some guys talk big
mock, criticize and laugh at
others, God being no exception
they think they are all-knowledge,
self-born like amoeba
propel their way like paramecium
and will be reborn like earthworms
that there is no heaven or hell
that they are immune from divine
accountability
nonsense!
they live in fool's paradise
know nothing, nothing!
will they tell us if they have
ever seen the teeth of a termite,
the limbs of a snake,
the nose of an ant?

When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

To Beauty in Chains
mazHur
nothing attracts more
than beauty veiled
beauty when exposed
just loses its charm
farther deep down the skin
it's all filth and crap;
How about then
hiding behind a veil
a burqah, my love?

For I am the designated one
he who was indicated by the prophecy
the one who will lead the children of Kaw
Into a land of efficacy
This is what it looks like when I try to write a poem in less than an hour
I know what lifes about
I take what it gives, which might be doubt
I wanna take children to visit the pied piper's house
I'm lazy but I don't like to slouch
That's why my back doesn't drown down on the couch
I know of no way called the promised route
All things are like one, but not part of Tao
Or whatever word you have for destiny farther down
Flowing like a river
With beauty glowing like guenhwyvar
Idealism can be like that
It's like The Wall you must fight back
Tear it down just to get your life back
I hate poetry because most of what I write's crap
No figurative meaning I'll up-front use white crack
My metaphors suck like when your hair's in bike hats
My meter's so off but I know some trite facts
I don't like when when I'm bad at stuff so spite that
...
There, thats a bad poem, a poem with no words.
To say that literature is dying is to say that the world is dying.
" 'The most important part of poetry is structure!' one student answers. ' No! The most important part of poetry is sound.' Another retorts. 'No! The most important part of poetry is rhyme!' says the last. 'No!" Says the teacher, ' The most important part of poetry is the meaning, no structure, nor sound nor rhyme alone can define poetry, combine them all and you get meaning.'

Jubert de Schubert
has eaten too much camembert
he has so expanded his girth
he must now wear a skirt
Jubert de Schubert
has eaten too much camembert
now he is shaped like a pear
and has nothing to wear
the poet bee el pee
has eaten too much LSD
now his brain's shaped like a sponge
and his poems come out strongé [to be pronounced with a French accent]![]()
