked mean Pookie-Lou was okay, 
Deemed bookie by, Sookie-Sue things looked grave….
Thought untrue was Pookie-Lou
Alas, the tale was not true,
In truth, Pookie-Lou just loved to play spades….

Never Judge a Book By Its Cover
We make comment on strangers 
to become unnecessarily suspicious 
Until our hearts is filled with hatred
We are relentlessly obnoxious

Why oh why do we judge
God forgive us for having a grudge 
If only we could see whats in their hearts
our hearts would melt with singing their praises...

Equal
why must we all do harm to each other?
we're we not created equal?
who is one to judge another?
no one is perfect
skin color hair color the clothes we wear
why must this matter?
you can't judge a book by its cover
we all need to look deep down
look inside to see what each of us has
we are all special in God's eyes
isn't he the only one who should matter?...

Dating For the Cynical
Some may call me cynical
But some might say clinical
But one thing is for granted
My feet are always planted

Dating is a funny old game
My love life set aflame
Judging people on appearance
Personalities are an interference

Judging a book buy its cover
Makes it hard to discover
The real person behind the photo
A person hidden in the shadow

That Was My Sin
It was to love deeply and unconditionally
It was not to compromise my well being
It was to regard any human being with fairness and equality

Never judge a book by its cover
Never make a promise you cannot keep
Never underestimate your enemies
Never anticipate your heart desires

It was to stand up for those I cherished
It was to fight for what I believed in
It was to embrace my humanity...

Premium Member What If
She was perfect, he was amazing, but mama said don’t judge a book by its cover because everyone has a few bad chapters

And dad always told me no one is perfect so why picture standards that can’t be met

So, I told myself always be realistic because feelings deserve to be held gently

What if everyone thought this way what would love look like today?

p.s. don’t let expectations blind you…...

Don'T Buy a Book For It's Cover
Gorgeous is as gorgeous does
but some times gorgeous cant be seen
she  can paint on her face 
she can draw on a smile
but gorgeous can't always be seen
she may not appear on vogue's front cover
or purr down an expensive catwalk
have friends who are famous  and millions to spend
but it's plain to see shes gorgeous inside
dont buy a book for it's cover 
buy it for the story inside.
As gorgeous can't always be seen...

I seldom take a book with me
more reading entertainment
watching others turn their
pages, body-language a literary
giveaway

the positioning of their heads
how torsos are tilted right or
left, perhaps Representative of 
one's politics – foreign occupation 
by written words
of another

one can't tell a book by its cover

but a whole lot revealed by the
measure of pages read...lack of
conversation
and how eyes
avert.......

Closure
Closure



Inner calm, peace,
Accepting of situations that cannot change.
A sense of finality,
Rising above the ignorance.

Disappointment channelled positively,
I appreciate the little things.
Coming to terms with difference,
The chapter has now ended.

Severing ties that bind disorder,
Life teaches great lessons.
Don't ever judge a book by its cover,
Be wiser, accepting, tolerant.

 I put down my pen...life goes on....

Don'T Judge a Book By Its Cover
Don't judge a book by it's cover

The meaning of this is people are different than one another,

You can't assume by looking at a person who or what they are

What lies underneath is what takes them far,

Now what is on the outside doesn't count

But, what is on the inside is the true amount,

Of what someone or something is worth

Because everyone or everything has meaning that is on this earth.

Looking For a Few Good Books
Browsing the library
It’s my favorite thing to do 

Breathing in the air of books and paper 

Picking up a book and examining the book from the cover to the back

Staring at title after title 

All I’m doing is looking for a few good books to read

And soon enough in the mystery section I end up with mystery book after mystery book to devour 

All I’m doing is looking for a few good books at the library to devour to my hearts content...

The Seasonal Love
My eye on her case
 i gave the verdict she was hot
her love would keep me warm for life i thought
but never judge a book by its cover that i was taught

Now she is gone i guess that was summer love
am all alone freezing in loneliness
i will call this winter break because
a mere thought of her sends a could shiver down my spine

let me break the ice am over her
and am still a cool guy
am jumping up and down in jubilation
and i will call this spring time...

Premium Member Beauty Book
Beauty is like the cover of a book
that's pleasing to the eye
but doesn't always revile 
the real person inside
We tend to asome
that beauty defines health and good
without looking deeper
beauty is often misunderstood
Those less fortunate
are often judged
and portrayed as villains
and far from good.

Beauty can be ugly
and ugly can be beautiful
it's just a case of being wise
and you may discover
and not simply
judging a book by it's cover.

Never Judge the Book By Its Cover
They thought they knew me
Only to find out
I am not what they thought I was
They thought they saw me
Only to find out
I am not what they saw

Lend me a ear
I will tell you about my life
I will tell the world what my life is all about
I will show you my life
Close the mouth
And hear my roar

They thought imitating me will solve their problems
Only to find out
I am not their solution
They thought hurting me will make me disappear
Only to find out
I am living my life...

Don'T Judge a Book By It's Cover
When you look at my skin tone
Don't categorize me
When you see what i wear
Don't dare label me
You don't know me
You just see my outside
I may be the sweetest person alive
Your assumptions are therefore unjustified
I may be the best friend you'll ever have
I may be that dream love if you chance
Instead of judging me by my looks
Misjudging me from first glance
Don't judge me by what you read
Or by what you see on television
Take time to get to know me
And form your own first hand decision...

Don'T Judge a Book By Its Cover
Many people think that every mentally ill person is dangerous but that's not true.
If you were mentally ill, you wouldn't want people to think that about you.
Don't judge a book by its cover, it's not fair to the mentally ill.
Just because a person has schizophrenia or bipolar disease, it doesn't mean 
that he or she will kill.
The next time you meet a mentally ill person, please don't be scared.
Treat us like you would treat anyone else, it's not right to judge the mentally 
impaired....
