It's either good or a sin
'Cause there's nothing inbetween
Be you confident. Be you keen
Keep the doubt, deep within
Are you out? Or are you in?!
Act as you want to be seen
You either lose or you win
Contain your body, in the skin
I have the blame, bring the pin
So that this game, may begin

I am human, you are human
We're not the same, i am the man
If you see danger, you have to run
I will stay behind, i have to learn
Why live a life, that isn't fun?!
A stupid question, i'm not a fan
We all just fit into the plan
Just try to fight it,if you can
Ignite the fire and let it burn
With the storm, just let it churn

It once was just a rainbow
Now what it is, I hardly know
The flags are surely flying low
Let that word then be the law
To that word, then shall I bow
And if you ask, I'll show you how
Don't want to hurt anybody's toe
But truth hurts, just let that go
Like all the others did before
I am good a friend, better a foe

It is not easy acting all tough
At times all you need is a good laugh
Cold as a breeze, blue as a smurf
Eventually you see,you've had enough
And you thought, you had it rough
All people around, then call a bluff
What can you do? Each hand in a cuff
Odds are pretty bad, so says the graph
Share your problems, keep your half
Could be sinking, do watch your calf

All happiness is but compromise
As you age, you tend to wise
From the ashes, you have to rise
Take your chances, toss the dice
And there's a time for being nice
Be not idle, you will pick a vice
Hope, like a phoenix, never dies
I do my charity, give thee advice
Well, toss a dime. No free service
Need one for the road?! Please...
...do have this

Hello again!! Umm...this is my 50th poem is this book. So, I can say from experience that the one thing you can't avoid when writing poetry is...compromise.  If you can't compromise, you can't write poetry ;) Emotions & imagination  are also very important. The most important thing however...are you, the READERS <applause > I dedicate FIFTY to all who take their time to read my Nonsense, you're truely awesome:) I still  accept requests & suggestions for poem titles/topics. They put me under pressure & I word/work better then. Arigatou...merci...thank you ...
