I’ll just Shout you Down

I’ll just shout YOU down! – I’ll just shout YOU down! our leaders aren’t talking – just wearing a frown. Logic and reason are thrown out the door, while playing trite games and keeping a score. Insults and threats are all that we see, the harsher the words – the more seems the glee. The way that they’re acting is … Read moreI’ll just Shout you Down

Great Lucky Charm

The Chiefs won again – the only one left, and I know the reason why they are so deft. It isn’t the linemen so beefy and mean, it isn’t the decibels that the crowds scream. It isn’t the game plan though smart it might be, it isn’t that field goal they kick without tee. Their … Read moreGreat Lucky Charm

Just for Me

A lapse in time since my last rhyme, the bells for rhyme just did not chime. So now I sit composing wit, but pegs and holes don’t seem to fit. Do others read this site – not much, imaginations it don’t touch. As wings they serve upon a bee, I’ll keep rhyming just for me. … Read moreJust for Me

Just Thanks

The rhymes I write are just for fun, the purpose there is really none. But just a note from one afar, I think you know just who you are. Single student – rhyming man, with lofty goals within your plan. I thank you now yet many times, your thoughtful words about my rhymes.    

It used to be Beer

It used to be beer – now it’s just cola, a change that I made now that I’m olda. Buy it in packs – just like the past, prefer it that way – the longer they last. Traded the buzz for something much more, can end standing up – not drunk on the floor. The … Read moreIt used to be Beer
