The voice in the silence imparts wisdom for today,
Of past classrooms inescapable that arrived with each day,
This judgement guiding knowledge, a possession so nice,
Is a treasure gathered daily as it tallies its price,
The face in the mirror, ever changing, ever mine,
Bears the milage of the wisdom that measures my time.

There are dudes with low hanging pants,
That inspire disgust and our rants,
Someone please tell them soon,
With their half covered moon,
Skid marks do not lead to romance.
--------
As we grow and live life on the run,
We can pause for a fond reflection,
Shaking sodas in cans,
Speaking robot through fans,
When we were kids, we were masters of fun.
--------

Whose techie advice we all crave,
He wears a white hat,
Rather than getting fat,
By making our system his slave.

A cyberspace dude we call Tom,
Rules the universe of myspace-dot-com,
Just a regular guy,
With tee shirt and no tie,
Has the suit salesmen losing their calm.

There once was a stripper from Mars,
With a huge collection of cars,
Her most profitable joke,
Asking men who don't smoke,
If they knew where to find pink cigars

Instead you’re asleep at the wheel,
I could have blogged there,
But must head off somewhere,
That they answer and then close the deal.
--------
My own little brother named Bob,
Like us all had routines and a job,
When the candles he blew,
Birthday wishes came true
for his family. He's no selfish slob.
--------
Condoleezza Rice for VP!
Is an option that so works for me.
Let's encourage her place,
In the November race,
She deserves more than my poetry.
