Why waste three short words
when you can stretch them way out...
No words more pleasing:
"Yes, I want to spend the rest...
Just an old man on the beach
staring out into the waves...
So very jealous
til she saw the backscratcher...
Had I wanted, I could have stayed the course
deliver the ultimate win-back to halt the divorce...
Events don’t define who a person is;
what happens in his life merely relates...
Old Glory is smartly marched down the aisle
when the opening ceremonies start...
No lamp will ever
house a genie, even so...
He is the watcher of life
the cosmos rewards him...
[“Your mistake is you tell the king what he can...
- Sir Thomas Moore to Cromwell, A Man For All...
Catch the falling glass
to discover who I am...
Such a melancholy tune she dances;
the piano plies chords plaintively...
