Saving our only home
The world should be clean.
The world should be green.
Throw the waste in the dustbin.
And the world will come one step closer to being clean.
Day by day it is getting worse and dirtier.
Holding up the pain of being untidy
The earth carries a lot of people.
The earth wanted to be a planet where humans could live forever.
Earth wanted to have humans, however
Humans are not willing to be earthians now.
They only want to leave the planet. How?
Humans are fed up with the planet they destructed.
They are finding the planet where new life could be constructed.
The earth is worried about its health and ours too.
And this responsibility begins with you.
Before Mother Earth forgets its purpose.
Taking care is a responsibility that begins with us.

The enemies of your enemies
In politics are your political friends
The friends of your enemies
Are definitely not your friends
Politics get dirtier everyday
These days, lots of people are being hurt
Politics get nastier everyday
Mad or crazy politicians have no heart
They have respect for nobody
And are concerned solely about money
Power and privilege. They will kill to win
And they will maim to be elected and reelected
Some politicians don't have thick skin
They're ready to participate in illegal raid
Just so they can win at any possible cost
The friends of your enemies need not post
Nothing because they avenge, and backstab
They cannot move forward but want to go back
To their old ways of theft, cheat and corruption
Be protective of the ballots at the next election.

jay is different than he has ever been
a neatnik of course, and he is my twin.
whereas I am a beatnik, messy and thin.
he is a cleaner, a duster, no dirt on his chin.
I am slovenly, a messy hoarder, a collector, a slob.
my dungarees are usually filthy, rolled up in a glob.
no one is dirtier than I except maybe our uncle Bob.
bob eats like a hog sloppy buttery corn on a cob.
my brother’s cleanliness is annoying; it gets in my way.
he is way too serious, always cleaning, never has time to play.
his skin is sun-deprived, he stays inside to wash down the fray.
a beatnik, I am the exact opposite of my neatnik brother, Jay.

The stream grows dirtier
as it flows down
towards the ocean.
In a boat
as I drift with the tide
the water darkens
more and more.
Yet I glide
on this winding stream
to the infinite ocean.

I could not get much dirtier
I stare at my hands and laugh
not realizing until now how much
I resemble Florence
The old lady we made fun of when we were kids
because she was always filthy; especially her hands.
My hands have paint all over them – and I did not notice
before changing my clothes and coming into this store
I have neon paint in green, blue, and orange on them
There is a splash of gold paint on my bare knee
and a dollop of red paint on my big toe
I laugh at myself
When I was a child I did not realize
this is how little you will care
when you reach your sixties
Florence makes sense now

"Roses are red,
I want you in our bed."
"Violets are blue,
you can do anything to me that you want to,
and anything you want from me I'll do to you too."
On Valentine's Day I was very super bad.
I gave her what appeared to be nothing more than a brown paper bag.
I'll never forget her look of disappointment, she looked so sad.
Stacked high inside of it,
from the bottom to the top,
were individual Happy Valentine's Day messages,
and with each individual Valentine's Day message read,
the lower you go, the more romantic, but more important, dirtier they'd get.
We had an evening that to this very day we still can't forget.
We had to burn the sheets after we broke the bed.

The Rabbi, the Minister and the Monk agreed: Language is cumbersome!
"The sound of the rain needs no translation."
My prayer is that you, maybe with a word I share, will love the Bible & adore Jesus. O, it is THE Book of books, Best Romances, adventures, evil people & nations stopped, lessons taught! Peter denied Jesus thrice before His execution. But the LOVE that restored him (& us) is hidden plainly in John 21. Jesus sees Peter swim ahead of the boat to see the resurrected Jesus! Jesus does not ask WHY the denials, or offer second chances. He simply asks, "Peter, do U love (agape) me?" Yes, THREE times. Humble Peter finally says, "You alone know." No longer brash, rash, first in class. That is how Peter was restored. Jesus & Love.

Why was Jesus a Leftist? please extrapolate.
In John 2, Jesus overturns the money-changers' tables
In Mark 11, and Matthew 23, He cleansed the Temple of trade
He got to the City, took a left turn, not right to Roman garrisons
Jesus made a left, upset trade, earned his stripes as a LEFTIST.

All these people left to their own devices,
white, brown and black all in different sizes,
they started off white but things got dirtier,
the joker said that he didn't mean to hurt her.
That was 'her' - what about 'him,' maybe in the interim,
maybe we could start again but chances were slim,
there was a trap - it didn't matter if you died,
because the bastards were the same on the 'other side.'
A face appeared above a crater wearing a harlequin cap,
pleased with his work, happy to see an overlap,
happy that everyone was dressed in colored squares,
apparently it would seem that no one really cares.
I own you, control you, there's nothing you can do,
accept the fact, I was the one that made you.

The dirtier the world,
the cleaner the verse
The need becoming greater
—when the call most perverse

It's a dirty world,
and the longer you live,
the dirtier you get.
(Paraphrase of Stephen King, Blaze)
It's a violent Earth,
and the longer we live,
the more automated violence we beget.
We're a suffering EarthTribe
and the longer we live
naturally and spiritually disassociated,
the more painfully Earth degenerates.
It was a forested world
with wealthy oceans,
and the longer we potentially lived,
the more healthy reforested Earth would get.

A vigilante cop ended crime no matter what it took.
He produced phony evidence to put away the crooks.
He would also shoot criminals and make it look like self defense.
Criminals in his town wound up being referred to in the past tense.
He put a knife in a kidnapper's hand after he shot him in the head.
Then he laughed hysterically and said he was glad that he was dead.
But one day he made a mistake when he shot someone in the back.
This time he couldn't say that the criminal was the first to attack.
His punishment pleased some people but others thought it was unfair.
There's nothing dirtier than a corrupt cop and he got the electric chair.
He was a vigilante cop who eventually had to pay for his sins.
He was a disgrace to his badge and he'll never frame or shoot anybody again.

Mental Curse Words
If my mind was my mouth you
might think I had a potty mouth,
because my mind is a lot dirtier
than my mouth
When a situation is relentlessly
offensive and God is not speaking,
the curse words become a very
suitable outlet in my eyes.
Nevertheless I wish I was better at
controlling the tongue of my mind,
considering that the mind is arguably
the birthplace of corruption

Most people need to see Magic in technicolor
because they want to see all of the bright creatures
like Brownies and Pixies.
I don't want to see the façades
that Brownies and Pixies
present to the majority of Society.
But I need to see the Dirtier and Grittier
side of Magic because that is where I belong.
The Truth of Magic is messier and more dangerous
than People truly understand or want to know.
I am one of those People
who put their lives on line
To make the World a safer place.
And Society refuses
to recognize our contribution.
And I hate them for that.
