Welcome to, Salutations from,  Obi Wan Can'obie Layke Park Google Blog,

an online magazine published weekly, tackling the hard hitting current events,

sharing photos of sunshine and lollipops and...

a man and his thoughts...

and the one blog in billions that dares to tell it like it is and presents...

the answer to the question,

what, how, were we writing 10 years ago?

Let us jump into the H. G. W. brand Time Machine

and set the dials for May 2013

a year in which we undertook the dreaded...

365/365 Poetry Challenge,

write, on average, 1 Poem a Day, for 365 Days.

Here are some select selections from this week ten years ago.

Still Scraping Windshields

Spring has sprung,

the grass is riz,

beaks have sung,

I know where the birdies is;

trees have leaves hung,

but, it seems Easter's lost,

have Faith, Spring has sprung,

never mind the frost.

eat a pear

while you pare away the layers of meaning.

Fashion...Turns to the Right

Young men, with shoulder length locks

free or pulled back in a ponytail,

ears pierced, silver, gold, and diamonds,

hoops and studs, sparkling lobes,

a similar motif lacing neck,

are viewed as Rebels,

long hair and jewelry on the male

symbols of the,

Rebellious Outcast of Polite Society.

However,

today, businessmen

are similarly adorned

and accepted,

which means, Rebel Styles,

are now, Status Quo...

and explains,

face piercing and tattooing.

Rebels, get with it, man,

there's no social ban

on long haired, bejeweled men,

or body art in permanent pen,

these days, dress as plain as you can.

There's a guy called Mike

who rode a mountain bike

until one tragic day

a truck got in the way

and now he rides a trike.
