battle of the sexes


~~MONA LISA SMILE
Picture Oil painting worthwhile 
Leonardo DA Vinci, look out!
What is she really smiling about?

(((The popularity of the Mona Lisa increased in the mid 19th century 
because of the Symbolist movement. The painting was thought to 
encompass a sort of feminine mystique.)))



~~JAMES EARL JONES
His award winning voice, rough like stones
Darth Vader, Mufasa, stuttering jubilee  
When I die can he be the one narrating my eulogy?

(((I love James, I'm a star wars freak... <--- yup that's me)))



~~SADDAM AND BIN LADEN
Were very bad, bad men
Causing chaos throughout America & Afghanistan,
HATERS OF THE USA: they should be called the Arab ku klux klan

(((Occupation: Terrorist~ makes me wonder if they went to the same school.)))
                                                                   


~~ADOLF HITLER
The world worse killer
Commander of the oxymoron  Nazi  
Losing at his own game of Yahtzee 

(((The Most Hated Murderer of all time)))



~~YOUNG ANNE FRANK
Her diary worth more than any bank
Famous Jewish victims of the Holocaust
Her legacy teaches that hate is an exhaust 

(((Anne Frank's diary remains one of the most moving and widely read 
accounts of the Jewish experience during the Holocaust.))) 



~~JOAN OF ARC
Angel in an era so dark
an epic hundred year war
her visions is what she payed for.

(((Joan of Arc, also called the Maid of Orleans, a patron saint of France 
and a national heroine, led the resistance to the English invasion.))) 



~~BB KING
Can really sing
Stand by me...
But, can he sting like a bee

(((BB KING~ could not help but wonder if he was a lover and a fighter.)))



~~LADY GAGA
Is no piano sonata,
Madonna wannabe, is she.
Watching her videos make me laugh till I pee.

(((Lady Gaga is Unique as can be!)))

Premium Member Quest For Tolerance

new nation to craft
founding fathers sought to draft
a declaration of independence
document that made sense

Thomas Jefferson sought to free slaves
but was warned not to make waves
five of thirteen colonies
he had to appease

breaking from British rule
ignited a duel
with each colonial delegate
expressing their regret

they could not sign
they would not find
all men of equal value
heated debate ensued

withdrawn from the declaration
with misgivings and trepidation
eighty-six more years would pass
until the slaves were freed at last

Lincoln paid a high price
when he acted against advice
signing an emancipation proclamation
brought civil war to a nation

twenty percent of our population
lay dead, a chilling affirmation
we failed to see what was right
every color worth as much as white

though the war is formally over now
discrimination we still allow
Talmadge Branch was just one case *
where service was denied by race

Ku Klux Klan remains active too
wounds once healed open anew 
and the battle for human rights
fear and hatred still ignites



*  In 2008, Florida Attorney General Bob Butterworth 
had to take action against a bar in Perry, FL, when they 
refused to serve African-American Talmadge Branch 
unless he took a seat in a “back room.”

Premium Member To the Ku Klux Klan Part 2

We are all essentially African. That's where humanity first took birth.
Some then left Africa to populate every land mass on planet earth.
Those of us who remained in equatorial Africa kept our very dark protective skin.
It served as a natural sun block, 
preventing harmful ultra violet rays from contaminating our bodies from within.
As we migrated closer to the poles we began to slowly depigmentize. 
It was an evolutionary trade off, one might call evolutionarily wise.
The rays of the sun when closer to the poles 
are not as harsh as in sub tropical Africa and the pole's climate is cold.
Where as in Africa we walked naked with our protective dark skin,
The poles were colder. We wore clothing over our slowly depigmentizing skin.
Depigmentizing all the quicker because of very little exposure to the sun at all.
Because we differ in skin color doesn't mean anything good or bad at all.
We were and still are all the same human specie, unlike our cousins, the extinct Neanderthal.
We are all *****sapiens. We are all the one and only Human Race. 
In a nutshell, that says it all.
To All Hate Groups Out There and hate individuals too.
Be forewarned. Be aware. Your over due extinction is about to come true.
I speak for all with knowledge who have truly evolved too,
"We All Welcome The Extinction Of All The Ignorance Created By All Of You."
You should all welcome it too, so that all of you can truly, for the common good, 
intellectually evolve too.


Premium Member Now I'm a Big Poetry Guy

     I once disliked poetry worse than math   
        going back further – than taking a bath

     Shelley was for sissies and so was Blake
        reading their verse was a king-size headache

     But then along came Eldridge Cleaver, a real man’s man 
        his poetry faced down ‘whitey’ and the Ku Klux Klan 

      Poems came alive for me then, I read Castro and Che
        Lenin and Stalin, Ayn Rand and Zane Zen

      So now you know why I’m a big poetry guy 
         I can write about why civilization deserves to die
             ~ and no one ever asks why

Standing Up For Immigration Rights

In the United States of America, all immigration laws must be in effect at all times. It's
been like that since the Civil War started and the signing of the Declaration of
Independence. But everybody must accept the fact that the people from different countries,
including India, are becoming citizens of the United States. It seems that some people
don't want them in our country because all foreigners will not just take their jobs or
whatever, but commit crimes everywhere they go, including solicitation or whatever. Well,
the last time everybody had checked, the united States of America was called "the land of
opportunity." Now I, for one, am for immigration rights. Just like these people from
Mexico, Haiti, China, or wherever these people are from, they have rights, just like all
of Americans do. Some people like me should make them feel welcome in our country, but
some them are always judging these foreigners by their religions, faiths, and/or beliefs,
background, or whatever. The ones who have always been hateful towards the people who
aren't U.S. citizens since 2006. And some people are ignorant, selfish, and on top of all
that they're a bunch of hypocrites, just like the Ku Klux Klan who've always wanted all of
us African-Americans to go back to our country called Africa. How stupid is that? Okay,
sure, these people from foreign countries may need to pass background checks in order to
become citizens of the United States of America, but the fact of the matter is that day in
and day out these people, from around the world are God's children, and these people
really need to stop being ignorant and arrogant--for once. If I'm going to stand up for
immigration rights, everybody should stand up for the people from around the world,
including Egypt and Afghanistan. And no matter whether he or she is Muslim, Buddhist, or
Catholic, or whatever, we're all an equal and we are all God's children. God bless
America, and the whole wide world.

The Color of Opression

The Color of Oppression

They trespassed into the motherland bearing nothing but unknown gifts to our small minded leaders
Bartered with them for valuables far exceeding what they could offer in exchange
They drew on masks to conceal their fascist ideals towards us; they pretended to be our friends
Fake smiles were displayed as they greeted us, smiles that concealed their wicked hearts from our midst

My ancestors impressed by sugar, clothes, bibles, and rum sold their people for meager goods
Un-broadened minds restricted by sacred traditions, if only they knew
If only they knew what hell these white demons could bring, the hatred they harbored
They practiced mathematics on us as they divided my people

Our traditional setting, our cautious nature, our yet to be broadened minds 
We fell victim as they did what aliens do to conquests…… Brain washed us
Like mineral resources my people were exploited, our minds filled with ethnic propaganda
They whispered lies we believed, lies that dampened our free spirits, and lies that chained our hearts

They imposed slavery, stole our riches with colonialism, imprisoned our minds with imperialism
Decades my people lay captive, their hearts beating to a common voice
A booming call was cast across the motherland; a call for freedom was issued
My people`s hearts became a group of lions, their hearts swelling with pride

White is the color of those who started the first and second world war
White is the color inflicting social injustice, instigating a social stereotype
White is the color of the truly wicked, the color of the third Reich
White is the color of the ashes left behind in Hiroshima and Nagasaki

White is the color of those who lynched my American brothers and sisters
White is the color of the Nazi and the Ku Klux Klan
 Yet white is ironically the color of peace, love and tolerance
White is the color of shameful men, the color of a cancer with no treatment
 
White is the color of those whose power is dwindling with each decade
White is the color of the weak
White is the color of those drained of life, those ruled by death
White is the color of those defeated by true freedom


Premium Member A Former Immigrant Juvenile's Feelings and Views On Race and Color In America

During the '70's, deep in the South,
     I was white but raised black by a black man.
     As a boy, I have watched the Ku Klux Klan
on the news—and was frightened as a youth
who was “black.” In those times, it was uncouth
     and a mark of disgrace to be less than
     the child of a white mother and white man:
even back then I felt that racist truth.
Two-score years have passed and I’m still confused,
     troubled, and unclear as to what or how 
I should be: am I white—or “black” (abused
     by my black "dad," I relate to him now—.)?
It’s joyless being me—unhinged like this:
but feeling more black, I hate prejudice.

This Roads I Walk Are Hurting My Feet

this roads i walk are hurting my feet,
i get home. i take my shoes off. i lie down.
i wake every morning wishing and hoping.
But guess what, this roads am walking them again.

the stars. like i said; this roads, my feet and you.
 
am just like purity, am really good to the young,
but taste better for the old.
am not the Nazi, or the Ku klux klan. i take all.
am free. Use me. Take advantage of me for all i care.
 
am black, am power. am magic.
i move mountains of stupidity, am the king.
Am the word, the power, am knowledge. But.
this roads i walk, are hurting my feet.
 
nourish me, let me grow in you. so i get stronger.
then i can grow as we walk  this roads i walk.
that are hurting my feet. cause i get weak.

you'll be among the stars.
 
word, know, slow down. take time. this roads.
my feet hurt. word. not animore. know. we'll succeed.
we have roads to walk, bear with me, i get weak. so.
nourish me, let me grow in you.

Premium Member The 60's

 It was a cultural revolution, while a world jumped to conclusions
 Of mini-skirts, and go-go boots, and psychedelic tensions
The flower child, would smile and sprout communal peaceful versions
about a war, and called it wrong, and marched to have it end.
Mary, Peter, Paul, would sing,... Pete Seeger wrote his songs
While somewhere soldiers fought the throng of distant Viet Cong  

The wonder years, had rendered us to march in protest parades
Invading rights, the south would fight against the Ku Klux Klan
Rosa Parks would take a seat and fight for rights of men
her bravery would light the world. .. and sparked a light within

 The Beatles sang of "Yesterday", and everything between
"Imagine" if you can at all,.......what peace could ever bring

The evening brewed the Cronkite news, and we believed in him
On distant shores the scores of dead, the dreaded war ensued

A bullet broke the heart of man...
and we would watch a child salute 
    the father that he loved and knew
                            struck down beneath, 
                                 a Texas sky one cloudy afternoon ...        
                                                                     
His uncle too, ...then, Dr. King.....succumbed to hate, such fate would come, as well
The dates we keep with lock and key, and still,....our throats will swell

Yet through the clouds, into the sky....one step for all mankind
Would light the world,  again with hope.....and take us to the moon

A Planet of Pain Part 2

Is it any wonder why this world is falling asunder?
These days obesity is more common than hunger.
Humans abusing, society’s confusing,
Unfortunate drug addicts who can’t stop using.
Daily stabbings in prisons, youths making bad decisions,
Too many neglected children living in terrible conditions.
Politicians taking bribes, evil armies wiping out tribes,
People forced to take sides because religion still divides.
Homelessness increasing, police not policing,
Endangered species are rapidly decreasing.
Droughts in Africa, madness in the Middle East,
Millions living in the belly of the beast.
Misogynistic attitudes in China, a barbaric one child policy,
A crazy law invented by an evil ideology.
And while we’re trying to achieve all our goals and dreams,
Child prostitution keeps rising in the Philippines.
So you can boast about your gold watch and your platinum chains,
But there's children in Syria suffering from hunger pains.
Suicide bombers in Afghanistan as young as six years old,
Poor illegal miners in South Africa are still digging for gold.
Girls force-fed in Mauritania hoping to marry a man,
Many racial problems in America, it’s not just the Ku Klux Klan.
Rising sea levels in the Maldives is a serious threat,
Kids in Indonesia think’s it healthy to smoke a cigarette.
Greenland and Antarctica’s ice is melting faster than ever,
And this planet we call earth won’t last forever.
Worldwide Genocide, millions have died from political lies,
Unconscious minds please open your eyes.

Premium Member What the Radical Religious Rabble Rousers Are Thinking

All of Islam deserves our hate
Unlike ours—this faith can’t be great
The ground zero mosque
Is an evil kiosk
Our lord says to obliterate

What’s better than the Ku Klux Klan
And frightens the bad Taliban?
Yes—with a book roast
America will toast
Those evil who read their Koran

Burning books ain’t nothing to fear
Infernos are fun with a beer
So with drink all cheer—(hip hip hooray!)
To hate is nothing *****
Hitler did it—and he we revere

Religious Nonsense

A cleric in the Ku Klux Klan
Claims "White" must be God's "Chosen" man
But he prays with a frown
Since Jesus was brown
And the clay that made Adam was tan!

Incomprehensible Duality

It seems that man can never comprehend
The carnal thrust of lust we all must trust;
As human minds design no plan to end
Carnality 'till man converts to dust. 

When facets of our lives are added new, 
Atop existing layers of the truth, 
Environments of learning do renew 
The curious intensity of youth. 

We are allotted exploitation needs 
Of broadened exploration, to negate
Hyperbole and altered truth, that bleeds 
Intolerance resplendent in its hate. 

But time can lead a child inside deceit 
Perpetuating common fallacies 
Supported by revisionist conceit 
Transparent in their false realities. 

Revise, revise the facts you little whores 
Enjoy the crime of falsifying past 
And make it easy there behind closed doors 
To witness fabrications that are vast. 

The neo-nazis and the Ku Klux Klan 
Deny the Holocaust and all its pain. 
They claim the nazi's had no final plan 
And such a plan would simply be insane. 

The camps became infested with disease 
Another reason many prisoners died. 
And academics shouting out their pleas:
"The Jews had our sweet Savior crucified. "

Today the truth revised and falsified 
Comes straight from printers who with pride omit 
The aboriginal great genocide 
That many witnessed our own troops commit. 

They state that in the scheme of things so grand, 
Elimination of a race though sad, 
Is something that we all should understand 
But teaching it makes Anglo's very mad. 

But history without integrity 
Is empty exercise of false belief. 
To understate the state of slavery 
Will give the racist only brief relief. 

The founders compromised morality 
Allowing slavery to long endure. 
Incomprehensible duality? 
Just keep the facts wrapped up and children pure. 

For us to live and thrive if not survive 
We must admit the errors first and last; 
If not we find inside our final dive - 
Oblivion of splintered fragments past!

Some Lives Matter More Than Others

Black lives matter
yes they do
Blue lives matter too.

Green and red and yellow lives
I’m all on board - no lie.
But when you say that “ALL lives matter”
you’ve lost me, and here’s why:

I seriously doubt that you
agree that every life
is as important as the next
Oh really, Barney Fife?

So tell me - and I’m sorry for
invoking Godwin’s Law
but what about that Hitler guy?
Now don’t you hem and haw!

You said “ALL lives” - so do you mean
that people like ol’ Dolf are just
as valuable as you and me?
Why shouldn’t he be dust?

And what about the Ku Klux Klan?
And what about the Taliban?
And what of ISIS (or ISIL)
who stay up nights to plan their kills?

So all lives matter? Really now –
That just seems very wrong, somehow.

Villanelle: The dilemma of the non-violent – 2

The formal war according to ancient rules
The pitted hosts convened on common ground
Till the last man drops or takes to his heels

Pandavas* Kauravas* on Kurukshetra fields
Victim serfs spiral eddy underground
The formal war according to ancient rules

Ceasar’s murder avenged on Philippi hills
Who but Anthony would wear Brutus’ crown
Till the last man drops or takes to his heels

Would Krishna’s advice suit glorious fools
Where would todays’s Police victims lone stand
The formal war according to ancient rules

Raison d’Etat sprouts spikes on Police bulls
Would Matador face dead toro rule-bound
Till the last man drops or takes to his heels

When cowards anonymous cloak their jowls
Under Ku Klux Klan racist Police command
The formal war according to ancient rules
Till the last man drops or takes to his heels

°Pandavas and Kauravas: opposing forces in the Hindu epic Mahabharatha (Great War), related by blood
and fighting for the anomaly of succession to the same throne. The Bhagavad Gita (Song of God) is part of this epic poem, the longest to date.
