Necessity mothers it!

I  for Inventions

The given words:
mirror ravish stop brush weight vent 
sink tooth cement orange page spoon

Necessity mothers it
Great minds will it
Others mirror it
Entrepreneurs ravish it
Followers stop to think
Many just happen to brush in
Some throw their weight in
to vent their anger
They hope to sink in a bid
They fight tooth and nail
To cement their prowess
on how to make their pile

Not stopping for orange alert
but instead they bulldoze in
picking from a page of discoveries
to spoon unsuspecting consumers
with 'nice to have' inventions

  9. This is so true especially in light of the release of the apple watch, which people are rushing to order. Now everyone thinks they cannot live without that invention. Good thoughts here Hank.

  10. You have really challenged yourself, haven't you? Interesting how what we did not use to have suddenly becomes something we cannot do without.

  13. We need those inventions, and sometimes it requires 1000s of people, at others a single inventor..

  14. sometimes i wonder which of the "inventions" we really need... some are useful but honestly - who needs a cream that makes men's beardhair smooth..
