"hassling" poems
yesterday the telephone rang non stop
and the dashed thing had me on the hop
all my time was spent saying hello and goodbye
I had to tell the person on the other end I must fly
those telephone marketers are an insistent lot
they are more pesky than a horse fly bot
not for one minute did they leave me alone
ring ring ring went the overbearing telephone
to get some peace from the telephone's hassling
I unplugged the ruddy rampant thing
one is fearful of reconnecting it to the socket
as it may well send one right off one's rocket

The cows graze in their pasture
Subservient to their master
Who doesn’t move faster
To help avoid disaster
So the cows are on their own
To deal with snow
Those all alone
Completely froze
Yet those who know
To use the warm glow
Of company that showed
Survive temperature lows
The cows used to solitary grazing
Now begin embracing
To fight cold air they’re facing
That is life erasing
While frost is lacing
The grass once worth tasting
The winter refuses to yield
As snow builds in the fields
The cows’ cohesion is revealed
As they protect their veal
And forget to steal
To connect and heal
During this ordeal
In times of inclement weather
The cows huddle together
Like someone pulled a lever
That won’t stay locked forever
So eventually ties are severed
As summer comes
The dumber numb
Thinking they won
Soaking up sun
Knowing winter is done
They divide into ones
A flow line
Of the bovine
Slow grind
Shows flies
Grow wise
With no size
They devise
To go for eyes
Cows go blind
In their mind
And cannot find
Their herd in time
Pretty soon the irritating fleas
Give them mad cow disease
As they don’t look to please
But put the good on their knees
While they’re hiding in trees
And biting with absolute ease
Seeing the absence of immunities
From their lack of community
The lost independent
Weather defendants
Become repentant
When they hear encroaching
Thunder clouds approaching
The cows become hectic
From a storm electric
Their formation eclectic
So they feel unprotected
But a fence was erected
So they can’t join the dejected
And this lonely life they elected
Is sadly reflected
The lasso angler
Hassling wranglers
Unmasked as stranglers
Bring the herd together
As they pull a lever
That’ll stay locked forever
As the cows’ heads are severed
And the horns in their head
Stick around once they’re dead
As we eat what they were fed
While they made their own bed

That's a beautiful dress. It arrived on time. Thank you very much.
I bought this dress for my upcoming prom. i was nervous about buying online, because I had no idea what the quality would be like. I was pleasently surprised when it arrived. Not only was the quality of the fabric beautiful, but the overall quality of the dress was great as well.?
The quality of the dress is unbelieveable it is a beautiful dress. If your big busted its a little tight, but its so nice on. I LOVE IT!!!! Cant wait to order something else. M y mother has bought so many things from dresswe and everything has been easy to order and get and everything is of quality. THANKS so much!!!!
I ordered my dress custom made in early April. The current delivery time was advertising "4 weeks" and it actually took 6 with a bit of hassling & stressing through emails. I ordered this dress for my 21st birthday party. When it finally arrived it was definitely impressed. A beautiful dress with such an elegant cut. I was really impressed and felt like a princess on my special night! I thank you for providing me such a beautiful dress! The color is just to die for
The most beautiful dress I've ever worn! Going to be wearing this to my engagement party, I've never been so happy with a purchase in my entire life! Really well made with lovely material, and sizing is correct, although had to have it altered slightly around the bust as the padded cups made it look odd on me, but nothing a little sewing couldn't fix. Can’t recommend this dress enough, feel like a million dollars in it! Shipping is also ridiculously fast, I live in the UK and had it custom made. So happy with this dress, everything I wanted and more!
I received my dress and when I put it on, it fit me perfectly and looked good on. The design and material are just as the picture shows. Good quality and I am very pleased. Customer service was great and it was delivered on the day that I requested. I highly recommend marieaustralia for formal dresses .Read more here:www.marieaustralia.com/formal-dresses-melbourne | www.marieaustralia.com/formal-dresses-2015

Opening wings with dreams in eyes...
U were chasing the life in the skies,
Cutting the path through clouds...
Hassling around within the crowd,
U melt me to be thyself.
Tracking the light...
You discover the knight,
Breaking the bones of grief...
U choose to feel relief,
As u melt down to be thyself.
Punching the dark shadow...
Glitters help you outglow,
Unlocking the hidden soul...
U scroll through to achieve goal,
As u melt down to be thyself.
Achieving the new bonds..
You rise thyself from the ground,
Bypass the self healing...
Crystalline body is all you feeling,
As u melt down to be thyself.

November is a month
i dread, all the marking...
all the words ..... ideas
clutter up in my head....
all the hopes and ambitions
weigh heavily on my back.
the first day, my birthday
hip hip hooray!!!
then a rushing, pell mell
downward track
of red pens and meetings
going on and on and on
planning, prepping, late night stressing
then, when not at work,
not shirking, just not working
hoping to give the brain a rest
am bombarded...
like i am ******** in cheer
...continual messages of
christmas is near....
coffee and carols,
shopping and angels
harking, harking,
joy to the world, fa al lalala...
Santa queues
truly not an Ebeneezer
but Christmas teasers
in November make me grey
around the gills
fish out of water
lamb to the slaughter
and running on empty,
always empty,
just want one day...
when the world
would stop hassling
and just go away
no end of year parties...
prentending to be hale and hearty
with all sorts of colleagues
and academic smarties
no presentations of budgets..
thinner than last
no we could not fast
this area, to be on line
no it's alright, it will be just fine
while sculling copious amounts
of cheap, cheap, nasty red wine.
no hangover from said feast...
no, you be the one to corner the beast.
no more standing with mothers and others
watching children in a god awful christmas play
and clapping and chatting while little bettsy
recieves an award for knitting a sleeve
and george gets one for adding fourhundred and forty
please, please show me the door.....
not to mention hayfever,
daylight savings and more
but all this seems trivial...
when I consider
the blight of my life...
in the stakes of annuity.
the month of November has a great heart
Movember...a charity of moustache art
has an fanatic in my big, bluff,bloke
for a month he curries and cares for the
caterpillar that grows on his lip...
a fuzzy flecked monstrosity
with the mange and a weird flip.
November a month of avoiding
the succour of contact....
with that thing,
my toes curl now
thinking of it....
tho I try not to react
(after all charity begins at home)
november november
truly you are the ***
last year he bought
the ****** thing a comb
yet in the end
you are but a month
and it seems I survive you
year after year
thank god for take away meals
and long cold beers....

crushing dabs
like Brits with ****
ragging on the braggarts
for being ********
mastering fascism
like I’m in a classroom
learning to bridegroom
and lower the boom
eating shrooms
faster than a pig truffling
feathers ruffling
feet shuffling
feeling the scruff again
as I rub my chin
and I begin mashing the rascals
and stashing the raffle wins
like at Bingo hassling
the troll doll queen
bout to bring this to a ring
and sing to all ya’ll songs
of wax and things…..

So many letters I've written you that I will never send
So many words that I have left unsaid
So many times I've tried to explain how much I regret that goodbye
So many calls that you won't answer, no matter how much I try
So many tears i've shed while you've been gone
So many songs I sing about you that you will never hear
So many kisses i've been missing
So many hugs i've been needing
So many hours i've been waiting
So many minutes I could have spent with you
So many thoughts hassling me through the days
So many shots i've been taking
So many memories I can't forget
So many cigarettes I've been smoking
So many regrets
So many hopeless nights
So many sleepless weeks
So many pills to get me up in the mornings and put me to bed at night
So many wishes that weren't granted
So many scratch offs that I lost
So many ways I see differently
So many months that have gone by without seeing your face
So many possibilities that you don't feel this way
So many doubts going through my mind
So many lies on lies on lies
So many confessions of my love for you
So many, but never enough
So many changes i've gone through, but my love never strays
So many people in this world to pick and choose
So many eyes with different perspectives
So many lips with different tastes
So many kinds of love, but I still long for your familiar face

you see just because you suffer from bad teeth and need to see dentists a lot of your time, it still can just mean you are reforming your body, like i have an infection in my mouth which is totally powerful and i am taking cephalexin every 12 hours till the capsules will run out, and if you pay attention to that, you can live longer, and i am not
saying in one life, like you need to drink coca cola to improve your cosmic energy
you need to eat junk food, because it helps you understand how healthy you are
you need to understand buddhism, right, so if you look after yourself right, without
worrying about your past health issues, you can have a healthy future life pattern
and improve the quality of your life, you see the world will be better if people didn't obsess about weight loss, and when they get an ache they say, why is god hassling me
no, the only way for people being turned into robots, is for people to understand each
other, we still have a long way to go, my dad's next life is a girl, but i reckon she is healthy because dad was healthy cosmically, you are not healthy if you think boys are better than girls but it's good to have a joke about it, that is healthy
i am on seroquel and serenace as well as this new drug, i believe in taking prescribed drugs because it helps with the future cosmically, and force me to be very fit
they said i might need to go to hospital if i have drowsy eyes, but he has to say that, because it is his job, i find out, if i take this medication by the right dose, it'll run smoothly, and athena is the god of love and war, the war on people suffering health problems and love being the idea of helping in this field of expertise

I was quite proud of the weather today.
It was better.
You know, better than yesterday.
I didn't have to tilt my head in shade for that perfect lighting.
Or settle for the insecurities of a mess.
It was that perfect.
Somewhat like those yellow limes I often confuse for that ball I use for stress.
And then there was that centered daisy thing which completely complimented my skin,
Hassling it's persuasion of confidence in a glaze
Reiterating it's point like those quins I met yesterday.
Today was just about everything, but perfect.
I went from that almost comfortable feeling, to nothing.
To nothing, when I had to imagine that cute outfit I helped her pick out yesterday...
Being ripped off, for her to be ******
I went from that warm weird feeling, to nothing.
To nothing, when she got a call...
"Hey,
Sure,
I'll be right there."
And at that point...
I realized I was simply that to her.
The piano guy.
I was quite proud of the weather today.
It was better...
You know, better than yesterday.
Today I wanted to tell her.
Although it was yesterday...
Today I wanted her to know for sure.
And suddenly...
That centered daisy thing began to shallow.
And at that point...
At that point I realized.
I was nothing.

Tender, tiny dollar bill-
you give my time such worth.
Give my life to buy a thrill
And a box put under earth.
My gravestone sits over there;
paid a pretty penny.
Manages to look so fair
Surrounded by so many.
The car I drive is so nice
For my ride to the yard
Do not ask of me the price
Lest your dignity be marred.
My golden watch is better;
Reminds of time well spent.
Paid off the hassling debtor.
Lived at work to pay the rent.
