"Metallic Legends" (Entry 250)

Metal pots of death, 

Take aim and blast your fatal ray. 

It is your goal -

Universal Rule. 

Ready - Fire - Exterminate!

"Exam-tied" (Entry 189)

Country wide. 

Revision eyed. 

Brain fried. 

Ride the tide. 

Thought cried. 

Notes guide. 

Mind hide.

Heart sighed. 

Answers denied? 

Bright side. 

Solve and decide. 

Task applied.

Memory provide. 

Pen glide. 

In a stride. 

Best tried. 

Over - survived!

Grade supplied. 

End in pride.

"Sand" (Entry 156)

Sand in your ears.

Sand 'tween the toes.

Only you know where the sand goes.

Sand on the beaches.

Sand near the shore.

Sand and the sea, it's what I adore!

"Toast the Host - The Wry Stephen Fry" (Entry 101)

Why, oh why, oh why, 

Can’t I speak like Stephen Fry? 

Eloquent, droll and urbane, 

Effortlessly able to entertain. 

Fluent in knowledge and repartee. 

Proficient in badinage - the consummate emcee. 

Quips aplenty ready to supply, 

The perfect host for QI.

"Inhabit the Impossible" (Entry 93)

Take me to another place,

A world beyond my own space.

Be it Sunnydale or Valley High,

Eons to love and live and fly.

I’ll travel to Riva upon Greldik’s ship,

Stand in The Citadel, before I slip,

Across time and cosmos in a small blue box,

A place of multi-dimensional shocks.

Until I reach a desert tomb,

To assist in The Mummy’s exhume.

Tour The Sandman’s world of things unseen.

Be taught the magicks by Constantine.

Indy’s the prof’ who’s most able,

To separate fact from fable.

Have adventures with Stephen Brown.

Grab a bite - maybe a stake - in a Vampire’s Town.

Take a Trek across the stars.

Sci-fi and fantasy are best by far.

Scenes of amazing creation.

Escape into your imagination.

"The Modern Merry Widow" (Entry 27)

Woe is me, alas, alack!

My husband, I did bury.

Attired in weeds of deepest black,

Now, I’m the widow merry.

(The life cover has been granted...)

Look out world. There's no holding back.

Aboard an oceanic cruise,

Dressed gowns of sequinned black,

Point me to the booze!

(Well, it’s what he would have wanted!)
