Harry Is A Poet

The aliens came to destroy us, which was only fair
We'd been instituting polluting without a care
We'd been renegades of morality, aka the human race
The rest of destiny would not be ours to face
Howeve…

Once more, my friends, is all it takes
Muster energy once more for all our sakes
Once more is all it needs to be
Until we shall be once more free
Once more, those old words of inspiration
Just once more …

The greatest of all sins is pride. And so I must confess

That, deep down inside, I felt great duress

That I found the scene before me impossible to explain

To not be able to say what I had seen cause…

Run, run, run, run

The time to move has just begun

Though to some it may not seem fun

You'll change your thoughts when I am done

Ok, let me paint a picture for you

You are young, energetic, and liv…

He was the magician, his tricks you'd never realise

You could get an optician to double check your eyes

You could see a psychiatrist to examine your brain

Who'd heartily insist you were indeed quite …

It's one of the few times in its insanity, humanity hasn't lied

When it acknowledged as homage our greatest sin is pride

We like to pretend our philosophy is unique, it's hypocrisy

That our culture h…

Y'know. For a population so diverse, so varied, so fantastic. We use a lot of labels.

Wherever we go, with whomever we converse, we like to keep our reality stable.

We make matches, avoid mixes, we c…

If today is not the day we die, then let it be a day worth living

Before the world should pass us by, for time is unforgiving

There's action we can take, paths that we may choose

There are smiles tha…

I would like you all to realise how fantastic democracy is

And yes, I know it's flawed. I know there are many different democratic systems.

I know there are those whose voices I do not want governing…

Don't get me wrong. I'm amazed at the Sun. I really am.

I don't really understand the physics. Or the chemistry.

I just know it as a big ball of fire in the sky above me.

I know it's been here from l…

Stop if you've heard this one a few times before

The re-tale of those who clean and mop the floor

The deja vu of the cashier's day

Just sit back and press "replay"

I said stop me, if you've already …

They're working, working. On computers and paper
But I'm working too, serving caffeine to their flavour
I see all types, observe every Mrs and Mister
So listen to the tales of the coffee shop barista.
T…

You wasted three seconds reading this line

Another two on this one.

We need to be careful with how we spend out time

Whether on learning or fun.

Our purse of time is not predetermined

Yet it will ha…

Pitter patter pitter patter goes the rain on the window
Howl and whistle, can you hear the wind blow?
Thud and splat as the rain raises it's attack
Now there's a solid connection as the hail makes co…

Practical exercise time.
You've probably done it before courtesy of a tired teacher
Now courtesy of this rhyme
I want to re-execute this exercise in enlightment like a preacher

Are you ready? Do you …

I'm sure you've heard the big names before
The classics, the greats, the best for ever more
The ones who stand out from an ever growing crowd
The ones who you'd love to know and make proud

Well put …

It's not often that the death of someone you've never met affects you so personally. This. This is one of those times.

My first steps on the Discworld were shaky
I wasn't sure if I'd take a firm foo…

He was a fixed learner
Never was a yearner
Always put his dreams
on the backburner

She had a growth mindset
Would start to get upset
If the last thing she'd done
Wasn't the best she'd done yet

He t…

Had I been a girl, I wonder how my life would be
All I know is my name - I'd have been known as Hermione
My birth would've brought gender balance to my family
So my parents would have 2 boys, and 2 g…

I took the slow route today
It's odd, but I think I liked it.

It turns out, the place that I live is remarkably beautiful.
The sun can indeed shimmer, if you look at it right.
If neither of you are …
