By hook or by crook...

In spite of my charm and extremely good looks
There's times when I can be quite a schnook
When the girlies turn me down
Ends up more than a frown
But still, tend to get my way by hook or by crook...

There was a hot poet called Jan
Who one day developed a plan
By hook or by crook
She’d write a kid’s book
And a lizard love story began

A lizard meets a pretty girl
Their tongues in unison unfurl
On a mossy rock
Their lives interlock
Together in love they now curl





for my so talented friend...

Thoughts an unyielding riot
The past comes bounding
When they’re no longer quiet
The silence is astounding

To honor their greed
By hook and by crook
Never really freed
Of the pieces they took

They reap while you sow
Bruised and in tatters
How the tears flow
When it no longer matters

Indentured by their choices
The wounded still walking
How demanding the voices
When you’re no longer talking...

Traffic jam in the ways of life
crowded noisy groan hazardous
Oh ! mind breathing suffers from suffocation

Busy all are hurry no time
reach the destination by hook or by crook
to get the works done run and run
 
To avail few minutes for few days
to keep happy all the ways
try again and again fun and fun

What is got that's the gain
from giving and taking game
if not not mine no worry and no pain....

Jest with fine fest
Zest warms true quest


Wine works like lines
Fine taste grows mine


Book a sure look
Hook a live crook


Stuff can feel rough
Enough of bluff


Haste follows taste
Waste not the chaste


Daze in dream maze
Craze aligns gaze


Weeds choke fine seed
Feed on deep need


Play well this day
Say how thought slays


Be man set free
See you, see me
