Risk Avoidance Grook

Visible to anyone in the world
if I were a better

I wouldn’t gamble on things getting better.

They might get worse,

Against which this is averse.

Time

Visible to anyone in the world

"Back to the Future", someone said. But then another asked,

"Why not Forward to the Past?"

Since Past and Future both must be uncertain,

Why not exchange the Opening, and the Final Curtain?"

An Odd Wind Blew

Visible to anyone in the world

Tonight such an odd wind blew

The doors resisted closing.

They whinnied and cried at their latches.

The leaves in the gutters scuttled restlessly.

They blew off and threw themsleves back again.

The trees creaked and cried out.

They squeaked like ghosts.

The chimney pots seemed unaffected, although

They must have known.

Tonight such an odd wind has blown.

Ruthless Rhyme

Visible to anyone in the world

Little Willie, for a lark

Fed the baby to a shark.

Saying as he watched it swallow, 

“Stomach ache is sure to follow”.
