On Poetic Knees

Be silly, be mad, be crazy, have fun! Above all, reality, thou must shun! Ah, yes, the smell of a lone daisy. The sun rising in the sky.. Don’t ever pen of the black cloud of censorship. That dances over American skies in a secret flagship. Write of history and its great sorrows, But never, never about this days nor tomorrows. Such freedoms we do have right now! But we sell our souls to please all one and all. And some, on on poetic knees do joyfully grovel!

Life isn't all roses, we have the means to call out wrongdoings in the past and present. Tom

Agree totally. And too many sheep, Afraid to call out wrong doings. Now, especially, when any word by a citizen,labels them via the Cancel Culture, Woke is a horrendous joke. Just present day Nazis who adore their Hitler. Just Like him, a lunatic..,no leader is God! They are out to destroy God and promote evil Pangie xx
