Somebody wrote "acurate" And that seemed not quite right I then responded to the mate So that he may gain insight: "It occurs to me that the accurate way To write "accurate" is with recurring "c" ." My friends will most likely hang me, nay, I'm confident they're gonna find something worse for me... But I liked the tongue-twister well And in this sense, Knowing I will burn in hell, I added "That was a neat sentence"...

Tongue-twister
With the future ahead and the past behind, It's safe to say I've got a lot on my mind. All the things I've said and the things I'll do Swirl around my brain like a twister passing through

Storm in my head
Timothy Tolliver Tines Taught tax topics twenty times Touting tax tips he tried Till terribly tongue-tied Twisted tongue tending to twine

Feel like the time's running faster, Life's that long tongue twister.

What's this rush?
All but still Wheat wavering in the distance, shivering in anticipation Animals hide away, tucked in the safety of hideaways, holes, and orifices Humans crouch underground, waiting Hours pass A lone alarm shouts across the land "This is an emergency. I repeat, an emergency warning" So loud that those below, closer to hell than ever before, clutch their ears For they are ringing from the vibrant sound waves stretching across the fields A slight change in wind directions A little bit of motion Begins the devastation A lone inverted triangle appears Seemingly hovering, inches above the ground Circling its prey, before it gorges itself Endless cyclic motions, vacuuming everything in its path Houses, barns, plants fly Tugged from the attraction to the ground to the sky Engulfed by the tornado That winds down a path of destruction On a whirlwind high Drunk off of its power Invoking pain for no reason, except that it can Land ripped to shreds Houses taken and tossed miles and miles away Barns slingshotted across the American countryside And the deaths Oh the deaths Those who thought they could wait it out Survive again once more Those who tried to chase the twister Mesmerized by its hypnotic dance Those who were in the wrong place at the wrong time Oblivious to their preventable fate When the humans emerged From their underground bunker They found a land left ruined Wiped blank of human development With that they shed tears Watering the fertile lands As the tornado wrecked havoc It brought a rebirth A chance to start again fresh

There really isn't anything new On this year's Christmas Giver Menu. First we have the 'Accidental Insulter ' Who needs to hire, a clever gift consultor. While handing you a gymnasium voucher, Turning your emotions from 'sweet' to 'sour'! Insults dressed up as compliments are nothing new, But still,  Cuz, it's a bit hard to chew! Next in line is the 'Relentless Re-gifter' With telltale signs on my "new" game of Twister, Footprint stains and greasy hand marks, My goodness, my fury is starting to spark! "Do you love it? " She asks. "I knew you would! " She was feeling heroic like Robin Hood, Passing me that tired looking parcel, I wanted to fling that **** gift right back to the castle! I thought to myself, "Hey there Squire! Your ****** gifts just aren't my desire!! " Will I fret about this gift?  Not one bit, I'll just re-wrap it, re-gift it and, Give it back to them next year! The message, I bet, will be loud and clear. "The Cheapskate"! Oh, what can I say here? It's the same lame excuse year after year! Buying gifts, eluded his 'plan', He was far too busy, getting his tan. Gifts to him just didn't matter, As long as there was a lobster on a platter! "The Handmade Lover" has a Life affirming talent making, But that 'Floral cushion cover collection, I fear, by now,  is OVERTAKING!!! The "Gift Certificate  Easy Roller", Forgot you were plus five and a stroller, Smiles smugly,  as they hand it over, I'd need more luck,  than a four leaf clover, Taking them all in to get my nails done, Doesn't feel like a barrel of fun. So, in future to avoid this mad, crazy dash, I'd love to receive some COLD HARD CASH!! Now, nothing makes me feel more nauseated, Than "High Perceived Value packaging". "It's totally overrated! " But I take courage in the "One Who Knows Me Best" Their presents always outshine the rest! "Merry Christmas to one and all! " I hope that Santa heard your call, "H-E-L-P!!! " 1 Nov 2018

Frayed to the touch Your little electric shocks, Wind me up And spin me round. Dizzy on nothing I stumble to the floor Falling deeper down. This emotional twister Sweeps me off And dumps me right-side up. Without a brain, and My fancies out of control, Well, my darling, I’m afraid I’ve lost and I’m fraying right before your eyes

Whether one would wish well, Well wishing with water, When writing wrong words, Would weaken another, I sadly suggest, A short sentence sees sun, Sometimes silly sounds, Start slowly with one.

Tongue Twister!
Time is never measured by seconds Nor by how many years passed Luck is too wild to catch And love can be easily crashed When I'm just an oblivious kid Waiting for Christmas that never lasts Breeze is a sign of good times to come Unless winds grow into a twister No matter how sweet the water is When it reaches the sea it becomes a blister I wish this year to have a warm heart For this life is a waste if it's all just winter

*******
an oncoming twister. disaster? you know, that thing people warned you about. a flash of lightning and a thunderbolt. strong gales that blow you away. the weather report has already warned you to escape while you still could. but even if you should, you didn't leave. then, you get caught up in the storm. the strong passion that swept you off your feet; the violent explosion of fiery and icy emotions meeting. then suddenly, the tornado that was your love affair passes. disappears; like nothing ever disturbed the peace. you are scared: you have been caught up in the twister all your life. the sudden calm seems ominous -- is this an oracle given by the heavens? suddenly you wished you were caught up in a disaster of another kind.

TWISTER MIND
*She is a breeze, gently wafts in, in the fiery climes she quickly transforms, arousal of passion makes her a whirlwind fierce, her spirited twists and turns were beyond prediction her predilection to dominate becomes so insistent she turned to a twister had an unrestricted run the giant redwood was uprooted in no time*

Her hidden prediliction
Captain Scarlet Had a weakness for harlots Who always wore scarlet as well. This could sound The death knell For the show Thundered Gerry. It's so deleterious I'm deadly serious Less of the hoes And more Thunderbirds Are Go. Captain Scarlet's Favourite starlet However Was no harlot Even though she always wore Scarlet as well But it was quite difficult to tell That she was not so Even if one was very clever. Unlike Bobby Shafto.
