Ukraine is putting up a brave fight and is not giving in
A two finger salute to that murderer, Vladimar Putin
For eight months now they've held out in their cities
Dispite missiles, murder, rape and other atrocities.
Putin thought he had the most powerful and efficient army
If you believe that garbage you'd be bordering on barmy
They're inefficient, ill equipped, and cowardly in battle
When Ukraine advances they quickly retreat from trouble.
As winter approaches he's trying to demoralise the nation
By sending orders to his vile Orcs to bomb a power station
The west must send generators to help ease their plight
Along with more weapons to help, brave Ukrainians fight.
The grain shipments to poor nations is now under threat
That man is sub human and how much lower can he get?
Like the Roman empire and the Nazis big cracks will appear
Putins Russian empire will crumble and eventually disappear.
The Russian army has a long yellow streak down its back
It fires missiles indiscriminately when it's under attack
No thought for human life be it kids, women or old men
Sanctioned in that scum ridden place, they call the Kremlin.
Putins campaign for more troops is not going too well
No decent minded Russian wants to go into that hell
He's recruiting in prisons, along with the old and the lame
Putins cannon fodder and for Ukraine they're fair game.
We must not let Putin succeed, with his 'special operation'
He must think we're stupid; it's war against a peaceful nation
I have every faith in brave Ukraine and in the end they will win
There will be no Russian victory, and hopefully the end of Putin.
Victory to Ukraine.

Rhyme
I feel him there all day and night.
In my dreams, he speaks to me and makes my burden light.
His voice is like a soft and beautiful cymbal.
His turn of phrase makes my heart quick and my mind nimble.
His righteous utterance of confidence during the day,(sigh) shows me the way.
In retrospect, he was always there during my jejunity.
My father left me and my mother was not caring enough to love me.
He laid his finger on my heart and I felt his love.
His sweet and indomitable breath guided me to rise above.
I was abused by many antagonists and callous people over the years.
He fed me the fruit of his righteousness and chased away my fears.
He has made my life bountiful.
He has rectified my inefficient life so that I can become skillful.
In my winter solstice, I feel that time is nearing the fall of my withering and fermenting flesh to the earth.
My prayer is that my soul will bloom into immortal mirth.

Just a little word with
So many guises
Incoherent inefficient ineffective reaction
Inconsistent blame
Vengeful malaise
Conscious disregard
Blameless resolve
Sanctimonious irksome indifference
Creative revenge
Wreckage for sport
Intensive bigotry
Hyperbolic generalisation
Disinterestedness
Complacent autocratic dogma
Crass philistine opportunism
Nimble forgetfulness
Vigorous ignorant diatribe
Impotent nostalgia
All in a day’s work for those
Whose envy knows no bound

A lighthouse essential unattended
Seems only yesterday unaffected
Stood crucial organized significant
Now unkept completely inefficient.
Vines climbing assuming occupation
by onslaught internal saturation
A beacon important enlightening
Blind wanting forever agonizing.

Catharsis
By Carolyn Devonshire
heart
wisdom
comes with age
experience
so many emotions and events stored
flushed quickly from memory to my page
release, let go
catharsis
gives me
peace
Age and Experience
Carolyn's poem Catharsis had special meaning to me because we grew to be friends.
Two souls sharing emotions freely has broadened my eternal perspective.
Encouragements Carolyn has given helped me believe in myself.
I am very grateful for her step-by-step guidance to publishing.
Self-respect reflected upon an inefficient past until her.
Looking deeper into myself and caring, we realized a unique closeness.
Friendship is a two way street, where love meets in the middle.
Carolyn has been a loved and special friend of mine for several years.
I hope to have been of value to her in my own way as she has also been -
Wisdom gained through sharing experiences...and peace.

bicycle shows ignorance of man
it summarizes man’s limited status
the most inefficient machine made
tires burst as often as possible
spokes break with no warning
frictions are all over the joints
chain breaks and breaks and breaks
very unstable two-wheeled machine
humans have fallen and broken limps
but man still uses the bicycle
as one of best machines invented
and walks with nose in the air!

It rained that day -
incessant, driving rain
that mirrored my watery brokenness.
Teeming tears, teeming rain, teeming torrents
of gnawing, agonizing pain.
It rained that day -
overpowering the inefficient
stressed out drain. A gurgling back-flow
of uncomfortable memories re-surging
in my mind again.....and again,
as the rained poured -
bitterness and streaming resentment
onto the saturated ground.
The only sound the beating downpour
on the tinkling window pane,
and I watch it falling.........
falling apart ....
like the shards of my heart;
blade shaped, and stabbing mercilessly
at once precious memories now irreversibly tarnished
as they gush, tumbling down that overburdened drain.......
swirling in the sewage, wasted, acrid smelling,
torrential.....then gone from sight -
like you, gone, held tight, but gone, with the rain
down the drain, never to be seen again .........
It rained that day -
the day you left me bereft and
devoid of emotion. Sore from emotional misuse.
Untrusting. Hatches battened. Defences built;
walls constructed never to be scaled.
It rained for a while,
but today the sun shone.

Inside me I see
Nothing perfect, nothing great
Just a cog set in place
To turn at will and make haste
Influenced by the noisy machines
That shine a light glisten and gleam
They make us into zombie cats.
We sit complacent on their laps
All the while buying more
Lost without the Wal-Mart store
Telling us they are the best
Making us spend our checks
Just to crawl back
The next day
To our cog spots
Put in place
Turing again for the machine
Until it wakes and realizes
It doesn’t need
Something so low tech and inefficient
And so we are tossed…

Here...hear,
We'll just stick to the simple stuff
the harmless,disstressful,and not so rough
Fore whom in this Zoo has broadened views
getting screwed and retooled by inefficient schools
Distraught thoughts in anger are wrought
by those who bought and got took by the onslaught
Some poets try to hide behind their words
revealing their nature and how deeply scared
they are,and by far,the worst is yet to come
to some,without gumption and neurotic presumptions
don't mince words,then wince like a worm
you may not survive this ungodly term
So....the Bell has rung on a scottish rite
distastefully displaying a ringing fight
But...even the liberty bell got cracked
a reminder of growing pains so we don't lack......

Now-a-days
I feel like passing on,
My heart is dripping down.
Being faded, inefficient,
Blood booms back to my feeling.
However I live, live always with
All my dreams, decorum, disabilities
And with the divergences I hold.
If I die now, a kingdom will fall,
Fall it silently, likely leaving nobody liberated.
Hence I'm without charge, in passing away
Setting for nothing, because I am dying.

“their freedom of width, yet not of height
Descends, through the transpiring fright
Which enraptured them, in a cage of night
, never once, I would abide
Preachings on the repugnant walls
That seems to repulse the oppugnant scales
That never pleased the reluctant deals
Our seats of blank, yet never brown
Generalize the glistening rounds
Defining their conditioning bounds
While they plead their case while it is already found
Why? Have I not been Forthright?
Or the inhumane seem to be sincere with their smites?
their aggression seems to have been deluded with oppression
Always retelling their feeble progression
Yet, their misconceptions dominates their suppression
As they limit out my gushing faith
It remarks a cackling date
Which is what they used, to cover their inefficient wait”

Eyes see moments of our birth
As little helpless babies with no neck to support our big heads
Which push society around as they grow in girth
When we fuss and kick mom’s in beds
Where once further physical development occurs
Eyes see us learning to crawl
In tandem with fate that seldom errs
As our fantasy indulges in a brawl
With siblings as eyes see us mumbling a syllable here, another syllable there
All the while driving our moms nuts
When we suckle colostrum and milk from breasts with an air
Of undiminished ubris as moms become butts
Of the unfunny jokes we crack
With unabashed joy, thinking the world a happy
Venue where blues in overdose we pack
To make family members unhappy
When from school moms cry
Despairing that we can’t construct a simple sentence in correct English
At the same time as in Arithmetic we try
Harder our sums and triangle perimeter calculations on time to finish
Prompting moms to wonder if their superior genes
Live in our mediocre intelligence quotient
Whose needles and pins
Portray a number of us either as intellectually deficient or inefficient.

Ready To Hear Mueller Review
Hearing Mueller review this is reminiscent,
Being big play boy presume with penchant;
Walks slow;
Laurels low,
And not only that he has been inefficient.

Capitalism
is an economic strategy
and/or theory
that harbors no inefficient room
for healthy democratic love,
to live or die trying
(and not slowly fade away
not trying)
and for concomitant
co-arising
co-relational
positive correlational
ego/eco-relational
co-passionate
compassionate
wealthy multicultural values.
Cooperativism
is an inclusive incorporating culture,
with an economic systemic plan,
a politically healthy theory
rooted in democratic
and robust multicultural
win/win privileged values.
Expectations of cruel
and unusual win/lose punishment
strategies for fake
disempowering
undemocratic justice
is what runaway cascading capitalists
dream of drowning in
each nightmare night
of winners v losers devolutionary politics.
Anticipation of kind
and natural/spiritual win/win rewards
for restoring Earth's healthy green justice
is what cooperativists
wake up to
each co-arising economically buoyant
democratic dawn
Of ecosystemic RightHemisphere rest
prevailing over
anthro-centric LeftHemisphere restlessness
about Yang global
v Yin spinal spiraling
health empowering emphasis
of multiculturally cooperative patriotism
over monoculturing capitalist fealty.
