When you feel that your aim is top-notch
so there’s no need in grabbing your crotch
to snow-write when you pee
in fine calligraphy
or proof-read for there’s none who will watch.

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.

If you constantly peer at your watch
while you're paying for groceries with cash
you'd best care for your wallet
or a thief may befall it
and your carefulness notches a blotch.

Notch a blotch? I’m not sure what you mean
for the way that I pay’s never green.
Encrypted debit cards
keep me safe from retards
and the bank keeps my credit score clean.
