Short Reinforces Poems

A quiet stillness
That the fog reinforces;
Peaceful cool mornings....

Just sittin' on a bench
Whilin' away makin' no sense
Just contemplatin' the sky
Azure blue with clouds wheelin' by

Seein' the birds flyin' high
As they float and weave in the sky
Then a cool breeze brings us some relief
A summer's day will just reinforces your belief.

Tests arrest students' rest:
Requesting the best their stomachs digest;
To see the ones that would be oppressed,
And the ones that would repossessed...
Providing solutions to teacher's quests, 
From the simple twists to them he ingested--
That with pen, he will have marks attest:
Either make cane's justice get them swiftly arrested 
Or make praise reinforces their progress assessed....

taking a one week sabbatical
going to rest my soul and mind
going to put it all behind me
going to get away from the grind

Mexico is waiting
the peace and quite I need
that resurrects my spirit
that reinforces me

no cell phone connection
no landline to be reached
disconnect from everything
while I lay on the beach

I’ll come back reinvented
a soul that’s been restored
lucky if it lasts one day
a very short reward...

Jumping to conclusions
Reinforces your illusions
That the way things are 
Are how they shouldn’t be.

To avoid any confusions
Or suspicions of delusions
Some investigation
Seems to be the key.

Then you’ll find, to the exclusions
Of some paranoid collusions,
That the things you thought
Are not exactly true…

So be sure that such inclusions
Happen fast before seclusions
Are the punishments
That wait in store for you....

Everything
we know,
or
think
we know,
comes from an
infinitesimal
speck of
time
and
space.
“Important” people,
just random
specks
of insignificance.
Nothing more
than
Sea Monkeys,
fluttering around
Sea Monkey world.
Everything spoken
as
truth only
reinforces
ignorance.
Sea Monkey
world could
cease to
exist,
the cosmos
would not
shed
a tear.
So when
next
you meet
a pompous
ass.
Remember,
and smile,
that
It’s just
a
Sea Monkey
after all....

The power of love can remove obstacles, thorns
and barnacles,

It gives faith and trust in times of weakness
and defeated feelings,

Love can be sobering and revealing,

It reinforces self-love and positive emotions,
showing us the people who truly love us
with unquestionable devotion,

The power of love has the ability to heal,
even when we have been wronged by unimaginable eels,

It washes away negative feelings and toxicity,
clearing our path for mental acuity....

Do not be full of yourself, Momma said,
Leave room in your self for those who love you
Whatever you do, do not be mislead
Someone will try to manipulate you
By telling you what they want you to do.
Remember, you must chart your own life course
Draw deep from within your inner sources
And do not forget those who love you most
Draw from inside strength that reinforces
But "to thine own self be true" is foremost.*

[*The quote is from Shakespeare's Hamlet,
Act 1, Scene 3.]...
