Premium Member President Biden's Four Years

It seems that Biden's term soon goes,
And is replaced by whom? Nobody knows.
  So may I meekly propose
  He who now controls,
That Devil from hell, George Soros.

Craftspeople, Creativity, Family - Happy Bday Mom

I
You have a vivid mind, heart, vocabulary
A lover of God, I make excuses (true, right)
Yes, South Africa fails us in electricity
Still, Shakespeare worked by candlelight

II
I admire my sisters who do romance
Sometimes sultry, often beauty in loyalty
You mix French idioms, native Americanism
I am awed, humbled, in the land of Steinbeck, Poe, Emily Dickinson 

Note: 
1. Dear PS writers and visitors, keep working on your craft. The Earth needs it.
2. RiP Mom, passed in 2005, aged 64, but today is my unschooled mom's birthday. I respect all women, my wife, daughters ... Because of my mom's unschooled wisdom, love for family, & creativity

Premium Member Ways and Means 2

Violence is neither the way nor the means to an end
In a Democratic Republic.  However, non violent protest
Is a protected right under the constitution of the United 
States, and the cause need not be righteous to be deserving                  
of protected rights status.  Any cause, righteous or otherwise.                        must be protected not because it is popular but because it is                            
Simply a right under the constitution as per the Supreme Court            Interpretation.

A Republican was once heard indicating that he would never vote
For a particular presidential candidate who was a democrate, but
He would go to war to protect his right to run for president.  That
Is the true meaning of Americanism.

Hello y'all,
no more cherry-picking
and double speak,
it just ain't right !

Say,dude,
are you out to lunch?
your dialect 
is pure music!

Fair dinkum though,
strine it is not,
nor polite English,
more an Americanism!

Ok, it's pc ,I grant
a royal shibboleth,
douable grammar
and all that jazz!

What? What's that you 
say?
Speechcraft is in your dna 
!

This  is a poem based on 
history of one hundred 
English words, now part of 
our language.A National 
newspaper invited 
poems to include at least 
25.This is my attempt.
