    • Mosquitoes

      It's been raining quite a bit of late, and the things that breed in brackish water have taken flight. How they find me is a mystery, perhaps some subtle gas I exude. In any case, to them I'm nothing more than tasty food. They reconnoitre the...

      The Clock of Man

      The cavemen kept a different clock,They lived by sun and moon.They slept when darkness filled the sky,And woke again too soon. There was a rhythm in their days,They did just what they needTo hunt, to love, to rest, to live,To...

      • This reminds me of Frank Zappa and George Carlin quotes:
        Zappa: As long as you’re just smart enough to do a job and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you’re gonna be alright.

        Carlin: they prefer “obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork.”

        Great rhymes in this Peter.

      peace and anti peace

      A quiet morning,A cup of tea,A gentle breeze,And I am free. A birds sings,A lovely tree,A dog barks,And I am free. Somewhere in this quiet space,A monster hides away,Eat it must and so it does,Reveal its tortured face. The mind begins,The chatter...

      • Okay, mon frere, my competitor, I see you have entered this Morning Coffee contest. Yours is lovely, then brutal, and in the end, bleak. Mine is cute, brutal, and in the end, funny. But mine has a secret ingredient: Coffee. Oh, I know, the rules say coffee OR tea are the liquids we honor — but MINE is COFFEE, and COFFEE is in the name of the contest, so I WIN! >THWEETT< (THAT'S A CARTOON inspired spitting action) So I win! hahahaHA! (that's a sarcastic laugh) Beside, Mine is about a cat and no one can tell a cat it's a loser and not be despised the rest of his life. Of course you can quit now (he said slyly) and save yourself the embarrassment of losing to a cat! (notice how I made the cat both powerful AND weak! How clever! Bonus points! Nice work though, BDB(P)
