Premium Member Why Must I Be Misunderstood?

He bans MSNOW, CNN and Politico
Now even FOX shouts foul! No! No! No!
For our 1st Amendment right
we shall continue to fight,
King Trump, and Hegseth, and Rubio
                                                   —R.G

I march down the block with my neighborhood
Hold signs and picket all day as we should
It’s not a toast for Trump
But a roast of a rump
True patriots defend due process—understood?
                                                                      —I Am Anaya

Premium Member 1 Samuel 21:10-15

The Gathites had heard about
King David by word of mouth
Then in song and dance
King Achish’s servants
Sang of Saul and David’s downing thousands

It was fear that King David bled
He acted the fool instead
Insane and inane he did pretend
And King Achish said
“Do I lack madmen?”

inherently errant AND evil

The cursing blank 
pages held
traces  of
knavish hooded

knights riding

forward for the
sake of
scum un-
godly kings.

Staple me. Label me.  Throw me in a file.
Hide me away among the things you revile.
I'll play and I'll plot and I'll plan all the while
                                                                         s

for when all that was cast aside brightly s
radishes, rhubarbs and cranberry strings -
when doodles and donuts are popsicle kings.


Jesus The King of Kings is Seated on God's Throne

Jesus is Lord Of Lords.
He died for our sins.
Trust in Jesus with your whole heart.
Believe in him over all this world and it's noise.
Trust in Him over everything.
Have faith in Jesus please He died for us.
I Love you all, I hope you Trust in Him.

Do kings ever come?

When i was a little girl, i wished to be a princess that has a king come save her. But does that king ever come? It seems as kings only come in fairytales and never in real life.
Theres all these new definitions that ive learned about like "guy pretty" or ratings, apparently each guy looks for the same features in a girl like light eyes, straight teeth, perfect skin, along with the ratings of how they rate a girl being ugly or beautiful. 
I have never been that girl that guys choose over any other female. I've never been given that unconditional love that everyone talks about. The kind where the guy falls head over heels for a girl and shows that he loves her. Ive never had that and I want that. Its making me question so many things. Like, Am I Unlovable? Am i just pretty enough to look at but not date? Only good when you need me but when you don't i dont matter?
I feel unlovable, I want to be loved but I dont think thats meant for me.

The rout at Tamarisk Bay

I wend my way
to Tamarisk Bay.
White sands glow
beyond the foe.
Amid pink trees
and whispered breeze 
I hear the lilt
of haunting guilt
as pipes intone
a strangled moan
for sacred things
ripped from kings
while throngs gazed
at beauty razed
and cowered mute
when fear did suit.

NO KINGS

NO KINGS YESTERDAY

10 MILLION SOMETHING TO SAY

TRUMP JUST GO AWAY

No Kings

On Saturday, the nation will
Join forces east to west
To protest this administration,
Easy to detest.

Called “No Kings” with no explanation
Offered or required,
There will be large-scale gatherings
This “leader” has inspired.

To show support, I thought I’d buy
Some “No Kings” merchandise – 
A hat or tee or even
Some lapel pins would suffice.

The quickest way to find this
Would be Amazon, for sure.
No matter what you think about it,
Speed’s its biggest lure.

So I was shocked when, on the site,
Most “No Kings” items shown
Could not or would not be delivered
(Cue the sad trombone…)

Until at least the 28th
Or after; either case
Would get here past the point
When “No Kings” day had taken place.

I don’t think it is paranoid
To see Jeff Bezos’ role,
For when it comes to Amazon,
He’s kind of in control.

Ironically, this underscores
How vital is this cause,
For when greed and power rule, we’ve learned,
The kings make all the laws.

Premium Member wrecks

I just watched the olympic opening ceremony
from Paris.
It was sad to see how the stadium booed
the American team and vice President.
 
(NBC muted that for you sensitive Americans).
 
Let’s wax poetic - wax on..
 
They celebrate our country's wreck,
the beggary of brats who delight 
in the cheap satisfaction of ignorance
and take their oath to the corrupt king
 
despite the felon’s many malicious
practises against the state
 
oppression feeds upon such souls
 
They delight in his
blunt and graceless style
and churlish superscriptions
that alter every hallowed surface
 
What fool forsakes friendship, 
respect and alliances for enmity?
 
They could not be the base slaves of
a meaner party - for is there a serpent 
with less good will?
 
wax off..

Faith in False Kings

You call them leaders.
They arrive as liars.
They leave as criminals.

They promise greatness.
You believe.
They promise change.
You believe again.

Is America great?
Is Europe honest?
Is Africa free?
Every continent—
the same deception.

Their lies are sweet
because you taste them
with closed eyes.

Institutions have fallen.
Not by force—
but by ignorance.
We crowned actors.
Not realists.
Not truth-tellers.

How can a man lead you
when he cannot lead himself?
How can a nation trust thieves
with its future?

The rich evade tax.
The government smiles.
The poor pay the price.
Your sacrifice feeds their luxury.

In parliaments,
in congresses,
in the United Nations hall—
theatre.
Nothing more.

Their speeches—
calculated lies.
Their promises—
weapons of comfort.

Poverty is engineered.
Misery is profitable.
Your worship
is their power.

They mastered deception.
You mastered obedience.

Look closely:
What we call “global leadership”
is a monument
built on crime.

Wake up.
False kings rule you—
because you let them.
