Propaganda is Alive and Well in the USA

Information is not always true
Even if printed in the newspaper blue
But if it’s on the internet, it is right? Some think
Why would they print lies in permanent ink?

It’s called propaganda, you silly peeps
Subliminal clips brainwash you while you sleep
You are so gullible, our country is a laughing stock
For ten thousand dollars, I can sell you

Poetry Is Hot, Alive and Well

Poetry is not dead
Poetry will never die
Poets do not lie
Poetry is naturally well-fed
With vibrant poems every second
Of the day to make the soil more fecund
The brain is alert and strong
Nothing can possibly go wrong
Poetry is ubiquitous
Poetry is sexy and serendipitous
Poetry is eternal
Poetry is sentimental
Poetry is empirical
Poetry is spiritual
Poetry will live forever
And Poets will never fear

Alive and Well

To whomsoever it may concern,
something to truly discern.
 God is alive and well this day,
don't forget to kneel and pray.
 Some say that there is no God,
while in their darkness they trod.
 Blind from within they can't see,
yet want to lead you and me.
 If they can't find a way to deceive,
they try to steal

The Devil Alive and Well

They are dying
in the gutters of China,
welded into apartment cages – 
children dismembered from the
arms of pleading mothers, 
protesters pushed back by tanks~
oh well, a few get squashed...
too many people anyway,
environmentalists are silent
in agreement – 

a complicit US media, those
flamboyant parrots with jeweled 
wings, spouting government's lingo,
having gladly exchanged crumbly crackers 
for meaty bones, expendable

Romance Alive and Well

Time, chameleon illusion–
glosses over each hurtful slur
corralling each warm memory
to morph the past to one grey blur.

Emotional paralysis
senses dulled from desolation.
Suddenly comes along the buoy
in the middle of an ocean.

You found me or did I find you
against the odds we two should meet
neither looking, just two souls lost
--love, the mystery bittersweet.

The rules have changed along

Slave Auctions, Alive and Well In a North Carolina School

A K-8 school, J.S. Waters, was roundly chastised today
  Its students held a 'mock' slave auction
This happened in March, in North Carolina, in the year 2022
  White students sold black students as slaves, and used the n-word too

One boy went for $350, later he was clubbed with a baseball bat
  So, if

Victims of the Cancel Culture Part Two

George Orwell wrote a book entitled 1984. It was about one man, who stood alone, against Big Brother. Big Brother had its own surveillance society and used television screens. People had numbers but no names. In the end even our one hold out, gave up and claimed to love Big Brother. Out of his need

Alive and Well

Living won’t be yours if you are dead
Sunny days wouldn’t be a blessing to you 
If it is cloudy
Joy wouldn’t be so happy if there is doubt
Seeing won’t be your sight
If it wasn’t for the dark
Walking won’t benefit if
You had no legs
Talking wouldn’t serve
If you were silence
So enjoy all these while you are alive and

Santa Jesus Alive and Well

Christmas Jesus alive and well
Santa takes a back door seat
Hanukkah included, swell.
Friends of all persuasions cannot be beat.

December comes but once a year.
Christmas Jesus alive and well.
Decorations all over my dear.
Bethlehem story easy to tell.

Kwanza is prevalent, an easy sell.
Faithful followers breaking bread.
Christmas Jesus alive and well.
Some so rigid; ideas are dead.

Let us admire each

Nineteen Seventies Alive and Well

bell bottom blue jeans
warm belly button showing
nineteen seventies

woodstock mad music
vietnam war in full swing
youth rebelling now

free love is rampant
people living in communes
churches pray like mad

usa magic
separation of  our youth
from solid parents

after kennedy
dr martin luther king
turned country wild

youth were change ready
probably the soldiers too
holding breath in swamps

nineteen seventies
color tv was alive
sonny and cher show

assertive women
wait

God Alive and Well

I don’t need a feed of pomp or a creed of fanfare to progress
Cos my God rains treasure trains
Teeming with blessings and fertile feelings to address the plight and stress
That threaten in tens to smuggle into my serenity pesky pains   

I detest as weakness in my knees lurks in the background
Severing thoughts and

Jesus Is Alive and Well Today

Jesus Is Alive And Well Today!

The existence of Jesus, many attempt to deny.
They reject the truth, and accept a corruptible lie.

Christ’ death on the cross, many refuse to believe.
They refuse to acknowledge what he achieved.

Christ’ atonement and resurrection, they won’t accept.
His offer for grace and salvation, they reject.

Won’t you believe the words that he has

Alive and Well and Living In the Crack Houses

Burning twisted battered cells
A thousand needles a thousand hell's
Addiction...affliction... crucifixion...
Who cries for their demons...they do

Empty spaces with empty faces a heart is torn
All the while in denial a new crack baby is born
Come inside...my genocide... suicide...
Who cries for their demons...they do

Aged anger with fermenting lies
Abuses... excuses...no compromise
Ugly sorrow...no new tomorrow...beg steal or borrow
Who cries for

Mom,You Are Still Alive and Well

MOM, YOU ARE SILL ALIVE AND WELL

I miss your smile, the times we shared and the world that
	you opened my eyes to.
I smile at the major ass whippings you put on me in your 
	goal to bring discipline and manhood to me.
The Cherokee in you got wild at times especially if some
	fool disrespected the seven

My Giggle Gene Is Alive and Well

My soft side is showing, must fix that for sure
A jester by birth, so what the hell is the score
Could age be a factor
To be serious ever after
Not likely, my giggle gene will once again soar
