Pássaros e águias...
Na vida e nos negócios,
em todas as décadas
os pássaros procuram e encontram
abrigo durante uma chuva.
AH! O pássaro águia
evita a chuva
voando acima das nuvens.
A chuva atinge a todos,
a atitude faz a diferença.
EVITA
Maria Eva Duarte de Perón -
her husband rocked her world - seed sown.
Argentina's sordid saint -
the First Lady’s wake caused them to weep and faint.

Evita met her husband, Juan Perón, after an earthquake. She was known for her “Rainbow Tour” of Europe. She was finely dressed and gave money to the poor. Protesters in Switzerland threw stones and tomatoes at her. She died from cancer when she was 33 and running for vice-president. Madonna played the part of Evita in movie of the same name.
SONIDOS DE LOS TAMBORES DEL RÍO
COMO EL SONIDO DEL BEAT VA, TUM, TUM, TUM
A medida que el sonido del tambor late boom, boom y boom
Corriente de las aguas del río fluyendo;
Bajando los valles gritando.
Fluyendo donde puede tragar;
Las aves descienden, picoteando los cuerpos de peces que emergen ahora flotando;
Las olas gritaban los nombres de los que se alejaban, se escapaban;
Olas de las aguas aguas poco profundas turbulencia aguas agitadas;
Evita que la premisa diga
Corriendo por la corriente corriendo contra los troncos contra las orillas del río
En voz baja oímos los tambores de las olas que golpean en sus orillas;
En silencio oímos los tambores tum, tum, tum, boom, boom boom;
Tum,
Tum,
Tum,
El sonido de los tambores de río;
Hacer peaje
Los sonidos de los tambores de río, llamada;
Están llamando nuestros nombres;
El sonido de los tambores de río;
Beat tum, tum, tum;
Los sonidos de los tambores de río;
The sounds of the river drums;

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.©2019
Língua para quê?
É função de a língua
dizer não e não sei.
Dizendo não,
evita que o coração
faça trapalhadas.
Dizendo "os não sei"
treine
para que a língua
não repasse para o intelecto.
Dizendo sim,
eu sei
deve passar direto ao coração.
Treinar a língua é uma forma civilizadora.
ENTRE DUAS PESSOAS QUE ESTÃO BRIGANDO,
AQUELA QUE PRIMEIRAMENTE SILENCIAR
SUA LÍNGUA
SERÁ A MAIS LOUVÁVEL
The bog of Incredible Stench
Not a place I knew of when young
Not a place I'd ever contemplate going to
Not a place I'd recommend – learning cure?
@Not a place I want to be@
Why do so many do so many regrettable things
Evita – no regrets?
They wish!
Borrow a life or two – hind – no regrets?
≠
I knew bizarre wear of the Emperor
New life – borrowed life
New life – better life?
New life – old strife
♣Invisible hands to help the Emperors into their robes♣
Invisible mantle stolen on view – star wear
All on show invisible bizarre wear
Star wear - star war
Poor star?
Poof gone?
Mantle gone!
Stardom gone?

Catch a falling star for the pocket
New life – borrowed life
Catch a falling star for the pocket
New life – better life
Catching a falling star for the pocket
New life – new lies
Catch a falling star for the pocket
New life – old life, old strife!
Will you go
To ware stench?
Will you go
following
stardom?
Does it
happen
or
is it
taken
Nurtured thievery
Kept not given back
Thievery of many to greedy to know
They're Emperors on Show
