    You are so negative towards my poetry, it is terrible!
    I am not going to bother spending more time and energy trying to convince myself that this is still a worthy cause. If you want to spoil everything and anything just because you can, then I cannot stop you but eventually it will get at a point where it will stop itself. I was asked to become part of the Admin team on another forum. I didn’t want to accept it because it will consume most of my time on the net. But now I am thinking that change is good.

    I wrote another one which you might like:

    Baba black sheep,
    have you any wool,
    no no, because the farmer is a creep,
    and now I'm cool,
    and I said to him you #$%BLEEP,
    because he used his tool,
    to shave my butt and sell my wool for cheap!

    Andrew Marvell’s argument in "To His Coy Mistress,"

    Now let us sport us while we may;
    And now, like am'rous birds of prey,
    Rather at once our time devour,
    Than languish in his slow-chapp'd power.
    Let us roll all our strength, and all
    Our sweetness, up into one ball;
    And tear our pleasures with rough strife
    Thorough the iron gates of life.
    Thus, though we cannot make our sun
    Stand still, yet we will make him run.
    It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change. – Charles Darwin

    Here's to the breezes,
    that blow through the treezes,
    to lift girls skirts to reveal a spot the teazes and pleazes,
    and gives men diseazes,
    Thankou O Je.us.
    Cheers

    The Ping!
    Brain Neurons blowing thoughts into the mind
    A screen opens in front of the thinking eye
    Plans for the year ahead are scribbled in chalk

    The self flashes quotes of guidance
    Hormones stir up hopes and dreams
    Lungs reach out for oxygen filled with
    pollutants and the promise of a New Year

    Point to the stars oh human child
    Dream the impossible dream
    While slowly sliding down the pipe
    of Fears back to the dust of the Earth

    Smile its 2014
