Elena Eagle Poet Free verse

Lying La Times

In California where the dream is of sunshine, and ocean beaches
There are those who drape themselves in the freedom of the presses
However they use that ink to create fake think
How dare people want a new leader who dares to think!
As the recall of Newsom nears
They work to create fake fears
The slander and lies about Larry Elder is brought by a cowardly bunch
An ivory tower group who enjoys Sunday brunch
He is a self made man who grew up in South Central LA!
Walked his own path and built his own fate
Don't forget to vote next week
Larry Elder will bring back the California dream for weeks and weeks

Paulette Calasibetta November 19, 2021 at 9:42 AM I share you sentiment Elena, I don't live in Ca. but I see the vast corruption which is spreading throughout our nation. I am sorry I didn't see this sooner....an excellent write that should have gone viral! You might want to stop by my page, I have several poems about the corruption going on in this country. Blessings, Paulette Elena Eagle November 30, 2021 at 6:01 PM I so appreciate your kind words.

Andrea Dietrich October 18, 2021 at 11:38 AM I'm sorry that lies are being created about a good man. It's being done constantly now in our media. False stories being told to all the world in all lands. All we can do is stand up and tell the truth of what is happening. Keep up the fight! Elena Eagle November 9, 2021 at 7:51 AM Andrea - thank you. Yes we must continue to fight.

Gershon Wolf October 16, 2021 at 9:01 PM Write on, Elena! ... Next time, you can hit on the Washington Post, the New York Times, and / or the Chicago Sun Times. They're all of the same smirky, lying ilk, rarely checking sources if their story fits their leftist narratives. ~ gw Elena Eagle November 9, 2021 at 7:52 AM Thank you. Yes there is plenty of material to choose from on this topic.

Joseph P. DiMino September 10, 2021 at 8:37 AM Excellent! Right on! You speak truth to power. I have no doubt, that if a fair election, Larry will easily destroy Newsom. But with these mail in ballots (great potential for fraud), I fear he will have no chance. He should not concede at any time until a thorough signature verification of each and every ballot. Elena Eagle September 20, 2021 at 6:11 AM Thank you so much!

Panagiota Romios September 8, 2021 at 1:41 PM Excellent, Elena! I live in your state also. The Left wants more killings, more homeless and the right to steal? Prosecutors let killers walk free? The idea of a Black man who made it out of the ghetto without government is not acceptable? No, not here! Panagiota xxoo I applaud you for bring this up. Ca stinks under Newsom. 182,000 poeople left Ca under Newsom. I pray people are not sitting on their brains as the state burns, crops die, and we are running out of water.
