Masters of Deception! (Politicians) L. Don Oliver
Oh! such fools, we modern _; Who bask in lies, of the _;
Saying it is, when it isn't ; Off to the bank, they will ;
It's not their money, deceivers care ; As long as it isn't their personal ;
Football or basketball, which should we ___; Or will we be sated, with dope and __;
The poem above is my opinion of the latest passed budget cuts by Congress and the Adminstration.

Persistence! By L. Don Oliver
When I was eight years old, As chubby as I could be; Tommy sent word he wanted To meet under the pecan tree;
The sun was shining brightly, It was a very warm day; I discovered very soon, Tommy was not there to play;
He wanted to fight, And I didn't know why; He swung and missed, And I made him cry;
Happening on several occasions, The outcome was the same; He would start the fracas, And I would end the game;
The last time we met, I didn't have my grip; Tommy swung and hit me, Splitting my upper lip;
It wasn't out of anger, It wasn't just to fight; Tommy kept on trying, Until he got it right;
