"Twisted"

Life is like a twisted trunk

Yearning to be free

Once you have removed the junk

You can become a tree.

"Tricks"

I want to join SEAL Team Six

Perhaps I could be of use

Once I learn all of their tricks

I'd change my name to Bruce.

"Gloat"

The last thing I need is another boat

But that doesn't keep me from looking

You can be sure I'd never gloat

Of charters I'll be booking.

"Brutal"

My convertible needs a new top

Other than that, it's fine

What looks to the World like a brutal chop

Was part of the design.

"Sharks"

Yes, sharks really do attack sailboats

Why would they do such a thing?

Could be mistaken identity

   (or they're just trying to prove who's king).

"Excessive"

Man cited for excessive speed in Sheffield

He was doing 105

40 miles over the speed limit?

   (he's lucky to be alive).

"Cruelest"

April is the cruelest month

Like the poet says

But he found no rhyme for "month"

   (so he added "breeding").
