He said that in odd years he's fat,
He can't be Olympian in that.
In years that are not,
He can't find the spot,
Or else he'd have gold by the vat.
Loved him as I wanted to not because
he 'd love me back; knew well what love was.
Did he not know, disregard is painful?
Though 'twas true feelings, but he did ignore
me all time, he's carefree; thought he'd adore.
How to accept such behaviour, it's painful.
Love is unconditional, 'twas mirage;
woeful life was forced, I relied upon
but the way he treated, it was painful.
Wished to be true to feelings; though recall
intimate talks, can't believe anymore;
won't be able to bear more, it's painful.
Thought he'd honor vows, never marked his flaws;
I's fool, his attitudes I did ignore.
Realized unrequited love painful.

Slipperier than a Greased Eel In a Vat of Astroglide
That Hillary’s sociopathic streak is a mile wide
In case you haven’t noticed, the fix is in
But her followers love her even if she’s guilty as sin
We all think she should be a woman of greater convictions
Both moral and criminal, given her total lack of friction
She’s got a layer of Teflon thicker than Gotti
And to the Secret Service, a mouth full of potty
She looks crookeder than even a barrel of snakes will
Phonier than A William Jefferson Clinton three dollar bill

It would not hurt
once in a while
make people smile
might make their day.

I believe in this. If you smile, you just might get that one person, to smile right back. :o)
Camb'dian form
Obscure and nice
Four lines precise
Dimeter each
It's kind of neat
Done light or dark
You see them spark
When you do it
Fun and easy
Every single bit
Filled of wit
Any time- anyway
So roll your dice
With this form play
Have it your way
Try it- have fun!

Take a pumpkin,
add giant wheels
crafted from steel.
Then add a door.
Find a princess,
but then make sure
she's home before
the clock strikes twelve!
