Premium MemberWaltz of the Lemmings

Decisions we take, and thoughts that we think
Are not necessarily dumb
You mock us for we blindly follow our king
Would you like to be a Holy Lamb?
If you say why me, then we say why not
If Jesus is King, than you should 
If you say its completely different plot
Then we say you are devil’s food
Sing along:
La-la-la-la,

Lemmings Into Lemonade

Today on my way home i chose to
permeate my daily grind

By buying myself a chicken to cook
once i got home 

The reason being i am trying to be more positive

It can't rain all the time

As i wanted to break the wishbone
and wish for better thing's to come

Then instantly after dinner i went into my back

On Lemmings, Chickens, and Things

Across the Tundra, lemmings race
To the cliff, then over the face.

The prevailing theory laments
That this is not mass hysteria
But miscalculated judgment
In migratory behaviour.

And I watch my neighbours hoarding
Lest they should find themselves wanting;
Epitomes of ascendancy
Clipped to animistic qualities.
Flailing arms scurry to the abyss
Repeating, ‘The sky is falling!’

And I, a social misfit,

Town Hall Lemmings

The town hall clock chimed twelve
And the crowds they were  a' swelling,
A vision came into my mind
They reminded me of lemmings.

Of course there was no waiting cliff
No fabled deadly leaping,
Just an endless tidal flow
Onwards, ever creeping.

Each it seemed held a phone
'Twas quite a sight to see,
No colliding nor incidents
It was choreography!

We have evolved a

WHO will pay for the wall?
	Mexico will pay for the wall
who WILL pay for the wall?
	MEXICO MEXICO
who will PAY for the wall?	
	100% Mexico will pay for the wall
who will pay for the WALL

WHO WILL PAY FOR THE WALL?

Many tell me I Donald Trump
 can not get Mexico to pay for the wall
I promise

Lemmings To a Cliff

Instincts stored from antiquity
Leather bound books; library in the mind
Beautiful tragic collections and revisions
The conundrum of neurology; conflict presides

Endowed with supreme cognition
Cursed, condemned by the residue of blind drives
Irreconcilable emotional juxtapositions
Humanities ironical demise

Profoundly ignorant, unabashed, and indifferent
Audacious opinions of uninformed certitudes
In the end, passions rule reason
The instinctual beast can’t be subdued

Like Lemmings to a cliff

Lemmings’ Cliff Run
                       by Odin Roark

Might it be

We are naively gullible 
Believing like the Lemmings
From the ocean-cliff’s edge
Down below looks like a lake
So it must be a lake
Even though our species
Should know better

Could

Premium MemberLemmings Never Pay the Phone Company

"Tree huggers” use AT&T
The human cost catastrophe
On the horizon
Like text from Verizon
Is sent with the speed of 4G
 
Pollution's still booked at no 
cost
And Earth’s expenses neatly tossed
Off the balance sheet
With a "Sprint" so complete
The effects on nature seem lost 

Yes EPA rules do offend
Those who crave Earth’s wealth without end
They claim to hate debt
But

Lemmings

En mass, a colossal fedora 
covering entire islands 
lunar eclipses 
Move in constant rhyme 
Pebbles the size of mighty thunderheads 
And rivers with caps will not hold you back 

Just a matter of time 
swarm the meadows and the forests 
leave clues but insufficient for the sleuth 
invincible, not corrupt but not holy, 
but why?
