Arrogance and Ignorance
Arrogance and ignorance
Are two deadly ingredients,
Which are part of the menu
Of disaster; these are déjà-vu
Moments.
The aforementioned elements
Are destroying our society.
Intolerance is a whipped-cream,
Which is embedded in a toxic frosty steam
That multiplies the efficiency
And the potency of such an epidemic.

Break up Before Valentine’s Day
It is wonderful that you unilaterally
Decided to split up with me
Before Valentine’s Day
I am elated to make the following announcement:
The cake will be shared with my friends
The chocolate will be given to my cats and dogs
The candles will be donated to the church
My lovely mother will receive two bouquets
Of flowers and tomorrow morning
I will place three of your twelve roses
On my beloved father’s grave
And yes, we will have a blast without you.

It is Inhumane…
It is inhumane for a man or a woman
To think that he or she can own another person
It is ungodly for such a monster to fathom
That he or she can own the Kingdom.
In the eyes of the Creator
All men and women are created equal.
Belittling or bullying another creature
Of the Almighty is an abominable horror.
It is sinful to inferiorize one another
We are all the offspring of Mother Nature.
We are all related by the air
That we breathe and by the spirit in our soul.

Rien est éternel
Les menteurs, tricheurs
Et faux prédicateurs;
Tous mourront;
Les tigres, léopards, lions
Et moutons;
Tous disparaitront.
Le mensonge est passager;
Seule la vérité, la séduisante vérité
Est éternelle,
Au pays des chandelles.
Les faux prophètes,
Au dernier destin,
Seront vus comme des crétins;
Comme des sceaux sans tête.
Croyez-moi, si vous voulez;
Le mal est temporaire,
Comme le mensonge est éphémère;

Everything Changes
The flowers
The hours
The seasons
The reasons
The dirty pennies
The sweet cherries
The sour grapes
The naughty apes…
Everything changes
When one has no change
The ranges
The fringes
This is strange
Everything changes
The birds
The nerds
The smiles
The styles
The cries

Women are The Best
Woman, Femme
Mujer, Mama
Soul, Ame
Fleur, Flora
Life is beautiful
With so many other wonderful
Languages
Throughout the ages
Women continue to be
The reasons why we are alive
I gave all women 5/5
For their external
And their internal
Beauty
They come under different name
At the end of the day, they are all the same

Alleluia! And the Birds Were Cheering
The trains were coming
And it was impossible for them to stop.
The birds, sitting at a perfect spot,
Were beside themselves; they were chirping
Throughout the entire scene,
Behind the dark screen,
Where you and I hit the highest notes.
Yes, indeed, we reached the very top
Of our unconsciousness without smoking pot,
With sparkles in our eyes, amidst the ceremonial smokes.
Alleluia! And the birds were singing.
We had the best moment of our lives.
We sang, moaned and enjoyed countless dives
In the pool, under the cool breeze of spring.

JV (Juvenile Valentine)
It is fascinating to witness
This celebration of love
Where little school girls
Are lovingly dressed in red and pink
The flower petals gleefully decorate the ice rank
Little boys bought multicolored faux pearls
For their little classmates
The Kindergarten class is full of joy.
Love is in the air
Everybody is agreeably smiling
Spring came early this year
February is behaving
There is no snow, no black ice
No rain, albeit there is a blue sky
The lily flowers are fresh and nice
The children are reciting poems of happiness
Today is a beautiful Valentine’s Day!

Ne M’embrasse Pas
Laisse-moi t’embrasser, Mignonne
Les colibris chantent, les cloches carillonnent
Mignonne, laisse-moi te maquiller
Ce soir de tendres et doux baisers.
Laisse-moi plonger dans le bleu de ton ciel
Laisse-moi déposer la couronne d’arc-en ciel
Sur ta chevelure légèrement parfumée.
Mignonne, je veux t’admirer
Te charmer et t’asperger
Jusqu'à la première lueur du soleil.
Ne m’embrasse pas, laisse-moi t’embrasser
Les coqs chantonnent, le matin est déjà présent
L’hiver est parti, on est au printemps
Laisse-moi t’embrasser, laisse-moi t’aimer.

Red Neck's Confirmation
Nice speech
Rice pudding
Corn dish
Red herring
Total chaos
Isaac passed
Short memory
Wishful thinking
Voodoo economy
Let them sing
Let them crave
To the grave
Under the bright
Spotlight.
Bad dream
True lies
Rotten pies
With whipped cream
All over
