Short Wimps Poems

nothing like a good cry
you know you got it right
the ammonia filling your nose
you know you got it might
no wimps no tears just a total deluge
a cleanse of heart to meet no harm...

guys~
get a grip
don’t be wimps
it’s not like
you’re being asked
to suit up for war

stay indoors and let this pass
stay out of the way of
brave people doing their work

Lose antennae?  I’m a beetle!
Not one bug in Aleghenny
(at least, none you’ll ever meet’ll)
lose antennae.

Luck with chicks? I won’t have any!
Directionless, centripetal,
wireless wimps are ten a penny!

What now? Curl up? Adopt the foetal
position? Move to Kilkenny?
No proud pest in any street’ll
lose antennae.

Go after the one who loves you,
And leave the one you think you love,
The former will surely please you,
And help you to keep your head above,
The latter will simply damp you,
And push you into the unknown to dive
For her satanic wimps and fame,
You crazy fool, she will drive,
You and how many men like you,
Were stuck to get out safer and alive?...

What power does the devil weild
To use God's armor and the shield?

Say no to all the devil's tempts
Or else might become plain wimps!

The power of the Holy Spirit
To have the Word; I want to hear it!

Always bending to the truth
Praise the Lord and keep your youth!

Keep the faith; have no doubt
Unless  you want to be kicked about!

And in you heart be not a fool
Jesus is the only rule!...

We do not send our sons to college
to become followers of the Buddha,                        
or to seek any ancient,  spiritual path
that might lead them to themselves,
we prefer their windy, notions  of God
up there in the air somewhere,
so they can get on with the business
of cleaning up our mess down here !
They have no time for contemplation
or what is called, true meditation,
enlightenment is for wimps !
Not real men  or chimps !...

Advertising has us in it's wrappers
here's the bad stuff ~ here the clappers,
it seems the product needs the jabbers
like a potato chip ~ the grabber!

but for the quaintness of the blabbers
I could not focus ~ or react thus
now here's a cute phrase ~ DIPPLE DABBERS
they're not like "p r i n g l e s" ~

They're just "ADAPTERS"!



Note ~  Hi Mark Pringle (our poetic benefactor) Had to say something that could
separate the wimps from the "snappers!"...

Hundreds of hours for a moments exposure,
When so many doubt you passion lifts helps composure,

Make sure shop looks fit, 
nice and neat,
Bottles straight, 
service cant be beat

Customers walk in
always greeted with JOY
Go the extra mile
No strings attached or extra ploys,

40 hour workweek?
Haha, that's for wimps,
Following a dream makes happiness,
That's a hard concept to grip

Financial stability,
At some point it hits,
The Pros always manage,
They tread along with the grit...
