Misconceptions so often prevail,
They rob us of honest detail,
They clutter the mind,
With notions that bind,
Of the cleverest female or male.

We really should root them all out,

Are really worth bandying about.

To tell...

A war on individual rights
     is brewing in the U.S. of A.
Seems a woman has no control
     over her body as of today
And how many more personal intrusions
     are headed our way?
Seems we...

Former CIA Director
John Brennan scathing headlines

We are parasites on the earth,
We are bandying words with our creator,
Babylon is burning blue,
And the people are getting scared of you.

Who wants to live another year,
Christmas is over, A misonomer,
Survival on the shore.

The wreckage of carriageways,
Jacknifed and strewn,
Every voice...

Nope reforming hardened criminal donning

nor offend devoutly religious 
man, woman, or child,
when the most important 
Christian holiday notated, 
a veritable “movable feast”
occurs Sunday, March 31, 2024.

You would not bet on cards in your hand,
Without knowing their face value.
You wouldn't plant seeds,
If you knew the plant they would grow into,

If you knew it was beyond repair.

Yet I hear you...
