Plebian Bedrock
Plebian Bedrock
Honorably mentioned, a talent search.
Perception stifled, from a righteous church.
Disregarded tidings from the far right.
Reckoning the left in the cloaked night.
Will ideology get its respect?
How can middle ground be beyond suspect?
Legitimately justified they point.

Atonement will merge the enlisted group.
Plebian bedrock, right here on the soup.

My Love For Bedrock

His love for the grumpy Fred Flintstone would never end.
His wife Betty was a tittering fool that adored Fred’s wife
They had a relatively hysterical cartoon life
When I was a child Bam Bam was the one I could adore.
His slamming and drumming caused my heart to soar.
Pebbles was cute, I

Trust - the Bedrock
Trust - the bedrock.
'Trust' - a thing that, if terribly short,
puts one's mind in a desolate fraught!
Writhing in agony, as intestines in a knot,
fish out of water at the end of cord it caught.
Oh man, life has a long leeway all along,
challenges thrown, only makes one

Often mocked as stupid
I am always faced with
the idea i am missing
something worth knowing.
I go to work. I do my job.
Preached to standards higher
than I can conceive,
I am everywhere and I believe
what I hear when
media gurus deceive
and try to convince me
that they stand for values
their own biographers deny.
I watch leaders praised
and forgiven for
