For The Nth Time

THERE is always the nth time
an nth promise which shall also be broken
for the nth time,
the nth time does not end
for it knows to start its life over and over again
the nth time that i am in
for the nth time shall i be on this nth time again
never at a loss
infinity...till the nth time.

Tied Up

(j.farrar/l.ritenour)
You keep me waiting,i don't mind waiting
I don't wait for evryone
This is a one time situation
You say you need me, i believe you need me
But you're foolin' no one
This is a one time situation
What does it matter, who's been takin' in?
Ah,what does it matter
When you got two hearts achin' to begin?
Here's the opportunity come and take it to the nth degree
Don't be nervous, i don't have to be tied up in promises
Ooh,tied up in words that cut too deep
Tied up in promises we could never keep
I don't wanna let you down
Don't make me let you down
I get a feeling, a head to toe feeling
There's something special goin' on
This is a one time situation
Take my affection, give me love or rejection

Golden ginger Persian cat (Terzanelle)

You walk right up to me
with your striped tail in the air,
a hunter to the nth degree

with golden ginger hair,
you become a machine with claws and slim curves,
with your striped tail in the air

at the ready with nerves
at a razor’s edge,
you become a machine with claws and slim curves,

suddenly with electricity, sneaking up to the hedge
staring intently, ready to strike
at a razor’s edge,

waiting patiently like a shrike
with poise
staring intently, ready to strike

You get the software you pay for. In every sense. To the nth degree. That's the way the world works.

Every Closed Door

for every closed door
they say another window opens

so? now you do not have to walk
you must jump from this nth floor

Poetry is ordinary language raised to the Nth power. Poetry is boned with ideas, nerved and blooded with emotions, all held together by the delicate, tough skin of words.

The Government are very keen on amassing statistics - they collect them, add them, raise them to the nth power, take the cube root and prepare wonderful diagrams.

With all due respect to lawyers, it's wonderful that you have this intricate knowledge. You break down words to the nth degree. And sometimes I find it rather disgusting. And it goes on and on.

Electronic Age...

They buried the postman
The telegram is a laughter

Time is nth
It does not fly anymore
Neither can it stand still

The choices are oceans
One floats
Undecided where to go
what to do
exactly....

The government (is) extremely fond of amassing great quantities of statistics. These are raised to the nth degree, the cube roots are extracted, and the results are arranged into elaborate and impressive displays. What must be kept ever in mind, however, is that in every case, the figures are first put down by a village watchman, and he puts down anything he damn well pleases.
