In class

had come to me earlier

Much less than I settled for
—still more than I deserved

If more is less
  then less is more
Is it too skimpy
  Are models whores

Fashion's dress
  is less and less
What's more ~ 
  Skin's a bore...

Les Moore went down to the liquor store

But then wound up passed out on the floor

He woke Gin anointed

And guite disappointed 

So I guess you might say less is more...

There is reflection in your passing by, there is a tooth an eye for an eye.
Come my dear, come quick some clear.
Arrive, now gone, I’ve met your type, good bye my love until next time....

CORRUPT



Laws and yet more laws show
Show corruption at the door
When less is more sense flow
Deplete with ooze that pours

Evermore was all I ever wanted.
All I ever wanted was you forever more.
But you insisted, “Less is more.”
Less is, more or less, all you ever gave me.
And all you ever gave me left me cold forever more....

Why stop now? Look past the obvious.  All night out. Non-stop conciousness. Oxygen 
between cigerettes.  Once again I'm a drunk mess. Less is more unless you're wreckless. 
Pedal to the floor they'll never catch us....

Solitary Times When Less Is More, TY

I can
do more,
write less,
keep score,
This moment, I can, hope to write less.
With much leaner pen, do more, keep score.

Less is more for it opens our heart’s door,
whence simply by choosing not to resist,
blissful in the boat God Himself does oar,
free from mundane riff-raff, no to-do list,
in staid stillness, we become a bliss mist,
whereupon all illusions fall away
and we see the light of Self, clear as day....

HAIKU EKPHRASIS
A short-lived blossom of Spring
like a mayfly that lives for the day,
the pathos of beauty so fleeting,
a few syllables that remain,where 
less is more and the image lives
its life forever, in memory.

my needs are simple
when isolated 
from my wants
it took a while
to realize
my many wants
were mere
obstructions
preventing me
from
focusing
on my dreams

less is more
                                   except where it concerns
                                   the spoken words
                                   and we don't so much
                                   need to heed
                                   the words of those who know
                                   less is more...

Locked deep within an onyx gaze 
wrap me in your perfect darkness;   
Semi sweet taste of chocolate 
painting your luxurious lips; 

My blindfolded sixth sense betrays 
deprivation with so much finesse;  
Releasing peace lying dormant, 
less is more on these types of trips;

Let these eyes remain closed always, 
lost in each ebony caress....

Sobriety is the key,
The missing key all these years,
Covid-19 has taught us moderation,
Muted celebrations,
No scale, pomp or extravagance,
No more crowds,
An uncertain world,
Covid-19 made us rethink,
Social distancing is happening,
Minimalist approaches,
In today’s toxic environments,
We need to come together,
For a better shared future....

To be in the red is a glorious feeling,
If fleeting, I have my moment of victory

Numbers where less is more and red,
Red, RED flows like liquid love
Ever so pleasing to mine eyes.

Practice, practice everyday
All my practice has not been in vain
Joy, Joy, JOY for the victor

Driven to suceed, through the 
Explosion, gray smoke and gun powder...

It is not bad to step outside
I learned it is not bad to
If it is causing more damage than not 


I was wrong to say I was right
Bad decisions are what I tell
But I learned so much more

About anyone, About myself
It isn't bad to step outside 
And to get to know that less is more

No, well. Do not believe the adverts.
It is not bad to step outside, No
