Short Toe The Line Poems

Joe Biden is starting to whine
The Democrats won't toe the line
They can not agree
That we should all see
A politician has a spine...

Toe the line, why?
Who decides I should toe the line
Sometimes the line becomes indistinct
And fades into oblivion
So it is impossible to see where the line is...

Hey wait, that's not right you nuggets
A “toe” is a body part, “tow” is for towing
Like dragging a vehicle
Instead of by people
My understanding of English is overflowing...

Where is it written, we must all toe the line
Act like clones and worship the same shrine
Those of good cheer
People far and near
Unique as each other, raise your glass of wine...

There once was a sponsor named Brian
Whose goal was to fierce toe the line.
But then he met Nancy
who's whims caught his fancy.
Now declaring her win is just fine.

And just in case there's any doubt, this is submitted with the UTMOST of respect.
Namaste....

For God and country, swaying toe to line.
Like whispers lost upon a mighty wind.
A cadence echoes; “soldiers ‘til the end.”
Why bestow our youth upon the frontline?

Tides that rise; too must fall to sculpt their shores.
The price of Freedom is too often death.
Life devoid of Liberty; wasted breath.
American Dreams cast in souls of wars!...

My Old Man

I don’t believe in miracles
Santa Clause and such
Only wish it all were true
I wouldn’t ask for much

For if truth were only known
we all would live in fear
How close one need to toe the line
what dangers could be near

Ignorance is bliss of course
remember childhood days
My own God was called father
with no one else to praise...

The Pope came to Eire
And found millions there
But they did not care
For priests anywhere

He dealt with the nuns
And all of the puns
Regarding bare buns
And Irish squirt guns

But what of "The Church"
And those who besmirch
The rap of a birch
For those in the lurch?

The Pope says, "We're fine
And now toe the line
To forgive is divine…"
God damn filthy swine!...

Struggling with adversity
searching for diversity
Whats it all meant to be
Life in all its entirety
Just a shadow in time
Going through the motions
trying to toe the line
Just another footprint in the sand
A tiny grain in millions
Washed away by fates cruel hand
Inherited war dominions
Darkness and silence
No one can hear
confusd abhorrence
No one can feel the fear....

Night was all black.
I could not find my
hands / half-dead-

velvety ribs. I want
to rub the spikes and-
toe the line of hurricane.

The naked eye, a-roving
will search for the moon
as the superstorm was-

poised for a landfall.
To receive the wrath-
the ants will find the-

watermark and move to
higher grounds. The sea
throws up the secret of unknown.

M•any try to toe the line but somehow manage to go astray
Y•oung to old, so many, too many travel this way

H•arnessing spiritual power in this dimension is the aim and 
          goal
E•very man should be in search of salvation and the sanctity 
          of his soul
L•etting go of the ego and drawing within to draw nigh
P•rudence, faith, and prayer are required to walk with the.         
          most high...

To be on time,
We must toe the line.
Do not hurry, fret, or rush,
Or miss the plane, train, or bus.
No. Time does not wait,
But still, don't be late.
Give her due respect.
Be prompt and don't neglect.
Time cannot change yesterday;
But she can shape today and tomorrow.
Sometimes, we must make adjustments.
There are things we cannot prevent.
Moreover, it's also vital to be timely,
Because time is a bridge to destiny.

We once had a doctor called Boole
Who hated to look like a fool.
If his diagnosis was wrong
His face grew so long
It made me feel positively cruel.

When I had a rash on my brain
He thought I was going insane.
But calamine cream
Worked like a dream!
So I shall use it again and again.

Doctors have a difficult time,
When patients won't toe the line.
But we need our own voice
And to make our own choice.
We can't fit into another's design....

It was the time to say our goodbyes
To turn and walk away
We thought it was fine, not to toe the line
And we had to pay
It was the firts glance, the thought og a chance
If we got found out, well OK
Now I'm alone and sat by the phone
Wondering what to say
If I rung you, would you want me to
Or just to keep away
Were you sad, when we had what we had
But circumstances came in the way
Please let me know as I still love you so
and think of you every day...
