“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau
.
And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

Beanies...
There's a poetry test
I'm sure to pass
In Ms Rosemary Hosebury's
Poetry class
She's given us the title
"A Goddess Sublime"
Which will take no time
For the Prince of Rhyme (to do)
A GODDESS SUBLIME
If there's anything in the world
That I would like to be
It's Shirley Bassey's microphone
So she could sing to me
I know she sings to everyone
When they come to hear her
But front row seats costs fifteen quid
And I would be much nearer.
Another thing that strikes me
About being up that close
Is that I could smell her perfume
And see right up her nose
I know microphones get dribbled on
But so what, what the hell?
It's a perk of the job when it's Shirley's gob
And I'd get in free as well!
Well, "Whatever floats your boat" apparently must be The rule by which we live each day enthusiastically. My brother whips his passion out, and slips in the goat. My sister's looking for a pimp to get her a mink coat. My mother's coke-addicted and has a rotted brain. My father soaks himself in gin to help him ease the pain. The neighbors' thirteen children dance nude and uluate Their parents watch, and love to see their kiddies masturbate. Our Parish priest they say just worships little boys From whom, 'tis said, he gets the most exquisite carnal joys. But I am odd, I must confess, for me there's no excuse. I've chosen to be celebate, and live as a recluse!
I just discevered this cute item at Always on Watch. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did:
Osgood Boynton, Ph.D., Psychotherapissed said
FRIENDLY ADVICE to the DISAPPOINTED the DEJECTED, the PERPLEXED, the HUMORLESS, the DOUR, the DISCONSOLATE and the DEPRIVED:
When you're down and out, Lft up your head and shout, "SCHIFF!"
When anything displeases you, say, "SCHIFF!"
When you accidentally pour Dishwashing Detergent instead of Olive Oil all over your company salad, say, "SCHIFF!"
When you get a flat tire, and have no spare, say "SCHIFF!"
When your septic tank backs up and ruins your new bathmat, say "SCHIFF!"
When your hateful neighbor pours a box of sugar into your gas tank, say "SCHIFF!
When your 14-year-old daughter gets pregnant by a syphilitic, drug-addicted black pimp, say, "SCHIFF!
When your husband, whom you have supported while he went to Law School, fails to pass the Bar Exam –– for the FOURTEENTH time ––, and then decides to leave you to marry a rich plain Jane, say, "SCHIFF!"

It helps. It really does. BELIEVE it. };^)>
I've chosen to be celebate, and live as a recluse!
...because the choice makes ALL the difference!
...?
;P
Well, Speedt as I said,:"WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT!"
Just don't forget to remember the Titanic!

Nothing lasts except GOD. All is is ever-changing –– like the oceans.
