In Between

in between the monotonous pages
of this book of life

some dog ears are inserted
the red tassels protruding like a tongue

saying nothing
not even some slips of the memories

within are the serious
delicate matters such as incessant wars

of mankind and the impulses of greed
i scan the pages till the end

i have not seen such chapters as giving in
to humanity

that innate goodness, i hurry to find it
not even in the appendix

The church, inserted and active in human society and in history, does not exist in order to exercise political power or to govern the society.

Alliance - in international politics, the union of two thieves who have their hands so deeply inserted in each other's pockets that they cannot separately plunder a third.

There was an Old Person of Ewell,
Who chiefly subsisted on gruel;
But to make it more nice
He inserted some mice,
Which refreshed that Old Person of Ewell.

That we find a crystal or a poppy beautiful means that we are less alone, that we are more deeply inserted into existence than the course of a single life would lead us to believe.

My 2005 calendar we actually did a shoot in Lake Las Vegas. Since I had requests do some swimwear and athletic shots we tried them and they came out good so we inserted them into the new calendar.

You Were Arrested

Inserted,
Sexually assaulted!
But other young girls reported your act in the village;
And subsequently you were arrested.

Intact,
A portion,
Massive,
To the torch!
And the 14-year-old girl was there to identify you to the chief.

Eventually I found it had been working all along-but didn't show anything on screen until it had the first full page of text. I inserted 30 new lines, and suddenly my toy said 'hEllO woRlD'. An hour later I understood alphabet shifting rather better!

What.?

Made a normal call,
To the hole in the wall.
Card was inserted,
Pin punched and waited.
‘Card held', screen stated,
Withdrawal was belated!
On the screen line,
‘Card not withdrawn in required time'!
"Bloody What"!
Was ‘BEADLE' about.?

Slip Disc

at C-6
and C-7
the numbness is
far beyond
the real cause, it spreads
at the tip

and you are so confused,
things are not working well,
and the flesh and nerve swell,

it is not a plane or a place
not a car

there is the bamboo inserted
between

your spine surrenders.
