Premium Member A Perspicacious Chickadee

My peripatetic parrot went to sea
  where he met a perspicacious chickadee

He courted her a bit too parsimoniously
  For this peccadillo, she ensured he couldn't pee


Premium Member Indelible Impressions

Memorial Day picnic by the lake, listening to the baseball game
    Thanksgiving, an indoor feast, screen tuned to the football game

  'I guess Thanksgiving is more important than Memorial Day'
    volunteered my perspicacious youngest son

Surmising they are right and never wrong.
Confidence in what they do makes them strong.
Opportunistic with whatever comes along.
Rectifying anything that may go wrong.
Perspicacious judgment in all that they see.
Insight into all eliminates any mystery.
Occupations produce goods and services with quality.

Premium Member Quick Witted Esmerelda

Esmerelda was brainy, bright, mentally keen
In the quick-witted department almost obscene
She’s sagacious, perspicacious, totally shrewd
To point it out, would be a teensy bit rude

We let her get away with things others would not try
Her brilliance intimidated more than one guy
She’ll stay single forever said her brother Ray
She fell in love and eloped with a lover the very next day

Magician

my heart bleeds before you
you do not see or choose to overlook
oblivious to my wounds

how can you be so blind?
how can you be so detached?
how could I have been such a fool?

smoke and mirrors
sleight of hand, a magician
twisting my fate

I stumble out of the darkness of this relationship
and into the blinding light of day
the fog clearing from my mind, perspicacious once again

Premium Member Eating Spaghetti With Chopsticks

The most amazing of culinary tricks would be to eat spaghetti with chopsticks. A pair of chopsticks you will never see if you go to any table in Italy. Marco Polo was not perspicacious enough to see his contribution to western culture’s popularity. When using chopsticks, you won’t get much sauce. Unfortunately, there would be much of a loss. A fork and spoon would appear a strange thing at the dinner table in Shanghai or Beijing.

Premium Member Phebe, He Is Not What He Seems To Be

I'm sorry to disappoint you, shepherdess Phebe, but your love for Ganymede can never be. You are not perspicacious enough to realize that Ganymede is actually a woman in disguise. This woman's name is Rosalind, and she seeks Orlando. Her true identity is something too few people know. However, recall shepherd Silvius whose love is true. He appears to be an ideal partner for you. Based on the play "As You Like It" by William Shakespeare

My Way

Do you think it hurts?

That you don't like my verse,

That you ridicule my prose

And say they are just absurd

But maybe I am being perspicacious

And doing it my way,

Living life in more visceral display

Than out of a dictionary of clever word play.

Do you think your disparaging of my work

Will stop me doing what I am doing

Well let me offer you these words,

I am existential and manifesting my own light,

And I don't seek your approval nor your likes.
