Long Insurrectionists Poems

Today is assiduously
religiously different,
as I review our local RiverEast News.

Every week
Mike Thompson writes a solid Editorial
in a compelling voice.
I expect to only add
my hearty sacred
happy secular "Amen!"

Our nearly fearless Editor and Chief
calls for political "ACCOUNTABILITY!"
like...

Lest we forget that back in 2017 at a softball game,
they tried to massacre members of the republican congress.
Then between 2016 -2020 they impeached trump twice
for nonexistent and/or trumped-up charges.
During the fentanyl Floyd riots
they attempted...

He says he saw "(this nation's)
Identity sold and robbed by immigration..."
And I remember
My first day teaching at the border school
First one there that August morning
Cows were grazing on the lawn
I walked into the office to...

UNDER THE FATHER LAND
 We serve under the father land
 In huminity we render 
 Selfless services in cosmopolitanism 
 In peace-less and troubless downtown   
 We inhabit as national stuccoers

This day will be remembered in infamy,
When insurrectionists brought horror and shame.
While they attacked our foundation of democracy,
Looking for the innocent & other ghosts to blame.

A common viewpoint of this event was disbelieving,
Such that, how...

The faith in our Democracy
Was almost lost most shamefully,
When losers made their foolish claims
And railed against imagined blames.

The lap dog trogs obeyed the call
To challenge what was clear to all;
That voters cast their ballots free
And...

I find it hard to believe the sun is setting
That the noble experiment is in fatal decline,
Just because so many people are forgetting
Descending into what I’d call a piteous whine.

That the noble experiment is in...

Four years ago on this very day
the Democrats and their proxy media stooges
cried “the election was stolen!”
and “we need to impeach Trump!”

Today the same apparatchiks 
and oligarchs and media fawned and gushed
over a corrupt senile...

The other night I dreamed of spiraling downward,
But the earth delayed rising up to receive me.
I watched my unending fall into masses of despair
Falling rapidly, I found that I could not flee;
I could only hope...

I am sorry I can no longer respect your hue
Since you have succumbed to Q-Anon
Parroting most stupid conspiracy theories
Since the Trump train you jumped on
And adopted a jaundiced view of our history
Believing The Donald's outrageous...

The insurrectionists of January 6 are NOT patriots!
They are criminals of the lowest amoeba-types
Most patriots were at work improving the G.N.P.
Not carousing and malingering to air their gripes.

Can you imagine an American president colluding,
Encouraging rabble-rousers...

Let freedom ring across the land
For truth and justice take our stand
Let the traitorous insurrectionists see
We stand for true American democracy.

Let our Grand Ol' Flag always wave
Above the home of the free and the brave
For...

The guard at the door said,
“I don’t agree with you, but I respect you,”
As he let the insurrectionists in.

To those who were at work inside?
Did he respect the taking...

Do not debauch the banner--red, white, and blue,
By waving it above traitorous insurrectionists’ yell.
Old Glory was “so gallantly streaming” in 1812,
It has stood the tests of time tried and true
From Iwo Jima, the Japanese sulfur...

Today... 
I watched in horror as insurrectionists, 
          [hooligans and terrorists] 
          stormed our nation's capital.
