I have lit my tenth bonfire
since I retired two months ago
this one is gorgeous like the others
a bit different
she is burning all confidential records
of children with 504 plans at my school
no one needs these copies
and I do not want them falling into the wrong hands
my principal has the originals
and I have uploaded all the 504’s into a computer system
I watch two hundred pages go up in smoke
confident they will remain confidential
the bonfire pops and crackles her appreciation
she loves cardboard and paper the best
I have tried to feed her plastic, but that has a horrific smell
So now I keep her on a strict paper diet
Many women find easy to hate strict men in their lives but displined men are always the best men on this earth.
Quote by poet
You can be a disciplined man
And being hated by some women
For few secrets reasons
Which they feel shame to tell others.
Some wives can hate their husbands
Because of controlling their lives
Which is part of their duties
As good men who care for their families.
Some women always failed to differentiate
Being married, in relationship and single
When they want so called" freedom"
In the house which can become a problem.
Don't be surprised when a woman takes
Her feelings so serious than her responsibilities,
And turn to hate some disciplined guys
When trying to show her some life realities.

Even those with account large
Do not fancy the least charge:
Men with riches as their badge
Could later on sing a dirge
Try to involve some cheap serge
“We’ve been hit with an iceberg!”
Thus, ‘Charge’ is a word quite harsh,
Its habitual users rash,
Trying their best to sound brash:
Charge’ a bit better than ‘Crash’.
At the battlefront a charge,
At a police station a charge,
For some received service charge,
After a withdrawal charge,
But worse than charge is surcharge:
Delays to phones recharge
Or some strict duty discharge.
Please, quit saying that one may be strict
And peoples movements hardly restrict.
The strict could your blood vessels constrict,
A people confine to a district:
Have the rather free into jail tricked
And forgotten while God's Time ticked.
They just have strong links: 'strict' and 'restrict',
Because 'Strict' often says 'Restrict':
A criminal's captured neck constrict...
All the folks in the district
Know that they should walks restrict
Or guards shall restrict their walks:
Make them suspend lengthened talks
Or with lengthened talk send down
To the valley of the town…
All the folks in the district
Like human lungs that constrict,
Because bronchitis is strict
And tormenting hour picked…
In an-too-strict district
No lips just funnily licked
No face with a funny streak
Or prison for a full week;
Legal redress to not seek
As lawyers have their harsh beak!
So, how like you such, free man!
Three months I’d live there and ran.
Meant enquires consequent
On ken Sampson The Eloquent
Wishing now to himself acquaint
With the conflicts that were frequent,
Where his people are domiciled,
Currently to odds reconciled,
So that he might about them speak
And The Still-Kept Hidden leak…
In the darkest drain slain body,
Not long traced to B Goodie
By some folks loved for being civil
But by their Union ruled ‘Evil’:
To all Good Remarks had sniveled
And on Grave Issues had driveled
Some see A Demon just vanquished
He wouldn’t have Swipes relinquished
Goodie’s killer is distinguished:
Has Satan’s Fire extinguished!...
Ken has The Final Picture grabbed
Slain Goodie was tortured, first nabbed!
Ken would treat not ‘Emergency
From Juvenile’s Delinquency:
This is about Unsafe District;
Every cop to wear a face strict…
