Best Campaign Poems
Straw Man, the 2012 Presidential Campaign......a strange color, green
Become better informed, listen to your teachers,
educate yourself....which branch will the bluejay
survey from?
The hawk, circling, choose his best option?
Bleeding soldiers depend on doctors, rich men
depend on accountants, souls depend on preachers,
tap water depends on scientists...

New Guinea Kokoda CampaignNew Guinea Kokoda Campaign
In 1942 the Japs appeared, took all the islands north.
Our troops were mainly school boys and for New Guinea bound.
13,000 Japs landed, climbed up Kokoda and came forth.
As Yanks, Macarthur's boys took over Melbourne town.
Churchill said "No we can't help,...

A Winning CampaignIn eternity past, God would ordain
a place to which Satan would appertain.
Darkness ruled in this void and vile domain
wherein grief, grudges and greed were germane;
addicted to force, would Lucifer wane?
Outright rebellion goes against God’s grain,
His plan called for a selfless Savior slain.
Demons tried...

Its a Smear CampaignCERVICAL CANCER AWARENESS WEEK
24 – 30th January 2016
Cervical cancer … the silent killer
Every day in the UK eight women are diagnosed with cervical cancer
Sadly, 1000 women die each year
Adolescents are offered the HPV (Human papillomavirus) vaccine
but they STILL need to have regular smear tests
Smear...

It's a Campaign SeasonSinging and drinking, with little or no thinking,
Cheating and mocking, with little or no care,
Exciting and deciding, with little or no storming,
It’s a political campaign season, it will be after five, to have it again.
Bribing and buying the voters, who cares who wins?
Corrupting and misleading,...

Current Presidential CampaignThe current presidential campaign seems asinine
For both candidates if elected promise all will be fine
Each runs down the other
Thus pertinent policy never given gesture
As we the people sip their political strychnine...

Dirty Tricks CampaignCampaigning must be very laborious
For democrat Hilary Clintorious
Folks say she’ll oust Donald Trump
Enthroned when taking a dump
These nasty rumours are so darn spurious!
May God Bless America - she sure needs all the help she can get!
Thanks to Duke Beaufort for letting me use...

Their Campaign Driving Us InsaneTheir Campaign Driving Us Insane
Are poor things about a political campaign;
They have seemed to be driving us insane,
And better yet;
Always forget;
Do not remember and lack ability to retain.

Campaign DonationsThe country is in dire straits, the government is broke.
Services and jobs were cut, lay-offs for many folks.
But still the money rolls on in as all the millions flow.
Dollars wasted every day by candidates for show.
Money for their luncheons and dinner-dancing too.
Back-to-back ads on TV...

Campaign 2016The first rule is easy....
It is not hard to love a God
The second rule is much harder to obey
If my neighbor is perfect...as often I think I am
We find loving each other as easy as loving God
Many are so strange...so hard to love...
Impossible to even...

Campaign EvolutionQuestion for candidates:
Assuming you preach what you most exegetically practice,
how has your campaign prioritized
carbon footprint reduction,
investment in ecosystemic cooperative policies and procedures,
disinvestment in Business As Usual competitive self-promotion,
in both economic
and political,
secular
and sacred,
natural body
and spiritual mind governance
strategies?
Permacultural candidate response:
We avoid compromising our present
to invest...
