And the new world struggles for birth,
It is then survival in the jungle,
The monstrous tussle,
Just for the fittest!

flocks of geese flying
remind of the life cycle
survival of the fittest
arrowheads pointing
southward in a migration
birds wiser than we, you see.

'THINKING OUT LOUD'

If I could live by the courage of my convictions,
only the fittest would survive.

where flowers once whispered
fainted petals lie forlorn
survival of the fittest
stand alone to mourn

uncovered soil shivering with chills
once gardens, now have lost their shading
a floral cemetery within one
whispers are now fading...

If he was the provost of a prison
He would open all of the cells
Let the prisoners decide among themselves
Who would live and who would die
They would dance into the yard
Laughing and carousing
Except for the small ones
Survival of the fittest
So aren’t you glad
he is not the provost of a prison?...

Sitting on the clouds
I feel like flying
Above strawberry fields
I feel like crying

Some feelings I got
Something big is about to happen
Blowin over the heirs 
Just to get to the kickoff

Like a magician
Flipin cards 
Disappearing when the fields come
Everybody knows

This is survival of the fittest...

Is it or not

that the fittest make it

the weak may not

survival depends

on attitude

frame of mind

positivity

you come like

a tornado in

my face but

I can see through

the destruction

now it's position

that matters

status you say

 I say it is

a case of

push and shove

trying to dominate

time will sort it....

While counting down darn dire days 
In distant yet heartfelt embrace,
Let’s play at home like days of old 
For front line courage to unfold.
From this pandemic novel  turn 
We shall withstand and we shall learn -
Fittest is fine but last not least, 
The smartest ones shall best the beast.

Working Out


Decades ago
presidential elections were
every four years

Rest between sets
quiet days ward off
carabolic states

Now, the madness starts
on the first 
Wednesday of November

Taper before the race
hydrate and carbo load
stretch and relax

Newscasters make predictions
hours after inauguration
“who is the fittest?”...
