Premium Member We're All Equal

We must never forget that
we're human beings, above all.
We're God's children, all equal in his eyes.
We need to treat each other 
with the utmost respect and dignity.
We need to learn how to peacefully co-exist.

Notwithstanding our deity of worship -
Whether you call God just that, God, 
or Allah, or El-Shaddai, or Bhagwan.

Notwithstanding the language
we speak, or the accent
of our speech, domestic or foreign.

Notwithstanding our politics -
Democrat, Republican, or Independent,
or even party-free.

Notwithstanding our race -
White, Black, Hispanic, Asian; whether you 
check "Other" on application forms.

Notwithstanding our religion -
Catholicism, Judaism, Hinduism, Mormonism,
Buddhism, Islam, and so on.

Notwithstanding our culture,
belief system, financial status, sexual orientation, 
or how we dress. Whether we're believer or atheist.

Notwithstanding the side
of the railroad track we hail from...

We must never forget that
we're human beings, above all.
We're God's children, all equal in his eyes
We need to treat each other 
with the utmost respect and dignity.
We need to learn how to peacefully co-exist.

In the final analysis, we are all equal!

Hunting In Hollywood

Sweet, little blond thing,
just off the plain from Kentucky,
she’s a solid seven, no higher,
painful to listen to her
reciting lines out loud.
Wants to be an actress,
fresh-faced and eighteen,
just have to dangle bait,
a few bit parts on a sit-com,
walks into the trap, doesn’t resist
just takes of her top…

Thirty-something Asian actress,
has played the ‘best friend’
several times, wants a
leading part. She’s afraid
her career has stalled,
doesn’t know what to do next.
Her agent tells me he
told her to be ‘nice’ to
the producers, and they’ll
be nice back. Looks ashamed
as she unbuttons her jeans…
I love that look…Such easy prey…

Forty-four-year-old pin-up blond,
has graced men’s magazines
and summer blockbusters.
Lines form around her eyes,
the roles stop coming
but she has a mansion,
and an ex-husband on alimony,
needs to work.
“Let’s get this over with,”
she says, walking right
into my sights…

You asked about hunting…
Wait, you men those people
who go out and shoot deer?
Bunch of monsters, vicious
backwoods hicks. Thankfully
we have evolved past that…

I am Spider-Man

Setting my base in a Smurf-blue house, I hide,
Weaving a web of nerves on every side.

Next door, the groans of neighbors shake the floor,
My web's vibration drives away my prey once more.

My own dawn groans rise up into the air,
I am not alone; someone steals my fare.

"Floor-to-Floor Noise"

Upstairs, a washing machine spins late at night,
A slamming door greets the morning light.

Asians need no alarm clocks to wake,
Every sound breaks the peace we try to take.

I long to drive out and escape the street,
Yet trapped again, where parking cars compete.
I make a call,
No one answers at all.

For Asians, a holy life belongs alone
To those who dwell in luxury's high-rise zone.

Because a lush forest garden waits for them to steer,
With open roads and skies so crystal clear.

Living in this Smurf-house lane, confined,
A tiny car blocks the path ahead, unkind.
No one answers my desperate plea,
Panic sets in, anxiety running free.
I am running late.

My boss's warning strikes with iron weight:
"One more delay, and you seal your fate!"

In Asian neighborhoods, a parking feud can bloom,
A fleeting second of sudden death and doom.

While the rich in luxury apartments are so slow and grand,
Where sweet floral fragrances drift across the land.

"The poor must tread upon the blades of grass beneath their feet,
While the wealthy hear the grass sing songs of joy, complete."

The Former Double Life of Matthew Scott Harris

The (former) Double Life Of Matthew Scott Harris

Dove finch he following iniquitous

     only asks prays foe praise,
     and who doth newt

     whose critical judgement
     toward my errant friskiness,
     aye snuffed out light

and accepts dues
     against prickly don'ts,
     and opted to risk broad

12032018PoSoupContest, Would You Still Love Me?, Edward Ibeh


Just like before another illegal war



Forget International law we’re going to war

Bloodlet betrayal Israel settles an old score

Rational regret nope they’ve done it before


Democracy trumps theocracy don't be a bore

Ideology analogy rampant hypocrisy the core

Encore beast feasts on Middle East once more


Yanks a bellicose hero no gung ho Emperor Nero

Iran has how many nuke warheads ..yep ZERO

Know North Korea has at least sixty..so hey ho 


Tehran has subverted & really perverted the Quran

Mistook a book which dearly above all is about love

Protests hushed and clearly crushed by an iron glove

Vulture that killed Persian culture and became Iran


Recurring theme yes yet another despicable regime 

We get the gist of the tryst to enlist be a misogynist

Twist with that insatiable hunger to be a warmonger


Confessed annihilation dressed up as emancipation

Just like the Vietnamese wheeze an illegal invasion

Afghanistan and Pakistan but not always only Asian 


Hark back to Iraq those weapons of mass destruction

Iran made up glory story crass Bush & Blair production

No compunction Trump’s voter slump needs a ruction


Shouting we did collar Khamenei the deadly scholar

Flouting drastic snide bully tactic plied again with pride

No better than Hezbollah raving craving every oil dollar

We holler you’re killing women & kids like the Ayatollah


Displaced races & harrowed faces can’t choose a side

Bow & kowtow right now or you’ve got nowhere to hide

Nethanyahu retinue continue with the US by their side

Permitted even after in Gaza they committed genocide


The West rules poor people just tools schools of mules

We’re not fools we know who drools over fossil fuels

But if there is a sliver of silver lining shining in the sky

Defining demise of the ersatz ex pat twa*s tax free lie

Goodbye to the whining rash brash flash hellhole Dubai!

The Great Sea.Rocks

A nd so began the Great Repair as the Corners came together there, Four a meeting of Winds,
N ine to find is the task at hand. Owl flew to be as One with Great Mind over land to find
R hyme for the mend.ing ...

N ature called for a Song and the Great Sea is list.ing.
A re we listen.ing? Dragon waits in the Open slowly showing guiding knowing....
U p on high beyond the Great Sky a map was drawn and remains glowing. A beacon of
K nowledge for our well Be.ing.

P eAce is on and it beams a bright light. Pulsing it is in past Future sight...
AND so join flocks in the air, Great Sea moves and Rocks are aware. Nature to
C orrect an error of o.mission returning soon is due the Wishing.Time.
A nd so it was written in the sounds of the Great Clock.
B e. PeAce see a message of the Rocks.




Guanyin (Chinese: ??; pinyin: guan yin; Wade-Giles: kuan-yin) is the bodhisattva
associated with compassion as venerated by East Asian Buddhists, usually as a female. The
name Guanyin is short for Guanshi'yin (???, pinyin: guanshì yin, Wade-Giles: kuan-shih
yin) which means "Observing the Sounds (or Cries) of the World".Wiki


In Vietnamese, the name is Quán Âm or Quán Th? Âm.

Melodious Symphony

Spring the magical season of natural splendour, 
It's glory brightens and blooms every life, 
Birds chirp in meadows and call for their mates;
The tap-tap of the woodpeckers, 
And their courtship dances, 
Welcome the mating season in cheer.

The bold Ashy prinia with perky tail
Found in thickets, the jungle mynahs 
Seen in noisy groups at sunset, 
The spotted owlet with a hooting sound, 
Seen in banyan and peepal trees, 
Are sights of delight after a dreary winter.

The white-browed wagtail, 
Scurrying in open spaces wagging its tail, 
The pond heron with its yellow eyes, 
And the Asian koel singing kik kik, 
His mate too joining, singing kuoo kuoo, 
Create a symphony of magical melody.

DMV

You need a smart phone to get your number.
Take a picture of the square with the code,
answer the text message, “yes I am here”.
My number D106, better take a seat.

The interracial gay couple next to me, are awfully
grabby for 8:45 am, just mind your own business.
But, why doesn’t the white guy have any shoes on, 
and why just socks, that when purchased were probably white.

Now serving D100

The rather large lady to my left requires two seats.
Whats the deal with women and tights and what’s is
the largest size available, in purple? 
Her perfume choice, ode to yesterday’s cigarettes.

Now serving D101

Mr, I work for the highway department, walks buy and takes a seat.
Neon yellow shirt and jeans say, we were washed four or
five days ago and worn everyday since.
Presumably his wife, who doesn’t do laundry often, sits beside him.

Now serving D102

Two Asian men enter followed by a teenager, maybe a son.
He reads the billboard and explains the process.
Both men remove their phones and follow his instructions.
Three seat together is going to be hard to find.

Now serving D103

Across the way, a family of four, teenage daughter wearing pjs.
A Halloween motif with Michael Myer’s masked face.
Since it’s only mid September, aren’t we rushing the season a bit?
Then again, given the black lipstick and nail polish, maybe not. 

Now seeing D104

Now, the shoeless gay guy gets up and jumps at the ceiling.
He’s trying to remove the cobweb hanging in front of the monitor.
Nice try, but at maybe 5’5”, LeBron James he is not.
His partner urges him to return to his seat.

Now serving D105

You know they sent you a notice: Renew by mail.
It even allowed you to do it on line, save a stamp.
But no, the picture was out of date, nearly eight years ago.
So here your sarcastic ass sits.

Now serving D106 “Thank the Lord!”

She’s behind the glass, the remnants of Covid.
Her lips are moving, but no sound is coming through.
I point to my ears and shrug. She increases her volume.
Yes, wish to renew my drivers license.

Sign the application where highlighted and $24.
Wow, 4 bucks cheaper in person, what a deal.
Picture taken, temporary printed, permanent in 30 days.
Outside finally and look down, what a horrible picture.

George Washington Set Potus Precedent

This revolutionary fella followed by 
Adams family patriarch,giving rise 
twin heir (plain lee gifted "Renaissance 
Man") Jeff force'n without hemming 

and hawing, subsequently conceding 
nexus (nor horse drawn Lexus) of Colonial 
power to Madison, thence Monroe 
buttoned up as suitable candidate after 
which younger Adams elected.

Thirty four followed Jackson's club 
trumpeting (some Obama nib bully) 
bushwhacking their way predicated 
on faulty Algorithm, charming 
charismatically with hint of Clint 

like glint in eyes, blinding populace, 
sans ray gun (Reagan), Car Tour ring 
with peanut gallery in tow, affording 
(unpopularly pardoning unfashionably), 
a Jerry rigged nixed son, followed

by John's son tainted by stain of Vietnam, 
but with said Southeast Asian debacle, 
one ken heady (sporting thick styled hair) 
inherited an internecine conflict, essentially

precipitated, when Eisenhower hardened 
political stance against any allies of the 
Soviet Union, (sans The Viet Cong), and 
pledged his firm support to Diem 
and South Vietnam.

Now with preceding administration, one 
harried true man unleashed advent of atomic 
spectra upon Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, this 
purported preemptive measure scary ruse

felt to thwart exaggerated Japanese government 
threat (military intelligence) scheming to 
wreak untold havoc upon American troops 
within the Pacific theater of World War II.

The former horrific decision controversial, 
then and to this day Hoover expert historian, 
diverge, asper corroborating the necessity 
to usher in the Cold War, yet majority foreign 

policy wonks might grudgingly attest that 
said thirty first commander in chief did maintain 
a Cool Edge throughout onset when doomsday 
clock began countdown to Armageddon,
 
an unimaginably blaring, deafening, earsplitting...
cacophony distant rumbles heard, nonetheless, 
no Hard dinning ghoulish nightmare (potentially 
obliterating all life on planet Earth) haunted 

Wilson, nor Taft, only gunboat diplomacy 
mere child's play exhorted, less catastrophic 
comparison, when Teddy Roosevelt wielded 
"big stick schtick" namesake corollary to the 
Monroe Doctrine in 1904...ad nauseum.
