Neck and neck in the night sky, Dancing lights face each other; But, what are they; UFO’s Or Willow-the-wisp?

three trotting turtles
slowly raise a cloud of dust
neck and neck finish

six hissing serpents
surreptitiously slither
escaping their pasts

three city ground hogs
shaking their "jay-lo" booties
cross against the light

Republicans Are Really a Rip
Republicans Are Really a Rip (Rest In Peace)

Took a jab at Jeb
Who might be a Johnny Reb
Should he ebb and ebb?

Full of ridicule
Candidates can be a fool
Mind has a loose tool.

Leaving things a wreck
Not playing with a full deck
Running neck and neck.

Down path we were led
Vote for Hilary instead
Hear what she has said.

Irony
Neck and neck,
Could taste something new,
And was rejected.
Because I was good,
Too good at something else.
She was a nobody,
Reaching for something she never had,
Respect.
I got nothing,
Even though I gave everything I had.
My body,
My heart,
My being entirely.
I thought I deserved it,
Everyone thought I did,
But I guess not.
I deserve to be nothing more
than a pawn,
Commanded by the major....

Race Is Neck and Neck
Race Is Neck and Neck

Race is neck and neck;
Write most poems we do suspect;
Hope all are correct.

What I mean is there is a hot race between Position 4 and 5 
in Poetry Soup regarding most poems written.

President Who Is An Albatross.

When in White House we
Came across a President,
Who was an albatross.

When we will see him,
Ourselves cross and say God save us
From the albatross.

Heckboy
Censorship’s alive and well
In Dickson, Tennessee,
Whose Roxy Theater advertised
Upon its proud marquee:

“Heckboy,” playing there beside
Both “Dumbo” and “Shazam.”
Of course, there’s no such movie
And that title is a sham.

The owner thinks profanity
Should not be on the sign,
So “Hellboy” was a name that she
Decided to refine.

To me, there’s not much difference
In those words; they’re neck and neck,
But such censorship implies this country’s
On its way to Heck....

Neck and Neck
In competition, neck and neck
They held each other's pace.
The crowd was rooting silently
The whole entire race.

The both of them so well-prepared,
They'd practiced and they'd trained,
So every possibility
Their brains had entertained.

The final minutes soon approached
And I was thrilled to see
Both Vanya* and Gokul* were winners
Of the Spelling Bee!


*Vanya Shivashankar and Gokul Venkatachalam
were declared co-winners of the 2015
Scripps National Spelling Bee last night....
