Short Cut To The Chase Poems

I may seem simply just a slob,
But at least I always comb my bob....

Madness etched on his face
Tin Man cut short the chase
And with the axe he proudly flaunted
Claimed the heart he always wanted...

Barren Leaves Coast To Cleave
shallow..
shallow peak
hesitant on a kiss
hero in the mist
chase back the fever with a smile
still to know all the great while
love was king
chase...

Laugh or cry, the sun will yet rise
Oh, why does heart contract
Does not each breath usher surprise
Soul eternal, a fact

Let’s then cut to the chase
Choose open arm embrace
Imbibing divine grace

Fear decry
Laugh or cry

Garishly gold pots of miser's old
Cut out's sold for dime and dollar
Nothing real gave out by the shcholar
God gave out such a roaring 'holler

Follow the heart's treasure
Give truth and love's pleasure
Cut to the chase and simply
Erase the rest, give God your love
And put your life to the test....

The stomach of the sky is rumblin'
and I fear that I'll be consumed;
the oceans are dying, the earth turns to sand,
and I sense the day of my doom.

If we're going to change this we'd better get started
stop making excuses and cut to the chase;
I fear this movie will have a bad ending
if we don't meet our demons face to face....

a thought arises
so strange
it should not be here
but yet it is

examine: how is it different
from any other object
we happen to see
like a bird for example 

let us cut to the chase
is it not ownership assigned
by deluded heart and mind
that causes needless suffering

identity that seeks
shrouded in ignorance 
is it not but dust
immersed in this lucid dream...

As a writer, I embrace,
To help me when I’m way off base,
A pencil with, in proper place,
A pink expunging saving grace.

For up my sleeve, it is the ace
Which helps me more than just a trace.
Yes, I’d be lost if in this space
I was not able to erase.

We pencil users must keep pace
With techno-geeks or face disgrace.
Erasers keep us in the race.
Cut to the chase – I rest my case!...

Cup of Joe
Cut to the chase
Between a rock 
And a hard place
Back to square one
Piece of cake
Dime a dozen
Truth is stranger than fiction 

Cold turkey
Down and out
Down for the count
Down to Earth
Drawing a blank 
Easy as pie
Eat my hat
Go for broke 
Truth is stranger than fiction

Hands down
Happy as a clam
Hard pill to swallow
High and dry
Head over heels
Toe to toe

Truth is stranger than fiction....
