Vintage for SL-Week

“I am more vintage than I am high fashion” Kat Graham

Bombs Away!

It was nineteen and forty-five
The world, in a deep dive
Trying very hard to survive
And we did, so for that
A high five!

Seat Sunday 2016-06-26

“Common sense says that chairs and tables exist independently of whether anyone happens to perceive them or not” Charles D. Broad

Choices to make

When in a park cafe
Wishing the rain away
Hard choices to make
Eat a bun or a cake?
Sit on the green or the red
Oh, these hard choices
I have to make!

Occupied/Vacant

A quiet corner
Of a busy street
Like a human recorder
Listening, watching, plotting
For anything, to tweet

Ready for my profile pic

Stating this fact as my gospel:

Nuff said!

Best begging face

I want more!
Gimme more!

Go to the store
And get me
Some more!

Guard duty

Hired gun
With my phaser on stun
Get the pun?
Alert and ready
On my four legs steady
Looking around
Pouncing, on every sound
I am on
Guard duty

Can’t be bothered

Can’t be bothered
Laying low, like an otter
Just had me some water
Because outside is much hotter
And I really don’t like
Harry Potter

What?

What’s ya looking at?
Don’t ya believe I’m a cat?
Maybe I just ate a rat
And now, filled, laying flat

Sometimes, I wear a hat
To feel like an aristocrat
I only drink milk nonfat
In a tall glass, placed on a mat

Paging Mr Diesel

Maybe I’m a frog
Or just a regular dog
Maybe,
There is a little cat in me too
So without further ado
Put on your dentures
Follow my adventures
And you’ll find out
What I really do?
Call me Mr Diesel,
And hear me roar!

Curve for The Daily Post

“In life, as in art, the beautiful moves in curves” Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

White

“The cone of silence
Expecting only, compliance
We are the all mighty tyrants
All others need guidance
If you remain defiant
We will revoke your license
And throw you off this island!”
