Aloha poets,

Alliance of Outsiders

One word has a way of planting a seed

As if an apple talks to tell of its need

Two words enchant in ways indelible

To push aside concerns of collegial eligible

Three words find ways to gnaw and pretend

Advertising accepts you even at archipelago bend

Four words can dance you right off the page

Whether blacksmiths or aerosmith be the sage

Five words lets you enter a place called the ledge

Maybe too scary, better back off the edge

Yes, love lets you dance in many fine ways

To find you waiting where society frays

Childhood screams from a darkness of the past

Protection seems as if for only a moment to last

All you are is a symphony in more ways than one

Looking over shoulders to find shiny sun

Recovery won't falter if you only let it run

Yes, the business of beauty never needs a gun

Employment and entertainment call from within

Waiting for clearer signs with vodka and gin

Funny how food can find its own fashion

Even as hurricanes do their loud crashing

Golf balls wait inside their own health bucket

As hurricane Earl heads for Nantucket

Music and learning are where kids find sport

Motivation can be a movie or media report

Can it be the great outdoors is really going extinct?

Only if corporate says so, with a nod and a wink

Leadership finds you in the strangest of ways

Or maybe never, if lindsay lohan fills your days

Mobile and motorola extend a microsoft touch

To offer an alliance of outsiders our own little hutch
