Trump and his fig leaf of tariff

To trump, MAGA dreams depend on tariff,
The math adds up or not, nor yet what if,
A tree’s just tree to him,
Minutiae, mental gym
To him, more than enough just a fig leaf.

Note: It’s just beyond Trump to understand that if high tariffs make it tough for the exporters, it also

Beneath the Leaves

Beneath the warm sun, we wander
through the tangled branches
my grandfather's hands gentle,
like the tree itself, rooted and wise

He points to a ripe fig,
its skin a the color of a jewel.
I reach, as he coaches me
ripe and unripe

Conversation is exchanged
his grumbly Italian voice echos
like a simple song on the summer day

He tells stories under the shade,

Connecting the dots part nine Q and A and Commentary

Q    Israel became a nation, May 14, 1948, during the spring season.The fig tree=
       Israel  And fig trees have two harvests in Israel both in the Spring and in
      the Fall? What's that got to do with the potential Feast

Fig leaf

emerald hands wave
fingers splayed, fig fruit fall
palms towards the sun

The Fig tree

Oh sweet fig of the night
The master has cursed your day light
You stand on the desert sand
Searching the whole night for me
While courage climb up your slender tree
I have met you somewhere in thin air
As your voice floats through the atmosphere
I can hear the mummers and whispers in the breeze
And the night shadows yearning after

let me fall in love with my fig tree

How beautiful my fig tree is, truly, 
It is shaped like the arches of a cathedral,
In a verticality, full of symmetries,
Let me fall in love with my fig tree,

He seems to think deeply like Socrates,
It seems to stop time, like a statue,
On the light that is like birds,
Let me fall in love with my fig

Harrowing Fig

I hold on the fig upon the tree, it cannot fall too far from it
if I were to pull upon it, surely it will not stay in tranquility,
as I hold it in my bear hands, I know it feels what I feel

I have experienced happiness in this woven of life,
nourishing my joy through the sun

I Don't Give a Fig

To say you would unblock someone if they can be civil
is a crock of BS that I'd categorize as narcissistic drivel.
It's just another veiled shovel full, meant as a dig
but it's quite clear that some people don't give a fig!

Oh, the impudence of one who has an arrogant nature.
The petulance of one without disciplined nomenclature.

Fig Tree of Today

You must recognize your season even if your season doesn’t recognize you!

The Reign of Thornbush

One day, the trees sought a king,
A ruler their hopes would bring,
In the land where trees stood tall,
But in their quest, a cautionary call.

To the olive tree, they first appealed,
"Be our king," they fervently revealed,
But the olive, revered and grand,
Declined, oil slipping through its hand.

"Shall I forsake my oil's divine glow,
That honors gods and humans

Florida's Fig Leaves

A principal had to resign
For an art teacher chose to assign
What a parent called ****
And she needed to warn
Those in charge it was way out of line.

Thought the students, eleven and twelve,
Into classical works were to delve,
Michelangelo’s art
Showed a male body part
That the protester wanted to shelve.

Now the David is known far and wide
And most

The Moreton Bay Fig

It still stands,
old wounds scabbed in gum,
the moreton bay fig 
that I climbed as a child
and stabbed
to harvest 
the white bleed
of its hurt.

High in its branches
I cut my initials
in the soft bark
to claim the highest climb.
It was the tallest tree
in my childhood.

A lifetime on
it arches its shade
over of the waste 
from a building site.
A barbed

Nothing But Fig Leaves

They say Adam and Eve pranced around wearing nothing
But fig leafs and the biggest grins the world has ever seen
Imagine NO FREAKING RULES!!!
All they had to worry about were those thorny bushes
And the occasional lightning bolt accompanied by a loud booming voice
Reminding Adam, “You owe me big time for this one, my friend!”
Caine and Abel

Fig Tree's Canopy

Under fig tree's cool
Leafy umbrella's vacuum....
Privacy prevails

My thoughts turn to Jesus when
He knew Nathanael was there     

Written: July 29, 2022
After picking a few figs on July 28th, when I walked inside the fig bush/tree's canopy a coolness and peace settled over me.
