Her Sweet Spot
Remember that old saying, “waste not, want not”!
Well from now on, gonna save all my kilowatts
Results so far
Are quite bizarre
Ladies light up when I plug into their sweet spot...

Limerick
Breadwinner
Transcripts, Manuscripts,
Dog-eat-dog, cut-throat,
Get ahead or say
GOODBYE
To tomorrow
Who stares me down,
Menacingly it approaches.
Waste not, want not,
Waste brain, no gain,
No survival
Not cut out
To be breadwinner....

Acting Not Happy
Always pretty good at acting;
But faking it off stage? No, I’m not;
Heart on my sleeve when I’m happy;
Made up anger conceals happy,
yet accurate it’s absolutely not;
Words of clay dribble through acting;
Familiar mask, waste not want not;
Heaven forbid you make me happy
Mood swings a pendulum acting;
I’m exhausted acting not happy....

Waste Not, Want Not
I wanna be the song you sing
whenever you wake.
I wanna be the reality
within the smile you fake.
I wanna be the reason
for every breath that you take.
I wanna be the crime
behind the rules that you break.
I wanna be your rock
when your heart aches.
It seems I'm too selfish
for wanting this cake.
I'm sorry for loving you
my worst mistake....

Vignette-Iowa Democrat
Around the line at Riverbend
And off the bridge into quicksand
Raised later by many hands-
Brushed & dusted,still very neat
Back into service,a story hard to beat !
Note.
The train fell in the creek in 1891,rescue then proved in vain
Four years later it was raised frpm 100 feet deep with little damage thereto.
Waste not want not in those days!
We could learn much from this approach in this 'green' era...

Rind Divine
red meat that is so sweet
and yellow that's quite mellow
but before you imbibe, make sure black seeds are inside
from verdant fields to homely tables
to big juicers and smooth blenders
waste not, want not
how about a nice jolt of citrulline
a flow of rind divine to the bloodstream
a marvelous gift to man
pulling the pressure down and pushing the energy up
three or four generous pieces down the chute
now it's time to drink up...
