The Enemy Found
Screams to their naked advancement,
fire—the truth to resound

Cannon to their darkest intention,
death—to all enemies found

Love
Be thy

In this sweet

Smile For the Camera
Tom went out one night looking for some fun
he brought with him a water-cannon gun,
wet T-shirts were all the rage
the ladies took center stage...
Tom's cellphone videos were a homerun!...

Shiver Me Timbers
SHIVER ME TIMBERS!

Once a cut-throat and cannon ball dodger
Now a one legged salty old codger
But when ship enters docks he
Will look up an old doxy
And hoist up with a good Jolly Roger...

Dumpers
Dumpers
The gal with the arse cannon
Let’s one rip a right good fart
You can smell it from here
It smells of baked beans
And mushy peas plus cabbage
I wonder what it’s like
When she takes a dump?...

Dead Poets
Their words. 
Like the softest cannon fire. 
Shrapnel finding every mark. 
In blood and brain and bone
and heart. 
Leaving us to bleed
for more. 
Till fire, now silenced
turns to dark.

Out of a Cannon
Like being shot out of a cannon,
I charged out of bed,
Took one look around me,
My spirits, they bled,
Jumped back into bed,
Hoping to sleep,
Another twenty-four years,
Before out of bed I again leap....
