I have been on diets that were supervised by doctors, that were carefully supervised where I lost weight.

Maturity is the ability to do a job whether or not you are supervised, to carry money without spending it and to bear an injustice without wanting to get even.

Maturity: Be able to stick with a job until it is finished. Be able to bear an injustice without having to get even. Be able to carry money without spending it. Do your duty without being supervised.

They sent me to these places to get the weight off. The diets never worked; the diets actually made it worse.

The NRA provided that in America each industry should be organized into a federally supervised trade association. It was not called a corporative. It was called a Code Authority.

Honor & Harmony
No need to pull some weight around
But then I aint gonna just sit here
Like a clown and just wait around
Im taking what Ive earned to be taking
And you know you only get stronger
When your heart is asking
But me Ive had enough of walking around for some red tape
You know its just a fake
I say its a big mistake
And were all human
So theres no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
Well surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony...
Come on!
What shall we choose to be our tactics
In this age of computer taxes oh no
When in this new era to come
We shall be organized and not supervised
From the physical to the spiritual
All our works will be so critical
Our offense and mental will soar
Our ornamental will be so pure
And we wont sweat the expense
In the new millenium
We are raising through the fog
Helping the healing god
The next awakening is you
And were all human
So theres no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
Well surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony...
Come on!

2008: Grandpa Will Never Be Asked To Help With Homework Again
Had the grandkids overnight
Dinner baths and do homework
Before TV - - - their Mom said
Before TV
I cleared and washed dishes
Grandma supervised baths
Then homework - - -
To speed things up
I offered to help so I could see TV too
Working on silent 'e's
Grandma came up with cut to cute
I added butt to butte
Never to be asked again

The Easier It Looks
The easier it looks,
For one to do something done.
And to keep those from the outside,
Looking in...
With that perception undefended.
The harder it gets,
For one to do this...
Without getting sleep or rest.
And yet,
Making appearances everywhere...
As if,
There is nothing but time wasted.
To do what one pleases without care,
With a team unseen sweating in despair.
And supervised nonstop,
To produce with perfection their very best.
'It is not humanly possible,
To do what he is known to do...
With a proving that shows that he has done it,
Without him being some kind of machine.'
~But how?
We've been on his back like white on rice,
For years and before that when he was just a teen.~
'So what are you saying?
He is one of twins? '
~No!
But I do believe he is a triplet.~
'Hmmm...
I had not thought of that.
And maybe the other two yet to be born,
Dictate to him from realms beyond.'
~You may be on to 'something'.
Let's continue our probe.~
'And,
I know this is going to sound foolish.
But...
Maybe he just loves what he does.
And committed to the doing of it.'

NO NEED TO VOTE Apr 28th,2011
We are satisfied because there’s no need to vote or be involved,
Our politicians will go to Ottawa where it’s all solved,
No need to change or have recall because everything is right,
Though elected Senate and set-date elections would be a delight.
Party politicians don’t need to think as they follow along,
They say binding referendums and death with dignity are wrong,
Compulsory voting for Canadians will not be discussed,
Capital punishment is only mentioned in utter disgust.
What you need on your street is two or three abortion clinics,
Next to the supervised injection site but I’m being a cynic,
The dog is barking and many of us have already left town,
The remainders of us are caught in traffic looking around.

Weight Of History
However hard we try to shed
the weight of history, the last ten pounds
remain to weigh us down like lead
and spoil our taste like bitter coffee grounds.
However hard we try to mod-
ernize our diets we remain the host-
ages of history and God,
for neither disappear or can be lost.

Yo-yo
Many Diets you follow.
Losing weight like no tomorrow.
And it finally plateau,
You indulge in sweet sorrow.
That's called dieting Yo-Yo.
Lock-in Mentor
One decade young now court protected
broken law or broken trust one selected
qualifying supervised life and school
learning behavioral and societal rule
attitude and group interaction earns merits
much depends upon background one inherits
therapist decides and monitors progress
another level rewarded sometimes regress
mentor gently encourages discipline in life
way for success if only to avoid feared strife
wishing you happiness after release
praying you find loving arms and not police
only first name no address when we part
just a bittersweet snapshot in my heart.
(dedicated to my wife, a very caring mentor)

Technocratic Manipulators
I've passed the entry of the system
They taught me with an anthem
It seems like I'm one of them
A kind of people I can't describe
They got a number between their eyes
Identity has been commanded
Subconscious has recorded
The orders from the big head
I'm now a part of this machine
Supervised by the telescreen
That's not for me, too much for me
That's all for me
And they're going nowhere
To find better somewhere
But can't get out of there
During the night my soul is hearing
Usual advertising
Message that I'm still learning
One thousand times it's a routine
Should be enough to fall asleep
That's not for me, too much for me
That's all for me
And they're going nowhere
To find better somewhere
But can't get out of there
Is it the same message
For the preconceived children ?
Let me know, before I go...
Death of their liberty
Feeds the supremacy
Under hypnosis I take a walk
Controlled people have to stop
Robotic voice starts to talk
Why we must be listening
I think we all had the same dreams
And they're going nowhere
To find better somewhere
But can't get out of there
I'd rather think
But there's something strong
I'd rather think
But there's something wrong
I'd rather think (6)
I'd rather think
Coz my mind despairs
I'd rather think
Coz I can't live there
I'd rather think...think

Injection Sites
They want supervised injection sites on just about every street,
Decisions of the Supreme Court may not be one bit discreet,
These judges dressed up like Santa Clause that gave us abortion clinics,
You have no option but to obey though you can be a cynic.
The mysterious militants want to legalize all drugs,
Most media might mention this with the occasional shrug,
Activists mention studies and twisted false statistics they like,
They claim to save the lives of addicts while the drug dealers’ sales spike.
These sites have been banned in many European cities and towns,
But in Vancouver they refuse while politicians go to ground,
We’re not allowed binding referendums while politicians hide,
So our Supreme Court may be a Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde.

Carefully
You are free to chose,
that’s why
carefully use every word.
Carefully measure every step,
if you don’t want to be swept.
Carefully do all you’ve conceived.
and…if you want to be believed
and… to achieve your aim
it’s not a shame
to start carefully a new song.
And it doesn’t matter if it is long.
If you carefully do all that
you will never regret.

Legalization Of Waterboarding?
walk not a torturous road to justice?
make not evil lawful within the state
as Nazi Germany did walk not this road
issue no torture warrant to legalize crime
as Nazi Germany legalized mass murder
allow torture to be clinically supervised?
assign observer proper medical monitoring
duty to determine control quality of torture?
guard against torture life-threatening?
duty of trained medical professionals?
officially provide for doctors to treat
the tortured God help this tortured soul
as doctors patch you up to endure more
torture during and after torture ordeal?
would you hang observing head in shame?
George W Bush Loves Waterboarding
George spoke of authorization in memoirs
how his lawyers told him it was legal to
systematically repeatedly drown suspects
innocent but presumed guilty without trial
Amnesty International and Geneva Conventions
disagree with your lawyers ignoring laws George
but my lawyers assured me it benefits our society
but Eve said it was good but Satan said souls will
positively not die thieves are so happy until caught
somebody has stolen right to be tried in impartial court?
right to be held in a prison cell not a humiliation cage?
do you not know sowing hate seeds strengthens enemies?
recruitment soars evil grows holds us at bay by the throat?
Lord is it not written “return evil to no one” it is written!
“Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but yield place
to the wrath; for it is written: “Vengeance is mine;
I will repay, says Jehovah.” But, “if your enemy is
hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something
to drink; for by doing this you will heap fiery coals upon
his head.” “Do not let yourself be conquered by the evil,
but keep conquering the evil with good.” Romans 12: 17-21.

Still Smoking a Rant
A cigarette will soothe away
the stress and troubles of the day.
That’s what the doctors used to say.
When I was young
When feel down and skies are grey
a smoke will drive the blues away.
That’s what the doctors used to say.
When I was young.
A smoke will help you work and play
and do no harm in any way
That’s what the doctors used to say.
When I was young.
New fads and fancies come along.
Without admitting they were wrong.
The doctors sing a different song.
Now I am old.
If they were wrong why should we
believe their latest theory.
The doctors sing a different song.
Now I am old.
Smokers die younger so they say
younger than who I ask today.
The doctors sing a different song.
Now I am old.
I have smoked since I was ten,
part of my daily regimen.
The doctors sing a different song.
Now I am old.
Presumably I should be dead.
If I believed the lies we’re fed
The doctors sing a different song.
Now I am old.
The choice is yours to quit or smoke.
Myself I treat it as a joke.
The song the doctors sing today.
I am quite old
Both smokers and non smokers die
which I accept I don’t ask why
Despite the song the doctors sing.
I’m still smoking.

Are They Right?
Their newspaper articles sometimes fill at least a page or two,
It’s like something that started very small and grew and grew,
Their agenda to help drug addicts with illegal drugs is strange,
They want to expand out of Vancouver, at present their home range.
From the number of positive studies they quote, we should be involved,
Because the number of drug-addicts is increasing and could be solved,
Their free injection sites are supervised by their medical friends,
And if we don’t get involved, we could miss out on the social trends.
Their newspaper articles fill pages with their propaganda,
Many strange left-wing activists are locked to their agenda,
Am I missing something here as they say that other studies are wrong?
Should I just shut up and believe the propaganda of this throng?

Doctor's Day 2012
Most Doctors…
Try their best to heal;
Do not try to steal;
Use their ken to deal
With patient's problems and do feel!
All Doctors…
Are just humans too;
Try to be humane and do
Their duty with ethics due,
Upgrading knowledge new.
A few Doctors…
May make errors great;
May fleece patients poor;
May not perform to their best,
And earn a bad name for the rest!
Doctors…
Are a noble lot and lucky slot,
Whose toil is praised but soon forgot;
Sacrifice their life-times but cannot
Find time to check own health from rot!
Wish Doctors all, ‘A Happy Doctors Day! '
May they labour, come what may;
For their kind work, may God repay
With heaven, and bless them His way!

Doctor's Day In India
Though once a year comes Doctor's Day,
Let us celebrate it;
‘A noble profession', all say;
Accolades, let's befit.
All doctors must improve health-care
Of world's sick/suffering souls;
Let doctors toil for sick-welfare,
Assuming varied roles.
The world needs better doctors more -
A dedicated lot;
They form the health-providers core -
A sacrificing slot!
May doctors work most selflessly;
May patients benefit;
May doctors serve them faultlessly,
And heal all, bit by bit!
