2 Timothy 4:3-4:4
For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. So, they will turn their ears away from truth and turn aside to myths.
The practitioners of “The Big Lie”
Election results, one must never decry
Let us examine some history
By which we’ll note the hypocrisy
Al Gore in 2000, Hillary in 2016
Stacy Abrams in Georgia did scream
How does one discern what is truth
The good book says examine the fruit produced
Thirty-two million for Mueller to investigate
Months of media claiming Trumps a reprobate
What did this produce folks
It was all a Democrat and media hoax
Impeachment over a phone call to Ukraine
No high crimes or misdemeanors was plain
Hunter’s laptop called Russian disinformation
January 6th labeled an insurrection
No guns, no bombs, not even pitchforks
Capitol Police acting as escorts
If you are unable to see rotten fruit
Providing more evidence is simply moot
Just know that Paul foretold it all
We need a revival, or America will fall

Writing poems in the algorithmic sands
Washed away by rippling waves on unseen sands
hoping in my drowning one will save me
Or at least a kindly reader someday “fave” me.

Some voters found him an incredible bore
Others thought him arrogant to the core
But one thing about Al Gore that I'll always adore
The man invented the Internet ~ He swore!

Al created the algorithm
One late night as Tipper danced with him
The thought came by chance
As they freestyle danced
Initially dubbed "Al Gore Rhythm!"

Al Gore Jr. set out to save the world
His plan to stop climate change, he unfurled --
But since stopping emissions
Depends on politicians --
He's selling motorized scooters instead

INTRO: - As Al Gore once said - and I agree because I have read
It’s our World and down to mankind’s choices, to take care of what we were gifted
To save this speck called planet Earth, from what we all probably deserve
If our blue planet does not survive, it means that we just let it die, and all because we never tried
We can though still change our inaction, to worldwide positive actions, so that we maybe get some traction
To try and save all of life and the home that we all live on
From the threat of extinction

Getting broiled in the daytime
And slow-cooked at night,
Could it be that
Al Gore was right?

brocoli rob
smoke the hemp
the day after that mechanical man Al Gore took the stand
I couldn't cry over Bourdain
tried to see what he was up to next but it was too late
a Chinese man was in the alley taking a pee pee
just after elder Bush touched some bush he gets in trouble again
this time was his friend Dan Quayle in drag
the truth can hurt at times so refined never second guessing
I'll start professing a good cause to come clean living in a land of mean
Bourdain was for Bourdain so why should we complain
the guy was totally insane taking his own life for the sake of what ?
you make me want to throw up in mouth blame, ***** & pout
the beautiful thing is when the fat lady sings but sorry it still isn't over then
got fish for frying and i'm not lying
environmental sound like Dan Quayle in a gown
stick it to the man who once said,"Yes We Can"!
more drama for your momma in comes homeboy Obama
Trump is busy working with the wall trying to stand up ten feet tall
Cold piss sorry that I missed a sacred kiss with a hero in our mist.

Dan's on the mezzanine
asking where the mayor lives
I'm on the dole line,
wondrin bout conservatives
The man with the leg cramps
boot camps wheel clamps
says they cut his food stamps.
Look out son,
he’s packin a gun:
God knows why
Pat Boone, full moon
someone's gonna die soon.
Del's on welfare,
Donald Trump is real pissed:
give 'em all health care?
What are we? Socialists?
Thinks I'm Harry Lime:
street crime, sub-prime,
now you're working part-time.
Look out boy,
you're only a goy:
don't revere teachers,
don't obey no preachers.
Jen's on Fox News
talkin bout the bank crash
wanna get some real views?
What about the trailer trash?
Read about Goldilocks
Botox bobbysocks
modelled by Amanda Knox.
Look out, Joe,
you're spoiling the show.
Don't watch features,
don't dance in the bleachers.
Get hired, get fired,
get rich, get stitched,
get tired, get wired,
get hitched, get ditched.
They got the cops at backstop,
Al Gore keeping score
'tween the Poors
and Dirt-Poors,
'tween the Haves
and Have-Mores.
John Wayne's vanished.
He's off to learn Spanish.

Planet Clean
We wander in portals to fill the cosmic scene
To explode with laughter on the base of nice
Another chance at which to roll the dice twice
In search of clean in our atmosphere up above
We have decorated pictures in vast loop holes
Some have even treasured a red rose that was plucked before
Out of sadness we have formed mere gladness to one another
Silence is a weapon formed to it's beckoning call
Planet Clean in the corner of our room not to soon
Snap shot moments from our past that it would last
Green Peace & Al Gore would both agree
What is the base for this humble plea
It's a matter of heart to light the spark to what I'm waiting for
Some shadows lurk at the edge of the door not willing to explore
We are each given a voice to turn the wrong to right
The thought of oil distribution on a beach of humble birds
The o zone layer should be as sharp as a nail
Be free from the liter & soon we'll discover a rainbow in the dark
Share with your neighbor the love of our planet from sea to shining sea

No Nuke's !
You have polluted are o zone with your hair spray & gas
No one in this life gets by on any free pass
Become a gentleman by not sticking it to the man
When will we understand the great man with the plan
We stand sideways with one hand holding onto the plow
A whole chorus of singers in a vast auditorium
We must learn to embrace love & forget the hate
Shattered dreams filtered scene through the vast land of mean
People out of touch in a 21st century in quite a rush
There's a voice with the famed Al Gore lest I implore
Heavy voices with eyes of tombstone in their head
The fallen dead having viscous fangs that bite such a fright
Lest I implore another opened door by which to explore
There's a sign on the door post of the wall
Yet there's still no true voice anymore so very 1964
Let's learn from the past so we won't repeat the same mistakes
An evil mind that plugs destruction sending to the masses a fright
Have we forgotten about the twin towers maybe time for a cold shower

CHASING FOOTPRINTS
Some feet are bigger than others
none bigger than those
left by your brothers -
that you tried to fill.
The foot that Dad
would put “right up ‘ur ****”
and the one Mom said
you must put forward.
The meter and feet
we poetically treat
in attempt to conform
to rhythm and beat.
One foot we must
“take out of our mouth”,
while trying to get
“one foot in the door”.
Footprints that litter
the sands of our mind
that cannot be followed
by looking behind.
The foot of the stairs
the foot of the bed
the footsteps of night
the footsteps of dread.
Huge footprints of carbon
Al Gore and his ilk
charging the cows
for the grass to make milk.
One foot on the gas
One foot on the brake
one looking to give
one looking to take.
So don’t judge the size
or the depth of the root
nor measure the soul
by the size of the boot.

Encased in thick ice
Sparrow shivers, sad demise
Flowers had emerged
Once colorful, now turned brown
Snowy carpet for Easter
Frozen bunny dies
Easter egg hunts ‘neath snow mounds
Sun plays hide and seek
Bunny’s obit cites “death knell”
Meaning of Easter recalled
Ma Nature fooled us
Groundhog needs unemployment
The weatherman lied
Al Gore has hidden away
Ice age, not global warming

One of the most gallant stands of courage and undying self-sacrifice which has been handed man through the pages of history is the defense of the Alpolvo what global warming would look like if it were true not a polar vortex well some one correct for scientist the problem is a dust bowl Dust Bowl, also known as the Dirty Thirties without certainties Remember the Alpolvo and the funny paper would not read Al Gore snores in an igloo in Tijuana
