This little man that I know with money in his sockets and routine in his pockets has self proclaimed that he is a tight *** When I envision a *** such as this, I imagine a bundle -- of securely aggregated, perfectly sharpened number two pencils. The businessman just shy of adulthood and too tired to remember –even the beginning of his of disclosure, denied his struggle to acclimate a multifarious lifestyle, appropriately suggested in the form of a triangle, and a circle, both of which embody polar opposing adaptations of humanistic routine. The two shapes: The circle, denies the break in motion by imposing a constant cycle of diligent compression, there is no room for pause only steady flow and relentless drive. This influence of life impression slows down the heart, body, and soul while speeding up time. This particular commitment accommodates the dry colorless beings that embrace and accept boxed imprisonment. Traditionally, the triangle denotes rhythmic patterns that elevate and drop to a point in which imposes a healthy reflective pause: progression, reflection, balance. As stated, as a provincial approach, a regular triangle flat on its base, peaking at the top represents a healthy, solid life routine. In contrast, the triangle can be flipped upside-down introducing an entirely new dynamic, composed of flat-lined monotony, tapered off to a regressed realm of destruction, regret and disorder. Despite the uniqueness of the standard triangle model to the man in question, it is important to compare the negative reflection, for it applies to the entirety of this investigation. We used to be lovers, he and I. We shared my giant pillow-top that I bought on the black market for a meager two-hundred fifty. -- A mere steal at that rate. We occasionally exchanged ideas, mainly about ethical concerns related to globalization and the environment. I attempted to give him a cooking lesson once, but that failed, indefinitely. The bust was not my doing, but simply, a great disinterest on his part; or better yet an inability of not being better than me at something. Everything has gotten so crowded.

On Turning her up in her Nest with the Plough Wee, sleekit, cow’rin’, tim’rous beastie, O what a panic’s in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi’ bickering brattle! I *** be laith to rin an’ chase thee Wi’ murd’ring pattle! I’m truly sorry man’s dominion Has broken nature’s social union, An’ justifies that ill opinion Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor earth-born companion, An’ fellow-mortal! I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve; What then? poor beastie, thou maun live! A daimen-icker in a thrave ‘S a sma’ request: I’ll get a blessin’ wi’ the lave, And never miss’t! Thy wee bit housie, too, in ruin! Its silly wa’s the win’s are strewin’: And naething, now, to big a new ane, O’ foggage green! An’ bleak December’s winds ensuin’ Baith snell an’ keen! Thou saw the fields laid bare and waste An’ weary winter comin’ fast, An’ cozie here, beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell, Till, crash! the cruel coulter past Out thro’ thy cell. That wee bit heap o’ leaves an’ stibble Has cost thee mony a weary nibble! Now thou’s turned out, for a’ thy trouble, But house or hald, To thole the winter’s sleety dribble An’ cranreuch cauld! But, Mousie, thou art no thy lane In proving foresight may be vain: The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men Gang aft a-gley, An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain, For promised joy. Still thou art blest, compared wi’ me! The present only toucheth thee: But, oh! I backward cast my e’e On prospects drear! An’ forward, tho’ I canna see, I guess an’ fear!

Now you're gone And you’re gone for good So I’ll try not to miss you But I’ll cry if I would It’s been a year and half And I’m still not over you Even listening to songs Reminds me of You were so different My right kind of wrong Though you are a mess It’s still you that I long You never will be my perfect But that's not *** I require Because I accepted you for whom you are A cheat, a kid, a lair Everything around me Somehow links up to you This shatters me into pieces An leaves my eyes with dew Why do you have to go? Why can’t you stay with me? I can’t live without you Why can’t you see? I promise to give it all Only give me a second try Whatever you want will be done This time I won’t make you cry It’s still your call in the end If you want to stay or want to go But if you want me I’ll be there I just want you to know I can wait for you forever I’ll be by your side when you need me You got away by mistake And so if you want to get back I am and will always be ready

ON SEEING ONE ON A LADY’S BONNET AT CHURCH Ha! whare ye gaun, ye crowlin ferlie! Your impudence protects you sairly: I canna say but ye strunt rarely Owre gauze and lace; Tho’ faith, I fear ye dine but sparely On sic a place. Ye ugly, creepin, blastit wonner, Detested, shunned by saunt an’ sinner, How daur ye set your fit upon her, Sae fine a lady! *** somewhere else and seek your dinner, On some poor body. Swith, in some beggar’s haffet squattle; There ye may creep, and sprawl, and sprattle Wi’ ither kindred, jumpin cattle, In shoals and nations; Whare horn or bane ne’er daur unsettle Your thick plantations. Now haud ye there, ye’re out o’ sight, Below the fatt’rels, snug an’ tight; Na faith ye yet! ye’ll no be right Till ye’ve got on it, The vera tapmost, towering height O’ Miss’s bonnet. My sooth! right bauld ye set your nose out, As plump an’ grey as onie grozet: O for some rank, mercurial rozet, Or fell, red smeddum, I’d gie ye sic a hearty dose o’t, *** dress your droddum! I *** na been surprised to spy You on an auld wife’s flainen toy; Or aiblins some bit duddie boy, On’s wyliecoat; But Miss’s fine Lunardi!—fie! How daur ye do’t? O Jenny, dinna toss your head, An’ set your beauties a’ abread! Ye little ken what cursed speed The blastie’s makin! Thae winks and finger-ends, I dread, Are notice takin! O, *** some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as others see us! It *** frae monie a blunder free us An’ foolish notion: What airs in dress an’ gait *** lea’e us, And ev’n Devotion!

O were my Love yon lilac fair, Wi’ purple blossoms to the spring, And I a bird to shelter there, When wearied on my little wing; How I *** mourn when it was torn By autumn wild and winter rude! But I *** sing on wanton wing When youthfu’ May its bloom renew’d. O gin my Love were yon red rose That grows upon the castle wa’, And I mysel a drap o’ dew, Into her bonnie breast to fa’; O there, beyond expression blest, I’d feast on beauty a’ the night; Seal’d on her silk-saft faulds to rest, Till fley’d awa’ by Phoebus’ light.

O Were My Love Yon Lilac Fair
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face, Great chieftain o the puddin'-race! Aboon them a' ye tak your place, Painch, tripe, or thairm: Weel are ye worthy o' a grace As lang's my arm. The groaning trencher there ye fill, Your hurdies like a distant hill, Your pin *** help to mend a mill In time o need, While thro your pores the dews distil Like amber bead. His knife see rustic Labour dight, An cut you up wi ready slight, Trenching your gushing entrails bright, Like onie ditch; And then, O what a glorious sight, Warm-reekin, rich! Then, horn for horn, they stretch an strive: Deil tak the hindmost, on they drive, Till a' their weel-swall'd kytes belyve Are bent like drums; The auld Guidman, maist like to rive, 'Bethankit' hums. Is there that owre his French ragout, Or olio that *** staw a sow, Or fricassee *** mak her spew Wi perfect scunner, Looks down wi sneering, scornfu view On sic a dinner? Poor devil! see him owre his trash, As feckless as a wither'd rash, His spindle shank a guid whip-lash, His nieve a nit; Thro ****** flood or field to dash, O how unfit! But mark the Rustic, haggis-fed, The trembling earth resounds his tread, Clap in his walie nieve a blade, He'll make it whissle; An legs an arms, an heads will sned, Like taps o thrissle. Ye Pow'rs, wha mak mankind your care, And dish them out their bill o fare, Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware That jaups in luggies: But, if ye wish her gratefu prayer, Gie her a Haggis

Address to a Haggis (By Rabbie Burns)
even the arm of a stranger would be could be better than the *** of sheets that isn't warm not alive just a sock that slipped out of the hamper that isn't a hand strewn over mine, or the pants carelessly swung off the side of the bed instead of a hot foot twined around my ankle keeping me anchored to something carnal or real to keep me from floating away.

Natural Rhythm. Hey Mr. Guitar, keep on strumming them strings. Then play me a song that will keep us all moving. Keep all of the ladies, just a shaking their thing; That will keep everybody in the room dancing, To the natural rhythm. I’ve got a natural rhythm in my heart and soul; I’ve got a natural rhythm in my head. I’ve got a natural rhythm in my heart and soul; I’ve got a natural rhythm as I lay here in your bed. Bounce to the rhythm of all of the drums. The drumbeat booms against your chorus of twiddling thumbs; Demanding your attention at the top of their voice. The low beat shriek, as we bang on the drums. Come on everybody and dance to the beat; The natural rhythm, that flows through you and me. The invisible hand, that guides our every step, Makes you bounce to the beat of every word that I have said. I’ve got a natural rhythm in my heart and soul; I’ve got a natural rhythm in my head. I’ve got a natural rhythm in my heart and soul; I’ve got a natural rhythm as I lay here in your bed. Keep on banging the drum to the sound of my rhythm; Keep on dancing and keep on giggling. Keep on keeping it real, for the people in the street; Keep on keeping it banging, to the funkiest beat. You see I got this natural rhythm, that’s in all God’s men And you also got the rhythm in your head, in your head. ‘Cause the rhythm of my rhyme, will drop right on time, As long as the sun is shining and I'm feeling irie eyed; As long as the bongo’s keep on banging in the smoky background, As long as to be rich, means more than acting the clown. You see the rich get the women, because to be rich is to be a **** And this is the best way to get the women. Flash a *** of cash at the latest one you think is pretty; Tell her you are loaded and pay her the money. Buy the woman you like; moneys all that you've got. I'm happy being poor; it's freedom at no cost. I’ve got a natural rhythm in my heart and soul; I’ve got a natural rhythm in my head. I’ve got a natural rhythm in my heart and soul; I’ve got a natural rhythm as I lay here in your bed. (C)2011 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.

O saw ye bonnie Lesley As she gaed o’er the Border? She’s gane, like Alexander, To spread her conquests farther. To see her is to love her, And love but her for ever; For Nature made her what she is, And ne’er made sic anither! Thou art a queen, fair Lesley, Thy subjects we, before thee; Thou art divine, fair Lesley, The hearts o’ men adore thee. The Deil he could’na scaith thee, Or aught that *** belang thee; He’d look into thy bonnie face, And say “I canna wrang thee!” The Powers aboon will tent thee; Misfortune sha’na steer thee; Thou’rt like themsel’ sae lovely That ill they’ll ne’er let near thee. Return again, fair Lesley, Return to Caledonie! That we may brag we hae a lass There’s nane again sae bonnie!

Last May a braw wooer cam down the lang glen, And sair wi’ his love he did deave me; I said there was naething I hated like men: The deuce *** wi ‘m to believe me, believe me, The deuce *** wi ‘m to believe me. He spak o’ the darts in my bonie black een, And vow’d for my love he was diein; I said he might die when he liked for Jean: The Lord forgie me for liein, for liein, The Lord forgie me for liein! A weel-stocked mailen, himsel for the laird, And marriage aff-hand, were his proffers: I never loot on that I ken’d it, or car’d, But thought I might hae waur offers, waur offers, But thought I might hae waur offers. But what *** ye think? in a fortnight or less, (The deil tak his taste to *** near her!) He up the lang loan to my black cousin Bess, Guess ye how, the jad! I could bear her, could bear her Guess ye how, the jad! I could bear her. But a’ the niest week I fretted wi’ care, I gaed to the tryste o’ Dalgarnock, And wha but my fine fickle lover was there, I glowr’d as I’d seen a warlock, a warlock. I glowr’d as I’d seen a warlock. But owre my left shoulder I *** him a blink, Lest neibors might say I was saucy; My wooer he caper’d as he’d been in drink, And vow’d I was his dear lassie, dear lassie, And vow’d I was his dear lassie. I spier’d for my cousin fu’ couthy and sweet, Gin she had recover’d her hearin, And how her new shoon fit her auld shachl’t feet— But, heavens! how he fell a swearin, a swearin, But, heavens! how he fell a swearin. He begg’d, for gudesake, I *** be his wife, Or else I *** **** him wi’ sorrow: So e’en to preserve the poor body in life, I think I maun wed him to-morrow, to-morrow, I think I maun wed him to-morrow.

Go fetch to me a pint o’ wine, An’ fill it in a silver tassie, That I may drink, before I go, A service to my bonnie lassie. The boat rocks at the pier o’ Leith, Fu’ loud the wind blaws frae the ferry, The ship rides by the Berwick-law, And I maun leave my bonnie Mary. The trumpets sound, the banners fly, The glittering spears are rankèd ready; The shouts o’ war are heard afar, The battle closes thick and ****** But it ’s no the roar o’ sea or shore Wad mak me langer wish to tarry; Nor shout o’ war that ’s heard afar— It ’s leaving thee, my bonnie Mary!

When did I become disposable income? I was so poor, I know I must of seemed like a steal. My bones are made of dehydrated milk and skin of a mothers welfare. Support came with regrets, you know. But how you managed to squeeze a penny from a SNAP of my belly- You must be good with money How you, Leave pockets empty with no change not even a wallet with a memory to care Eat your heart out through an *** Jeff Bezos. Silver spoon deeply exempted and certainly a love affair. Don't choke on *** of cold hard **** It's free of charge, I can't even save a seat for my fathers cooking; (also dehydrated and distant in taste and substance) let alone read a book written on saving money for someone special. I had a bid in those texts you invested in I hope you are rich and get all the love Certainly someone must. Cause I feel I am getting hungry And you are getting, delicious.

Earnestly convulsing, because I'm so **** bored. I've never had a seizure, but I imagine they're like this. Leg spasm... Flailing arm... Thrashing head... Bite my tongue... Against the floor... Sit up and spit up a *** of blood. Of course it's not a real seizure. Just trying something new.

Wee, sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi' bickering brattle! I *** be laith to rin an' chase thee, Wi' murd'ring pattle! I'm truly sorry man's dominion, Has broken nature's social union, An' justifies that ill opinion, Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor, earth-born companion, An' fellow-mortal! I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve; What then? poor beastie, thou maun live! A daimen icker in a thrave 'S a sma' request; I'll get a blessin wi' the lave, An' never miss't! Thy wee bit housie, too, in ruin! It's silly wa's the win's are strewin! An' naething, now, to big a new ane, O' foggage green! An' bleak December's winds ensuin, Baith snell an' keen! Thou saw the fields laid bare an' waste, An' weary winter comin fast, An' cozie here, beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell - Till crash! the cruel coulter past Out thro' thy cell. That wee bit heap o' leaves an' stibble, Has cost thee mony a weary nibble! Now thou's turn'd out, for a' thy trouble, But house or hald, To thole the winter's sleety dribble, An' cranreuch cauld! But, Mousie, thou art no thy lane, In proving foresight may be vain; The best-laid schemes o' mice an 'men Gang aft agley, An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain, For promis'd joy! Still thou art blest, compar'd wi' me The present only toucheth thee: But, Och! I backward cast my e'e. On prospects drear! An' forward, tho' I canna see, I guess an' fear!

To A Mouse (By Rabbie Burns)
Oh wert thou in the cauld blast, On yonder lea, on yonder lea, My plaidie to the angry airt, I’d shelter thee, I’d shelter thee; Or did misfortune’s bitter storms Around thee blaw, around thee blaw, Thy bield should be my ***** To share it a’, to share it a’. Or were I in the wildest waste, Sae black and bare, sae black and bare, The desart were a paradise, If thou wert there, if thou wert there. Or were I monarch o’ the globe, Wi’ thee to reign, wi’ thee to reign, The brightest jewel in my crown *** be my queen, *** be my queen.

Oh Wert Thou In The Cauld Blast
O Mary, at thy window be, It is the wished, the trysted hour! Those smiles and glances let me see, That make the miser’s treasure poor: How blythely *** I bide the stour, A weary slave frae sun to sun, Could I the rich reward secure, The lovely Mary Morison. Yestreen, when to the trembling string The dance gaed thro’ the lighted ha’, To thee my fancy took its wing, I sat, but neither heard nor saw: Tho’ this was fair, and that was braw, And yon the toast of a’ the town, I sighed, and said amang them a’, “Ye are na Mary Morison.” O Mary, canst thou wreck his peace Wha for thy sake *** gladly dee? Or canst thou break that heart of his, Whose only faut is loving thee? If love for love thou wilt na gie, At least be pity to me shown; A thought ungentle canna be The thought o’ Mary Morison.

Mary Morison
I saw her at the diner She caught my eye right from the start It wasn't too long after That this woman caught my heart She didn't fit in with the people Drinking coffee , eating up She was drinking with her pinkie out As she held her coffee cup She's was high class in a low class world That was plain as plain could be I wanted to be in her world And I wanted her with me She was queen of somewhere I don't know, and I wanted to be king She was high class in a low class world And I wanted to be king She had her napkin tucked Just so, you know Not all scrunched up in a *** And she only dabbed the corners Like an Angel sent from God She was crisp and pressed and perfect Not a hair was out of place And the light just made her eyes shine She had such a lovely face She's was high class in a low class world That was plain as plain could be I wanted to be in her world And I wanted her with me She was queen of somewhere I don't know, and I wanted to be king She was high class in a low class world And I wanted to be king She was sitting in our diner although she belonged far uptown Most folks here all wore ball caps while she deserved a crown When she spoke, my heart just trembled Her voice was breathy, like a wisp And she spoke like she was Royal So cool and cut and crisp She's was high class in a low class world That was plain as plain could be I wanted to be in her world And I wanted her with me She was queen of somewhere I don't know, and I wanted to be king She was high class in a low class world And I wanted to be king She was someone from a movie Full of mystery, intrigue And I knew from looking at her She was way out of my league I wouldn't know just where to start She was gold and I was tin She was High class in my low class world And I surely wanted in I stood there in the kitchen Washing dishes in the sink And I knew I'd go home lonely What else was there for to think? She's was high class in a low class world That was plain as plain could be I wanted to be in her world And I wanted her with me She was queen of somewhere I don't know, and I wanted to be king She was high class in a low class world And I wanted to be king

High Class in a Low Class World

While the sun pours over the early nightmarket An old woman sits, chewing Betel seed adrenaline into Wilting veins sprawled arachnid Behind her knees She, the center of all activity, is merely there A few children lift cinder blocks And their fathers solder wire To help put up the gate Before a white temple She spits a thick *** of it into Her *** a young woman nearby Pulls starfruit from a stall Starfruit, whose name should belong To the most elegant fruit, what a Pity it has such a wretched tang By now, the old woman is bobbing around Her murky mind, a betel juice Aquarium she can barely perceive the precision Of the cremation ceremony next door climaxing with The scattering of jasmine leaves To indicate mourning and forgiveness For untimely suicide and when the Cameraman approaches our old woman She spreads a numb smile, revealing her Black oily teeth Tarred over in betel juice

Smile
Closing my eyes I drift off to sleep Restless Unbridled thoughts Cloud my mind I walk among Sakura trees Thier bases glowing With kanjis barriers To ward off evil But something is off. The petals are wilted The grass around is brown Instead of green and alive As I make my way among them I hear the flutter of wings Not to sure what to expect I climb one of the trees At the highest point I see two figures One white winged The other black They seem to be circling Around something or someone I climb down Venturing forth Cautiously Not understanding why Are they here for me? Why in my safe haven? The closer I got The more I saw Between the two Layed a body Hovering just above the ground Raven black hair Hung as a halo Underneath her cold Deathlike skin. She layed there In a soft white Satin gown As if in an eternal slumber. The two fighters Commensed the attack On each other As I watched The body began to glow. A bright white energy Followed by a black energy I realized then They were fighting for her. I came close to the body As I looked at her face I froze My whole body went cold. I was looking at myself What *** going on? As I looked at the two angels My eyes widened in horror What was so special about me? I tried to wake myself up I shook my body As they fought And the ground beneath me Shook violently. I screamed As the swords clashed I shielded my body As the final few blows Were delivered As the ground rumbled Opening my eyes I look down My body was still glowing Only white Accompanied by a red light From the chest. He picked up my body And cradled it close As he did White wings formed On the back As she opened her eyes She smiled at me As she opened her wings Embracing me She whispered something in my ear. I smiled.. Both took to the sky As a sunbeam Shined through the clouds Showing them the way home. I understood Ive awakened I spread my wings And fly Home Where I belong.

. "That there Is'belle's house stinks wunderful turr'ble,"croaked Emma Beiler at their quilting bee. "Jah...vell," sighed Rosanna Yoder. "All them there katzes , ain't so?" Accordingly the two ladies set out to pay Travis and Isabella Salter a visit, only to be politely told that they had were in the process of taking some cats to a local shelter. Two weeks passed and to the Amish folks' disgust the odour had merely intensified. "Them there Englisch are chust liars!" Potato Sam spat the words out along with a *** of chewing tobacco. " Ach, vell," sighed  his wife Rosanna, unaware of her heavily sweating underarms. The Ordnung  strictly forbade deodorant as well as perfume. "Reckon I best  mosey over and see fur myself." Travis opened the door with a tired sigh. 'Chust thought I'de ask vhat fur stinks yer house up so vonderful tur'ble...Izzy tells us youse gettin' rid of them but-" A puzzled look crossed Travis weary face as he glanced toward the kitchen. Irritation gripped him, not lessened as Rosanna glowered at Tabby washing her face on the couch. Then a waft of a familiar scent, overpowering, drifted toward him from the kitchen. Brussel sprouts enhanced by -. With all the stress, Isabelle was increasing her calming herbs, mixing the powders.... Valerian? "Good evening, Mrs. Yoder." He motioned her toward the door, locking it firmly behind her. For a long time after she was gone he stood staring out the window.

or “I think I’ll buy a cigar today” I’ll smoke it tonight nothing too expensive but a reason to walk down a winter street without going anywhere A reason to do something devious unhealthy, but nobody has to know A reward to get me through a murky future There may be nothing to do in town tonight but it’s far too early to hold up in that bomb shell paranoia My parents have gone mad by the cameras behind their eyes and the dizziness of general telescopic evolution Me, I was raised on seizure fleeting Pikachus So far our defense is strong We really feel the Earth spin at its many miles an hour “The Cold Solitary Cigar Walk Happened” I waited for a friend to get home one evening Bundled up, emitting smoke to offend the quiet shut-ins of a neighborhood watch I walked to the small old bridge over the canal I had to **** so bad I snuck down under the bridge and let loose in the snow but not before shorting that foul little cigar Bad taste in my mouth the 5 minute journey was enough Zipped up, bored on the bridge my lonliness afforded me the comfort of no public eye I looked into the dark water and spat a good *** into the small reflection of a red safety light The ripple and “splat” satisfied me so much that I spat again I turned around to walk and some passerby girl appeared She kept walking and pretended she didn't see me Weren't you once my girlfriend?
