Some people play the game.
Some people are the game.
Some people live the life,
and some people are just alive.
Some people are fake,
Some people are genuine.
Some people are neither.

Some people can learn.
Some people can teach.
Some people are wise.
Some people are foolish.
What are you?
Who am I?
What assumptions can you make?
How do you know?
What do you know?

Be patient and wise
as a CROCODILE waits for prey.
Don't be too loud
but make yourself heard.
Don't be to quick with an answer.
You might have missed the question.
Opportunities come and go.

TIMING IS EVERYTHING!!

Make life work for you.
THINK ABOUT IT!
Don't just do it.
Don't just grab the bull by the horns.
Grab him somewhere else first.
Make him fear you
then the day is yours.
Dominate yourself and
others will follow you.

Procrastinate purposefully.
You'll get your chance again.
The lessons we learn from
watching the Crocodile hunter.
Apply very well to life.
Wait for what you want.
Then strike and don't let go.

Hope you like it Tre.  This is also for all of my friends who critisize my overanalization of every facet that enters into my life.  You see I'm the Crocodile.

The crocodile hunter? The crocodile? Even with all this weird $#!+ in it, this poem is actually pretty good. But did you pull this one out of your butt or what? Good job.

A thought go unheard,
Let not one heart be broken
Dream of a perfect world.

I liked this poem, very creative. Good job!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Tom, yes I reached way deep into the anal resceses of my mind and pulled this one out.

Erin, Don't worry I'll work on something for you.  Its rare that I get a truly creative bug so when I get one I'll let you know.

Dopey, I do try my friend.  Thanx!

Thanks everybody.
