Father man, valued planner
and earner at your wife's side,
pillar of our homes,
children's needs are met
with your fathering
and in return you're a happy father.
“Our Father in heaven...."
pray the people, that's your appraisal.

Respectful, 
knitting the social web...

How can I mingle with the poor, I’m a millionaire,
My intellect superior,
And the masses inferior.
I am a street sweeper, my name is Jane,
Passers by think I’m insane,
I am the sole earner in a family of...

A boy meant to be strong
And unbreakable but here
Contradictingly wrong
His heart lay shattered in chaos,
Broken inside by circumstances.
Growing up he never knew wht
Peace meant, trying to
Cease the burdens of
 his folks. 

His head lay heavy
For...

Oh they can’t, oh they can’t. They can’t Compare to these bright  city lights 

The silent  screaming and pain can’t compare to these comfortable nights...

but too extreme to make me
the constant victim of his insults
and a prisoner to his pride.

Curtis is a reflection of current culture.
Yes he is, but that’s not my ride,

Sometimes it seems hard to believe,
But nobody can challenge a truth.

When I was a child and studying,
In a primary school, my elder brother,
Had died, mum didn’t eat 
For three days, I and my brother also,
Didn’t...

I retired gracefully, happily, knowing I could never be fully completely replaced even to this day.
I was slick, photographic, revered by so many, loved by a few, heavy, a bit conceited but in a good...

I listen to the Leftists
I listen to the Rightists
  They are not among the brightest.

The Leftists want a $15 minimum wage, a guaranteed job
For every wage-earner in the US, be he gentleman or slob.

Inside the room in the administrative offices floor
of a plush hotel, an unmarried middle aged lady executive,
showing a lottery ticket, told her secretary 
that she won five hundred dollars. She wasn’t happy.

Inside the cold storage...

Generally dreads the kitchen:
The incalculable losses it occasions one’s image.
Often with fried, oily chicken:
A company that doesn’t anything damage!
For all early morning jogs promptly ready!
Its healthy rejuvenation of a woman’s waist!
Has resolved not to be...

Recently, I awoke 
from a very specific dream--
In which I expressed 
my getting-a-B.A. scheme

A long-time ambition 
I've put on the back-burner
Delayed because I'm not 
much of a wage-earner

It'd be easier to succeed 
with a B.A....

Never really quite understood,
so mind boggling it's just no good,
Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity.

E=mc2 he defined as Energy
equals Mass times twice Velocity -
but what's that to a poor wage earner like me?

Armstrong got to the...

that frigidly cold new year
I was the sole bread earner
with a seriously sick husband
watery soup was all for dinner  

it was time for Easter
and spring break at school
my just-turned-teenager wanted to help
some extra bucks,...

Wiser we fall
the better we crawl
on all fours
back to the doggie style
of being humped over casually
Left like an Indian burial
Far away from the tribe
with pastel reds and nature green
My war paint is melting
Under Thunder lightning...

A consistently poor wage
Licenses rage:
An ugly fight against the cage,
Steady enveloping of stagnant wage,
A temper warning every wedge,
Rising while lowered with vintage.

Hirers open a sterile page,
Not a complimenting line for a sage:
Reflections of his usage,
Not...

Helpless puppet
Dancing on a string
Make me dance
Make me sing

I must bow deeply
So I can eat
Yes sir, okay!
May I clean your feet?

You pass your exams
You earn your degree
I’m your favorite flunky!
Pass judgement on me!

The employee consultation

Limitless cries 
of a weary 
heart
Twisted in 
weaves of 
hairy past
The painful 
groans of an 
open gum
Unleashed by 
clones of 
frostbites
Terrifying 
rhythm of the 
night's owl
Matching 
towards 
knights so 
fearful
The naked 
shivers of the

One may wish to own a JW Turner

Spare me celebrity status,
If it means selling things I don't like,
And will never use, or buy,
To help the company and me make mega bucks.

Spare me celebrity status,
Of thinking my opinion on other than my main...
