Clerihew III

Karl Marx
Always barks.
Even when he lay in a grave,
He found there was still a day to save.

Simples

Simplicity is a complex plaything.
How to make one chord ring
Like a thousand bells chime?
How to make length a crime?

A Brave Man

A brave man once stood alone
On a wet, cold cobbled stone.
He proclaimed a truth monotone
And now this man is gone.

Limerick No. 12

A man used to like looking at a duck.
So much so, he began to call it Buck.
He was shocked
His world rocked,
When he saw the naughty thing ----

Listen!

Ah, listen! For I have something amazing to say!
Let all the whispers and attention die down,
And let all others keep their thoughts at bay.
Listen! Proclaim it in every single town.
These words I am about to speak will fascinate,
Emancipate and manipulate all your senses.
All your worries will flee and eradicate,
Words that will give your mind new lenses.
Come! Come closer to this humble stage,
And find a truth that will intoxicate the mind.
Such that can not be written on a page,
Such that no novel or text could bind.

Don't promise something you can't keep,
You might find the drop may be to deep.

Hand-Made Day

There is nothing that could say
Something that would make me pay
For that diverse, cute, little array
Of my hand-made day.

In Glasgow

She doesn't seem to find much sun, in Glasgow.
Instead a handsome gun, in Glasgow.

There is little a man really needs
When he finds some fun, in Glasgow.

There are many an ancient blade,
That made it's enemies run, in Glasgow.

You know where the nearest hospital is?
Someone's beating the battle drum in Glasgow.

Haiku II

Every syllable
In the English language
Given scrutiny.

Clerihew II

Charlie Sheen
Had never been
To a place where no one knew his name,
Since he tweeted them before he came.

Holiday

Sometimes things begin with a planned end,
Without necessarily considering the next bend.
And when circumstance draws it's ugly head
Then reluctance can find it's homestead.

Perseverance finds a nemesis in deserved rest.
Simple friend of man can not always be to his best.
Endeavours may loose the thrust on which they're built,
But some may return if amply motivated by guilt.
