Must Mention Retention at Convention
must have to mention
would not be much retention
in crazy convention
James Thesarious Horn
Sharpened senses,beyond reason
convention or tradition.Extraordinary
in the spectacular.Turbulence tamed
the arbitary becomes evident.
A limerick-composing old man
Devised a most devious plan.
Rejecting convention,
I fear I must mention,
He fried all his verse in a pan.
Ambert Emily Dickinson a spinster
her short verse upon us did confer
Without titles she did versify
just one of the convention she does defy
You tantalize senses
Breaking down defenses
You sting to attention
Breaking all convention
Caution this spice of life
She will not make a wife
a longed for
caesura from
convention,
life en pause
on hold,
an open ended
flight from
reality..
a still point
I Must Mention
Things I must mention;
Dissension and division,
Cause apprehension.
Is an extension,
Of my mental retention,
At my convention.
Jim Horn
Thoughts pink with suspicion
Hearts skipping beats like a percussion
The time stopped, lost in contemplation
Confusion, convention, condensation.

WIT
Wit works better than hits
Act with sure intention
Bits find some awkward fit
Tact strains odd convention

Trump Big Bone of Contention
Trump was big bone of contention;
Smart Aleck at political convention;
Much disdain;
Constant pain;
In ranks raised so much dissension.

Lifting heavy stuff was not my intention
To save a few bucks I'm puffing like an engine
To keep the price down
So I can buy a new gown
To wear at my company's next convention
Lucretia Mott
The meeker sex, she was not!
At the convention in Seneca Falls
Showed men aren't the only ones with balls!

Alternately marveling
and weeping
at what’s occurred
in my country
An assassin’s bullet
now a bloodless coup
in a span of eight days
~ a convention too
Sparkles of faerie wings flit past the pink tulips
Sweeping and swerving, frisky faerie flips
Daffodil is jealous of this marvelous mythical attention
Pokes fun at floral’s spring gardening convention
Blue
Divine
Shine
Madonna and Child
Suffocate the Papal decreed
Sowed the seeds
Indoctrinated godly status
Art distorted the power courted
For Church convention
Hidden shackled
Never to tackle
In Ranks Did Discover Dissension
While mumbling about then did mention,
Ended up going to a Trump convention;
Many had loitered;
Then reconnoitered;
In ranks we did discover much dissension.

Corrupt Political Convention
We had gone to a corrupt political convention;
Like a moron many things they did mention;
To us occurred,
Were all absurd;
We left it with a great deal of apprehension.

Lifting heavy stuff was not my intention
To save a few bucks I'm puffing like an engine
To keep the price down
So I can buy a new gown

Epigram
Beware of tradition it can be harmful and Intolerant
Hateful of those who do not share your way of life
New ideas will be met with scorn old ways was best.
Not true, don`t let convention steal your freedom
A glance of the eye,its gaze looking
but not seeing expressions on the
inside.Missing the sense of calm
surrounding the radiant soul,clear
and bright liberated from convention.
