Ode To An Ocelot
Not a lot of ocelots
are seen in the day
they prefer the evening
or the night
if an ocelot you're hot to spot
altho' it's quite a long shot
an ocelot you want to sight
you may even hit the jackpot
if you do it right
all you've really got to do
is switch off the light

Switch of Tables
You taught me how to lock the door and turn off the lights.
You taught me how to use a gun just in case someone broke in to fight.
You told me to protect my brothers,
My mom,
My family.
But what you didn’t teach me was,
who would be on the other end of the gun.
I wouldn’t

Uncle Spelunker
Uncle was a spelunker
drove to the caves
in his clunker
(it was quite the junker)
without a sound
he sunk underground
pitch black as night
and on his hat
a bright white light
(the switch it was waterproof)
to see which stalagmites
might reach the roof
where stalactites
clung on tight
unafraid of bats
flitting around
never flunking
Uncle loved going down
but sorely and sad to say
on one of those getaways

The Switch
The Switch
Now and then, I look
Between thoughts of
Happiness and Pain
Now and then, I look
Finding, The shadows
Are more in view
My path meanders
Between restlessness
And peace
Frequency has increased
Opportunity… Peace

Switch
I think I am getting soft
I used to hold myself aloft
I came in from outside
Where I prefer to hide
This old dude
Do not mean to be rude
I came out of the woods
Cause that is my hood
Heard this moaning sound
There was this old man lying on the ground
I knelt down at his side
I can see his

Dead mans switch
Andrei has an art trove..He's containing in a stronghold
Much beauty shares this grim same, with acid thats stored
With one aim.!
Molodkin's at the cutting edge' in the drive to remove the
Machevalin wedge.' Of prison for a hero' a true Aussie
Who we all know!
Julian who had a go' against lies and accusations flow!
Assange is held in belmarsh..!

Switch On Warm Fronts
Uncommon Sun frisks mercury— heat's blight
On Winter's frame around tree trunks and boughs,
Shrieking frost shattered— melts in her tears, rights.
Atypical thaw for this season's height,
Where my mime yet waits to move for the clouds;
Uncommon Sun frisks mercury— heat's blight.
While setting back at the set of twilight—
My heart's glassy soil's whiff— portrayals ploughed,
Shrieking frost shattered— melts

The switch; no carrot'
House of commons, Quebec i think,? questions and
Odd answers; the air waxed thick..up to point..' debate
Was staged, till the veil of control, almost got frayed.'
Yet oppression was to carry this bout' the speaker flipped
And switched it out, on the un-reigned shouts, a little grim?Yet a smile indeed he wore, above the sober; gown of..

An On and Off Switch
Be it sunny or cloudy
The weather determines my mood
On a bright sunny morning
My mood is upbeat and cheery
And conversely on cloudy days
My mood is sombre and sad
I really wish this weren't true
I see people every day wearing big smiles
And I wonder if they have down days like me
I assume myself to be an average joe
But

Sometimes, it sounds your liking,

Switch
Sometimes , someday.
Somewhere.
Somehow
Can't reach a star
Maybe you should find a taller ladder
Spread them wings and fly
Wings got clipped
People bring you down.
Time rust that armor.
Wears your heart out before it's time.
Smile. Only you can make yourself keep going when all signs lead to a dead end.
Sometimes you have to back track to find
