Premium Member Amelia Earhart's Leather Jacket

Leather jacket cloaked
upon shoulders worldly wise
together they lay
within the Pacific floor.
New Year gift to keep her dry.

Premium Member Letter With Ribbon

Letter that implies
Hidden message without words
Sealed with a ribbon
And saved in a wood drawer
Written with worldly wise words

Do we not know 
Sad pulse that sums
Our shallow show
Of bleak outcomes

So mad swirls sad
For worldly wise
As touch turns bad
For touchy vice

Troublesome Kid

He was a troublesome kid,
Who punched the others and hid
If this wasn't safe, off slid
To be of reprisals rid...

Venturesome troublesome kid,
Who pot distances from lid
And could 12:00 pm from Mid;
A Life of the Twisty Grid
A street wise worldly - wise kid,
Who torched things and asked "who did?"
Nigeria's Grid of A kid?.

Suck off Ted’s teaching grandma to suck eggs “Don’t patronise me lad,” she begs "It’s a job I can do SO much better than you Just scarper on your asses legs!" Gran whispers words I won’t repeat Ted’s blushes as red as a beet She is so worldly wise And it is no surprise This jackass won’t usurp her seat!

In Praise of Cheeses

At breakfast time, don’t give me eggs
Or pancakes or French toast;
Some coffee and a cheese-topped bagel
Is what I like most.

Gouda, Muenster, Edam, Swiss,
American or Brie;
Jarlsberg, Asiago, Jack –
They all work fine for me.

I’m not a fan of smelly ones,
And blue cheese I despise;
I guess I’m more pedestrian
And not so worldly-wise.

But still, I’d like to offer praise
To every type that pleases;
The world would be a sadder place
If it did not have cheeses.

Premium Member Genesis of Prejudice

Birth found us in this world, free and unbound, embracing all souls with carefree abandon, in aspect of playfulness, having no hidden agenda, forgiving one and all easily, epitomising blissful existence. Growing up, ego became manifest, silencing our hearts love pulsation, thus shifting into narrowness, becoming callous and crude worldly wise at the cost of stifling hearts love, now ghostly form, mere shadow of our soul. 18-June-2021

Then Leave Love and Sex

Things weren’t happening his way sex-wise
With a first lover damned worldly-wise, 
A strange second with spiritual eyes,
A third who wouldn’t lie belly-wise
And a fourth wanting, first, some big prize:
Some kind of “Can’t you see my size
Or have your eyes been telling you lies?

‘Not smart trying a fifth who’s street-wise,
Rougher, tougher, still as worldly-wise;
‘A week with her to be heard your cries.’

Then, really the wise things: to leave sex
Cancel a meeting on it with Alex.
