on the crest of the mountain he's high
o'er the valley below; he is nigh
to the clouds just above.
Now he stands with his love;
they wear capes. Will they soar in the sky?

If your sore end's disguised with a cape
and you must keep it on with some tape;
use the kind that will stick
to all things, coarse or slick
so you'll not be exposed when you gape.

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.

If your grape-peeling's lately exposed
showing women with you juxtaposed
you had better explain
why they're on your campaign
to do nothing as you're predisposed.

Predisposed to do nothing but sit
until you have decided to quit
then this warning I'll share
that you'd best find a chair
into which your behind will still fit.

Yes, I fit in the chair; my behind
now has contoured the seat; I'm enshrined
in an overstuffed chair
that sometimes I will share
with my grandkids, to whom I'm resigned

If resigned to your keeping grandkids
I'd suggest that your off-spring take bids
from a local au pair
and give you back your chair
ere relationships go on the skids.

Heirs' relationships can go awry
if they're dreaming of pie in the sky
but if they settle down
with their feet on the ground,
they can have some by just stopping by.

If they're just stopping by to have some
and when going, they don't leave a crumb
or a "thank you" and hug
then quite soon it will bug;
you'll believe they've just come by to bum.

If you come and bum, eat and just leave
it is not very hard to believe
that you're not welcome back
and you may suffer lack
and you may even learn how to grieve.

If you’re grieving to learn how you may
pass the test and not study a day
then you might try to cheat
but you’ll have to repeat
the whole process while other kids play

If you're cheating while other kids play
they'll discover it soon, and one day
they will throw your butt out;
you can sit there and pout,
but you'll be an outsider to stay.

Out of cider but say you will be
back in moments with more so feel free
to keep having a ball
with the weak alcohol,
it's effective inside her; you'll see.

The infection inside her will be

you'd best not keep thinking

If you're seeing someone, you'll find out
that relationships all have some doubt
as to whether or not
it is love or a plot.
Will it be playful slaps or a bout?

If you get playful slaps all about
your body and face, never pout
unless you see blood
becoming a flood;
it's then you will have no small doubt.

It's when having no doubt that you're small
and amounting to nothing at all
that perspectives should show
you have not ceased to grow
and you're close to the ground when you fall.

If you're close to the ground when you fall,
then you've likely no worry at all
about getting hurt;
there is no need to blurt,
Am I bleeding? 911 please call!

If you call 9 1 1 when you bleed
help will come at a relative speed
that depends on your wealth
not your needs or your health;
that's how this new care plan will proceed.

If you choose to proceed with all care
then you'd best have some money to spare
'cause it doesn't come cheap;
if your pockets are deep
you can even restore your sparse hair.

Weaving by spare-hair stores from the ewe
can be worn if their colors are true
but it's best, if you lack,
hair from forearms and back
will be perfect and add a curl too.
