Sometimes smelly
Like a goat's underbelly
But often causing painful spasms

Euphemism’s a useful device
When referring to things that aren’t nice.
“Where the sun doesn’t shine”
Is a favourite of mine.
I’m sure you don’t need telling twice
Tilted nipple, lend
Your acquiescent ballast
To rotate earths breast
Referring to the “Milky Way”

If
only
women
would name
their periods like
hurricanes - it would
be much simpler for all the
poor guys to work out just which
argument you’re currently referring to
Growing it again, to my beard I'm referring
Not marijuana that the Feds are deterring
My face fuzz it is
Much charm it gives
Most likely will start all the Soup ladies purring
Growing it again, to my beard I'm referring
Not marijuana that the Feds are deterring
My face fuzz it is
Much charm it gives
Most likely will start all the Soup ladies a-purring<>
He Had Mistook Her
He had mistook her
Appeared to be a hooker;
Not a good looker.
Now who could that
possibly be that I am
referring to? Name That
Name should be the start
of a new show.

Are witches real, I mean those that cast spells
Only referring to those that in dark castles dwell
Not talking silly witchcraft
About those in movies cast
But real witchy-poos that remind us of hell
Growing it again, to my beard I'm referring
Not marijuana that the Feds are deterring
My face fuzz it is
Much charm it gives
Will surely start the Soup ladies' hearts' a-purring

Men do it standing up,
women sitting down.
Dogs need to raise one leg,
this is what I've found!
I know just what you're thinking,
so just to let you understand,
all that I'm referring to,
is simply "shaking hands"!
At what point exactly ?
Is one entitled to call oneself a poet ?
Is it when you think you have written something noteworthy of consequent ?
Or a critic adversary or peer referring
to a work by name not with disdain ?
I WAS ADMISDST THE GARDEN
It was heaven
Referring on early earth
Eden
Shape of things emerging
Free will choice desiring, engaging
I stood midst the flowers
In the field working

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2024©
Now frontsies or backsies can have a different connotation
When referring to the many varied sexual orientations
To me it doesn't matter
As long as there's no chatter
To disturb the task at hand and my total concentration

Plato said in Phaedrus that the first
prophecies were the words of oaks.
Those that lived at that time found
it rewarding enough
to listen to oaks
or stones, so long
as they would
tell the
truth!
Plato was referring to shamen in general, I imagine.

translator

Reminiscence of what I heard of her
They said she is beautiful
And of good character
In her I soon see
The character my mother
Was referring to
My eyes are widely opened
Now I can heartily feel
Needless nothing much
Than to bring her to mother
And seek her blessings

It's a New York style I'm not used to
It's one I normally run and hide from
I'm not used to the attention
I'm normally the one fading away to nothing
I freak not knowing what to do
My words get away from me
All I was referring to was the New York style
And I was only telling ONE that understands
Now only time will tell
Let´s meet the happy-go-lucky man;
full-blooded,
neither craven nor valiant,
taking life as it comes with a touch of indifferent air,
good-humored, easy-going,
careless and not jealous.
Just It wouldn´t be bad to beam him a bit of mundane grandeur to be a perfect partner.
If it was not because...
We are actually referring to a dummy
Tell me why, but tell me True-
Spare me the heartbreak of a Lie
I would lay forever in these meadows...
Forever, until I die!
To rid myself of all the Pain,
And the Sorrows of what I feel
To ease my Mind, my worried Brain
(Lord! The Cuts! I need to heal)
*Referring to my problems with "Borderline Personality Disorder"; many of us are "cutters"
