Rage..rage rage.!!! Damn her' damn.. I just
Saw an old clip of the chattering classes
 bimbo..Nimbo whatever i rage rage rage
In my mind and soul.' At her 
atrosciousness, at the bloody mess she
Leaves in her wake.' Savage
 is my chest.'
Is 
the dish she did offer 'anti-dose' 
give stuffed
With opportunity, to engender gen-o-cide
The dirty truth is seen, they will appear..
At this harridns death-bed the thousands
Of victims locked away to die alone.' The children
She terrorized.Before God a parody of 
real empathy..With matricidal tones. Is it 
Ten or thirty or fifty thousand you victimized
Reid.? Grrrr grrr oh my mind is bubbling 
my spirit is eager to see her dis-harmony
And disconnection from balanced society
And stayt a right charlie he is also guilty.)

The Parliament of Freud

The Parliament of Freud

In youth the infernal triad posture and prance
Like the kindergarten of the lower house;
Bit players on the eternal stage of life,
Pawns in the cosmic joust of evolution 
Development and decay.
ID pork-barrels the marginal seats, whilst
Ego duns the sleeping ears with rhetoric,
And Super-Ego wrings its hands in despair.

The chattering classes look up with indifference
Before continuing on their way, playing out
Their own little drama on a parochial stage.
Yet at some point in life, wisdom prevails
And the tussle of ID with Super-Ego abates, as
One tempers its selfish demands and the 
Other decides she’ll be right, so that
Ego finally gets a grip on reality.

It Can'T Happen, Or Has It

Every day when I watch TV
I see the chattering classes

The TV pundits
And their guests

Pontificate about this and that 
And it seems to me 

That they are missing the big picture
In the era of Donald Trump

Nothing that they say
Will make a difference

Donald Trump has slowly conquered
The political world

And he is shaping it into something
That we had hoped we would never see

A truly American neo-fascist state
Wrapped around the flag

And so-called Christian values
And the latest made up outrage 

And the chattering classes
Don’t seem to understand

That they are next 
On the hit parade

As the Donald Trump machinery
Continues to take over the known universe

The question used to be
It can’t happen here

The answer I am afraid 
Is already has
