Or
Do everything and be something...

She said she could not condone it
Nor could she even postpone it
So come what may
It makes her day
To feast upon an hot doughnut!...

It's Tit's
Which Tit's
Those Tit's
Switch Tit's
So, schedule a Doctor
Postpone the Benz
Two brand new Boob's
Are money well spent....

In this passing life,
for loving her so much,
inevitably i must depart...
I postpone this act
every day...
But day will come
that there will be 
no further delay...!...

bride in mourning for father
his last wish for her to not postpone her wedding day
wedding two days after funeral
delicate white moth arrived
led daughter down the aisle...

Anticipation 
nights spent alone
miming our conversation
just in case you phone
declare fathomless devotion
no reason to postpone 
claim this heart's commotion 
let your love be known

Sunday-

Pouring into yourself
Daydreaming in the crisp evening breeze
Wanting to postpone tomorrow
Thoughts like a tornado
Still-
Enjoying silence
Basking in the quiet and the calm

A Sunday Psalm...

Escaping from the depths of your mind

To a place called Nowhere Land

A solitary life lived inside your head

Leaving the pain behind


Whether you will return is unknown

No quality of life

“Living” on postpone!...

was on a quest
to postpone 
inevitable downfall
was always trying 
to satisfy
need to control
situations outside 
comfort zone 
inferior effort to 
try and reach a 
level of contentment
based upon acquiring
things outside the self
failed miserably...

Place some fish
  on your dish,
'cause it can help your mind;
squeeze some lemon on it too;
just throw away the rhine.
Now, don't postpone,
nor take too long
for a healthy meal like this,
has always been known ,
to make you very strong!

Balassi stanza

In other worlds out there, 
kids hide and say a prayer.
Mom needs the mornings to snooze.
This child gets up alone, 
her hunger to postpone;
Dad's only care is his booze.
She must get to the bus 
without making a fuss;
there's no sense gettin' a bruise.

Anthologies of language form, the core of man’s suppositions,
Breathing life into the Word with grace and contrition.
Counting, countless citizens mass to pray their propositions
Doubtless to postpone the day of their forewarned superstitions.
In the Beginning there was the Word and the Word was …...

Last race, fast pace.
Too fast, can't last.

Save breath, postpone death,
Can't walk or talk.

Race is over; count the cost.
Some are winners, others lost.

I know as time goes by,
That someone more incredible than you or I
Know when and how we will die.
And the race will be over without a sigh. Goodbye...

Let’s put that in the parking lot.
It means Mr. Money will postpone a decision.
We drones look at each other.
Anything the boss wants is imperative.

Any suggestion from the minions is delayed.
Put off, shelved, indefinitely suspended.
One of the new employees protests. She is fired.
The rest of us keep quiet, wanting our pay....

You will never see him grown.
No, it isn’t fair
to see you lying there,
wishing we could postpone
this thing written in the book.
Being who we are,
our road may be less far.
We may not have long to look,
for the pathway we should take.
What we see
as the who we wish to be,
may be short, narrow in the wake.

Listen to poem:

Precariously poised on 
the precipitous precipice,
I pondered whether a nose-dive plummet
into the whirlpool lagoon below
was prudent, well-advised and provident.
But the angry impassive persona,
of the ever so cross porpoises,
seen purposefully prancing there
gawking up at me,
persuaded me to prudently, 
postpone the plunge....

A guy to his girlfriend on phone-

"I love you,you do too,
But now I also love someone else.
She doesn't fritter my money,shout,cry like you,
She's dark,beautiful,an enchantress.

She invigorated my spirits,mesmerized me,
I didn't even realize when the sun sunk.
We'll postpone our date of tonight,I can't drive now,
'Cause baby,I'm drunk!"...

ANGER

Anger is a kind of madness 
It can be controlled by kindness

Try to  postpone your anger 
Delay is the remedy for anger

Acid harms the vessel that stores it
Anger harms the person who harbours it

Avoid open your mouth when you are angry
Every word said in anger will give you worry

Learn to control Anger
Before it controls you...

I send you flowers by the drove 
and all my fantasies 
My heart beat in a steady rove  
and all my love;
You opted to postpone me love ,   
your sweet affection 
was denied, and so I cried; 
While all the flowers in my grove
dried up and died,  
I gathered up my words 
and all my fantasies 
and took them  home.

Listen to poem:

I'll be happy when I reach my goal.
Meanwhile I'm sad because
I'm not even close to getting there.
Why postpone happiness
and make it dependent on 
goals and changes needed 
to get the rewards they bring?
It is so self-defeating, a poor excuse!
I can be happy now,
with what I've got now,
with whom I am now,
enjoying the journey,
instead of chasing rainbows....

If to pound speaks of a violent motion, 
Why then my heart moves violently
If to fall is a tragic thing
Then the night is a sweet tragedy
If to steal is a crime
Then give me my beautiful thief
So I can take back the kisses he stole
From me 
One by one by one...

If to break is an event as should be avoided
Then, pray, postpone the dawn
Its first crack is on the horizon's edge
Yet it seems the night has scarce begun...

Poisoned apple dangling 
before mine eyes
Are you the royal feast 
before one dies?
Is there a hangman gladly 
lurking by
And crowds to bid  another 
fool goodbye?
Can I just take a little baby 
bite
To quench this thirst about 
to douse my light?
Do you expect in hunger I 
despise
This meal of death 
disguised as paradise?
Should I postpone the day 
my loved ones cry
And live in woe or do I say 
goodbye?...
