All imported stuff,
  imported life in luxury.
    ostentatious life?

 none of that matters to me
 only my life matters......

Sir Isaac Newton

was thought to be quite highfalutin

Liked caviar, imported tea

and all his foods were gluten-free!

   Once I ate a defective Oreo
   I’d imported from Lower Borneo
       I’d spent too much money
       My stomach felt funny
   Then my 'plumbing' gave it the old heave-ho

I bought a new replacement brain from Amazon
With a lifetime warrantee 
delivered and installed by Amazon technicians  
in your home 
It said on the web site that it was imported 
And I now speak a new language...

Lovely banana for gorgeous Anna 
It is imported, all the way from Ghana 
It tastes nothing but so sweet 
It is sold in every street 
It makes an emblem like a bandana

My scarf’s from Killarney.
My car’s from Japan.
My glasses - from Denmark
(And not on my plan!)

My shoes are from China
(Which was a surprise).
My baking dish - Portugal,
Sweet for the eyes.

Today is Thanksgiving,
America’s day.
Importing it all
Is America’s way....

For you and I, here is a treat.
It is pink millet jelly that is very sweet.
In clear rice paper, it is wrapped to stay.
Put it in your mouth, and it melts away.
It comes with something for each girl and boy
Included with the candy is a little toy.
It is a little something that brings joy.
It is imported from Japan for you and me.
This nice candy is called Botan Ami...

In days of olde
Lords spoke French to their king,
In church,in Latin would sing-
Poets,changing this mould,
Their verses,in English did bring.

Note.Poetry & literature in the 1300's helped to coalesce English into a native,nationwide 
language by rejecting both the secular religious power of the 'colonial' French of the Court 
and 'imported' Latin of the state Chuch...

there is a cat on the beach the hounds reported.
They knew this cat was special, maybe imported.
For the beach was overrun with dogs of every size.
Cats were not welcome here, no big surprise.

Someone should tell her, a yellow lab said.
He took six friends who all ran ahead.
The cat disappeared before they got very near.
She got the message one said, feeling her fear....

I remember how
you'd heat the leche
to make me a cafe con leche.

You'd use that special sock
to strain the grounds
fresh ground!

We'd sit and talk
by the window
watching our "kids" playing
in the back yard.

They'd bark to come in
wanting to share in the aroma
of your special roast
imported from Argentina
just like you!

I miss you, dear.

There’s good tequila imported from Mexico.
To make this drink, that’s the way to go.
We need Triple Sec and juice of a lime.
Put these ingredients in a shaker with ice.
Give it a good shake, and all will look nice.
Salt around the glass’s rim is good all the time.
You will have one of the most popular drinks in America.
Coming up from south of the border, it’s called a “Margarita”.

Amazing the gifts to which God has bestowed
The entirety of our senses about to unfold

Listen close and you will hear
Without the assistance of a trained ear

Magic brewing like an imported keg
You can feel yourself standing on one leg

Drunk with balance and gentle care
And the gifts you’ve been blessed to share

Like scores of those who fill our wits
Let your senses unearth the next big hit...

The fire on my face
burns and burns and burns
like the beacon in an ancient lighthouse
just to see you look at me,
I hide behind the person in front of me,
I know that you were looking, 
I've seen you do it before, 
but you've never seen me look back,
the fire, 
it burns so pleasantly,
like a small, ginseng scented tea-light,
imported from a faraway port,
and I know the little flame will never die out....

A winter sunset lights the sky imported
 and quick the day has shortened,
in dull shades of white and gray
 to fast unnoticed slip away.

Pale yellow whites streak bold with blue
 and all that's left of pumpkin harvest hues
gathers bodies towards the inside warmth
 of late October shadowy haunts.

Too fast the season finds repose
 hiding in the night  light glows
full moon rises large and orange
 awaiting winter's cold barrage....

A crystal glass brimming with fresh, ambrosial grape juice.
Some do desire imported grape wines.
No matter what, always recall, their source is God's holy vines.

I do live in heavenly, arcadian, wine country.
Occasionally, wearing, a purple see through scarf with lovely, gold leaves.
Misfortune, though, when one gets purple stains on luxuriant, shantung sleeves.

The poplar trees stood like sentries
Standing on one leg in their green
Uniformed grandeur. Beyond their
Phalanx could be seen a stately
Manor whose imported marble
Pillars were more decorative
Than utile. Not unlike the sole
Inhabitant who lies dying
In his magnificent antique
Breton bed. He never married-
“I’m too busy for such nonsense.”
Consequently, no progeny,
No living relatives, no one
Only a dreadful eulogy:
Alone died a poor man, indeed!...

Skiggin Skiggin my bonhomie friend
Imported From Mars I can apprehend
Skiggin Skiggin suspended at world's loose end


Skiggin Skiggin I do love you
Skiggin Skiggin no kitchen no loo
I have gone to City mall to buy you a shoe

Skiggin Skiggin my Martian bee 
No flower no honey only you and me
Skiggin Skiggin mom has made a cup of tea


Skiggin Skiggin my bonhomie friend
So glossy so mossy so lossy rear end
Let your eyes be closed and dream descend....

The special section in The Times,
Intended for the rich,
Showed real estate available
If homes you’d like to switch.

You need a fitness room or pool?
A chamber for the maid?
Six bathrooms and a terrace
Showing Central Park displayed?

Imported marble in the baths?
A cellar for your wine?
The latest in technology
And elegant design?

I don’t require all that stuff;
There’s nothing I am missin’
Especially compared to those
Without a pot to piss in....

She’s brilliantly nerdy as they say,
But I think she’s overrated still,
When at work she’s a lazy bee,
Who feels remorsefully adamant
about changing company’s policies 
on genuinely fake products imported,
At home ,she loves sitting on her
Soft hard sofa sipping soft soda,
Surrounded by friends who are sincerely dishonest,
And are backstabbing gentle fellows.
Yet ,she’s still gracious and kind in her ways,
I supremely condemn this false truthful trait…

That Hundred-year-old rosewood door,
Imported from Brazil and hung before the civil war,
according to the local folklore,
It was a magnificent reddish brown wooden door. 
That adorned the front of a liquor store.
An Old newspaper clipping humorously 
describes the terrific uproar.
And the gore when a hundred local women or more
stormed that liquor store they were unhinged 
when they ripped down that old rosewood door
After that day never more 
did that liquor store open its door...
