Look up not down!



Everything’s going down thanks to the tangerine clown

His cohorts blood sports “muppets” the collective noun 

This lout every town does rout either drought or drown 


Farce as the grass burns turns brown is so easy to frown

Naked truth everyone knows about Emperor’s new gown 

Half baked common sense forsaked with his faked crown


Bereft at not deft sheer heft of non stop theft by top tier

Tries to smear races from other places & anyone que*r

Walk the plank every rank does spank cranks up a gear 


It is clear this is the dystopian nadir the world does fear

Does appear the end’s near just jeer at all we hold dear

Bunkum as do strum our spectrum with their plectrum

Sneer at us out of their rectum.. but still no referendum


Fair dinkum is a nostrum atop the rostrum our panacea

Little wins that dampens the din of the mandarins sins

Society spins beaming grins replace steaming chagrins  

Ignore the scheming as that’s how the dreaming begins


So let’s save the teens and free them from their screens

Let them see it’s not all about these mean online ravines

Prevent their descent as everyone does vent their spleens

Vanquish their anguish as do languish in internet latrines 


Mother Nature has the sheens her kaleidoscopic canteens

Hypnotic colours she preens bathed & swathed in greens

Quixotic pleasure of leisurely stroll which your soul cleans  


By any means chill your beans is a skill which’s in our genes

Shun despotic rhetoric be an envoy for joy of other cuisines

Weans ourselves out of the trough with our poetic vaccines    

Exotic almost erotic scenes all feel like real kings & queens


So when that obscene tangerine clown again goes to town

Nature will be our saviour so come on do yourself a favour

So much free flavour to savour if you look up and not down

People as Friends and kettles?

"My things as you."
People as Friends and kettles?
"My things as you."
The witness deprived 
Absorbent in deny
How in interchange 
Are we spoken
Misleading waste
Papers as snakes
Only in cuisines
Last, hander of things
Gone in time
Decade of take
Sales of ink
And all town
How to announce 
Tone?
And all are tow'n

Being towed in the time
 Time of all Involved as microcosm In discussion from?


Fearing reprimand of ink as letters ?
Allowing incorrect Consistent sing 
the blind justices repeal?
 Confound surrender?

Your not printing the article 
Your afraid of reading 
And the "free" cost! 
Remains are extensive

The times grow small inside of earths journals

My sistas
A good woman once prevailed 
Yet as her eyes sight the abandonment vessel
Reluctant wrath hatred vision
Prometheus googles
Declare upon the abomination 
This place the unaffected

Royalty

Kings had fine feasts with rare foods from afar.
I can drive to restaurants serving cuisines of all kinds.

Kings prided themselves on fast and strong horses.
My truck is much faster and is hundreds of times stronger.

Kings boasted of jesters and musicians.
I have YouTube.

Kings called upon scholars for answers.
I have Wikipedia.

Kings went on pilgrimages to far away lands risking their lives against diseases, disasters, and war.
I can fly almost anywhere in less than 24 hours.

Kings could bathe or purchase expensive perfumes.
I have a shower, deodorant, and shampoo.

Kings had to wage wars, build castles, lead armies.
I have to pay rent.

Kings had to fear assassins and usurpers.
I'm one of millions.

Kings had little defense against diseases.
I have modern medicine.

So, no, I don't live like a king - I live better.

Premium Member Knowing People Then & Now

People I used to know,
People I don’t want to know, who are
Not capable of creating life, yet—crushing 
Its beauty like the road-raged driver of a  
Loose truck driven over freshly fallen snow on 
The landscape, where kids played, now cried.
Agonizing people, with so-called pure 
Blood racing through their veins, like water 
Over Niagara Falls—crushing,
Until resting in a disguised flow.

My heart is crying over life’s destructive beauty.
While dining with questionable royalty, 
Giving meals to those who are hungry,
Helping indentured servants over the fences
Of plantations with repressive conditions.
Setting caged birds free from beating 
Their breasts and scared wings against
The bars of subliminal captivity; mending 
Souls from despair of political fear.

Hear the rising voices of Bradley, Garvey, 
Marley, Delany, Kennedy, Turley, and 
Inspiring students at USC Berkeley crying 
For liberation. People I yet to know, 
Whose touch will be like the beautiful 
Butterfly with wings spread, floating 
Upward in such harmony with melody. 
People whose passion will let us 
Know, like Harriet Stowe, 
How high life is 
Capable to grow!

Premium Member They Are Eating The Dogs

They are eating the dogs
They are eating the cats
They are eating the pets
They are eating the wild hogs.

In the early 20th “c”, Germans used to eat blockade mutton
That’s absolute truth. It’s a shame that this felon
Is desperate and going wild. The dude is a pathological liar
Who will do anything. He’s a tremendous cheater.

Immigrants do not eat the pets
Especially Haitians who love chickens
Tassot or griot meats, black rice and beans.

Haitians love Soup Joumou with lots of carrots
Haitians enjoy one of the best cuisines on the planet
Liar, liar, nobody is perfect. That’s correct.

Premium Member Sweetheart Dumpling—marshmallow

Oh my sweetheart, charming and eloquent,
Honey pie, sugar plum, with sweet raisins,
So soft like cotton candy that just melts,
My apple pie with ice cream and cherry.
Sweet as glazed donuts filled with apricots,
Tasty sugar dumpling in lentil soup,
Delish as juicy mangoes freshly picked
My shaking jello mixed with nice yogurt.
Sweet lips like honey with a dripping comb,
Such chanting bedroom eyes enticing me,
Your crimson cheeks symbolizing fragrance 
Warm passionate breath stimulates my soul.

Such grander is my honey suckle doll,
Her charm turns me into a marshmallow!

Premium Member Signs and Times

You say: Wrong place—wrong time,
Maybe: Wrong place—not right time,
Not right place—but wrong time?
I say: This's right place—right time, 
In times and places,
What is the time?
Where is the place
For right not wrong?
Is this like signs
Tearing up the scenery;
What about my mind?
Don't what? I can read the sign!
Oh—Signs of the time?
What’s wrong is not right,
Lord, I will sing this song!
Fight for what’s right 
Correct what's wrong!
In all times and places
Oh, salvation!
Please, be alright,
And make it—
On time!

Premium Member Infectious Flower

My once precious flower,
Your fragrance has plateau:
The beetles lurking in the dark,
and crawling with the thrust 
of the wind when it’s light
are mischievous, and they have
no love within their hearts.

Enveloping the essence of
your core, and your once flourishing 
inner beauty; they have uncovered 
your shining passion of lost light,
which was once a beacon of hope,
thus, your once lovable soul—they
now consume!
