Best Down The Tubes Poems

Vote them out!
Vote them out!
Though the many
Marxist will curse
you out. Let them
defame, try to shut
your mouth – our
youth need a chance
to live free and dance
something other than
Commie Tunes, like from
those who wrote of 
Freedom's Silvery Moons, 
Cohan's pro American Tunes – 
Man, has Entertainment

6 a.m.
 
I saw your pain compressed in
Tourniquets and plungers.
Memories condensed to tears.
Cooling your hand holding bottles.
Dripping in puddles that flowed,
With white wind down glass tubes.

So badly –
Maybe you did not hear me.
 
Then I...

The mythical fates had a dubious task
Sewing the cloth of life for men
“How did that work?” you ask
Well, get three sisters who sew
Give each one a specific job.
When done, down the tubes you go.
Anyway get the picture…its destiny

Clotho sews the cloth of life
Putting in all...

Listen to the chumps,
listen to the rubes,
screaming that democracy
is going down the tubes

But every wise guy knows
when the fix is in

It's the art of the con,
art of the con
Guess your vote didn't...

And it was there. Looking me in the eye, “I shall born you.” I was overcome with 
sadness.

Before I was born I died. I was one with everything. I was more alive then, then I 
am now.

Children seem so simple. Children seem so free. Why...

*Letter to my daughter who had various surgeries when she was a baby.


Maya
you are as still as a rose
as prayers work through
your small body
and needles rest in your arm.
I watch the IV 
drip
like tears 
down the tubes
and your eyes are enameled 
as you hide from...

Six million feet under...going down dirty tubes and dark tunnels
Gun shots...sirens...lightning and thunder
Falling from grace and I'm falling forever
Too far gone...six million feet under

Six million feet under...black clouds, bullets and rounds
Genocidal gangsters turn my smiles into frowns
Giggling with glee lunatics they spew their loud laughter
Too...

He can only find oil by opening a can of sardines.
By hoping to make money, he employs some strange means.
He takes his metal detector, and wanders along the beach.
Is there some buried treasure well within his reach?
With almost any IPO, he buys big blocks of...

Some times it's difficult to rhyme.
We are living in a interesting time.
Putin's war which won't relent,
nor will our "telepathic" ex-President..
Covid still making people sick.
Our information stolen with a click...
After watching the news, our economy
is going down the tubes..
Shortages in the food chain and here
comes another...

All around the glasshouse grew hemp in fields
And when the plants began to ripen and flare
The beguiling grass-seeds caught in air
Flew through the windows of the glasshouse
 
Into the teapot boiling on the stove 
Into the teacup mother was to served 
Her cluck and company...
