Premium Member 'The End is Near,' We're Accustomed to Hear

    
      ‘The End is Near’
          We’re accustomed to hear
        From the prophets of gloom
           and the peddlers of doom

        First it was overpopulation 
           Earth could never support two billion 
        We’d have to skimp on food, serve c-rations 

        Then came what would surely kill us all
           The ultimate weapon, the atom bomb
               But JFK and Kruschev stayed calm

        Next up was pollution 
           that blackened the sky
        Thank goodness, we didn’t notice
           we were too busy getting high

        All the elites became pot-heads
        Congress and Wall Street were hooked on weed
           which simply increased their phenomenal greed…  

       Lately, ‘global warming’ has become the ‘in thing’
           Doesn’t that have a familiar ring?
       Those who want to ban motor-cars and plastic bags
            Own private planes, their only ‘sacrifice’ – jet lag ...

        As for me, I pitch in and do my level best
             Cut my grass with a scissors, shovel snow with a spoon
        I sure hope all my efforts will soon bear fruit
             Before my seaweed meals emit their last photosynthetic toot

Hotel Encore the End 5 of 11

Get up and at ‘em be strong,
feeling I am reborn,
coming back and full on
like an atom bomb!

Expose their corruption 
my life saw disruption 
I’m putting right the wrong
from where I left off,
unsighted and lost,
but I’ve worked it now,
connect the dots,
going berserk (bloaw).

All I needed was understanding,
couldn’t tell, look potty and shot,
standing strong now, shouting all I’ve got.

Giving it back to cowards
for slander attack, you aint empowered,
and this ain’t back handers or slapped faces,
it’s baseball bats and collapsed in places, 
metaphor, you fool, 
I use words to tell all.

Remember me?
Obsessed with bringing me down,
made an enemy,
left me beaten on the ground,
it wasn’t the end of me,
by you my friend I’ll never be!!

You changed me and strained me,
left me mentally exhausted and drained,
controlling my reputation, like trolls,
shrinking opinions,
Satan spawn minions.

Strolling through life in the free,
silently proud of what you did to me,
living fearless, all clear,
wetting your pants when I reappear,
and I’ve no fear,
alive so all can hear,
survived to get here!!

I’ve so many angles to ring bells,
shake up made up minds in that hotel,
you contaminated them then, now they don’t care,
until one thought they have seems spare,
so they think back to yesteryear,
and suddenly link up as question marks appear,
as lost logic starts to become clear.

What I say will line up, ring alarms, 
dislodge your corrupt,
I’m not out for physical harm or have you in a line up.

Telling my story, it’s written, 
it’s just this,
come back biting poetic justice,
think I fight just fists, 
I've wit and you're just twits.

Now I understand, I drop it move adjust flourish,
understand why I was discouraged,
putting truth on a perch, it ain’t perjury, 
my story you got me personally.

and others won’t see the truth if they choose not,
but it’s there in view and now won’t move or be forgot, 
so if people refuse they do as they do, 
in time they may question clues and ask questions of you.

I’m done with it now anyway, 
spoke and exposed,
my link to all this now disposed.
All I needed was to understand, now I do,
I’m a rose re-rose and roses grow,
with thorns that warn, 
I’m done now, letting go.

And I’m feeling good too,
I’m living life, and I’m not you.

Premium Member She Was a Giant Terrific Mom

Was a giant terrific Mom
Had talents and habits galore
A natural mom to her core

The head of the family kingdom
Who took wise care of those she bore
Best of those who had gone before

Did not waste any time, my Mom
A simple soul, who knew life’s score
So many came to her front door

Did not believe in atom bomb
She wanted no one killed or sore
A peacemaker forevermore

Was a giant terrific Mom
The head of the family kingdom
Did not waste any time, my Mom
Did not believe in atom bomb
Peacemaker forevermore

Poisoned Mushroom

Poisoned Mushroom                   

                 ~The Atom Bomb will kill.~
                ~Death to all of mankind, at will.~
        ~Nothing is left, bodies evaporate forever.~
      ~Poison to the souls, the connection; severed.~
   ~The human race as we know it, will be no more.~
   ~Nothing left on earth to discover and to explore.~
  ~Beautiful bright skies and the green luscious earth.~
  ~Dusky skies, radioactive dust; silence and no mirth.~
  ~The world will never be the same, man is to blame.~
   ~There’s nothing left, to hold and nothing to claim.~
      ~Pray that this hand is not played out.~
            ~Not to live in radioactive fallout.~
                  ~To breathe the fresh air.~
                    ~For mankind to care.~
                      ~Before it’s to late.~
                        ~For mans fate.~
                         ~Peace for all.~
                           ~Last Call.~
                           ~Breath or~
                             ~Death.~
                              ~Strife~

Premium Member Dad Was the Last Snowflake

The last great snowflake standing
Little snowflakes fell swiftly
All around the house they fell
Eight male flakes_three little girls

House was lively in winter
As they all warmed by the fire
Boys' boistour tales, girls brush long hair
Then silence all rested heads

At four A.M. each morn_chores
Breakfast, lunch packed off to school
Walking that long mile was rule
School was important dad said

Soon the oldest snowflake wed
As life goes all followed him
Leaving the warm hearth behind
Some of them to produce twins

As life goes_death visited
All their humble doors sadness
Some had children die at birth
And some at very young age

What they saw in their lifetime
Changes that took place_cars_planes
Atom bomb that ended war
None their warm family disgraced

Death started visiting doors
One above  middle went home first
Then slowly they all went home
But dad was the last snowflake

A Jew's blues

It looks like curtains for the Jews
Since I'm Jewish, this gives me the blues
Leftist youth in England, watch TikTok and spread
and anti-Jewish theories there are coming to a head.

Muslims in western Europe, even before this Gaza war
have tortured, killed Jews, religious reasons for.
Some Jews hide their faith in New York, don't want to be harassed
They know antisemitism is not a vestige of the past

There's a Jewish State, but it can't survive alone
If the U.S. turns against it, where is the Jewish home?
Europe can't resist its immigrant tide
At Israel's end of days, who will be on its side?

Now you might think I'm confusing two attitudes
You can dislike Israel, but still befriend the Jews
But if Israel is destroyed, its Jewish inhabitants are too
And if you're Jewish in the USA, Jihad won't skip you.

China and Russia side with Iran, a country of Jihad
Iran believes the Jews are enemies of God
For in the Koran, it says that Jews are the main enemies of Islam
Not what I want a billion people to believe, some with an atom bomb.

Jews in the west have been pushed out of their profession groups
Jews can say they're anti-Israel, they can jump through hoops
But the writing is on the wall, and what it says is grim
the letters still spell "mene tekel upharsin."

Jews have been shot in the U.S. by idealists on left and right
How is this something that anyone could fight?
Especially if you're in a black coat, studying bible all day
Or a Jewish leftist who wonders where the left did stray.

So, I'll stop here, stop spreading the bad news
But it doesn't look good, for my fellow Jews.
I'm not spiritual, don't want to be in a scrimmage
Man is too dumb to have been made in God's image.

From the Beginning

A millionth of a grain of sand, maybe even that is too large
To something that's so grand yet man thinks he's in charge
Just the size of our sun or the vastness of Jupiter and Saturn
It's so much fun watching scientific men in taking their turn

A billion billion galaxies expanding at a faster and faster pace
Yet in science everyone agrees that none of this is God's Grace
135 thousand years it would take the shuttle to get to one star
When will they awake to the nothingness as Godless one's are

An atom bomb can only destroy where as God's Glory Created
Where as some share this joy these others try to dissipate it 
Seeking life where it is not again never mentioning His Glory
Such Glory they can never plot especially not knowing His Story

To a single cell filled with unique DNA His Creation being so great
What else would anyone dare say thus risking upon their very fate
If you see His sun rise tomorrow and you still don't understand
I might beg, steal or borrow but I won't be the One to demand

Genesis 1:1
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Premium Member Think Again

Think Again

I think of stuff all day
I think of stuff all night
Sometimes I think stupid
Sometimes I think bright
But I never think it wrong
Cos I am always right
At least that’s what the missus says
If we have a fight

I get ideas that turn out good
And some that turn out bad
Once I wrote a poem
That made me seem quite mad
I get all sorts of ideas
When it’s time for bed
No light bulb popped up ever
I think we’ve been misled

There’s never been a ‘Ping!’
As an idea hit my brain
No eyeball exclamation mark...
That would be insane
And if I ever find a cure
For a life that’s getting bleaker
I’ll take you on a bet...
I’ll never shout ‘EUREKA!’

But as a prosperous poet (yeah right)
Thoughts are my bread and butter
My notions come from angels hearts
And some from in the gutter
Sometimes when I cannot sleep
The thinking must be stopped
I lay awake to find a way
But the penny’s never dropped

Ideas float into my brain
But then sink like a brick
For each of Shakespeare’s sonnets
I write a limerick
One man designed a paper clip
And one an atom bomb
I guess we’ll never know
Where our deepest thoughts come from

Premium Member An Escape Rocket In 1964

Fine November evening in 1964, when rocket ships were in vogue.
This one was no different, except it had been built by my family
As an escape device, in case the Cold War became a hot one.
We were afraid of Russia, of course. And the atom bomb.

A dragon sky of many hues winked in the distance;
She was blowing fire to the west, in the form of a sunset
Our red ruby rocket stood ready, in full launch mode.
All we had to do was add fuel and push the button.

Will we land in Saturn or Mars? We wondered. But Daddy was silent.
He said not to worry, but this was the sixties. People were assassinated.
The mist upon the turquoise lake gave me a feeling of calm.
Surely the Russians were not going to push the button tonight. Right?

Premium Member Happy New World


Happy New World

A new day glows as the year comes to close
Opting for true love that rejects old throes,
Wishing happiness for all ringing heavenly bells,
Offering hand of friendship as tranquility dwells.

No need to waste time making elaborate plans,
A silent prayer in unison will awaken all hands
Linking solidarity to defeat emissaries of evil
When angels will join in to vanquish the devil.

Citizens of this world over seven billion strong
Have enough power to defy mighty atom bomb,
For no one would die if no one would fight,
Refusing to pull trigger will end unsightly fright.

Healing won't begin until we recognize the pain
Hiding in places where despair and grief reign.
A tiny part of each of us can restore dignity
As people rise-up to save anguished humanity.

May volunteers bring smiles to saddened faces
As regal actions shine brightly in angelic graces.
Imagine billion hands reaching to those in need
Uplifting resolutely, engaged in a noble deed.

May the world unite with heartfelt compassion
As message of kinship reverberates true passion.
In a world without wars there are no weapons
For trust builds friendship that peacefully beckons.

May new-year dawn wishing happy new world to all,
May deliverance of goodness answer every call,
May courage dominate defying perils big and small,
May harmony loom large as unity stands tall.
