An altercation is like buttermilk -- the more you stir it, the sourer it gets.

A quarrel is like buttermilk, the more you stir it, the more sour it grows.
I can still memory - taste the fresh buttermilk pancakes and hot buttermilk biscuits - both made with lard! - that were cooked on the top, or in the oven, of that ancient iron stove.

Stop The Train (feat. Peter Tosh)
Stir it up little darling, stir it up
Come on baby come on and stir it up little darling, stir it up
It's been a long long time since I've got you on my mind
And now you are here
I say it's so clear
To see what we can do, honey, just me and you
Come on and stir it up, little darling, stir it up
Come on baby come on and stir it up little darling, stir it up
I'll push the wood, I'll blaze your fire
Then I'll satisfy your heart's desire
Said I'll stir it up, yeah, ev'ry minute, yeah
All you got to do is keep it in, baby
And stir it up, little darling, stir it up
Come on and stir it up, oh, little darling, stir it up, yeah
Oh, will you quench me while I'm thirsty?
Come and cool me down when I'm hot?
Your recipe, darling, is so tasty
And you sure can stir your pot
So stir it up, little darling, stir it up
Come on and stir it up, oh, little darling, stir it up
Come on and stir it up, oh, little darling, stir it up

Shoo Fly!
Shoo fly!
This aint buttermilk.
You seek the end result.
To pick from what has been processed.
Making a taste easier for you to reproduce and lift.
Shoo fly!
This aint buttermilk.
This chocolate whip has nuts!

It takes two to start an altercation, but only one to end it.
I and I
Thou art my I,
I am thy I,
Why should there be
An altercation
Between I and I?

She wants to have buttermilk, but has hidden the pot brought for it behind one's back.
There is more friendship in a half pint of whiskey than in a churn of buttermilk.
As for those grapefruit and buttermilk diets, I'll take roast chicken and dumplings.

A quarrel is like buttermilk: once it's out of the churn, the more you shake it, the more sour it grows.
No Child
I HEARD in the night the pigeons
Stirring within their nest:
The wild pigeons' stir was tender,
Like a child's hand at the breast.
I cried 'O stir no more!
(My breast was touched with tears).
O pigeons, make no stir
A childless woman hears.'

Since you gone
'Since you gone'
Storms in the eyes,
Desert heart land.
Feelings of suffocation
Combustion potential.
Moment of blazing coals,
As horrible pain,
Death altercation
Flux of stone body.
Since you.............gone...

Those Sexual Innuendos
Innocence has blown up in a puff!
Those,
Sexual innuendos...
Can stir things up!
And addict a kid to lust.
With a stirring that corrupts.
All those sexual innuendos,
Can stir things up.
And when children think of chicken...
They want to know if the rooster plucks.
And in what position does a chicken cluck.
Those,
Sexual innuendos...
Can stir things up!
And addict a kid to lust.
With a stirring that corrupts.
Those sexual innuendos...
That stir things up.
Are fed to feed attraction,
With a stirring things up!
And made to trap...
Weak minds to keep attracted.
Those sexual innuendos...
That stir things up.
Are fed to feed attraction,
With a stirring things up!
And made to trap...
Weak minds to keep attracted.
Those,
Sexual innuendos...
Can stir things up!
And addict a kid to lust.
With a stirring that corrupts.
All those sexual innuendos,
Can stir things up.
And when children think of chicken...
They want to know if the rooster plucks.
And in what position does a chicken cluck.
All those sexual innuendos,
Can stir things up.
All those sexual innuendos,
Can stir things up.
All those sexual innuendos,
Can stir things up.
Those,
Sexual innuendos...
Can stir things up!

Rethinking Teen Angst
Inebriation, altercation
lost trust of a generation
anger burns through my veins
information floods my brain
sick and tired of compromise
done whining about my life
looking for change around me
everything's dying inside me
I'm sick of the same old sh*t
I'm done with it.

If there is my
If there is my and there is yours
And a distinction is made
Stir is caused in it
And war is invited
As
Curd is churned
A stir is caused in it
And butter is extracted.

When my country, into which I had just set my foot, was set on fire about my ears, it was time to stir. It was time for every man to stir.

Ations
If we meet and I say, 'Hi,'
That's a salutation.
If you ask me how I feel,
That's a consideration.
If we stop and talk a while,
That's a conversation.
If we understand each other,
That's a communication.
If we argue, scream and fight,
That's an altercation.
If later we apoligize,
That's reconciliation.
If we help each other home,
That's a cooperation.
And all these actions added up
Make Civilization.
(And if I say this is a wonderful poem,
Is that exaggeration?)
