Top of the Cosmos
To what 'degree' is a greatness reached?
How many have sat on the top of the cosmos...
To then declare a view to bore?

When I Am Reminded
The only time I appreciate,
Having been married before...
Is when I am reminded,
That I too have had that experience.

Observed As It Is Seen
It is observed as it is seen.
However...
There are many still praying,
For a miracle...
To dilute the image of reality.

Winning Is Knowing
Sometimes winning
Is knowing
When defeat
Is unavoidable!
Avoiding defeat,
Is a game for losers.
And losers seldom win!

Qualities That Attract
You have your way of depicting reality.
And I have my way of picking you apart.
I told you we had qualities that attract.

Voting
The thought of it is nice.
And the process is encouraged.
But the activeness is gone,
And the effective of it is missing.

These Are 'My' Moments to Savor
What are you doing?
'Savoring 'each' moment.'
But why exaggerate 'each' footstep?
'These are 'my' moments to savor! '

As Only a Cuckoo Can Do
And as the cage door opened,
Fluff with feathers flew...
Back to make more obscene appearances.
As only a 'cuckoo' can do!

Calamities?
Calamities?
Yes.
Fried without the shells.
Leave the bellies,
And bring lots of tartar!
Also a dip for the chips, please!

Keep This In 'Your' Mind
Keep this in 'your' mind...
You chose me to be your competitor!
And...
I am still minding my own business,
As you compete.
