Catching the worm

Recycle: tr.v., -cled, -cling, -cles.

1. The process of taking abandoned material out of initial context and re use it to create/explore ‘new’ (possible/awkward) intent.



When you’re in for a penny,
ignorance is bliss
but when you’re in for a pound
- in the land of the blind -
it is always darkest
if two ride a horse and
you must ride behind

Before dawn, Rome
– which was built
.. a stitch in time
.. by long friends
.. saving nine
.. short reckonings –
can not serve two masters
when one eyed man
is still king from an armchair
and asks no questions

It’s therefore
the pen makes a healthy man
mightier
than the wealthy and wise

For whose tongue wounds more
than lance and sword?
The never too old to learn
or the early to bed and early to rise?

When the going gets tough
actions speak louder
than telling you no lies

Or is it … gold is not its own reward
it's the early bird that glitters
when the tough get ready
to kill one to worn a hundred
and doing it virtually, in a day
… with words


;-)
