Like

I'll write a poem for our time.  Bitten off more than I can chew.  It goes without saying.  Its left me in a bit of a stew.

All my eggs in one basket.  All's fair in love or war.  All's well that ends well.  The writing's on the wall.

You can't pull the wool over my eyes.  You can't pull a fast one on me.  No use crying over spilled milk. There's plenty more fish in the sea.

The world will turn without you.  Make hay while the sun shines. Better safe than sorry.  I heard it through the grapevine.

It takes two to tango.  There no accounting for taste.  Missed the boat on that one.  By a simple twist of fate.

Make the best of a bad situation.  Look what the cat dragged in.  Light at the end of the tunnel.        Look as neat as a pin.

That's the law of the jungle.  You let sleeping dogs lie.  For all intents and purposes.  You are left high and dry.

A force to be reckoned with.  Good things come to those who wait.  Back to the drawing board for this one.  Ill start with a clean slate.

Bored stiff.  Bottomless pit.  Bleeding heart.  Black as pitch.  Labor of love.  Fun and games.              Cut to the quick.  Life's a bitch.

Between a rock and a hard place. Big fish in a small pond.  Beggars can't be choosers.  My word is my bond.

At the end of the day.  If it rhymes how ever vague.  Come hell or high water.  Avoid cliches,  like the plague.

                                                         Y' know wot I mean ?




 


 

O Western Wind


 O western wind, when wilt thou blow.

That the small rain down can rain?

Christ, that my love were in my arms,

And I in my bed again.

Interesting

No interest in what I do.                                                                                                                                   No interest in what I say.                                                                                                                                   No interest in where I've been.                                                                                                                                     No interest in what I've seen.                                                                                                                                  No interest in what I know.                                                                                                                               No interest can they show.                                                                                                                                      No interest in what I write.                                                                                                                                        No interest in my life.
