When the universe started with a bang
and when God and the angels sang
one of the sparks that flew
must have been destined to become you

A Marine
We sleep so warm, in our bed we lie
While a Marine is out there, ready to die
To die for his country, to keep it alive
A Marine is there, to take the dive
Christmas comes, here we are
While a Marine sits in his foxhole way a far
We open presents, in the Christmas tree light
While a Marine on the front, pushes on the fight
Here we sit, eating a Christmas feast
While a Marine dies fighting the beast
Here we are, not having to hide
All because of that Marine, who had fallen in pride
I thank you Marine, Semper Fi

Charge of the Light brigade
Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
`Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns!' he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
`Forward, the Light Brigade!'
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Some one had blunder'd:
Their's not to make reply,
Their's not to reason why,
Their's but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.
Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre-stroke
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death,
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.
When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wonder'd.
Honour the charge they made!
Honour the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred!
-- Alfred, Lord Tennyson

On Truth
The only truth out there,
Is the truth that's yours,
And there are no others,
All is perception
And truth is nothing but
It is the truest truth
That nothing is true,
We all live in the Cave,
And watch the shadows
Dancing on the cave walls
And, yes, my truth is false
And your false is truth,
All is perception, see,
The way I see and
The way you see differ
You lie with every breath
And I'm always wrong,
Because there is no right
And there is no truth
But yours and mine, see?
***
On Laughter
Laughter is a busy signal,
Your mind's external protest
To an absurd situation,
When everything confuses,
And nothing fits the established
Parameters of your life
Humour is the human response,
Appreciated, revered
By those who don't understand it,
And lacking comprehension
They learn to love it,
And to love absurdity
***
SYMPTOMS OF MADNESS
In the fields of bitter decision,
Where the red flowers blossom sadly,
Between metal and flesh there is collision,
The call goes out for the reaper's scythe
Life and death dance in the sick balance,
The desire for both burning and raging,
In the throes of the end there is valiance;
It is cold comfort for the grey faced fallen
And what is left but ashes in the wind?
Glory fades in the grimness of time,
It salves not the wounds of those who've sinned,
Who have naught now but the fruits of fate
Their suffering is the symptom of madness,
Dark and calculated and not really their own,
The prevailing thought is one of sheer sadness,
For the heroes of unnecessary follies.

The cat
The cat shat on my mat. Then spat in my hat. What's up with that?
And of course the classic:
Ode to a Goldfish:
My wet pet.

A disgusting young man named McGill
Made his neighbors exceedingly ill
Because of his habits
Involving white rabbits
And a bird with a flexible bill.

The higher the mountain...
The greener the grass
The younger the woman...
The tighter the ass
The older the woman...
The tougher the skin
The longer the pecker...
The quicker it's in
:D

There was a man from France
Who waited ten years for his chance
Then he blew it.
