No channel skipping ..no flannel...it was so gripping…hearts melt…Pant's ripping svelte pelt and belt..stripping and whipping..the fab never drab Rishab lab..was it real..felt like I was tripping… no pipping..surreal cartwheel flipping..
Some verse about the Panto Pant curse…does traverse…like a hearse….won’t reimburse..adverse bowlers terse..things getting worse…reputations nurse…Rishab flash panache smash and grab..rehearse that ramp reverse..in his own homegrown perverse.. with only himself will converse..no fretting..go getting…record setting universe..
Now has outshone and outdone..shoves show pony Dhoni.. as the Indian man alright talisman with the gloves everybody loves with the most tons..holy moly..more three figures scores on England tours than the folklore of before..Sunny and Kohli..
Records splattered shattered..gallivanting Pant parade..cascade and cavalcade …flattered .. Rishab paddled..bowlers addled and raddled..skedaddled
Ignore any naysayer…prime sublime Pantomimes…haymaker…cocktail shaker…p**s taker…tik tok peacocker..run for fun maker…cool cat with the bat..almost indecent crimes..the Indian’s best test player and slayer of recent times..

A Lombardian young man nicknamed Stan;
delivered Amazon stuff in his van.
They didn’t pay very much
being so out of touch;
so he skedaddled back home to Milan.

Large black hairy spider on a black rug,
trod on it with a bare foot.
Did not see it, felt it though.
skedaddled over to a chair to take a look.
Yellow spider pus, stiff broken spider legs,
had to scrape it all off with tissue paper.
Flushed the gooey mess down the toilet
together with the contents of a stomach.

To become an equestrian first-class
Jerry had to learn to ride on the grass
He took off the saddle
The equus skedaddled
Poor Jerry! He thought 'bareback' meant bare-hass

The days of happiness skedaddled
And made a grimace out of the wrinkled face
Which in a drunken stupor , saddled
With the burden of desires , unlike a sage
Broke into a lugubrious psalm.
Spurs hallucinated, hampering the vision
Hitherto held the verbosity to the mind.
Brevity , the soul of the known wit and precision
Was curtailed by the curtains making him blind,
With the dead silhouette , bound to be embalmed.
An escapist the rather practical man became
Mortified by the rather inconvenient inadequacies.
Of all the epitaphs ever scripted , it was a shame
Written for one's own lifeless shell , the colloquies
In an attempt to make oneself calm.

Being Dauntless
Written: by Miracle man
1-20-2020
When younger I was dauntless,
and in thought yet remain.
But due to time passing,
things aren’t quite the same.
The times are long past,
when I would cede to no man.
If doting on intimidation,
one needed another game plan.
There have often been times,
when I have been bested.
But never before my nemesis,
will had been tested.
Now my ability has skedaddled,
and my life is most spent.
Yesteryear’s “giddy-up and go,”
has just “got up and went.”
“if you’re never scared or embarrassed or hurt,
it means you never take any chances”

Depressing Thoughts for Today
5-29-2016
With aging came a bad attitude,
The things I enjoy, I can no longer do
The few things I can do,
I have no interest in.
Little pleases me,
And my patience skedaddled at mid life.
I care less about how I look,
That’s your problem;
And more about how I feel,
That’s my problem.
And I’m helpless to change that.
I’m now a member of the two hundred stitch club,
And pain has me feeling like a bigamist.
Never envisioned myself soaking up the golden years,
But here I am.
Since this writing I’ve had major back surgery, open heart surgery, Sudden Cardiac Arrest and have a tumor on my right kidney, like I said whoope! God is good.

The Onset of Old age
Written: by Miracle Man
1-20-2019
Was when our get up and go,
Had suddenly skedaddled.
And with serious health issues,
We suddenly found ourselves saddled.
But this hasn't left us,
Entirely broke Just slightly bent.
Leaving nothing to fight over,
Has become our intent.
At death, what remains,
Those feeling entitled will fight.
Seeing our death's as a windfall,
And perhaps their birthright?

Skedaddle
Sneakily
incognito
Tip-toe
to her chamber door,
Whereupon
it was ajar,
Never ajar
was it before.
Cloak and dagger
I did intrude
Across her
chamber floor,
Thereupon
she was asleep,
Never asleep
was she before.
Bold as brass
I did inquire
If I could see
of her more,
Albeit
I was a murderer
Never a murderer
was I before.
Fearfully startled
witless rose
To find me
at the door,
Thereupon
I turned the key
Never a key
I had before.
Laid to rest
upon her breast
A dagger
she could not ignore,
There I plunged
it deep,
Never so deep
was it plunged before.
Bereft of breath
she laid there,
The wife,
the mother,
the whore,
Whereupon
I did skedaddle,
Never skedaddled
had I done before.
Sneakily
incognito
I fled
to a foreign shore
Thereupon
to live a life
Never a life
I had before.
Soldiers many
with manacles
Came a knocking
on my door,
To the gallows
where I hanged,
Never hanged
was I before.
In the fires
of damnation
Where my wife
there I saw
Whereupon
I loved her,
Never loved her
had I before.
