                       Humankind
                         8/9/2023


How oft’ have you been told,  to not
rock the boat!
Just go along as an obedient, mute
billy goat.
Just chew on the green, fresh, cud,
Or smile always , be it in rain or in
thick mud.

This may be peachy keen for goats
you see.
But we are special, we are humanity.
When our  brothers freedom and rights
are being stolen.
We must stand as one, for tis the God of
the Universe to which we are beholden!

This your gem of a poem is a call to arms. A call for us to wake up to this evil in this nation. Government and mainstream media are best friends. Both use propaganda against we citizens to push an agenda that only serves them! Sad and tragic, your verses gives warning. Great poem my good friend and BRAVO!! Anther fav fr me.. God bless you..

Hi Tom…your kind words appreciated. Americans are SILENT on Maui where “generous Joe” gives victims of the fire 700 DOLLARS to rebuild their lives?? And what? Live in a SHED! But the Ukraine has gotten billions! If you are anAmerican you do not count. Joe has never been to Ohio either! He also is plain evil/a friend to China and Muslims. He wants those tell the truth jailed!While he makes millions kissing our enemies! Poets can stand for freedom or lose it. It is what they deserve. Freedom has to be fought for. As writers, we can keep it. Pangie

Great lines here, Pangie. But there are no lines for those who are trying to inform, until there are bread lines. You are always adjusting your message from your poetry tackle box, and it's an admiral endeavour.

Dear David..I wish my tackle box were different, and far more creative. I just re read the poem. I do like it, I cannot bear the lies. News? Most channels are propaganda messages to tell you everything is peachy keen?? The other to scare you about Covid and Cimate change. Not about us facing WWIII. Add the virtue signaling . Pretty sick stuff! Appreciatively, Pangie

Thanks to the COVID lunacy millions have become sheep. It’s like they all lost their brains! Don’t know if it’s coming back to civilization.

COVID+ CLIMATE CHANGE = INSANITY AND SCARED SHEEPLINGS. God is dead! We fear those duo nothings. Meanwhile, the USA wants every state to be abortion friendly. OMG, The United States of Abortion, and can kill a normal, baby fully born. All women need to do is have your tubes tied.! and untied when they get married. Stop killing children.. Thanks, Pangie

Amen, Pangie. Straight to my FAVs list. Love the image you chose to display above your poem. So true and it's happening again right before our eyes. Thanks for sharing this important message! You rock! Bill

I think 5 of us here understand that sign. It’s how Hitler ran Germany, and invaded Europe. The Holocaust happened not only because of him and the hateful Eisengruppen, but because good people said nothing…….worse, lies told by the majority of the media and Facebook and Google, just as Goebbels spread propoganda. In the US, lies all day. It really is sick. We already lost freedoms,a travesty. Even the military won’t say a word.most will blow this poem off. We don’t deserve to live like this. Deep thanks, Bill…Pangie

Sooner or later, I think that we can forget about this 'party' or that 'party,' because events will shake out according to who controls the more brutal military. Just look at Ukraine and Russia. It's a fairly even fight over there, because both militaries' soldiers are historically brutal, anti-Semitic beasts!

The sigm refers to the NAZI party. Nothing to do with us.But mirrors us close enough. Hitler talked against Jews. Biden can’t stop theWhite hatred. Spin race, wealth, Spin haters 24/7. The Ukraine does not have the history of the USA. And anti Semitism is growing here. But nobody cares.thanks, PR
