You cannot imagine how much I dislike the Treasury and banks. They have ruined many people's lives, because they show no mercy to anyone. They can leave you homeless, just because you have lost your job, and cannot pay the money that they ask for. It is no use telling them that you need more tim...

By Miscellany | 22-01-2022 | Sports Betting
Today I will talk about sports betting jargon, which can be useful for learners of English, and for those that are not familiarised with those terms. I have visited the following website: onlinebetting.nz, and I have come across the words below:

By Miscellany | 21-01-2022 | Sports Betting
It is a fact that many people like playing the lottery, doing the pools, gambling at casinos, betting on sports, and so forth. Some of them even dream of becoming rich, which is a long shot.
Some types of gambling, such as playing roulette or slots, do not require any previous knowledge...
29. Lottery and Sports Betting (1320 times seen)
By Miscellany | 21-01-2022 | Sports Betting
The word lottery has two meanings:
1. Governments sell lottery tickets as a way of raising money. They have a number printed on it. If you buy a winning number, you win a cash prize. If you win the first prize, it will make you rich. However, as you know, that is the same as looking for a needle ...
30. Shaken Words (1218 times seen)
By Josep Maria Garolera Carreras | 15-01-2022 | Poems
No sad light inside this golden eye. No long finger pointing to the end of nothing.
And the mad man cried out, inside the heavy walled room, like a bird trapped
in a cage, like a man tied to a family.
White clouds like cotton sealing the landscape, and at the mountain top,
a woman scream...

Gary Beck/Purpose
Assessment
I sit among the aged, infirm,
in the hospital room
and know I am aged, infirm.
Unlike some I do not cry:
'where did the time go?'
I know where it went.
A lot of excitement.
A lot of fulfillment.
Frustrat...
32. Where is justice? (1594 times seen)
By Miquel Molina i Diez | 03-05-2021 | Pseudopoems
Where is justice?
I find her nowhere,
but she does not seem to care.
Where is justice?
I have looked for her everywhere,
but she is to be found nowhere.
Where is justice?
She does not appear to exist,
but some people want to make us believe she does.
Where is justice?

33. Maybe (1474 times seen)
By Josep Maria Garolera Carreras | 02-04-2021 | Poems
Seven days, seven drinks, seven nights and seven nightmares.
Seven flowers, just only one for you, seven storms and seven shipwrecks.
Seven headaches, all of them for you, seven weapons and just one wound.
Seven armies to do nothing, seven deserts and seven losts.
Seven chairs and nobody...

Gary Beck/Lacerations
Oglescope
The weather is still warm enough
for women to wear short skirts,
tight tops, bare midriffs,
a visual pleasure
for those who care to look,
soon to be removed
with the first chill of fall.
Ponderous Changes
In the ...

Gary Beck/Learning Curve
Urban Reaches
Alone in a great city
strangers pass,
intent on jobs, crime,
shopping, terror.
I know not what.
They all look remote,
don’t say ‘good morning’,
don’t meet my gaze,
except the hostiles,
when I qu...

37. Calm Before the Storm (1545 times seen)
By Josep Maria Garolera Carreras | 28-08-2020 | Poems
No birds singing, no leaves swinging; oh baby, it's the calm before the storm.
No lightened houses, no cars running, no people wandering the streets;
I tell you, brother, it's the calm before the storm.
No breathings emitted, no sounds heard, no words spoken;
take it for granted,...

By Josep Maria Garolera Carreras | 07-06-2020 | Poems
Come with me lonely cowboy,
come with me for a walk,
I'll show you lovely things
You've never seen before.
Both of us know what's the matter,
She's gone away, she's gone away and won't ever come back.
So, forget her pale blue eyes, her long blonde hair, and ...

Gary Beck/Fractional Disorder
Dread
In the prevailing climate
of imminent destruction
of civilization,
it may no longer be
in our nature
to save ourselves
before it is too late.
Exploration
I will no longer go
down to the river,
follow its flow...

Mickey Mouse is in the house,
and it's alright, it's alright, it's alright now, everything is right now,
Mickey Mouse is in the house, he's come back right now,
and he's bleeding, he's bleeding, and the lonely rose set in the middle of the sitting room,

Celebration
Independence Day
may have meant
more in the 1780’s,
liberty just won,
a new nation
not yet as corrupt,
oppressive,
as the old world,
new citizens hopeful
the eloquent promise
of new government
would bring freedom.

Gary Beck/Transitions
Do As I Say
Primitive man
didn't understand
the nature of the universe
and developed superstitions
when answers were needed
to make sense of life.
When tribes gave way
to church and state
the new leaders
promptly took charge

43. Dark Future (2648 times seen)
By Miquel Molina i Diez | 14-08-2018 | Pseudopoems
Year 2164.
Computers, mobile phones, and the like, are a thing of the past.
Microchips, which were implanted in our heads, govern our minds, our thoughts, our health, and everything we do.
There is no escape.
There is no privacy.
They can read our minds.
We are being indoctrinated....
44. Break me like a horse (2295 times seen)
By Peaches Alexander | 28-07-2018 | Poems
A gentle breaking takes time
Ironically time is what we’ve had the most of
Both time and gentleness breeds trust
A horse and his rider slowly learning to gallop together
The bit is placed in her mouth first,
Leading by example yet steadily steering
The stallion to the pasture of his drea...

By Peaches Alexander | 28-07-2018 | Poems
After my shower I lay on my bed
wondering why depression is visiting again
my life is on track and I'm living my fame
but somehow I'm stuck in this purple-haze
My mind starts to wander about cousin Andre'
he put a rifle in his mouth
while he was in college
then my thoughts switche...

By Peaches Alexander | 28-07-2018 | Poems
My sugar walls are asking for your
bitter walls to stop blocking your heart
The Wall of China cannot compare to the magnitude of
your wall,
I declare
Walls make people fall,
ask Humpty
The fast pace of Wall street can't
describe how quickly you replace your lovers
Lovers with no faces

48. The Things That Women Carry... (2405 times seen)
By Peaches Alexander | 28-07-2018 | Poems
The things that women carry
are all hidden inside.
The closet of no-end
holds the tears of our lives.
From the unborn children
to our most secret fears.
The threat of their exposure
seems to always be near.
Some of us wear acrimonious exteriors
while others transpose themselves
into pass...

I heard a voice
and guess what it said?
Sticky get away from my young man,
Why do people have to use mean words
2 get their point across, Absurd!!
Somebody told me just the other day,
that a Faggot had come their way,
U don't even know them well
And you're telling them to burn in...
