With a remote control
Everything may be at your fingertips
But not human rights
Man with wisdom is difficult to control
Bribery and scandal will be questioned
A peaceful demonstration may occur
Protesting
For human rights and justice
The country is neither under one person
Nor controlled by the only remote control
Called hegemony
But under the whole people's rights
But under God's protection
But under one's conscience
If any
Whenever I feel down and depressed
I long for an escape
But to where
The earth is too big
To know where is a save place
And too small
To escape entirely from the sorrow
Everywhere is bribery, racism
And hegemony prone
There isn't a save place without sorrow
And happy forever
The heaven is still far far away
And the hell is out of consideration
Maybe leave it to fate
And please don't ever ask me why
Somebody starts everything
As a conflict
And makes it a compromise
In front of bribery
Election canvassing
Demonstration or strike
A long way to fight indeed
For truth and justice
Which is already existed
Before we arrived at this world
Why
A winter comes
With nonstop rain and extreme coldness
Flood, flu and running nose
Besides the long fight of covid
Besides the long fight of political stability
Besides the long fight of bribery
A winter-like weather comes to my country
A country of equatorial climate and beauty
With no sympathy
But only as a test of faith in the nature
I believe
Doomsday will never come
As man makes up a part of the world
And His world
Sometimes we pray so that
The Kitchen God
Will not tell some of our mischievous acts
When back to heaven end of the year
It is not an old story
As a bribery is a comman way of life
Nowadays
To soothe the anger
To satisfy the greeds
To zip the mouths
To blind the eyes
To stuck the ears
Of the authorities
The stony hearts of mankind
The undeserved man will bribe to get
What he only gets by chance
The deserved man will bribe to avoid
Being snatched the golden apportunity
The greedy man will bride to make sure
What he wants is attainable
The unconfident man will bride
To be selected, to be distinguished from others
Where there are strong competitions
There are briberies in various forms
A stupid man even bride God in his prayer
Does he
A bribery
Can be great or small
Even sweet as the cake icings
Enlightened as the rustles of the night worms
Stonely silent as the night darkness
Secret murmuring as the stars
Unmoved and unconcerned as the bright moon
But suspended and burdened is your own heart
With a prolonged confrontation
Amongst your secrets, guilts, reputations, expectations, greeds
And the truths of life
Your choice will be your destiny
God waited for me, literary
Everything was always ahead of me, itinerary
I was always full of me, stationery
If work could change me, bribery
Then God summoned me, Calvary
And, God waited for me literary
My itinerary
Quite literary
Got me stationery
That Calvary
Was the only bribery
And, God still literary
Waited,
For me.
vixen ...
it defies sense
that such fetid phrase
and coarse, careless curses
can drift so dourly from plump little bows
perfect, pouty, chili pepper lips
dripping with dangled prepositions
and dangerous propositions
so, love ... what wish?
what shiny champagne-notioned bauble
will twist that naughty purse
into a sweet, sassy ...
yes?

Tommy's grade point is under.
His SAT's... a disgrace.
Mommy's paid off the college in cash (just in case)
One can't lower the bar to let rats in the race
and then wonder why rodents are running the place!

Bribery

Most earthly Justice
Is money with a mask on
money greases palms
A TOKEN
The word kept ringing
Water! Water!! Water!!!
It flows ones in a while
Patients hustle for water
They smell like prisoners
I thought water is free!
It's now a cost gift of mankind
Make a Nurse smile
With a little token
And win the award
The bucket of water award
A special bathroom award
A special toilet award
But for those without a token
Visit that thick bush
To answer the call of nature
Patients stake their lives to ease themselves
Wish to use the rest room ?
You need two buckets of water then
One for your self
One to partially clear the arena
You cannot clear it all
safe it for drinking
use the natural toilet.

My heart`s offering is plentiful today
It`s ardent
Tt`s daring
It`s bribe for services in the intrest of our past days
I want them to return as scattered ships
So dear the wage
So close the end
You may say I`m a poor man with the last coins for passage.

Would run you a hot bath
Bubbles up to your chin
Bottle of wine chilling
If you'd let me win
Would ask a sexy hunk
To sponge your back
Say sweet words in your ears
Bet you'd like that
Please can I win.
After the bath a nice massage,
By A film star lookalike
Any extras can be charged
Wink wink now can I win
Can make a video or two
You as the dream girl
A leading man with a bit of rough
Being sensual with you
Please please let me win
How about a two seater sports car
With a lean mean chauffeur
He can take you far
Journey of your own making
Please make my poem a star.
When your day is through
You can go on having fun
In a big bed for two
Now can I have that crown
One more trick up my sleeve
Would you like a Pentax 645x Camera to keep
I understand it's not cheap
But would be worth buying you,
if you let me win.

You're still mad at me,
But I'm not mad at you
I'm sleeping on the sofa,
What else am I to do?
I'll hurry to the flower shop,
Pick out a large bouquet
Dinner and wine by candlelight,
Will surely brighten your day
You're not mad at me,
Never was I mad at you
We're back in bed together,
It's love for me and you!
