Premium Member peace proposal II
If Jews would think outside the box
To Arabs they’d sell Israel’s rocks
The deal would work well
Islam’s anger to quell
Since extremists does it outfox...

Premium Member Dogs Outfox Me Once Again
I am teaching the dogs about their new hangout
Where they can poop and pee and frolic about
They love it so much as long as I am it here too
But when I leave, my dogs jump up; they are through....

Premium Member Should he Outfox or Outwit his Brother
Pete could not decide whether to outfox or outwit
His sister said, “why not outsmart?” That hurt him a bit
Their brother was not easy to bamboozle, fleece or befool
Their mother suggested, why not first try the golden rule?...

Equality At Voting Box
Equality At Voting Box


Must promote equality at  voting box;
Somehow the system have to outfox;
Adjustments make;
Do destroy all fake,
And learn from school of hard knocks.

Premium Member They Think They Can Outfox Me
They think they can get past me.
And they can if they are running flat out.
If they are trying to out-play me
They have another think coming.
I have ten grandchildren, three children,
and I have parented over twenty dogs and six cats.
It is very difficult to pull something on me
that has not already been pulled a thousand times.
The beauty of being an old experienced crone....

Premium Member Brilliant But Contemptuous
He poured his heart into the stock market
Had a knack for knowing when to invest
Tight with funds; should have had a straightjacket
Somehow he managed to avoid arrest

Passed a man living on a cardboard box
The tin cup still empty as he passed by
Though he spent his life trying to outfox
This chance for redemption he did defy

One Person and One Vote
‘One person, one vote’

Tuesday, January 30, 2018 at 1:35 pm 
To the editor of Brunswick Beacon:

Have been part of restless breed,
And need someone who will read,
Poem I wrote;
Time devote;
You a way to finish want to lead.

Must promote equality at voting box;
Then somehow whole system outfox;
Adjustments make;
Do destroy all fake,
And learn from school of hard knocks.

The New Bookcase
We ordered a bookcase.
It came in a box.
To put it together, 
We had to outfox

Supposed instructions – 
All pics, not a word.
Yet we carried on – 
We would not be deterred!

We had the right tools,
All the nails, all the screws
And with plenty of time
We had nothing to lose.

We made some mistakes
But they all got repaired
And there wasn’t a minute
We really despaired.

At last it was finished
And now it is filled.
It looks better than great
And nobody got killed!...
