A stitch in time saves nine, lest, out of step lose pep, 'ere gains back mislaid track; cruise control, lose neutral.

practice makes perfect as perfect is relative subject is practice

Not In the Bible, Though -

God helps those who help themselves
Hidden here a kernel of truth: "no free lunch!"
But if I seek a shelter in real or fancied homelessness
"A stitch in time saves nine," - not my bikini (thanx a bunch)

A STITCH IN TIME

A stitch in time saves nine
It also works in just four lines
So ends the  length of my little rhyme
I think four lines will work just fine

Joker In the Pack

Some people are weird, silly and fat.
You can’t eat jokes,
And we want tears of laughter not sadness.
Days gone by I was always laughing.
Slapstick and custard pies.
A stitch in time saves nine when laughing out loud,
and boys will be boys for crying out loud.

Why a 'needle' in a haystack
  What's it doing there
And 'a stitch in time 'saves nine' ~
  If nine more stitches, who cares

And who ever cries over 'spilled milk'
  I'm certainly not of that ilk
If 'a penny' saved were a MILLION earned
  Then perhaps I'd dress in silk

All I'm saying here, my friends
  Is it might be wise to analyze
Why we say, 'Want fries with that'
  ~ Why risk eating your hat

The First Day of the Rest of Your Life

If you don’t like the weather
wait five minutes and it will change.

A pitcher has pitched a shutout—
he is a hero.

You can bet
he’s talked about everywhere.

Somewhere something is on sale—
it was marked up the first day.

A song in the background rocks
but it is lost in haste.

A stitch in time saves nine
but old blue jeans are thrown away.

People say take care
and disappear.

A man in a bar nurses his drink
half-empty or half-full.

The Stitch

”... a stitch in time saves nine…”
do you think we’d be without mind?
a measure of seven was taken in the wind…
then a cat came out to say meow my friend.
eternity flows in endless directions
seven to nine needs the hearts intention
love is sublime and it goes without mention
life is a creation of the merging oceans
and living is being, in this serge of motion

”... the sum of nine was carried four…
1300 days through a mile of corridor “
She came to the game with nothing more.

Shut It

A stitch in time saves nine
Doctors and nurses all around him
Maintaining his pulse above the flat line
The vodka got his tongue loose
Dissing the bouncer who was way bigger
Too bad he had a short fuse
And beat the drunk up like John Cena





 ( this is based on a true story, i had a friend who felt like he owned the club whenever he was high and one day he run his mouth to a bouncer who had a temper and he knocked his lights out, if you are having fun don't cross other people's boundaries)
