On the pond
A bent bamboo's shadow
Catfish examines a worm...

Starring from afar,
A figure of fine structure,
                    Examines her breasts....

Since moving to this berg we have a new doc
Her name is sweet Kimberly, fresh out of the box
Brand spanking new 
Love spanking, don't you
Whenever she examines, I never watch the clock...

rice rains through his small hands
he examines the crunchy snow
and feels the tickle of each little grain
his palms, like a cloud,
he draws them upward
then slowly lets them trickle,
making solid puddles in the pan....

Since moving to this burg we have a new Doc
Her name is sweet Kimberly, fresh out of the box
Brand spanking new 
Love spanking, don't you
Whenever she examines, I never watch the clock

I go to lovely school
teacher teaches me
only the back I see

He writes on chalkboard
words and figures
only shadows I see
He marks my books
red pen black pen
only crosses I see

And teacher examines me
tests, home work
only excellence I see...

Practice

Goals
studied
steadfastly
time and again
achieves preparedness repeatedly.

Ends embarrassing errors, happily
examines skills
sets sights on
success
won.

She writes some words 'pon the paper
Examines them
Then she writes one more word
Tears run down her cheeks
She crumples the paper
Letting it drop to the floor
With it the pen falls, ink spilling mixed with tears
Staining the paper upon the floor ...

The lazy river drifts on by
Its waters deep deep green
Running shallow lazily
In search of grasses unseen

No star far enough to satisfy
A hungry soul in search.
Ocean's depths can't hold the restless.
A lonesome desire for mirth

Pacing back and forth between
Microscope, seas, and stars.
The hyper human examines; 
Feeling trapped behind bars ...

March Madness

fluffed snow tickles the nose
freckles dot the tawny grass
crazed puppies circle a white haired tree
a cat examines its shaking paw
children laugh at March’s lion
frosted windows smile
invisible birds stand silent vigil
tires spin, shovels scrape
a passing dog adds a dash of yellow
Spring peeks from behind the Ground Hog

She patiently examines each handful,
inspecting it for special stone she's lost.
Noticing all the rocks she holds are dull,
she patiently examines each handful
while calling herself a stupid numskull.
Knowing how much the diamond must have cost,
she patiently examines each handful,
inspecting it for special stone she's lost.

Psalm 11:5

the Lord examines
both the righteous and wicked
He hates those who love
~

those He hates who loves
unrighteous and wicked ways
the Lord examines

~
wooh unto me those
humanity those that strife
the Lord examines

~

wooh unto me those
hate He does that unrighteous 
the Lord examines

~

those who love violence
the Lord examines both the 
righteous and wicked
