‘This officer advanced with the first wave,

Counter-attack

We'd gained our first objective hours before
While dawn broke like a face with blinking eyes,
Pallid, unshaved and thirsty, blind with smoke.
Things seemed all right at first. We held their line,

The Ballad Of Hard-luck Henry

Now wouldn't you expect to find a man an awful crank
That's staked out nigh three hundred claims, and every one a blank;
That's followed every fool stampede, and seen the rise and fall
Of camps where men got gold in chunks and he got none at all;

All embracing as the heavens,

Say you have some great objective.
Very well. Be calm, reflective;
Make no vulgar show of vigor; 'tisn't good.
Do not rush the thing directly;

There's a dashin' sort of boy
Which they call his Party's Joy,
And his smile-that-won't-come-off would quite disarm ye;
And he played the leadin' hand

Needs a world combined with pure feelings,

Can't You See?

Why can't we be supportive of this?
Why can we open our mind to this objective?
Why can't we save our planet earth from this ascending climate change?
Why do we flump and present that they nothing happening?

And I am sure you will realise
There is more in disguise
If opportunity does not knock at your door

When We Were Close Friends

We had an unselfish love when we were close friends.
You were a good friend and a trusted companion,
The only one I could depend on for sound advice was you.
We felt strong concern for the wellbeing of each other.

Trouble In The Louvre

When the German troops were marching with the Uhlans far ahead,
The objective point being Paris, as the Berlin wireless said,
There was trouble in the Louvre, 'mong the paintings on the walls,
There were shoutings 'cross the centuries, there were loud artistic calls;

Crazy

What I am thinking is right because I feel that what I am doing is right
I am popular because of association and I take credit because they want me to do so
The perks of being a popstar are standards that I try to compare to others every day
That is my form of inspiration

Ways

The ways that we treat each other are si liar to the ways that we learn about the nature of our surroundings
When we are under the influence of someone we are frequently linking with them in a way that is unique and therefore we need a look at different people to understand if what we are doing is right
There are problems that we face but we have to grow up and realise that time waits for no man
The aim is to be successful amd the objective is to associate with people that can help us to achieve the mission that we have set for ourselves to make progress

All

I need all of you with me because I need to learn more about you
I like the person you are and I am happy with the progress that we are making every day
The way that I need you is the same way that I feel as though I need to do the regular things I do
The way that you look at me is something I can never forget because you are teaching me more about yourself and I am learning more about myself

The year of three sixty six days playing twenty - twenty,
Snatched away and gave something in plenty!
Arrived with a whammy naming it 'Covid',
Left everyone flabbergasted itself being vivid!!

Independent Thinking

What do preachers and teachers have against independent thinking?
If you should not think for yourselves, who should think for you?
The objective of my writing is to draw people’s attention to serious issues.
I am an independent thinker and that is what I will always be.
