Sound just like Hebrew spor keves !

Living in the Cenozoic era
Broken down for Holocene

Steadfast, serving God --

Regal owl knew more than most about steampunk and time.
He kept his eye on the prize, understanding priorities more than most.
Is that a Latin tire he stands on, asks a Coplay performer sublime.
Looks more like Hebrew, I said, with a nick of a superior boast....

Leaves falling,
 dancing in the air...
 They are unplugged feathers,
 they are sad tears
 floating... they seem !
     But in fact,
     are divine deeds
      to transform
       to renew life...
        seasons...
         ahavah...!


   PS: Ahavah means love in hebrew...

I am Christian,
my brethren are Jewish,
come, gather all,
a time of mitzvahs.

Lift up praise to God,

Jewish and Christian,

(Before Spellcheck)

After arguing fouls or fowls
Some Hebrew scribes throw in their towels
The Hebrew God growls,
"Forget the damn vowels!*
You'll know if you're right in your bowels!"

Life Is A Brothel


Life is a brothel she says
Zipping ten centimetres up the crotch of her
Diesel jeans

How many jobs do you have to take to remove your nose
from the rotten-egg stench;  how many chances do you have to give
the adjustable lighting
to sweep away for you the connections
to breath-gaps?

O, I love to attend a Cohen family simcha**
      That is where I really love to be-e-e!

    For when you're at a Cohen family simcha,
      You are always treated roy-al-ly!


**A simcha is Hebrew or Yiddish for a happy event, such as a wedding. 

                  The ditty above is to be sung to the tune of
                    "The Oscar Mayer Wiener Whistle Song"...
