Will put his face in your face
Thinking it's a race
Who can be tougher
Who can be rougher
A bully will pick a fight
Try to ignite a fire
And then keep it raging
By throwing fuel
Disrespectfully engaging
Not wanting to give up the duel
A bully
Puts his face in your face
Mocking you making a disgrace
Only of his own maturity
Displaying his intentional obscurity
A bully
Puts his face in your face
Invading your space
Let's his anger speak
Confirming to himself he is strong
By making you look weak
In his mind he is never wrong
When a bully strikes
Tell a teacher. Calm down.
Uplift tour frown. Walk away
Resolve conflict on another day

Santa Claus was bellowing, things were wacked,
the giant red sleigh was packed,
the reindeer weren't harnessed up,
he stomped in the snow, broke his cocoa cup.
Suddenly, there in the far end of the barn,
what he saw caused alarm,
Rudolph was playing poker,
he was blitzed, being a joker.
Santa's face was beet red,
"Rudolph, get harnessed for the sled!"
Well, Rudolph was lit up in the wrong way,
and slurred his words to disrespectfully say.
"Hey Santa, I'm not freezing my jingle bells,
in the sky tonight, I'm in a drunken spell,"
Morty, the klutzy moose was at the barn door,
"Santa, my fellow moose and I will get you off the floor!"
And, by golly, they took the sleigh into the night,
a team of moose led by Morty's benevolent might,
Christmas Eve was saved,
and Rudolph and his team were in shame.
Santa forgave them in a few days,
because they began to go to AA,
and, in the following New Year,
they were once again Santa's favorite reindeer!

where's the beef?
Wendy's most famous advertisement that went viral
this ad disrespectfully put down other chain's hamburgers
Indicating their meat patties were small
soon a catch phrase for the 1984 Presidential election
makig fun of Gary Hart and Walter Mondale
Nashville songwriter DJ Coyote McCloud made it into a song
this catch phrase was "on fire" in the US for a long time
my children used it to poke fun of everything unlikeable to them.
this commercial was hilarious featuring an older lady Clara Peller
she had the perfect face and expression to pull it off

Spare me from those self-righteous snobs
Who think they have all the answers to life,
Leaving no room for alternative explanation
Or different interpretations, creating strife.
They are so full of pride and continually preen
Looking down on everyone condescendingly,
While believing they alone possess the truth
They treat all who disagree disrespectfully.
They are akin to those folks who "know it all,”
Who are unwilling to consider any other way
And, who will argue their point vehemently,
Sometimes mouthing off just to create a fray.
I have found it’s best to avoid them, if possible
Certainly not to engage them in foolish debate,
For wasting one’s time in frivolous discussion
Will never help their appetite for argument sate.

Empathy
What ever happened to empathy?
When someone feels the stress
Showing love and understanding
For those who have much less
Compassion it seems has had its day
In this world of selfishness
“Me first” has taken hold
…. It’s time to reassess
A helping hand for those in need
Giving it readily
Showing others that they matter
With a little charity
Never judging with a single glance
Disrespectfully
But stop and think… that could be me
And show some empathy

There is a miniature house village,
On a piano top all of the year.
Three figures 'neath a roof grace its center,
A creche to trim for Christmas cheer.
Neath the little village swings a garland,
Scalloped and sparkly as the sky,
Hanging from one end to the other,
Trimming the scene for a while.
The little plastic creche was found
By wandering children at play,
Covered in grease disrespectfully,
In someone's garbage on a summer day.
I think you would say its star gleams now,
As it trims the little village from all the world,
Its place is honored, so clean and pure.
Atop a piano, sparkling, an all-season joy unfurled.

we tried time
for many of our own discrepancies
there is not enough we bellowed
from cave to condominium
grabbed disrespectfully its minutest
portion and dragged it to court.
there is the job lined up,
on the line or maybe in line
the latest craze to master
the kinder need camp
planning for the future
and must keep up with those Jones
whom ever they may be
no one has ever found them, yet.
untouched time moved on
as it always will
pitying we poor folks.

Why cant i see what hes done to me?
torn me completely..
Always says things so disrespectfully.
Takes me then leaves me, and only mentions love occasionally.
Says he cant make it because of work,
only to lurk for other girls.
I thought he was the greatest person in the world,
until there came these last words,
" I'm sorry i cheated i really am,
but i decided i the only way i can be a man is to leave you, since I'm becoming a dad."
Denial leaved me shook for years, but why can't i see what he's done to me even though I'm still shedding tears..

Art thou perhaps harborer's of evil?
Hast thou not remorse thy deeds ill occurs?
For dost thou seest thy fallen sanity ill?
Henceforth unto thou I say - Avaunt Curs!
Forsooth Serpents speak with a forked tongue,
Untrue living - thus foolishly unsound;
Slithering disrespectfully among...
Unto thou I say - What goes round comes round!
Art thou perhaps wolves therein sheeps clothing?
Senseless cowardly acts notorious.
Shall forgiveness find I for once loathing?
For history repeats - good victorious!
One cannot perform God's task to judge!
Praying of they am I holding not grudge.

How can one say HAPPY Veterans Day.
A day reminiscent of all they who returned
from the horrors of war suffering with PTSS as well as all of the medically in firmed.
How can one say HAPPY Veterans Day.
when so many brothers and sisters lost their lives
leaving behind loving friends and family, children, husbands and wives.
How can one say HAPPY Veterans Day.
It just seems so disrespectfully inappropriate to me.
If I were to say anything to honor that day this is what it would be,
"Have A Great Veterans Day, In Honor Of All They
Who've Insured We All Live Our Lives Safely and Free."
