Endorsed Poems

Premium MemberPie-in-the-sky-Pin-a-tail-on-a-donkey

Democrats like Damocles Sword's imminent jeopardized positions of power hail her rise,
Decades of teamsters support, NO, Harris-Demos few endorsed her in the public's eyes,
Democrats today are like the Dixiecrats of Dewey's days are playing old-school, sex-race cards,
Repubs set in their ways, and Demos are bendable like what's his face got her on second base, charades.
He needed to win, expendable, same cards played, sex-(win over for the women voters) it is a given for the race.
D for Demos who are Distancing from Drunkards--her hidden card takes centerstage--loses face.
First line expounded of my original Pie-in-the-sky, and
the rest was a shot in the dark, played with dance cards.

*She can seek help if she don't slur her words on camera that she is, 
being tailed., f0x learned from Di' lawsuit--pass the buck.

Repubs are no angels in this with Trumy-Dumpy on a ticket and not a wall, the third possible gallops in time with withdrawals TBA.

September Falls

September falls within the best of times.
Elections nearing, campaigns underway; 
Predictions, weather-wise for cooler climes.
Thus teachers, teens and toddlers break from play
Ere education calls their minds to grind.
Men have endorsed re-naming Labor Day;
But that’s September’s summons of a kind
Enlight’ning us of work that must go on
Regardless of what holiday we find. 

Fall features color when the green is gone
And orange, yellow, red and brown have blessed.
Load up those fruits and walnuts and pecans;
Leave acorns for the squirrels building nests. 
September brings to time its very best.

Premium MemberOur Team Is Now Famous

'' Warning, the dangerous activity specified in this song, is not endorsed by Poetry Soup or this poet. Read at your own risk, and it is not advised to emulate such activity either at home or with your team" ~~ The Poet ~~

On top of pavlova,  - all covered with cream,
I took it to practice,  - to share with my team.

For eating’s a pleasure,  - getting fat is all grief.
Then all my poor team was,  - too fat for belief.

The coach wasn’t happy,  - he was so mad.
We don’t win games now, - the team was all sad.

It was time to take action,  - a diet we need.
Now all the team wants is,  - a yummy good feed.

It was time for Mac Donald's,  - we went to the store.
Now all we could think of,  - was eating some more.

The coach gave us a diet,  - that made us all thin.
Its hard to believe that,   - No fries helped us win.

Our team is now famous,  - we made our way back.
All thanks to McDonalds  - and their yummy big Mac.

Wind of the past

The autumn that had remained monotonous-
  For many decades,
  Now tears and takes pieces of hearts,
  Along with its old leaves, flowers,
  Leaving a nostalgic scent behind.

 Every preceding winter that warmed people,
 Returned this year, demanding-
 All the warmth that blanketed their memories,
 While it left them alone, in the cold.

 Spring found its way into the people’s hearts,
 Up sprouted the spears of novelty,
 The bright Sunlight endorsed its new season,
 A season with a bittersweet sentiment indeed!
  
 Every summer had brought people together,
 This one scorched their fragile ties,
 The oceans of memories faced up in doubt,
 As the vapours of the past ascended in due course.

 The grey skies mourned old relations,
 Happy moments and sad ones too,
 With every successive rain,
 Trails of the memories were being dampened and erased.

 A treasured trove of experiences-
 Prove to be heavier as the seasons age us,
 Bringing out our wistful versions,
 Only for our reality, waiting to be discovered and cherished.

Premium MemberA Place Not Meant To Be: 10

#10: No Room At The Inn

They blossomed they did like rows of roses.
Places for lodgers, those traveling sourced,
their reasons countered their changing poses,
frequent stays and returns have been endorsed.
There will be places that might be lacking
for whatever reasons that there may be,
the people won't stay there, less foot tracking,
as sites may have Roach Motels that you'll see.
There will be double-booking caused concerns,
leaving people stranded, no way, no stay,
whereby many shorten trips--forced returns.
Trends rallied lawsuits; be that as it may,
X-X Bethlehem, then Jerusalem, He'll lay.

Premium MemberIf the world would be like me

If the world would be like me
there will be no wars
Peace will be the first decree
overtly endorsed 
Love will be the law for good
Common understanding
Will prevail, just how it should
Larks will be ascending 
to the summer skies of blue
then descend with grace
to the garden grown by you
There will be no race
No oppressive vanity 
will make any sense
If the world would be like me
it would cut expense
But alas, the world we know
Looks a lot like them
Who are running this old show
with the newer lambs
Some offended gods can’t break
their favorite toy 
And a wiser god can’t make
world of peace and joy.

Premium MemberThe Dark Side of Liberty

Dark denizens of the night
    gathering in ill-lit backrooms
      haunts of the night
 
  They tease each other with
    rouged cheeks, their mascara
      their pimply breasts, shaved legs

  Some are known for tantalizing
    tempting striptease, revealing
      hairy chests and knobby knees

  Their hardened faces greeting poor
    unsuspecting 'straights,' who, horrified
      run screaming off into the night  

  And now the Left has lumped these 
    misbegotten sickos of the night
      in with today's 'civil rights movement' 

  of transgenders, kweers, and worse
    too debauched to describe, to be
      celebrated in 'Drag Queen Shows'

  in our public libraries, where America introduces
    her precious youngsters into the fraudulent
      creepy cabals of Satanism, endorsed by 'leaders' gone mad

Premium MemberValentine

My thoughts arrive in short, staccato bursts;
the long lines never seem to want to flow.
Macabre at best, generally, worse;
uncertain, the direction they will go.

Romantic phrasing seems a foreign tongue;
a lilting verse on love just comes out forced.
Yet beetles drawn to steaming piles of dung,
as love language, are largely not endorsed.

On this, Hallmark’s most halcyon of days,
pray do not be incensed, thy count’nance marred,
if, in attempts to woo with lofty praise,
I do compare thy scent to fragrant nard. 

Penned valentines, a Sisyphean feat,
but you’re my rock, and I, your paraclete.

Ghosts of Tomorrow

The graves of my youth
lay scattered behind me
Each headstone a failure
endorsed by my hand

A shroud covered memory
encloses my history
Where ghosts of tomorrow
roam—haunting my past

Best Education Brings Salvation

First study well to earn enough knowledge
Use the acquired expertise to get a fine job
Even though many without any qualification
Become prosperous using their unique skill

Of course, many great men became famous
By dint of hard-work and non-stop toil only
Later they were recognized for their greatness
But, we must not ridicule the conferred degrees

Only when we qualify ourselves with fine records
Our dexterity in a particular field is endorsed
As a result, that itself acts as a recommendation
And we then are sure of a very good employment

Reading, learning, writing and memorizing may
Prove to be a highly boring task, but the profits
That are going to benefit us must inspire us
As that will take us to a prosperous life-style

So, never grudge that you are asked to study
As that action will make you a respectable soul
All niceties will reach you one by one gradually
A great future will be awaiting you to give mirth.

Premium MemberTalking of Freedom Versus Turn-Key Unreason

Gb2 's a radio show, it airs in Sydney...But there's more to know.'
Ben Fordam has been speaking out,  on the covid dictates
Roundabout on where the science meets the facts
Whether it's all altruistic.? Or do some just act?

Also acts that block, that rile and shock; that lay down demands
That cost a lot..' Much production is de-railed; Aussie
Dreams now are ships with tattered sails, I hear that Ben is
Triple vaxed.. ) an early advocate, was his shout not so lax.'


Yet now he'll listen to anti-views ' To me that rings like
Dinkum news.' He' on facebook; and also twitter He's
A sounding board; and I'd reckon, a real heavy hitter.'
I haven't met the man as yet.' But I like the idea that
He's listening, and talking.' that's the part I really get.!

Go for it Ben,.' I will also here give mention to another
Australian heveyweight journalist Andrew Bolt a legend
In his time and this field, who has been questioning things
And even resigned, from the official endorsed media he
Was involved in, If I get time I will do him in  a piece also '

Pure Love Sex and Hate

Pure Love is to Sex Superior
And Hate to The Two Inferior:
Love to Sex Ever The Senior
And Hate to The Two “A Junior
To both of them just losing out;
By the Referee counted out …

Because Hate is ‘A Full Monster’,
Sex some of the time ‘Half Monster’
And Pure Love, Lord God’s Endorsed Star …

Sex might be to love A Donkey
But to it Hate is a Monkey!

Hindus Are Right, In This, Too

I
Hindus and their admirers often speak of their Trinity: Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver/ Sustainer. And Siva the Creative-Destroyer (in the way death of a seed, or if old family members also intimate). One theory of Cosmic origins similar to the Phoenix rising from ashes was also endorsed by the Vatican around 1920 (a Belgian priest-scientist gave us that theory of a cyclical Universe).

II
The dance of atoms, molecules, particles and waves is anticipated in the Hindu teaching that after several thousands of number of years, the cosmos atrophies, so Siva dances Creation again ( dance if molecules?). The Hindu Scripture focus more on all life and creation is nothing but vibrations. Gold and lead are dancing or it's molecules are dancing different dances, yet dancing vibrations all.

Premium MemberChanging the Past

a strange sort of flow
comes with thoughts of long ago
spews a welcome glow
nostalgia may just soothe
when mixed with lies and half-truths

Hitler and his ilk
less troublesome than spilled milk
like Wendell Wilkes
slavery a slight bother
endorsed by founding fathers

a happy nation
few trials or tribulations 
add more misinformation
ignore racial injustice
force the children to trust us

all Greenwood flattened
pretend it never happened
let's not be saddened
forget all those starved and bruised
that story is over used

no big mystery
we’ll sugar coat history
practice sophistry
let's deny the Holocaust
past transgressions should be lost

need new set of rules
ensure what is taught in school
makes nation look good
our kids do not need to know
repeating the past brings woe

Premium MemberThe Evils of Crt


They sat home ordering luscious pizza.
Some just drank cold beer or snorted pot.
Nothing was “ really” going to happen!
As they rode unicorns, this lost, hapless lot.

Stoned efficaciously, by the likes of CNN.
America haters, all, each last one of them.
And we citizens buy their “merde”daily.
Will grovel on the earth, cracking jokes
about the future.
Have you forgotten Hitler or Stalin?
Read their writings and on films is their
inhumanity to man.

This CRT is just the beginning...
To apologize for your color and past!
Insane beyond words is such thinking.
Endorsed by the so called “educated”?

A skull and  crossbones, no free thought
allowed!
Shining, screaming, unfurled, on their most
disgusting mast!
Bow to the ground, you of wrong color and 
confess, you are America’s most evil past.

                            7/8/2021

                  No, not for any contest!!!
