What Am I

Wandering in the throbbing
tunnels of my soul.


Why on earth do I write?
To a silent world that neither
can I hear nor see.


Just pictures frozen of them frozen in time,
Who pen free verses or in rhyme.


A computer? That I am not.
What am I then, in a world that avoids humanity?


A thing who bows down gracefully
When only a notification sound rings?


Is this that stunning new world of reality?
Let me out~ give me the key!

The fake News loves to bash Trump. Not new. They along with the Dems even blame death on him. Biden might drink bleach, as he does not know what day or state he is in. Other leaders are under attack too. That's the public for you, inane. The death rate is so full of malarkey and it equals to the Black Death. Have never seen the world the world so plumb idiotic, Panagiota xx

Ha, ha! In another generation or so, embryos will have devices implanted long before birth. Let's see if the lefties will abort those embryos... Eh -- of course they will, all the more so. They're hopeless. :) gw

Wowser! That's some futuristic and imaginative thinking. If we are so concerned about deaths from the virus, why do we keep killing babies everyday? A woman's right s bigger than the right to peaceful assembly, to worship as we please, to attend school? Worst of all masks that virus pass right threw.? And Being demeaned by poets here from Chicago for not being a slave to demonic crazy governors. Let them be. I am not the property of any governor. Panagiota xx

Ah, a nation is with you! Joe. We are social animals. Moreover, we need other souls, up to us to take our freedom back. Living in a blue state that adores imprisonment...and being a free spirit is taxing. This I~can tell you! I do NOT need to be saved. To see insanity in action, take a peek at C-Span.Lunatics in masks! Grow up, people! Panagiotaxx
