That sounds like you know Easy Beat. On the tennis court he is a legend of great wit, and return hits.
When the the Easy Beat Film comes out will we have Peter Fonda playing Easy Beat.
I want Jack Nicholson to play me.

So are you suggesting something like: Waiata Wahine Moderator?
Roger
I think the Uke-A-Lady moderator is the best title it has nice flow to it.. Wahine Waiata doesnt have a flow to it and wasnt meant as a name sugestion, I was just comenting on it was nice to have a Kiwi moderator. Kiwi is a New Zealand Native bird and also the word Kiwi is a name for a New Zealander. When New Zealanders and Australians get together we refer to ourselves as Ozzies and Kiwis. I also know that folks overseas refer to Kiwi Fruit as a Kiwi.

Topic: Easy Beat (6 replies, posted in Poems)
This a few words about running into Easy Beat on a street in Wellington.
Easy Beat
Standing on Salamanca Road talking to Easy Beat.
On a street next to Vic University with passing clever feet,
Talking about music and poetry from a working mans seat.
Enlightening me about words that are poetry does Easy Beat.
Before my feet move on marching to their own beat.
Cheeky Tuis calling at us.
Rustling away on branches looking for nector.
Distracting us for a minute while we consider the tunes and lyrics of life.
Passing thoughts.
Next to passing traffic rushing by, we take our time.
Enjoying a moment not letting it pass too quick.
He has a tennis ball to chase.
I have a public servants job to complete.
We are not off just to compete we just want to be complete.
Thank you friend for your time on the street.
Thats me and my friend Easy Beat.

Re: Cheap Thrills (6 replies, posted in Poems)
That is a great piece on todays throw away society and craft skills now relegated to history.
I dont want to hear songs writen by computers.
I dont want a computerised love.
I want real human love.
Love of a real person.
The rest of life has been overtaken by cheap and thats all we can affford.
First it was cheap labour overseas that took our jobs.
Now it is technology objects created by passionless machines.

Re: Progress? (8 replies, posted in Poems)
I like what you are saying Tenement the world outlook of young criminals has subtly been shaped or brainwashed into them by the constant negative bombardment that entertainments subtly place into their susceptible brains. Also the new generation of so called Reality Stars seem to get more media coverage then thery deserve. People famous for been famous with no real talent or good character.
