The Double Cross

Where pigeonholes outnumber pegs
A spinster may get only dregs
But God's Double-Cross
Is like a coin toss:
Cross your fingers or cross your legs!

Premium Member DAILY GRATITUDE LOVE

This Valentine’s day I’m grateful for love
I believe a majority of people in this world have a kind and loving heart
Which makes me wonder:
Why are we allowing those whom we outnumber
to keep us all apart?

Premium Member We Outnumber the Crazies

Good people outnumber the crazies by a bunch We don't cause a sensation but for that I have a hunch We should demand the headlines Instead of these perverted asinines And make love in the park while having our lunch © Jack Ellison 2015

Such Dreams

Such dreams come and go
that
life in comparison seems
dull
waking hours
only intervals between them
in that land
that far off place
I again see you smile
your distant face
but self delusion
brings his friend
illusion to outnumber
reality
and
replace
it.

Premium Member Opportunity Economics

               There will always be

                  RICH and POOR

               The rich outrun the poor

             The poor outnumber the rich

           The MIDDLE outweigh the sides

     Free people work hard when opportunity

       Offers a chance to move up and down

                The Ladder of Prosperity.


Love Loves

Love Loves it when,
Romance is in the air,
And we agree to share.

Love Loves it when,
Children come first,
And we wait to quench our thirst.

Love Loves it when,
Welcome mats,
Are as common as old hats.

Love loves it when,
Flowers shops,
Outnumber betting shops.

Love Loves it,
When hate stays outside the gate,
And love songs propagate.

Premium Member Silver Lining

Combing through the carnage
Questions outnumber answers
Derailed if dwell on the details 
Will we forfeit all our advances?

Easy to get singularly focused 
On second guessing decisions 
Better to not ruminate on regrets
Since the past has no revisions 

Power in pivoting to the present 
As a new path has been charted 
Final destination still unknown
But in a better place than we started

Premium Member A Poem For Pearl

May you fall, so you may rise
May your horizons surpass your skies
May your future fill your eyes
May you make mistakes that make you wise
May your laughs outnumber your cries
May you wear your beauty, undisguised
May you stumble, so you may sympathize
May love take you by surprise
May you catch the light of fireflies
May your dreams flower to full size
May you hear your song - and harmonize.

Independence From The Herd

The herd will outnumber you 
with an opinion you’re equal too
the echo chamber is hollow 
so those ego chasers follow 
as they parrot the sheep 
opinions they can keep 
because safety means acceptance 
and popularity has importance 
so they’re finally fitting in 
and it soothes the soul within 
that’s when you can walk alone 
stronger than the herd have known 
thinking for yourself 
as they copy someone else

Premium Member A Reformer

A poet can see
What the sun can’t.
Is the one whose words 
Like sharp arrows, 
Are aimed at the causes of 
Human sorrows. 
Is the one who awakens us
From our deepest slumber.
Is the one with whose inspiration 
Our hurdles easily we outnumber.
Is the one famous as mankind's transformer,
Well plays the role of a social reformer.

Premium Member Rat Fink Pie

The biggest "Rats" eat 90% of the "Cheddar!"

That only leaves one slice for billions of "Mice!"

But does that make the "Rats" better than the "Mice?"

Maybe it's time for the "Mice" to "EAT" the "Rats!"

Wouldn't that be nice? The "Mice" outnumber those "Finks!"

If the "Mice" were willing to pay the price..."Free Drinks!"

I'd even dine with "Swine" to see the "Rats" fry!

Hey "Folks," how 'bout a "Fat" slice of "Rat Fink" pie?

As Long As

As long as God is Head
There shall be a roof over our heads
Where we shall bake our bread

As long as God is Love
There shall be enough to have
In, around, over and above

As long as God blesses
There shall be excesses
In our threshing floors and winepresses

As long as God is alive
The Heavens are an oozing hive
Dripping the sweetness of our thrive

As long as God is for us
We outnumber any legion in mass
And surpass any etiquette in class

COPLA DOS (TWO):  This Bad Guy World

-	The second COPLA in the series –


Bad guys in this world got it made
They simply outnumber good guys:
Their paradise;

Bad guys help themselves to the shade
Reduce good guys to broken toys
Every so wise;

If good guys by chance reach the top
Then they’ll drag them down with one voice
Crying foul play;

If good guys fight back they’ll sure flop
For bad guys know how to rig dice:
Great game they play.
