Graffiti Porvoo Style

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“It’s Porvoo style – whoomph whoomph, whoomph, whoomph – Porvoo style!”

Graffiti Porvoo Style

I’m spraying my graffiti
Where ever it fits me
On the walls of suburbia
Bringing a sense of hysteria
There is no mystery
Of who I am
Just read my life’s history
Come and catch me if you can

Upside Down or Opposite Day

“This is not the rhyming song!”

Upside Down or Opposite Day

Chocolate as a dietary measure
Which can be the ultimate pleasure
To get the same effect
From this heavenly confect
You would by eating a carrot

Oh don’t listen to the parrot!

At least double the amount
No no you don’t have to count
Per each pleasurable bite
When enjoying this healthiest of delights

Chocolate is the answer
Never mind what the question was!

Freedom

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“Life, Love, Liberty”

Freedom

Freedom is to be who you are without being ashamed
Freedom is to love someone without being blamed
Freedom is to walk home in the dark without being raped
Freedom is to say your thoughts out loud without being hated
Freedom is to choose whether you turn left or right
Freedom is to surrender without a fight

Freedom is,
To be who you are
Where you are
When you are
Let no one
Tell you differently

Camouflage

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“I need camouflage
that works in such a way
that when I wear it,
you disappear.”
Jarod Kintz

Camouflage

I need a good disguise
I really need to hide
From the prying eyes
So very hard I tried
To fit in the system
Trying each position
But now the resistance
Almost my mission
Is to get away
To disappear
I know it’s a cliche
I am facing
The final frontier
My heart racing
I am finally fading
My shell visible
Slowly trading
Becoming invisible
My camouflage
Now complete

“No place is ever as bad
as they tell you it’s going to be.”
Chuck Thompson

Greece

Sunsets and horseback rides
In the sandy open wide
Beach life at its best
Or something else you can suggest?

“No place is ever as bad
as they tell you it’s going to be.”
Chuck Thompson

Greece

Knick-knacks
And doodads
They may not last
To tell any tales
From here
To the past

“No place is ever as bad
as they tell you it’s going to be.”
Chuck Thompson

Greece

In the clear turquoise waters
Maybe, spotting a few otters
But fare warning
Be careful, of what you may spot
The white fading spot
Could be a seagull doing a drop
Or a tourist diving
Without a bottom or a top!

“No place is ever as bad

Chuck Thompson

Greece

The midday sun
High up in the blue sky
Enjoying the holiday fun
Watching the birds fly

“No place is ever as bad
as they tell you it’s going to be.”
Chuck Thompson

Greece

Local architecture,
Filled with history
Just lay back
And soak in the stories
Of all the glories
From the past
Plastered to last
Oh, what a blast!
