Get down! is no joke-
Amazon eyes meet
black, jungle eyes
No one backS down!
The genetic zipcode
has travelled over
two (2) continents
on a tight-rope
to say a false/friendly
"Good Morning/Buenos Dias!'"
We serve it up with a side order of MEANS WELL
like the Connecticut River in January
the pieces...peaces
float and bob upward near
cease-fire redemptions
just in case mutual dreams
come to fruition
during the Panasonic night.

"Calm down," Newt said to Mitt.
"The quality of mercy is not strain'd!"
"Really," replied Mitt, "Comma on!"
"If you really believed in mercy,
you wouldn't have forced me
to divulge my tax returns!"
"Truely," said Newt. "It droppeth
as the gentle rain from heaven."
"Ah," says Al Gore, "like acid rain!"
"Or, nuclear waste run off down the Connecticut River?"
"Come over here have a cup of tea."
Ron laughs, "You, me and that I-ta-i-an."
"Little Rickie," "Really Ron," Al scowls.
"His wife isn't a red head, and he can't sing!"
