A lot of respect Julia to you..In going through the horrors (some isrealis) put on you.'
Among so many others, all advocates
For fairness and peace' yet upon you all
Was violence and torture put, that was
The only gifts they released.' I believe we
Would not see 'eye to eye?' On really every
Thing.' Yet we both as real Australians
i'll say will would look into
just everything.' So despite
Any dichotomy.' Of which there are many
In the world, i say welcome to my heart you
Have done your best.? Yeah gurl.' No need
For all the violence, no need for all the hate
That is now as oppresive and a bad religion.? No its not a bit of me, my mates.' I say leave each Nation to live at rest, to work it
Out for themselves, its maybe fir the best.' No
More lobbying for armouerments, no more
Blood for oil, no more secret satanic
rituals set..
By the name of Jesus, I say' may all such evil fail
fall and fall.'
In a report published by Air Mail, multiple women accused the 53-year-old star of Fight Club, Requiem For A Dream, Dallas Buyers Club and Suicide Squad of inappropriate behaviour.
Use of force is unstoppable when?
Whence?
Confined parameter of work space exists where?
Justice is will
Justice is and is not blind
Dialogue in Retraction as Retreat, A Study as Space
Are you a registered or speculation of lobbying

Testa Di Moro
Sicilian Myths and Folklore videos are a salvo

When others speak
in hushed tones,
behind closed doors,
my voice
rises
for the voiceless.
My heart
only knows
to advocate,
to persuade,
to fight
for the cause.
Cricket, symbol of good luck
Chirping at night like duck
Mantis, jaunting and pray
Lobbying and munching a honey prey
The eyes would rather not engage the world.
Cotton mouth, parched, and aware of a thirst.
The muscles, lobbying to remain curled.
Feet swing to the floor, prepared for the worst.
Stiffness escapes in most audible groans.
Shuffling, a zombie, a gruesome undead.
Articulating two hundred plus bones
Fills the old body with deep sense of dread.
Missy don’t care or she knows how to cure;
Calling me upward and into the day.
The life of a dog, so simple and pure:
There’s time to rest, but it’s now time to play.
First cup of coffee; I just might survive.
Greet the day boldly, alert and alive.
Where are our young people now
Why are they not storming the gates
Perhaps they are being taught that
Ukraine's fight is not linked to their fate
Where are the defenders of freedom
Why are they not storming the gates
Perhaps they think their blood is redder
that Ukrainians' lives don’t matter…
Tens of millions should be marching on Washington
demanding to arm Ukraine with more missiles and guns
Ukraine has the skill and the will to defeat Russia and Putin
~ Just give Zelenskyy* what he needs; his men will do all the shootin’
Stop Russia now; help keep Ukraine free
Don't let Putin, allied with Xi, start World War Three

more armaments from the US for over a month now.
What’s In A Word
Humor: by Miracle Man
November 25, 2021
Today, much time is spent on word substituting,
we’re currently being asked to cease using the word looting.
Hoodlum sympathizers have deemed it a racist word,
but to me, looting’s appropriate, and much preferred.
Some waste time lobbying on a better word campaign,
but taking from another what they've labored to obtain.
In every sense of the word you've become a looter,
and must plead your case before some prosecutor.
Over time words evolved and many are now taboo,
and being called white privileged, I find offensive too.
But I tend to agree and, as always, a straight shooter,
smash and grab is more refined than just plain looter.
“Fools live to regret their words,
wise men to regret their silence.”
Will Henry
Lobbying through Hell,
the politician remanded
To the Devil he stated:
“Your program’s too thin
“You need to refigure
and turn up the heat
“His word’s getting through,
and the Angels all sing”
“It’s not about numbers,
Lucifer cried from the furnace
“It’s not about losses,
but what’s mine to gain
“If only one soul’s
to be trapped here forever
“Your indenture my focus
—let the suffering begin”
(Dreamsleep: September, 2020)
the me-too movement was started by young black women lacking social
opportunity...the media turned that into 'sex between the stars'...now,
while there is quite lewd and gross modern music, the blind fish in the
tank are lobbying against old style vocal-poetry to take it off the radio:
(try to write poetry that sounds like this)

you're not sick you're just in love
stan sand
Another shooting
more innocent children dead
guns for everyone
more families left grieving
NRA now lobbying
If we could delight in everyone with kindness
Our world will be peaceful, never alienating
The ideals and hopes of women, children,
As the freedom of life is a man’s birthright :
Yet, swindlers deceive people who seek
A better tomorrow which is fair, dignified
Respecting not their value of equal opportunity…
But greed malice leaves hopeful dreamers
Sinking in the fissure of broken nights,
Traded like cattle, reduced as slaves, lowly brides
While human trafficking lurks unresolved
A barter, a cruel deal of society’s infraction:
Though I join lobbying for deprived citizens,
Grease of billion dollars hide this ruthless transgression
Why? Why? For bribery offered is intoxicating, enticing,
At the expense of God’s daughters and captive sons.
John Hamilton’s Social Injustice Contest
Written 4/11/2018
Let me get this right. Bribes are under the table and lobbying is on the table Loopholes and something’s rotten in the leaching field
They have awaken the earth again,
The drumers are now asleep painfully.
The black pots are now white and grey;
Whiter than the craving sky, it wasn't so
In the beginning someone compromised.
The women are birthing tears daily,
The suitors have no wife to marry,
The moon is now black and sticky,
They have awaken the earth again
Wives are now husbands and husbands wives.
Someone compromised the beginning,
Someone changed the logo of peace,
Death had been given birth yesterday
And sorrow matured in the life of men.
No one can erease the darkness that emerged.
Fishes no longer swim but fly up there,
Fowls no longer crow but sing down there,
More dangers are created by the ants while
The elephants are seen lobbying mechanically,
Someone compromised the beginning sinfully.
Welcome to the promised land
there is a neutral gate
No need to prove identity
for that's considered hate
Somewhere south of our beliefs
implanted in your brain
The notion that you're truly owed
a life in our domain
Not accepted by the mass
you're still not turned away
Buses waiting for you now
you catch them any day
Choose a place that you desire
they will, help you find work
You know, you have priority
big labor is your perk
Five million permits printed up
they'll pass one out to you
Citizens won't get the jobs
they're pushed aside, it's true
Chamber of Commerce lobbying
to bring the masses here
They lobby hard with everything
the citizens should fear
One day they're going to look around
and see their country's gone
No one to answer, for the mess
"The coming of the dawn".....
