No Show Rubio

There once was a Florida resident
Who set quite a political precedent,
	Missed half Senate votes,
	But staff took some notes! 
And now he wants to be president?

I really don’t know how long it has been
That parmesan comes shredded from businessmen
We need a president
To set the precedent
To help make America ‘grate’ again

Precedent

Before the particle disturb, make eyelid protect
Before the triangle, make sides equilateral
Before the obstacle, make hinder simple
Before the knowledge, make skill amaze

Efficacy

Simple to you and easy to me,

 The precedent to implement will affect efficacy, 

Why?, 

I surmise when somethings easy to see, 

The Mind will have you do exactly as you please.

Solitude

Sweet, blissful solitude
A moment an instant
Given, taken
Captured, and caught up
Full with potential
Brimming with promise
Undisrupted by precedent
Selfishly coveted
Sought after

Premium Member Losing Light

Losing light.
Hope evasive
Optimism fluttering.
Enthusiasm for survival
takes precedent over all else
In survival mode
Illness oozing out of pores
I pick up a pen and promptly drop it.
Words are nonentities for me right now.
The key is survival.

President Without a Precident

President Without A Precedent

Is a President
Without any precedent
Not with our consent

Listening to Rachel Maddow show
and this came to my mind. All 
of the negativism that is appearing
seems to have an obverse affect
creating a positive response.

Saturday Limerick For Cats

My cat  was de-tailed in an accident
                              First she was mauled by a big elephant
                                    Then she ran on to the street
                                     And bounced over the sleet
                               And lost her tail without a precedent
fun

Premium Member The Other Cheek

It’s only make believe, I know
But in my fondest dream I go
To some resplendent mountain peak
To gain the precedent I seek
Whereby the wisdom of the Son
Who meekly died for everyone
Is turn the other cheek.

Premium Member Is the U K still a democracy '

Is the UK a democracy.? Or has it slid to an
Un-sound autocracy.? Where a sucession
Is handed down.' And this not soley of the
Crown.? 
When did due proven process,  and the peoples voice? Become trampled down.?
Along with freedom of the electorates choice.' How can any such rumoured move be
Sound, what former precedent be found.?

Lost Voyage

To give life, and have that life dejected away, within seconds….. Pleading for a precedent, Incapable of escalating.
 Designed second, within spent habits, disqualified from my child. Bitter sentiments of mediocrity and anguish. Powerless to retreat, decisively surrendering. Trusting to lull my droll agony, melancholy. Imploring for my termination.

Premedicated

This must be an accident,
have I set a precedent?
is there something that
Monday's not telling me?

It's six of the clock plus three
plus me 
and far too light in the day 
I may even float off and away
to where yonder lies.

Or is this a parable of the 
traveller
inconsolable on
Monday?

Whatever
it's never good news 
to 
the one who's 
listening.

Labour part 5

The  fox quakes with delight
Means testing winter fuel
what a future precedent
Already ditching the social care plan
They say they have a black spending hole
so spending must abate for a while
Tax your January private schools
and who else
They ride roughshod over the old
tax forms for the lot
They collect monies 
you've never read about
like inheritance tax

Beliefs

All beliefs are based upon same precedent.
Good and evil battle until end is near.
Mankind is always ever so negligent.
Split between each person is true faith and fear.
Good shall overcome evil this we all know.
Humankind will always have their choice to show.
Good will never destroy good, this we know true.
Evil destroys evil; that is what they do.

Pedestal (Dorsimbra)

To speak so clear in face of love’s demise,
will elevate the consciousness of one
‘til all will see the world so through her eyes
and so complete will counteract undone.

I set you higher
than I could ever reach
and I’ll probably hurt
myself trying

Though words are merely words, the precedent
is set for future days as simply this
unless I set you down, and find the strength
to speak so clear in face of love’s demise.

Premium Member Tossci Bolt '

Harshly treated at 'so called' court.. whose only scales
Are visual.' In pure truth' such ruling is naught..No precedent of goodlaw given .' The judge surely needs to
Be forgiven.' Such blatent an affront the health and life, in
A country with indiginous; aging entrenched; its truly most rife'
This is un-fair, un-balanced and conspiricy in act, i see it was
All pre-meditated, in the whole proceedure; observing only the facts.'

Premium Member New Zealand's Euthanasia Law

Potential Euthanasia law in New Zealand
Encouraging Euthanasia
Profoundly Eye-opening

Might encourage 
All kinds of people
Who had never thought of it before
To accept suicide

Unclear if this law has been passed
A dangerous precedent.
Making suicide common

Making taking your own life
Acceptable
Desirable
Natural

Scary to me 
What this could do
to a society
Where teenagers are
already casually killing themselves

Premium Member Precedent Death's Breath-

Preceded death; Absent of breath; What have I left; As my remains you view; Yet this is not me nor is it you; As the many changes have came and passed; I've gone on into the aftermath glances; Phoenix wings and light so shine; I have flown I have risen; I have flied, tho! You cry; Sigh!,..................... Shhhh! Don't cry I'm O K I'm with God NOW

a story set in Futuristic times. A renewable source of energy had been found using long forgotten methods. Those who owned the materails wished a high price in bargaining.Each means of absolution is weighed and included in the price.

Rainsoaked fields,pastel green,
perennial impressions of country scenes.
Shire counties cramped and compact,
neither temperate,changeable and in exact.
Seasons merging into one,
winters' mild,summers of sometime sun.
Ancient,historic and quaintly modern,
pub-grub,village greens and cricket squares sodden.
Precedent law,judged by our peers,
diverse opinions expressed sans fear.
Reserved,resolved and resolute anglais
with national flag but no national day.

       Man weds cockroach in church ceremony  
        Guests munch on freshly grilled abalone

      Pastor upholds his sworn duty
        Lectures bride and groom on infidelity

      Barely two months into marriage
        Tiny baby cockroach appears in a carriage

      Headlines shout out the bad news  
         Seems Mrs. Cockroach was groped and abused

      Minister contacted Planned Parenthood
         Lacking precedent, post-full-term abortion approved
