We Must Strive For Political Correctness
By Elton Camp

There’s the devil to be paid
If we call a spade a spade.
“Vertically challenged” means short.

Suicide of An Idol
A woman of mystery
Dressed in red
The blood of jealous women's misery
Her mouth is discretionary
Her words planned perfectly
Others fix their mouths loosely
But with her details, she's choosey
She only said
What she wants spread
Her stories are wildfire
The gossip...

By the time you get off, they'll sit, stay, and lay.
Come out to my office, out there on the beach.
"Sunbrellas" all around connected to...

Once Upon a Time Lived I
To nature's norms have I complied -
I laughed, I cried, I lived. I tried.

There's more to my existence path.

Dear offspring and their offspring...

Depression
depression, it seems to be discretionary
is it ever really necessary?
to kick yourself while you're down?
slap your head and knock off your crown?
is it really sadness or an excuse to feel
do you put yourself there...

Autumnal Equinox
Early morning blue sunny skies askew
turn to white grays on piggyback
once light breezes that blew
gentle in and out the trees comeback
now race wildly out to the sea renewed.
The colors with...

Love Unspoken
What is love?
A visual reverence of well-intended discretionary words,
some ritualistic veneration of the beat of heart and soul,
a manufactured display of hunger and amourousness
an embattled vehemence in thirst quenching lust,
the renderings of innate ensuing...

She Cried Today
The juvenile consent of being fooled
Like the discretionary power was once handed
Blindfolded amist trouble
Shadowed by trust,
Here again I landed
This time the sword of their betrayal
Overpowered the pen
All the education that they had imparted
Within...

a billionaire is refused entry by St Peter

Are recollections on the morrow.
Though we've neatly tucked away,
