Yes, Life Crumbled At His Feet Like Decay On An Old Log
Yes, life crumbled at his feet like decay on an old log
that morn was abjectly eerie had a low moving fog
and in the distance a low murmur rolled on in
In that bleak little world, in the country road a dead dog
Whilst in the teeming city was the ever present smog.
The dirty man was tall, beady eyed and almost blind
one could surmise may he was out of his hair raising mind
his apelike features like so much splashed on barnyard paint
In that washed up world, was there room to ever be kind
Or heaven help us, any leeway to relieve workers that grind.
Why does such mysterious manmade happenings so abound
is it earth is dying or rare truth never to be found
should Godlike justice appear to rear its judgmental head
Justice is too often at buried like snakes in the ground
And lay there like a useless orchestra playing no sound.
Yes, life crumbled at his feet like decay on an old log.
That morn was abjectly eerie had a low moving fog.

Rhyme
I'm no legal expert, I'm the first to say
Nor do I live in Israel, though I'm a citizen anyway
But it's hard to watch a proposal tear my country apart
So I'll write a few lines here, straight from my gut and my heart
What if Congress could overrule the US Supreme Court's every decision
It seems a surefire path toward unprecedented division
Imagine Roe vs. Wade subject to Congressional wrangling and supervision
The resultant laws, a recipe for chaos, scorn and derision *
So, that parallels what's been proposed in Israel's judicial revisions **
~ likened to an axe making the finest of incisions
__________________________________________________________
*With every change of power in Congress, (almost every election these
days), Roe vs. Wade would be revisited and redecided. Heaven help us!
**By a majority vote of Israel's Parliament (Knesset), Israeli Supreme
Court rulings could and would be overturned. (And with each shift in
the ruling majority's composition, a fresh round of overturning could
and would begin).
PREFACE
I wrote this after I saw a poet suggest
~ that all the unvaxxed be put to death,
A moronic statement and one thar rings
and mirrors the ugly,.....Adolph Hitler.
Heaven help us, if we turn into killers.
...........My Prayer..........
Now I lay me down to sleep.
I beg thee Lord, all my rights to keep.
If forcibly vaxxed, before I wake,
Send Satan and their Hitlerian souls to take.

Only special parents are given special children to raise.
Only God knows who you are and why.
" Special babies, like an orchid
must be cultivated
with tender caring hands
to produce
a most beautiful flower. "
Dear Lord in heaven help us to be
The very best parents to our little Baby.
Help us find the courage to take
The right approach for our baby's sake.
Help us to keep you in our hearts everyday
While with our baby we try to play.
We will always wonder why this life had to be
The plan you had for our baby.
We know there are lessons in life we must learn
So please understand our special concerns.
Guide us with your all knowing hand
And help us to do right in our baby's life's plan.
Tarnish hopes,
Polish thoughts
Heaven help us;
Whom would have brought;
Us against the sinners doubt;
How bout' that...
Hollow choice disdain voices

What is this?
Spit at me, will you??
Hiss and spit and rattle your tail?!?
Be my guest, oh Great Coiled One ...
You are king, after all, and I but a fool!
But THIS jester has dealt with your kind before ...
Oh, yes, and far, FAR worse!
There is another creature that shames you in its ferocity ...
Her temperamental and capricious airs
Hold much more menace and fury!
Oh, she can rival the worst of your ire ...
Bare her fangs, hiss and snarl, rattle her tail, and strike ...
She is easily the most formidable opponent man has ever known,
Yet her most insidious and treacherous trait
Is the exquisitely captivating form that wraps her ...
Heaven help us, we are naught but powerless before it!
Oh, it is a deadly and guileful costume, indeed -
A slinky guise that takes your breath at one moment ...
And the next, brings you weeping to your wobbly knees!
So, do your worst, Asp ...
Bring your wicked wrath to bear,
For I have met my match,
And she laughs at your feeble folly
Even now ... this ...
Woman.
Lack
Wanting
Needing more
But getting less
Pray Heaven help us out this fiscal mess
Unplanned suddenly most costly demands
Poorest people
With palmed hands
Hunger
Grows
Growls
And moans
For more life
As it consumes
The simple happiness of humble homes

Triple Tetractys 2
Especially amid the abstract statement by her country's commander in chief ?
That education is the best investment for America's future: feed them to breed them
Surely would seem but, another view ? Albeit, ancient by nature these absolute truths
Waxing gross as cankerous their sores crossing troubled time; pegged of pagans whom
Claim a tomorrow that they shall never find ? Again, extracting the Light to embrace this
Night his waning thought she sings in lullabies, lord Frankenstein ? Who shall confess you
........Afore, `HEAVEN'S MESSIAH, HIS KING OF KINGS`........
She came here on a day most unexpected,
And he took her up and held her in his arms,
Yet,in him she felt the strength she needed,
In his heart he vowed to keep her safe from harm.
It didn't matter what she said she wanted,
Cause to him she was the apple of his eyes,
Though the things she asked for wasn't that important,
She could always count on daddy to supply.
He taught her a side of life that mama couldn't,
Things like warmth,strength,and security,
Though to him she didn't always seem to listen,
But what she learned from him, she taught her family.
There ought to be a hall of fame for daddy's,
Created in the likeness of God,
And heaven help us always to remember,
That the hand that made the cradle,
Strengthens the world.
Liberty Statue
There she stands with torch in her hand.
Beaconing freedom throughout the land.
Welcoming those who come to this land..... of the free.
She doesn't care what color you are.
Whether you come from near or from far.
Many an eye has shed a tear.
To see her so Proudly welcoming you here.
This lady we call Liberty was a gift from France to you and me.
She stands on an island called Liberty, all on her own.
Letting one and all visit her home.
Greeting people of all nations who come to this land.
Liberty is the name she is called.
And Heaven help us if ever does she fall.

Danger in the sky
One deep breath of the dragon
Will destroy mankind
FOR NATURE'S REVENGE CONTEST
Iron eagles overhead
and turmoil on the ground,
above them all a clear blue sky
spreads tranquility around,
then came the magic carpets
black and grey to cast their spell,
and cascading globulets of water
from the heavens fell,
in the hope of giving nature
what it needs to stay alive,
and show that life will still go on
if humans don't survive,
then the golden globe of fire returns
shining as bright as it can,
which means heaven has done it's bit
the rest is up to man.
