It'Ll Be

To be or not to be
How will it be
If it shall be
Or shalt not be

So how bout a cup of tea
Watever shall be will be

TO BE OR NOT TO BE
(Apropos Of Pondering Self)

Do not doubt yourself,
Cherish your God given gifts;
Believe in yourself:
No belief in self is bad;
Refusing to is much worse:-

In Thought

I sit and I surmise lost in long miles of thought
I remiss the time of long ago
Wondering which way to navigate
Nonchalant meandering on how to debate
To be or not to be
Is that the question?

Premium Member To Be Or Not

To be or not to be that's not the question To smile or not to smile, is probably indigestion Maybe you're just happy Or it's time for a nappy Whatever the reason, my nappie beckons

Premium Member Broken

I am broken
dwindling down to nothing
once we shared passionate moments 
my mind questions the thought 
to be or not to be with you 
as we simply dispose of each other 
in this vicious cycle of life

For Me

FOR ME
I thank you for everything you have done for me
Life oscillates around our dream oh thee
Don't you know "To be or not to be"
Nothing we can do nothing we can see

Non Practising

To be or not to be
I may or not chose to be 
A rampant homosexual
Killer or sneaking thief
Heterosexual predator
A hated paedophile 
My options are quite open
Tomorrow perhaps but not now 
Maybe just a nice cup of tea!

Premium Member Nitwit To Be Or Not To Be

Nitwit, To Be Or Not To Be By Tom Wright What I heard her say was I had wit, Until she added that other word, nit. In trying to be funny, I alienated my honey, Now to be tied she’s just about fit.

Be

Be!
Be a thinker & a lover of wisdom
Be what The Supreme Being Wants you to be.
He Can Makes you whatever He Wants!
Yet, He Wants you to freely move up
To Test you! with all the things He Has Given you
To see! It's up to you
To be or not to be!

Do Not Think

Fools rush in where
Both angels and devils fear to tread.
They know that procrastination
Is the thief of time and space.
To be, or not to be
Are not questions – they’re replies
To the quintessential quandary.
Don’t think. Go by your gut reaction.

Premium Member In defense of plagiarism and AI

There is a theory that states
If you place an infinite number of monkeys
In front of an infinite number of keyboards
They will eventually write
All the great works of literature

“to be, or not to be,
That…is the gazzerninplat”

After Suicide

Her soul floated aimlessly,
death, she wondered,
will it be peaceful,
will it be calm?
She stole her own existence,
she stole her own life,
left behind in reality for her family to see,
was the blood stained knife,
and her answer to “ TO BE OR NOT TO BE!”

Its Unrest

Can you ever prove a negative,
  have you ever really tried

To show that God does not exist,
or love not verified

‘To Be Or Not To Be’
is then a half-truth at the best

Belief a claim you can’t defame
  —with logic its unrest

To Be Or Not To Be, That, Is the Gayety Question Dotting, Her Landscapes

When I was a child I thought as a child, reasoned as a child, spoke
As that a child; but when I became a man, I left childish things behind....
Too many 'I's,' we find; tis not my thing this me inside, these eyes ? Mirrors

Tell me, Utter me what comes to mind when you think of good? Sufficient, boss, satisfying, positive. Now tell me-what you think of the word wicked when it enters your state of mind frame? Unacceptable, imperfect, not good, bad. To be or not to be which word would you designate living a life of flawed.
