    Top Ten Snags To Encounter When Doing Business With ‘Foreigners’

    10. Never expect anything in return. You will never see a penny.
    9. Imagine all the riches in the world. You will have to sell your soul.
    8. Guaranteed to make you happy. You will wait for ever.
    7. Eternally in your debt. You will have bad credit and end up filing bankruptcy.
    6. Risky and speculative deal. You will be working hard for the rest of your life.
    5. I don’t want to DIE! Please save me! You will never believe people fall for this one.
    4. Always think positive. You will be good as dead.
    3. Possibly the best investment in a lifetime. Your will wire your life savings to us.
    2. Don’t tell another soul. You might get the evil, ‘One-Eye’.
    1. Find another sucker. You might be next!

    First attempt at ‘list poem’ in free-verse.

    Top Ten Reasons Not To Give Money To Dirt Poor Relatives

    10. Retrieving property (such as a jewelry gift) pawned for the dire need of money.
    9. Encountering open palms extended upward to greet the receipt of cash as gifts.
    8. Loving your long lost kin folks, which include every stranger in the small town.
    7. Avoiding a slow death (such as foot amputation) by sending 24,000 pesos.
    6. Treating each other with respect, with more special treatment to the money givers.
    5. Helping those in the most need by donating $500.00 for a hemorrhoid operation.
    4. Instilling hope in your kin’s future by sponsoring the ‘smart ones’ for education.
    3. Establishing shelters with monthly support for electrical and telephone services.
    2. Vouching for business endeavors that cannot be paid back no matter how lucrative.
    1. Saving your pension and retirement funds for their burial and funeral services.

    Another attempt at ‘list poem’ combined with acrostic about dirt poor relatives in the Philippines devising credible and somewhat believable schemes for monetary aide. These examples are water-downed versions of the Nigerian 419 Advance Fee Fraud Scams.

  • 20070830-Good Ova

    I am your ‘God’ — the egg of Truth
    Female Beauty, loving fully
    Laughing loudly, crying softly
    Faithfully yours, eternally mine

    Comparing words, competing rhymes
    Sharing your truths, opinions’ crimes
    Morning Atoms, Eves of the nights
    Shadowed darkness, infinite lights

    Two thought provoking stanzas of eight syllables.

    ‘Kwer-tee’ parakeet ‘poo-poo-poo’
    Happy birds making happy sounds

    You are happy birds, up and down!

    Various poem of sounds from our feathered friends.

  • 20070830-Afternoon Poems

    20070830-03:41PM

    Come to think of ‘IT’: —
    ‘I’ is my eye with
    ‘T’ as my cross.

    I cross my eyes not to see
    Straight ahead but
    The unfocused path of
    blurriness and
    As I bear this cross,
    The path becomes straighter.

    Come to think of ‘IT’: —
    ‘I’ may have lost my way.

    20070830-03:32PM

    An awakening
    Observers observing us
    Through my window blinds

    20070830-03:28PM

    Tickle my tika
    Squeezing between my eyebrows
    Red dot laughs out loud

    20070830-03:20PM

    My golden stamp of approval
    Upon my untouchable forehead
    Fleshy eyeballs of two black dots
    By the Dark Ones, an unknown purpose
    ‘Autobot’ or ‘Decepticon’; transform and roll.

    20070830-02:58PM

    Oh my shadow – my darkest side!
    You know me well – my deepest pride.
    When I transform to love and light,
    I won’t forget — not wrong or right.

    Oh my shadow of nothingness!
    You follow me through loneliness.
    When my path ends through think and thin,
    You’re always here somewhere within.

    20070830-02:00PM

    Eagle’s feather white
    Set against the clear blue skies
    By God’s right hand

    Various poems created in the afternoon while in the waiting room of the MRI. Noticed layout of waiting room is similar to my blog entitled 20070827-Dream Times.

  • 20070830-Old Farts

    Flush out the cooties; lewd acts for booties
    Blow out the boogers; sexual poopers
    Predators display; dirty old men gay

    Vile baddies affair; congressional lair
    Shaytanic obsessed; senators possessed
    American’s blood; presidential mud

    Flaming the vile moles; political holes
    Bringing public shame and the blaming game
    Fined with guilty plea. Resign unto me!

    Another dark, political poem (of nine lines with ten syllables and internal rhymes) regarding the recent news about Senator Larry Craig of Idaho. There are many more horror stories similar to this one that goes unnoticed by the media.

  • 20070830-Dream Journal

    Both Simon and Pimon the parakeets escaped. I cupped my mouth and called out Simon. There was a tree located in the next door neighbor’s backyard. Simon flew from the tree and around my hair. I opened the door to the small white cage. He hopped inside the cage.

    ‘Squirrel-Ling’ and I walked around from right to left on this street. There were houses along this street. I cupped my mouth and called out Pimon. There was a tree on this road and out flew Boo-Boo.

    She landed on the side of the cage. As I lowered the cage to the sidewalk, she waited on the sidewalk and in front of the cage door. I opened the cage door and she hopped inside. She perched on one of the wooden perch. She looked fatter and weary around the eyes.

    We walked around to the end of the street. And we came around the block of other apartment dwellings. These units were spaced far apart and colored white.

    We continued walking into a narrow maze of strange dwellings and colorful. These seemed to be stacks of items glued together. The passage lead to a darker place up ahead.

  • 20070829-Daily Diary

    Two months of blue skies
    Clear as the baby’s bottom
    Powder puffs of sylphs

    Friday through Monday
    Flushed cheeks stained my horizon
    Baby’s blood by their spew planes

    Sweaty hot Tuesday
    Global warming hotter sun
    Dries dirty laundry

    Three weather related poems of haiku. Mostly clear blue skies in the Bay Area with one rainy Wednesday since June 2007.

  • 20070827-Urgent Notice

    A certified letter today
    Shows what current balance to pay
    Within ten (10) days have yet to owe
    From economic hardship flow!
    Raise the levy, late penalty
    Interest charges — none for free!

    Nothing real or personal
    Seize to collect from this poor gal!
    Nothing old, borrowed or blue
    Transparency of legal sue
    Nothing owned but one paid-off car
    Wishing away the jailhouse bar

    A shiny knight to save her days
    And brotherhood to whom she prays.
    With helping hand to lift her up
    And other good to fill her cup
    A special guy with her in mind —
    A robin hood among her kind.

    Another ‘last minute collection’ of three, six-lined stanzas with seven syllables. Blah!
