Downtowns Deflowered

Condemnation, confrontation
  Nasty, no-compromise nation

Protestors plentiful, a passel irruptive
  Ornery out-of-towners, so disruptive

Downtowns deflowered in
  Portland Chicago, Seattle
Lawless looters ~
  Time to skedaddle

Sigrid Ermine Date: 8/23/2020 7:57:00 PM Hey! Clever rhyme. You have a sophisticated way of simplifying serious stuff so all may benefit from your wise viewpoint. Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 5:45:00 PM You have a way of writing a comment to make the recipient feel like he's walking on water for a while. Thank you so much, Sigrid! ~ On Cloud Nine

Arturo Michael Date: 8/23/2020 4:49:00 PM The veil has been removed...exposed, I pray for the healing of a nation...a great nation... Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 8:05:00 PM Thanks for the prayers. The USA really needs them. Peace and Prosperity, Arturo. ~ Gershon

Heidi Sands Date: 8/23/2020 3:20:00 PM You are right, so disruptive and many wishes this will stop! I hope you are well. Take care Gershon :) Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 8:06:00 PM Yes... except things just keep getting worse. Look at what's happening in the 'nothing town' of Kenosha, WI. (I know Kenosha well. My father was born there). Thanks, Heidi. Here's to health and long life. :) gw

Ilene Bauer Date: 8/23/2020 2:27:00 PM it's a very sad state of affairs, gershon... Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 8:08:00 PM So true... so sad... And now, Kenosha. People just jumping to conclusions without the facts at hand. Rant and rave, rant and rave. Guilty without a trial. Is this America? Sounds like the Old West -- but those 'states' were just territories back then. Oh, well. ~ 'Safe in Chicago' (lol)

John Lawless Date: 8/23/2020 2:23:00 PM Hey, Hey....go easy with those "Lawless" references... Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 8:10:00 PM Couldn't find any other word that worked as well. "Johnless" just didn't cut it for me... ~ gw

Jenna Logan Date: 8/23/2020 1:58:00 PM Everything seems to be turned upside down since February. Disease, weather, killings....I can't even continue listing the horrendous conditions in today's world. Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 8:11:00 PM That's the right term alright, Jenna: upside-down! Thanks for your observation. ~ Topsy and Turvy, :) gw

Judy Ball Date: 8/23/2020 1:47:00 PM Sad and scary times we live in. Prayer is our only hope. One of the reasons I prefer country life to living in a big city. God Bless my friend. JB Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 8:12:00 PM Pretty soon, we won't even be able to enter the city without a passport from 'The Republic of Wokeness.' Far-fetched? Who knows? :) gw

Tom Cunningham Date: 8/23/2020 1:05:00 PM Is there no end to this madness Gershon, I feel sorry for the poor innocent folk caught up in it. Tom Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 6:27:00 PM John's nailed it, Tom. We are ALL guilty of 'white privilege,' those of us who haven't gotten a 'race-change-operation,' anyway. lol. ~ Gershon John Lawless Date: 8/23/2020 2:22:00 PM according to the "peaceful demonstrators" no one is "innocent"

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 8/23/2020 12:43:00 PM - Looting and chaos ... a scary time, Gershon - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 6:25:00 PM You can smile over there in Scandinavia for now, Anne-Lise. Just hope that Biden loses; otherwise we're going to be exporting our 'virtues' -- BLM squads and waves of 'woke-sters' will be roving the world. Chaos at your front door. Am I kidding?! I'm not really sure at this point. Anything's possible... :) gw

Jan Allison Date: 8/23/2020 12:21:00 PM what a sad state of affairs GW:-( makes me glad i live on a tiny safe island:-) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/24/2020 6:22:00 PM Ha, ha, ha! You just think it's safe. If Biden wins the election and the Democrats take the U.S. Senate, 'woke' white liberals and BLM will be coming to a neighborhood near you! (Even Greenland's not safe). Watch your 'white privilege' there! lol. It's happening here all over. At least you'll be spared the 'Reparations Revolution!' :) gw
