I do not understand politics,
I realise I never will
My interest, I'm ashamed to say
It is virtually nil.
But...
At the moment,
I am feeling somewhat fraught
Some politicians who are in power today
They need to do what they ought.
They should abide by the law,
And practice this in court.
But some do not understand the law,
Or they need to remember what they were taught.
Some politicians think that they are above the law
And people can be bought
Then greed creeps in
Which causes problems of a different sort.
My opinion of politicians
May count for naught
But in my humble opinion
There needs to be more order in court.
Whether you are a red state or a blue state,
A Dictatorship, Socialist, or Democracy;
Let us be clear about one thing.
Although it's clear that some man-made
systems are decidedly better than others,
Let us be clear about one thing.
Kings and queens; Presidents and Potentates;
Even Religious States posing as theocracies;
Let us be clear about one thing.
It has been said that all rivers lead to the sea.
But if it's UTOPIA that we are longing to see,
Let us be clear about one thing.
Not all roads go there; not even Christianity.
No political or religious system goes to UTOPIA.
Christianity minus 'ianity' will take us to UTOPIA.
Yes, Christ is the road or the way leading to UTOPIA.
In my humble opinion, UTOPIA is where THE FATHER is.

I table these possible actions.' The U K is a h20 wealthy
Country..' So use that
As a strength..'Seal up the old coal mines, and
Re-purpose them to store rainwater, as the age of hydrogen
is beginning its dawn..' And it will be an invaluble asset to
Make the moist of, ((LOL)) industrial plants could also be located
At these
Catchement points to carry out the works of creating the
Transformatin processes, which would aleviate joblessness'
The ample supply would also be able to address any
Short term drought events, and residual coal dust deposits
Could be mixed with earth to enrich any nearby agricultural land
I see this as a good use of available commoditys and it
May allieviate the need for nuclear power plants to an extent? All this would be much kinder to the ecology also.'
In my humble opinion.'
Till this day, I think of you.
Endearing thoughts my heart once knew.
Caught by surprise, you said, " Good Bye."
Leaving me here, to wonder why.
The heartfelt letters, I sent each night.
Were desperate words, to make things right.
Your love you said, had somehow died.
To hear these words, so have I.
"I wave Bye Bye"
Michael Tor
Inspired by Jesse Winchester's song I Wave Bye Bye, so heartfelt and
beautiful to listen to. Touching your inner emotions for a lost love...
Please go to Youtube and play Jesse Winchester song, I Wave Bye Bye.
Also on YouTube Bob Dylan's song To Make You Feel My Love sung by Garth Brooks. These two songs in my humble opinion are the best two songs ever
written and sung. PS Adele has recently sung To Make You Feel My Love...
Our leadership is failing, more and more each day
What are taxes for and why should we pay?
I’m very confused as to what I keep seeing
Politicians? Government? Who protects our wellbeing?
We need to fast forward and end this vile year
I’m sick of the dirty fights and the political smears
In my humble opinion, we need to bring God back
We have chased him away and stopped dead in our tracks
So much for moving forward and learning from our past
We all need some peace and we need it fast
This path we are on is not where we should be
There is too much at stake that affects you and me
I keep waiting for that pop when our heads get pulled out
Let’s stop acting like animals with the chants and the shouts
We are just hurting ourselves instead of gaining ground
Let’s get rid of this hate and spread more love all around
We Should Abolish
By Franklin Price
06/17/2020
We should abolish everything
Meaning anything to anyone
Tear down all the monuments
Change places just for fun
Erase the marks of history
That someone might object
Tear down the Giza pyramids
Slaves built them I suspect
Change those names and places
Monuments and other things
Don't recognize why they are there
You ignorant ding-a-lings
Whether it was good or bad
That put them in their place
We should look at them as history
As a time we had to face.
If we forget to our history
Erase it from our eyes
Soon it will repeat itself
Bringing back what we despise
If you believe there is truth in what I have written here, please pass it on in any manner you have available. We should never forget history or remove it from our lives. If we do, it will surely repeat itself. If anything, ever went viral, this manner of thinking should.....In my humble opinion...
Another Day Another Shooting
another day in paradise
just another day in America
land of the free
Home of the brave
and guns
lots of guns
more guns for all
cries the NRA
yes another day
another gun battle
another white man
who just wants to kill
the President sends his condolences
Thanks the law enforcement
for an incredible job well done
It was horrible
Hate has no place
in our country
and we will take of it
and do what ever we can do
condolences
nothing but false words
empty words
lots of things to do
it is mental illness problem
but he fails to mention
the words gun at all
not at all
and tomorrow and tomorrow
but he at least finally said
hate has no role in country
nothing but prime BS
in my humble opinion
he did not mention
white supremacy
his rhetoric had nothing
nothing to do about this at all
and so tomorrow
I will turn on the TV
and we see
nothing at all
and the dead
will remain dead
the guns will fire again
nothing will be done
welcome to America
land of the free
home of the brave
To define “genius” we only need utter the name Mozart
All things considered, in my humble opinion, he's off the chart
Few words describe his talent
His concertos from other planets
Few have equaled his passion, it touches the heart
PU-LEEZE...Freddie Kruger
jumping out of dark closets?
Cut! Cut! That’s enough!
What is true terror?
Daylight and brightly lit rooms
Evil put to light…
‘The Shining’…Best use of special effects ever in a movie (In my humble opinion)
Life is too short and death is so long.
In my humble opinion, God got that one wrong.
When one gets so self absorbed with earning a living,
one tends to forget the virtue of giving
freely of one's self to benefit others in need.
The return one receives from such selfless deeds
are far greater than could ever be attained with money.
I volunteer my services and time absolutely free
in whatever manner I can, in whatever capacity.
Many of they I help go on to help others eventually.
In my humble opinion, such a way of living could replace money easily,
and oh what a wondrous world this would be.
One can not pursue greed monetarily
in a society that openly volunteers freely.
Lizards or Birds
What difference would it make to the humans in the mezoic age if the dinosaur
was made of leather or just skin with wings or without a giant bird or reptile if
your hanging in it is mouth a morsel for the smorgasbord of love without a doubt
just making meat for something else to eat and hanging out. Let us ask the
paleontologist the good Dr. Hice sir in laymen's terms please tell us all you knoe
about the dinosaurs. The eye once saw a giant condor face to beak without a
doubt the ugliest of creeps the bird was ugly you had to be there sort of thing. And
Stinks. In my humble opinion the dinosaurs were never lizards but most all of
them was birds at least the condor were.
