Balance Sheet

Time is a balance sheet,
Assets and Liabilities,
Time in asset,time out liability,
Asset over liability equal like a balance sheet,
In Asset no change,liability no change,
No debtors no creditors and no bankruptcy,
Time in and time out equal,a strong balance sheet!


Eighteenth Century Love

Treatise of love suborn
Of feelings, desires shorn
With parochial aspirations born
On ritual wings bourne
Romance brokered forlorn
On christening morn, personal 
license torn
Deeded by title; underwritten 
with scorn
Parceled with dowry; with 
annuities adorn
Liabilities, a fitted mantle 
charitably worn

Let Me Burn Away

Fire....fire.....fire....

Let me burn away;

Just look at me,

Can you see the brightest light inside me;

Let me run away,

I'm tired of facing all these liabilities;

 I have that fire,

Just need to strike up, need to strike up

That fire;

Let me burn away,

Fire fire fire...

Fire fire fire...

Out of Time

Planning your demise is like 
walking on a tight rope    
realising there's no net
challenging a 
speeding car and
daring it to stop
mortgaging your manhood
amassing liabilities with no program of repayment
leaping to the wrong conclusions
leaning toward self-delusions
indulging in the same old self-
defeating speculations
endorsing self-destruction 
till you're finally out of time.

Out of Time

Planning your demise is like 
walking on a tight rope    
realizing there's no net
challenging a 
speeding car and
daring it to stop
mortgaging your manhood
amassing liabilities 
with no program of repayment
leaping to the wrong conclusions
leaning toward self-delusions
indulging in the same old self-
defeating speculations
endorsing self-destruction 
till you're finally out of time.

Out of Time!

Planning your demise is like 
tip-toeing on a tight rope    
realising there's no net
challenging a 
speeding car and
daring it to stop
mortgaging your manhood
amassing liabilities with no program of repayment
leaping to the wrong conclusions
leaning toward self-delusions
indulging in the same old 
self-defeating speculations
endorsing self-destruction 
till you're finally out of time!

Out of Time

Planning your demise is like 

tip-toeing on a tight rope    

realising there's no net

challenging a 

speeding car and

daring it to stop

mortgaging your manhood

amassing liabilities with no program of repayment

leaping to the wrong conclusions

leaning toward self-delusions

indulging in the same old 

self-defeating speculations

endorsing self-destruction 

'til you're finally out of time!

Hungary people can’t hold a grudge
They judged that it would never budge
Walled off by a dam
This heavy metal jam
Raspberry sludge was factored fudge


Author's note: Well, Stanley--it's another fine mess you've gotten me into.  It all goes to 
show how impossible it is to move liabilities off the balance sheet.  Enron, Worldcom, 
Citigroup, Lehman Brothers, and the debt crisis will strike again...and again...and again....

What Is There To Life And Love

Life is like a game of chess,
Change is a constant occurrence;
If we don't reach the end,
How will you know who's the victor?

Love has the same direction,
Going opposite is a disaster;
One way street is wisdom,
Obey traffic rules.

Life generate wins,
Love generate wealth;
Both are great assets,
To fight liabilities in this world.

Life is precious,
Love is gracious;
Both are gifts from above,
Priceless commodities of man.

Premium Member Deep in the Heart of a Weekend

     Deep in the heart of a weekend
        No plans, no promise, no pizazz

     A feeling as if I were robbed of something
        My youth, to be precise

     When Saturday night and Sunday found me out and about

     Ah, but what’s the point of comparing fragrance and fragility
        I’m happy with my life of sitting and writing and waiting

     Waiting for my disabilities to return to abilities
        recover assets, ditch liabilities

Deeded Love

It's true I deeded my heart 
that rapturous date
 Sacral vestments our carnal 
annuities did aggregate  
Bartered my dreams; title did 
abrogate
Twined our limbs; bonded our 
estate
But fealty with baggage did not 
equate
Your mercurial state brokered 
new rate
Your charming assets failed 
o'er time to appreciate
Frivolous investments virgin 
stock did depreciate 
Mounting liabilities did fidelity's 
cost inflate
Now tainted, discounted 
merchandise seeking rebate
