Write Wrote Written
Words go on and on
Until the end of time and after
So my heart flees after it
To the depths of thoughts
Further into and unto
The Father of infinite
Where the cool of breeze on my forehead
Gives me the Coolio vibe
Wordster paradise it is .!
Gangs can't beat
Police ain't ****
As I stay unsafe in the safety of words

Imagine a woman peeking out from the shower curtain…
Accompanying captions on the side appear
“I asked 100 women what shampoo they preferred?
The #1 answer to my survey was certain,
How’n blankety blank did you get in here?”
Managed perception creates confusion;
the picture plays a neat trick on the brain.
There was no survey, just a joke that's offbeat.
The words and the wordster are in collusion
like men who have an image to maintain.
What appeals to men is her ballyhoo.
Are they looking for shock, dismay or fear?
In the photo, she's a picture of "discreet".
"Survey" has nothing to do with shampoo,
when in doubt, turn his question on its ear -
"Why do they put directions on shampoo bottles?”
