How come "Semitic" be "anti-Semitic"! Give me a break shall yeah
Not Happy
This morning on a site. we saw the hotel where
Hemingway stayed to write an important book
We wait to see which bed he slept in, also
it is an ad when a site feels the need to out-basing
such triviality
In the newspaper, that day was struck the sameness
how articles were written "We need to talk about"
and so on
We are told of a Ukraine war, not the reason only
that Russia wants the rest of Europe and other
blatant lies
Any critical observation about Israel is dismissed
out of hand as anti-Semitic, censoring our minds
when not asking the obvious questions
In Holland, farms are closed to give land to new
towns filled with people who hate the West and
wants to declare Shari law
A replacement of old stock, planned by George Soros
and other, ill-meaning people
In the meantime, the cold wind has ceased, and the flowers
on the balcony sing towards the sun, as we are told
we will have nothing and be happy about it
I've sat up nights
a-wondering why
I no longer hear the expression
'Here's mud in your eye'
It's not racist, sexist, or homophobic
not anti-semitic or islamophobic
Perhaps this is it: It's just so awfully deplorable
It makes Hillary Clinton seem sweet and adorable
CYNIC
He was Dean of the university’s
College of Creative Malfeasance,
including the Schools of Business,
Law, Information Technology, Marketing,
Economics, Theology and International
Relations!
His son was more sinister
He was a minister in the
Church of Confederate Christianity,
a denomination that is anti-family,
anti-immigrant, anti-democratic,
anti-Semitic, racist, pro-gun
and absolutely pro-life, perpetually
in the courts, perpetually in the news
and social media, perpetually in your face
a rising case of rape and incest,
a danger to our lives, an acute
health problem, requiring
an abortion!
He's 'anti-Semitic,' they say
~ as Trump unlocks Middle-East doorways
Your natural inclination for smileage puts a lion’s share of mileage between me and all that’s acidic. Not being anti Semitic but I’d love to adorn you with a crown of roses: no thorns.
I’ll build us a deer park, and we’ll spoon there, on benches, next to fountains, while Bambi comes to feast on tart greens. Don’t worry. They won’t be offended by our steamy scenes, nor your folded-up jeans.
Girl, say what’s on your mind.
In a universe this size, your big beacon-like eyes make the ether opaque enough to beseech you, and teach you, but what the hell is the point, if my spirit can’t reach you?
Say what’s in your heart.
Say what’s on your mind.
‘Cause the imbedded image of your smileage has faded. I guess we’ve all been a long time jaded.
Who am I to talk?
What’s on your mind?
The fox in the henhouse
The settlers are burning down Palestinians olive trees,
No main newspapers care to report the truth the settlers are conniving
With the Israeli government to do this unopposed.
What we a witnessing is the destruction of a people who had
their land was stolen and hounded to elimination by those who chose
to believe what a scribe said.
There have been many massacres over time like what happened
to the Albanians and other minorities such as the Rohingya people
In the hands of the Buddhists.
We have had the Holocaust, but it is the first time we are seeing
The oppressed are becoming oppressors, and they are so successful
That if we protest, they are calling us anti- Semitic.
Today there's a dissing of Shakespeare
His penning's dismissed as old-hat
Take time to get know him --
He's wittier than Dr. Seuss' Cat
Many point to the Merchant of Venice
To prove he was anti-Semitic
Read Shylock's defense of his profession
It's magnificent, Biblically prophetic
Shakespeare knew the Prince of Denmark
Julius Caesar Antony & Cleopatra too
He described the events of millenia
Pin-point penned every plot, every coup
Yet today there's a dissing of Shakespeare
And the nodding world sheds nary a tear
Came To Senses and Poems Create
Cooked my food and meal had created;
Cook book was old becoming outdated;
Reached my peak;
Became antique;
My meal and house do look dilapidated.
Up with thoughts of food mind did marry;
Could be when we went to a commissary,
My latest scare,
They would dare,
Only do have horrible food that is dietary.
Did Bake A Cake
Did bake a cake then take a break;
Trump fake news wanted to make;
He would adore,
While us bore;
Now is in lake after an earthquake.
Had put out food for birds and deer;
Ate it all up and then did disappear;
Horse home rode,
To beautiful abode;
Must be ***** are no longer here.
We wondered what was her intention;
Provide conflicting food she did mention;
Always a critic,
And Anti-Semitic;
Runs off mouth and needs detention.

You May Be a Bigot
By Franklin Price
12/12/2017
You may be a bigot
If the following's okay
You may not like to hear it
But you're a bigot anyway
On the news today I heard
What says bigot in my view
“I'm not anti-semitic
One of my lawyers is a Jew”
Leave us Alone
A risky apathy is darkening our time emails damning
the Clintons never stop arriving and are left unread
The scandal that could have sunk a battleship barely
makes it headline news
Some newspapers are tired of WikiLeaks bring nothing
but unpleasant news; tell us a joke instead.
The Settler on the west bank and Israeli soldiers are
losing their humanity their cruel banality no longer
stirs the mind, we are tired of bad news, therefore
a joke must not have anti-Moslem overtones not make
fun of religion and not be seen as anti-Semitic
We are tired of falling bombs and the dust they create
clouds of coarse dust drifts over a depressing landscape.
Show us sweet pictures of a kitten and cute dogs.
We don`t want to look into the darkness of the coming
the sufferers will have to suffer alone until mushroom
swirls make the humanity extinct.
Gaza Slave
The Gaza man looked stunned he carried two
Jute sacks that were bloodied and reminded of
Someone who had bought meat
At the illegal slaughter market
But it was worse than that he carried the remains
Of his family after yet an onslaught by the Israeli
Military machine mostly financed by the USA.
Now the Gaza man had to sort out the remains
And bury the right pieces.
If you asked an Israelite sitting on a hillside
Enjoying the bombing eating something correct food and
Drinking beer he will look angrily at you and say
Israel has the right to defend itself
And if that means the eradication of the Palestine’s as a people
So be it.
Israel to my sorrow has developed into a state that
Has lost its humanity
The Palestinians carry our forefathers’ anti-Semitic views
As a heavy burden
The Semitic Puzzle
The anti -Semitic problem is one of the most difficult
problem I struggle with. There is a duality in my feelings
I’m aware of the holocaust and will defend any Jew
against the onslaught of hate. On the other hand
I’m painfully aware of the pain of the Palestinian people
who lost their land and what is left is being built on by
aggressive Jewish settlers and he Israeli state are
unwilling to interfere to protect Palestine. And for those
who want a Jewish purity this has only one conclusion
the destruction of the Palestinian people. Should this be
the only experience drowns from the Shoa----surely not.
But my time is short I wait for the famed Jewish deals.
I know it is there in the offering what is needed is
A statesman to put the puzzle together.
Stop them Now
I have an itch it breaks out in a red rash, been to the doctor
who says I’m suffering from an attack of Islam- phobia which
manifest itself with a strong antipathy against people who
drink sweet tea and not are willing to swill beer like us.
They also dress strange when going to the mosque, that is
ok, it only when they talk about Shari laws I feel as they are
trying to convert us to their way of thinking.
This is my country too I do not want it taken over by people
who represent another culture.
That is why I protest and march in the street, it is not about
Anti- Semitic, Anti- whatever feelings I, like my friends, are not
for bending to a way of life that is alien to us. We did not
have a revolution to let a group of fundamentalist be given
or handed over to a group of nutcases.
