    the fear is a natural reaction
    to the god of their religious faction
    who will burn them in hell
    if there's even a smell
    of them taking an opposite action

      So true, it really is old,
      all cut from the same brainwashed mold,
      If one of them's banned,
      one returns equally bland,
      with myths they've all extolled.

    Religion is not always a bad thing

    But when it is made the only thing

    Then it becomes confrontational

    But for many it is inspirational

    So it depends on how you see this thing

    sweetiePie you are a suprise
    with words that are kindly and wise
    we will leave out religions
    and talk about pidgeons
    their wings and the shape of their eyes.

    I did not mean to talk about religion

    Just saying people like division

    They do it in the politics too

    So nothing is really new

    Some people just like contention

    Pigeons can be a lot of fun

    When they play in the sun

    Are they good pets

    Or even good for bets

    Pet pigeons are not so fun

    As you know, I don't mind a discussion
    but I don't like much verbal percussion
    If I get called a fool
    I break my own rule
    and attack with a word or a muffin

    Some people insist they must always be right

    And they try this with might

    They never want to acknowledge

    Another person's knowledge

    So the only like to start verbal fights

      Verbal fights are a bit of a strain
      it seldom involves use of brain
      when they get in the mood
      to insult and be rude
      it's time for me to refrain

    Pigeons are of Columbidae,
    so dumb they can barely fly.
    Might try one with soup,
    could cause me the croup,

    I once made my mustache just like Dali

    when I road over fifty
    the ends got quite nifty

    Hair blowing and breezy like Fonda's,

    My hair can curl very easily when I set it

    But the hassle is a fit

    So usually it is straight

    Except on certain dates

    Then I might actually tease the heck out of it

    I had a bike shop once you know

    Honda is best
    makes a joke of the rest
    and Harley's are clumsy and slow

      House-hunting is fun for a second,

      The bedroom's the pinnacle,
      avoid one that's clinical,

          But my fans await me,
          and scream like banshees
          if I quit being a brilliant wordsmith.  *sighs*

            Your wordsmithery is certainly fine
            I suspect that it's better than mine
            fame is the price
            for being so nice
            and wordsmithering well all of the time!

    I'm taking these posts to five hundred,
    "She'll even do it alone", she thundered.
    This thread's smokin' hot,
    and no one will be caught
    saying:  "Man, this threads been plundered."

      The plundering can only be fine
      if it is your work or mine
      we can plunder away
      till the end of the day
      while taking a break all the time.

    Oh, I see it is just a Leo thing
    Silly me; of course you'll make it sing
    But take care of yourself in your quest for wealth
    For a Lion can rely on far more than stealth
    You can sell your smile; to earn the bling!

    You guys still rhyming? This is hilarious!
    The situation's becoming synonymous
    With words like 'addiction'
    Now here's my prediction
    You'll join me soon: Limericks Anonymous

      L.A. I must join straight away!
      This is taking up too much of my day.
      I'll start the meetings,
      if you do the greetings,
      Welcome to Limericks A.

    Just got home from work pretty tired
    This party is still pretty wired
    But I've made my money,
    going to bed with my honey
    Maybe tomorrow I'll be more inspired.

    smile
