Or So I Was Told

My pet duck went away to the farm 
To live with all the other ducks 
Why can’t we visit him; what's the harm?
To go, you must be old
Or so I was told

Or So Help Me God

J is for the Jews and gents
E is for the Egyptian rebellion
S is for the sinners as saints
U is for Utopian a word that will never exist on this earth
S is for the sacrifices our conscience makes

Set for Life, or So They Said

Gold-lined pockets, silver spoons,
Promised futures wrapped in runes.
Gilded gates and marble halls,
A name that echoes through the walls.

Yet wealth is weight, a velvet chain,
Shackled smiles, a life in vain.
For what is gained if soul is sold,
If warmth is lost to hands so cold?

Not all that glitters warms the night,
Not all who shine are bathed in light.

It's Just a Thought Or So I Think

My mind it wanders here and there 

And at times it may go nowhere 

Days go by when thoughts come in 

And then theres the ones what a waste what  a sin 

But then a bulb bright and clear 

It's a thought you might even hold dear 

Even if you may begin to think 

That it's  not important enough for ink 

Jot them down cause you may find 

Todays idea is tomorrows mind line

So, and so, or so

So creeped out by my own ideas,
So I am so bad as I seemed, because
So and so said so, and
So and so sees it, and I'm
So scared to be what I'm scared of, what
So and so is said to be, what is
So so bad, so bad as it seems, she's
So creeped out said so and so, and
So scared to see it for so long, and
So and so said so, with
So and so and so and so, so
So so so so so so so.
So very much done with this.

Premium Member A Brief History of Progress Over the Past 125 Years Or So

Technology ascending
  Traditional religion ending
Robots comprehending
  Life's secrets upending

Black holes extending
  Cyber wars impending
Electronic devices contending
  Wizard-like gurus pretending

Media noise unrelenting
   Massive armament-spending
Extremism transcending
   Holocausts never ending

How much better now, our enlightened Life --
   Man's Progress measured in Death, Polarization and Strife
