Panagiota Romios Poet Rhyme

Point the Finger At Your Chest

               ~POINT THE FINGER AT YOUR CHEST~





        What have you done lately,
        For your community?
        Have you gone out and helped the poor?
        Or are you, just a selfish, vain boor?

        You want a change in your nation?
        It's up to you to make a difference, not be
        simply, "a mouth sensation!"

        We should rally great citizen troops.
        I am tried of blaming political nincompoops.

       Don't worry, I do write poems about leaders, many!
       But who responds to political spoofs?

       Very, rare courageous few, if any.

       We all, our arses we want cowardly covered.
       So political poets, like me, get on a hit
       list and are smothered!

       But I don't care, but don't you see?
       When you smother me, you smother thee?

       So phenomenal is this inane drive to be popular here.
       All poetical love, like useless junk in a car, slammed into 
       the rear!

                                   9/7/2021

Tom Cunningham September 10, 2021 at 10:19 AM It costs nothing to show a bit of kindness towards others. I'll always give someone a hand if they need it, one day I might need a hand.

Joseph P. DiMino September 9, 2021 at 7:40 PM As you say, a prayer without action is much less diminished. We must put our souls and bodies where our mouths are -- "God helps those...." etc.. I ran a non-profit for years, never took a salary -- I thing there were my true riches. Blessings my friend. Panagiota Romios September 14, 2021 at 2:17 AM 9/14" 2amsorry Joe for a late response, see mt response to Tom, above, please That plus days if not feeling well. Hope to get back in gear. I also did years of non profit worl. Working in a locked psyche ward, was the scariest. Panagiota. But people on tbe outside are very looney. See our current administration in DC. Such liars and killers Panagiota
