It's a requirement for us guys to stand up to pee
There's always a chance we'll pee on our knee
Sitting down like lady
Well at home maybe
Mighty awkward sitting on a urinal to me

So I was walking down the street
When I saw someone cheat
An old lady with no teeth
Out of her seat

So I though,' that ain't right,
Old ladies can't fight
I think this grown man might
Be stupid and spite'

So I go up to the man
I ask to shake his...

She left the meeting in a fit of rage
So near to completing they rattled her cage
She decided to quit throwing in the towel
In refusing to admit she had run afoul 

A few days before in a weak moment
She walked to the store the money was...

Standing up for Minorities

A minority is black, not white.
A minority is she, not he.
A minority is alternative, not straight.
A minority is poor, not rich.
A minority is powerless, not powerful.

A minority is immigrant, not resident.
A minority...

Riding the porcelain pony
the chemo hershey squirts

Not my favorite moments
but your inspiration for song 
helps me get it along
and I come out laughing now

I am doing tea and toast for breakfast
a banana chaser oh how passe
I feel just like a toddler
right down to my sore hiney

Still I am laughing...

The chasm between our political minds grows wider every day;
Verbal attacks on party rivals have become the accepted way.
How many more congressmen must be shot before this tactic is undone?
Citizens must demand a change in plan by standing up as one!

The “house divided” analogy is...

Roses are red
violets are blue
Your mouth is rubber
My feelings are glue
Why must you hate
I haven't a clue
Your narcissistic
Negative mind
Affects us too
Every time
Soon you'll find
Yourself alone
But before I go
I've got one more poem
Sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words really f****** hurt...

Palm Sunday 2016_ I AM SWAYED

Dressed in white and black with wide smiling beams;
Oh! how I miss 2015, its palm and serenity_
2016! you see four corners of the colourful room
Childrens' ward is where thou shall be
Frowning at the challenges coming my way
Acceptance of ones life_is...

Songs of hope ring out this night
People gathered under street lamps
Naming those who have died
In United States led detention camps
We now hear how much they lied

Our bowed heads with many tears
Each drop a life separated inhumanly
Children left scared and facing many fears
What happened these last...

Love stands alone in a crowd of hate, 
Hate all painted in red,
Hate sitting to perfect attention, 
Believing whatever was said,

Believing the lies of hurt and spite, 
Spreading the ache for a thrill,
But love stands defiant to this, 
Love happily restarts the rebuild,

Creating a new...
