Premium Member The Curragh Races

Paddy went tae the Curragh racecourse
Bet his all on the favourite horse
Noo he’s back in Kilkenny
Withoot even a penny
Tae cry in his  Guinness wae remorse

Sack Races

Jumping Jim just loved his sack,
  Two feet in he'd jump up and back,
   He went in sack races every time
 He and his sack had a chance to shine,
Just a shame it's not an event on the track.

Submarine Races

While all parked in their separate places
Couples were watching the Submarine Races
Trying hard not to show their faces
The chicks with all of their graces
Put their tops back on - their Chantilly Laces!

Robust Races

Robust Races

We were really off to the robust races,                                                       When the moment my mind embraces;
Radical racist;
Never on list;
Found a variation in all of their faces.

THE DOGSLED RACES

                                    Restless yaps
                                    Teams of champion hearts 
                                    Race the dark

Premium Member A Day at the Races

   manes plastered down
     quarter-horses
   put through their paces
     lightning-like, whips crack the air 
 
   puddles mirror rainbows
     sunshine peeks from clouds
   hands folded around cash
     spectators pray to gods unknown

Races

Run the gauntlet
Doomsday athlete
Amass wealth
Over own health

Kill for sport
Rot will eat
Kill for hate
Hell already ate

Love more
A lottery draw
Loveless
Chalk murder drew

Fast from the past
The future passed
Light years ago
Now let ego go

Race you home
You have none
Earth was blue
A hole we blew

Faces Not Races

I grew up in the Old South Africa

During the Apartheid era

So i know what it means to be racist

But all i see is faces

And judge people solely on what
comes out of them

White is no more right

Than black is supposed to be wrong

The only thing worthy of hate

Is those who hate for no other reason

Than stupid is as stupid does

Be that any colour

Premium Member Mixed Races-

Remotely waters flow Influentially in glows Many flavors Kool-Aid Tangs mixes Soarid colored intact Racist people react Broken leaves on the trees Embalming feelings what gives Fashion departures Dark burst peoples hurt There's no room for the colors Placed in a paint can Mixed in a shaker Stirred not shaking As the Omni One Ends racism

Premium Member Talked Into Watching Drag Races

Drag racing is fun my pushy neighbor said, pleading.
I did not dare go, myself always caught speeding. 
I could picture myself in one of those bashed up cars.
Smashed up and injured, later maybe behind jail bars.

She coaxed and persuaded, and took me any way.
Watching three red Ferraris wreck kind of made my day.
I have no idea why, but this wild drag racing madness is fun.
Please tell me why you think this is if you ever go to one.
