Success
by Ms Fletcher (pen name)

Son, you have accomplished many goals
and there are many steps ahead of you.
I know you, you will succeed because
you have the strength to endure the long race.
What is success, you asked one day
you were small and had heard the word
in a movie. First, I said, achieving
what you set out to do, and doing it well.
Two years went by, what is success?
A famous guardian of wealth disappeared;
he was not successful, he was a criminal.
He should have been honorable and valiant.
Reach for the outermost stars
never forget the ten commandments
live righteously and never cheat
you will be a successful person.
This, my son, is what I know you to be.
Live by your word, honor what you say.
Never quit, learn more, give your all.
This is the man you are, I see it everyday.

Voodoo
based on The Bannibal One's Narlens
by [pen name] Ms Jessica Fletcher

Way down south in New Orleans
when there was a voodoo queen
brewing, stirring was going fine,
till somebody spiked her wine.
There was a moment of shock
when the music turned to Bach.
No more drums were beating loud
a murmur in the giant crowd.
Saw her eyes swell up and smelled a stench,
Her spell backfired; her body wrenched.
Never say no one warned you,
of the witches in the blue bayou.
