PREPARED NOW FOR HIS FINAL STAND,
SEEKING ONLY THE Promised Land,

her bosoms

A new extreme
Where life has no limits
And death is not promised
For we only live once
Yet once lasts an eternity

To deplore the festive season
Since the farmer didn’t bluff
When he promised them good stuff

With so many men, where to begin?
But one by one
She had great fun
And promised herself to come again.

guide me to the promised land
before my last dawn
show me pleasures not fortold

Just another grey day to endure
We have been promised nouvelle cuisine
So Oliver will be asking for more

The paradise the Book promised me
To walk on streets of made of gold.

Albatross
Albatross is a nice seabird,
He predicts when sea storm appears.
He doesn’t breathe a word
He promised the sea to keep for years.

God never promised you and I Eden –
Only thistles, but even a thistle
Will grow tall in shaft and be edible.
Was that not sufficient for Adam?
