Short On The Level Poems

I may be slow
But I am on the ball
I just look first
For level ground

I once knew a lawyer named Neville
Who never was on the level
He had a great itch
To become very rich
So he sold his soul to the devil...

"The Art of the Deal" is a bevel
for angles are not on the level
A bankrupt can claim
Its all just a game
Where Donald earns points from the Devil....

The Governor's name was Bob Neville 

Who was known as a civic devil

But through deified greed

Never did a good deed

I don't think he was on the level...

Y'all think I'm this handsome young devil
Got news for you all, haven't been on the level
Got quite a large tummy
Momma dresses me funny
When girls touch my hoohaw, I get all ferschemmeled...

there for you
here for me
on the level
it needs to be

going slow
an easy pace
there’s no hurry
no rat race

connecting hearts
a bond that grows
learning all
we need to know

there for you
here for me
a heart unlocked
a heart now free...

Why is it that 'All's fair in love or war?'
Because war is hell and love's a whore?
Well, there are rules in hell
Just ask the devil
And a whore's heart's made of gold
She's on the level
  So 'All's Fair' may be just a pretext
  ~ For a combatant who's oversexed...

Devil
Lucifer
These make sense
But Old Gooseberry? 
This hilarity to me is on the fence.
And yet in the dictionary, there it is as devil.
Whoever put it in there, were they on the level?
Devil
Lucifer
Okay, I understand each.
But Old Gooseberry?
This seems like an abnormal reach....

Never have I seen trouble as deep as 
The catastrophe in Tamaulipas.
I chanced on a 6-kilometer crack -
A lot of information to unpack.
If you fall into the crack, it seems,
You'll be in China or the Philippines.
I tell you straight, put it on the level -
It is either drainage or the devil....

Below the ground is the devil
Who just wouldn't stay on the level
    All he created was strife
    Then he met up with the wife
I now call them Evil Connivelled



Before I get approached by the Oxford Dictionary police.
Connivelled is not a word.

He said, "Hello". I Said, "Who are you?"
He said, "I am the Devil".
I said, "C'mon man. You're not on the level".
He said, "Yes, I am".
"I can't talk to you. My morals forbid".
The Devil said, "You just did."
"No I didn't", I said.
"Yes, you did".
I shut my mouth and stopped scoffing.
As he vanished, I heard him laughing....

poetry is poetry
it walks on the level of mystic mystery,
makes an epoch and history

No need to jail it 
in specific definition and chain
it comes spontaneously 
from the heart of natural being

the egoistic days have gone away
come, face the truth everyday
enjoy the life of wisdom peacefully
life is poetry

Beautiful, black young lady that
Lives life to the fullest and
Elevates her surroundings to get on the level that she's at
She never takes no for an answer because she is
Strong-willed and knows wat she wants out of life
Inspite of all the drama, she never loses herself within it
Not because she's perfect, but because she's 
Determined to stay on top and be the best of the best
All in all, she is who she is...Blessinda :)...

No Feeling and Not Appealing

I had to hurry up and write
this down before I forgot this.


When I never show any of my feeling;
What I write and say is not appealing;
While rambling,
Was gambling,
On you disturbed hitting head on ceiling.

Jim Horn

What happens if I check off 1st grade in Categories.
Does this mean that I am writing at a first grade level
of inteligence (LOI) and am on the level?

Also Wharton School of Business is not taught at night school....
