Long-term may exceed expectations
Especially with ejaculations
A dribble or two
May have to do
So ....... can you have a little more patience ???

We have patience, that’s part of our charm
and we’ve weathered the Mosaic’s storm
but when old folks chime in
we must chide with chagrin;
one should use anapests with this form!

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.

Now, to continue with the string!


If your long-term retirement is hurt
and you feel like you’re losing your shirt
I’d say you should have fired
the advisor you’ve hired
and then buried your cash in the dirt.

No, the dirt is no place for your cash,
and you may as well burn it to ash.
It will lie there and rot
and will leave you with naught.
Putting it in the bank is not rash!

Putting money in banks is real shrewd
but their motives are just misconstrued
for they loan out your bucks
at high interest on trucks
and the pittance they share means you’re screwed
