There once was a cross-eyed guy
Whose symptom he liked to deny
He’d always resist
His optometrist
Coz they just couldn’t see eye-to-eye...

Who needs parades or who gets the wing?
We have no need for carols to sing.
For what matters today
is:" Get out of my way!"
as Black Friday and bargains are king....

A symptom of a disease

              can often be

            misleading, indeed

world-wide web googles prove insightful.

A Corona like disease

To avoid the association to be lucky
To lead a life to live happy...

Feelings can mislead
To do a stupid deed!

Go to bathroom again and again?
Not by the hair of my chinny-chin-chin!

Is it a symptom - Then be brave!
I'm the only one I can save!...

Should Do with Each Symptom

Are things we should do with each sympton;
Find cause then learn how to preempt them;
Searched around,
And then found,
Some ways that we can, also, exempt them.

To be moved by the pain yes ..
fall in love with her, no ...

To be moved by sadness,
it's a human symptom, having pleasure
this is addiction ...

Captivated by the mystery, it is
horrible provoking, living in darkness
it's grotesque ......

She lies, tan gentle lines and curves so sharp
she pairs her heart horizontal to zero 
But she can't ignore the signs anymore
For a symptom hopes a cure will appear
Strum soft sweet chords on wire lyre strings, we come
Together to throw arc shadows on walls...

Like Adam in the Garden
Before he’d lost his rib…
Pinocchio in springtime
Who yet had learned to fib…
Perfection’s just a symptom
Of dreams we wish would be.
What can go wrong is costly.
What goes right is never free.
Keep calm and return fire.
You know the rdill....

Day

This symptom of reality
Moves the wind and water,
Yet – its location’s hard to find.
It darts across the landscape
Fine.
It moves in seconds, the sands of
Time.
But its gratitude is hard to
Find.
Love this day for what it isn’t.
Its majesty is in your
Mind....

1. Stand in the bedroom and realize you need something that's in the kitchen.
2. Go to the kitchen to get that something.
3. Get to the kitchen and forget what you needed there.
4. Go back to the bedroom.
5. Get to the bedroom and remember what you needed in the kitchen.
6. Repeat, ad nauseum....

“After obsessively Googling symptoms for four hours,
I discovered 'obsessively Googling symptoms' is a
symptom of hypochondria.”     Stephen Colbert

LABORED BREATHING

cough is heard - a hack
that causes one to wipe brow
with thermometer
in creases of worry lines
hoping for sweat not fever

From man's tongue
flows both honey of the hive
and the sting of bees.
Many go about
telling half truths, tickling ears,
and casting stones.
The tongue,
is not the problem per se,
but a symptom of the problem.
Using self diagnosis,
many make attempts to Band-Aid
(or control) the tongue,
oblivious to the fact
that the real need
is a transplant. (change of heart)...

Emblazoned down deep in my secret eyes, 
choking on so intense a connection; 
Thoughts I am unable to verbalize 
rambling words are my only reaction; 
Lingering symptom of this infection; 
I have gotten used to breathing shallow 
sweating shivering with energy flow; 
Victim of all your sensuality; 
Devilish virus masked with a halo 
the hero of half written tragedies....

As we hurry Into the Taxi park
The taxi earlier than us is under attack

As I perceive sound and voices
None is busy around and noises

The life that you will drive
Establishes the always providence you will derive

Worthless is life and annulled
Seems all annoyed

Associates in advance your travel
Teach you not only to marvel

But to scrutinize the symptom
And attest you've been to the classroom...

Absent-minded, automatic
cyclic, circle, systematic
psycho, symptom, sick, somatic
spill the words right out my mouth.

Never-ending, contin-u-ous,
flowing, flapping, super-fluous,
lewd and lavish, misconstrued this
wretchedness which runs right out.



(have you ever been talking nervously to someone realizing at the same time that you're saying too much and should stop but can't???)...

Beware the rhymers curse, for they say there’s nothings worse
You will never ever purge it from your system
Every sentence every phrase, will, until the end of days
Turn into a rhyme, no matter how you twist ‘em
But, if you should be struck down, there should be no need to frown
You must savour every symptom of this blight
In your daily conversation show your joy and your elation
With the knowledge that your words are ever bright...

What to call it 
This feeling inside
It’s searching for weakness
I’m trying to hide

What to call it 
This feeling deep down
Its harsh and distasteful
It wants me to drown

What to call it 
This horror unseen
Heart clouded with darkness
With no trace of green

What to call it
This symptom unknown
It’s driving me crazy
Foul seeds it has sown 

What to call it
It has an ill air
I now have decided 
To call it despair...

Traveler starlight dusts 
Our color emotion departed
Ever within never dissident  
Below sordid toss assortment 
Blooms circuit substance 

Our obsessive privy throws  
Living symptom circular gaze
Before myopic oceans deep gray
Grasping worlds structure foray
By shipwrecked days estrange

In homes left untouched the many
For whom history appoints
The fill of sentry tales 
Holds purpose tenants void...

The primacy of love is 'totalmente' undisputed,
An authority of orderliness in a tumultuous society,
A powerful dose to subdue war;  
A conspicuous symptom of our world's malady.

Love 'originalism' is not 'paternalism' but an explicit form of 'maternalism',
It's not a brimborion expression nor a vacuous indoctrination,
It's not professions of some 'high-falutin' 'gran rabino',
But an absolute lifestyle of a dinkum person.

(c) 2011...
