I Can Clean, I Can Drive

Plenty of sleep, no more tv, the wars in the Middle East
are resource wars, disguised as religious debates.
So Dad would say.

A beautiful winter day, hunting
season. A Gun In Every Home, in light of U.S. mass...

Resilience

Thank you dear Lynda McCarthy for your love, understanding, passion and guidance

They are whispering now, yes I hear people talk,
‘Think she’s got mental problems?’ Is all that I’ve got. 
You better believe I’m as sane...

The 50's

There was a time when I was young
To share an era that begun
From music to the fashion trend
TV shows and history
Fads and other mysteries
I saw them all as time moved on

my biggest fear 

The pain is...

Reformed Patriotism: Defining America

America is an idea
that "all men are created equal,"
before we cared to define "human", "created", or "equal."
America is freedom for our grandchildren
in a manner we will never understand.

It is the founding fathers who died for...

Progress

Progress
by Michael R. Burch

There is no sense of urgency
at the local Burger King.

Birds and squirrels squabble outside
for the last scraps of autumn:
remnants of buns,
goopy pulps of dill pickles,
mucousy lettuce,
sesame seeds.

Inside, the workers all move
with the...

The Fifties Were Really and Truly Not All That Square

The Fifties were really and truly not all that square
Though that dullard Dwight D. sat in the Executive Chair
And his frumpy wife Mamie had really bad hair
Matching those dowdy, plain dresses she'd wear ...

While husbands...

His voice was loved,his colour not
Only the former him fame brought
Summa cum laude in study and sport
His origins drew him up socially short
Jim Crow laws were the sinister wedge
Which left him at his country's edge

Time For Change

I believe there are still honest politicians
Who try to do their best for our country,
While others, out of grandiose ambitions
Couldn’t give a fig, to put it rather bluntly.
Some fashion laws to benefit constituents,
Others pad their...

Instruments

an instrument can be defined
as a device that produces musical sound
or it may be a tool for making things

The Sounds of Radio

I 'spose I'm revealing my age but how I hanker once in awhile,
To return to days of yore and spin ye old Crosley radio dial!
To our delicate ears, those shows were considered wholesome,
Unlike some television...

Sundays On the Farm

For Sunday School and Church, Mom would roust us out of bed,

Political Futility

No more new year resolutions,
 no more lie on government restitution,
 no republic can survive its dilution
 no more pandemic blues,

 no more revenue that's due,

Stand up

A New Start For America

Out with infighting and lack of general respect,
Let’s restore our Congressional reputation
Rank partisanship and grandstanding
While padding their own coffers, I expect!

How a Perfunctory Poet Punctuates a Piece

A period here. a question mark there?
A handful of commas,,,tossed in the air
To fall all willy-nilly but he doesn't care.
Then he closes his eyes so he never sees,
And does it again with apostrophe's.

Next colons: and...

We Can'T Work It Out

Everytime I bring up the subject

We get caught in the loop

perpetually

It is as if we are frozen in this amber forever

time and time again

How obnoxious is Meghan Markle?
The one who married Royalty, with a
ring that makes a whole room sparkle?

Turns down flowers from her Caucasian
father? 
Then makes a video insulting her mother-in-
