I look around and frown
to see eighty-plus-year-old clowns
stuttering and stumbling around
the corridors of power...
From Slow-Joe Biden to Unelectable Mahmoud Abbas*
from Black-out Mitch McConnell to Fragile Francis, the Pope
They all refuse to step down
to give youthful leaders hope...
Corporations keep the young blood flowing
their ideas and vigor keep the profits growing
But the world's nations prize creeping senility
over youthful ability

*Mahmoud Abbas, 88 years old, has been the
President of the Palestinian National Authority
since 2005. Through a series of political mach-
inations, no elections have been held for Pres-
ident since. He has also been the chairman of
the PLO since 2004.
How did RED CHINA implement its very own depopulation agenda and thereby eliminating 90% of its own population? ***
It all began with declaring a small margin of only 5% of its population to be their national enemy! And having another 5% of its population bury their dead bodies! The 5 % of the burial detail became their very next 5% of their eliminated population.
These inhuman monster activities continued until only 5% of their entire population remained! They were selected to become brain washed (brain dead) by being indoctrinated into their RED CHINESE propaganda machine!
President Joe Biden only pretends to be concerned about vaccinating his own population!
Every day multitudes of illegal unvacintatedl immigrants of are crossing our southern boarder and being admitted into the USA! Already benefits our people are being allocated for them and thus depriving our own people! RED CHINA is giving him and other progressive politicians money to destroy the USA!
Concerned citizens need to call the House of Representatives before 2 PM EST and tell them: Do not pass an infrastructure bill of trillions of dollars which will place our children into the third generations into debts they can never re pay!
They need to call (202) 224-3121 for Washington State and tell them to stop selling out our country to RED CHINA! And to secure our southern boarders or be voted out of office! They need to call other members of the House of Representatives also! And to stop rigging our elections in their favor!
They need to tell them their children belong to their parents not their school districts and the government. Who only seek to brain wash our children! And yes electric cars will only cause more pollution than gasoline ones! .
We need to act accordingly and to vote responsibly by voting all of those political traitors out of public office! We do not want Red China to complete its hostile take over of the USA! We need to humble ourselves and to pray to God for our deliverance from all evil especially RED CHINA!
Sincerely,
Roxanne Lea Dubarry

The year was nineteen sixty eight, fifty years have passed since then
When I got to Vietnam, we still were there to win
Then Chinese New Year happened, Tet Offensive was its name
The regulars and Vietcong came in force to change the game
We beat them back but was for naught, back home the people spoke
The unrest and the riots were far from any joke
The people turned against the war, and were marching to the beat
The casualties began to mount, in Vietnam and on our streets
Draft cards and our precious flag were burning every day
Soldiers being spat upon when they came home to stay
Radicals ran rampant. It wasn't looking very good.
MLK and RFK were shot down where they stood
Solidarity Day, in middle June, sought freedom, jobs and peace
Thousands marched on Washington to have discrimination cease
Was also an election year and the parties were beset
The National Guard was called out. How much worse off could we get?
Near the ending of December, Apollo eight was such a boon
It left the earth and returned again, sending three men 'round the moon
I came home in January, returning on a Freedom Jet
I look back and I ask myself, “Have we gotten better yet?”
No mere artist or poet can ever portray in oil or verse,
The grandeur of this great land and its people so diverse.
Never since The Founding Fathers set in motion its creation,
Has there been on all the earth a more grand and glorious nation!
Generations of valiant patriots from The Revolution to the present day,
Who placed national destiny above their own, now lie 'neath hallowed clay.
They sacrificed to preserve the precious freedoms God upon us did bestow.
So much, so very much to each of those courageous souls we owe!
Though they seldom get a word of thanks and work for meager pay,
'Tis the ordinary blokes who keep the gears running smoothly every day.
The farmer, the truck driver, the plumber, the postman who delivers mail;
Patriotic, hard working folks who carry their lunch in a beat-up dinner pail.
'Tis the land of opportunity where you can be all you aspire to be,
And enjoy the inalienable rights that The Constitution doth guarantee.
Among these the freedom of speech and the right to worship as you choose.
We are independent souls, yet can agree to disagree about our divergent views!
The pioneering spirit is alive and well in the people of this youthful nation.
We are renowned worldwide for our ingenuity and our innovation.
When it comes to being a generous people, we will not be outdone.
'Tis the people that make America great when all is said and done!

To honor Peter Mark Roget,
Whose birthday would have been today,
This date, each year, is set aside,
For his Thesaurus helps to guide,
Or lead, all those who opt, or choose,
To write, or pen, our thoughts or views.
My old Thesaurus, worn and frayed,
I’m sure (or certain) raised a grade
When an instructor did require
(Like every teacher who’d inspire)
Papers which, when all complete,
Did not have words that did repeat.
At minimum, or very least,
A synonym adds to the feast
Of parts of speech which we might know
To help vocabulary grow.
So thanks, Roget, for time you took;
I’m grateful for your word-filled book.
To me, it’s awesome, smashing, great,
Fantastic, glorious, first-rate,
Magnificent, divine, superb
(For adjective or noun or verb),
Amazing, super and sublime
And so much more that doesn’t rhyme!

Gusto Ko sa Mamamayan ng Ating Bansa:
Ika-8 Utos ng Dios Ama
Ang Ika-8 Utos ng Dios Ama
Ay gusto kong isaisip ng mga mamamayan ng ating bansa
Huwag magsisinungaling laban sa ating kapwa
Katotohanan ang magtatanggol sa kanila
Huwag magsisinungaling laban sa kapwa ang mga mamamayang Pilipino
Katotohanan ang pairalin sa ating mga puso
Huwag magsisinungaling laban sa kapwa sa bansa na ito
At maging saanmang dako ng mundo
Ang hindi pagsisinungaling laban sa ating kapwa
Ay ipangaral sa lahat sa pamamagitan ng salita
Salita ang kaluluwa ng mg utos Niya
Kaluluwang bibigyang-katawan ng kilos at gawa
Gawa ang magsasabuhay sa Ika-8 Utos na ito
Gawin ito nawa ng mga mamamayang Pilipino
Hindi lamang sa bansa nating ito
Kundi pati narin sa buong mundo.

1.
Rumor has it on heavens above
Among the angels’ divine sphere
That God after very much though
Decided in man’s life to interfere
2.
For He has observed Man’s mistakes
Which lately too many came to be
To endanger the whole of creation
Act with which God can never agree
3.
So the Lord has most recently chosen
The book of life before long to reprint
Revising certain of its very old chapters
While others out will leave, He has hint
4.
The concern of humans is now to know
Which chapters the book will not contain,
Which are going to be, somehow, revised
And which intact will forever remain
5.
What was heard through the vine though,
It was Man’s huge and unbearable vanity
That made our almighty Lord and creator
To finally exclude the chapter of humanity
6.
The reason our God in His infinitive wisdom
Reached such unexpected for Mankind conclusion
Is the fact that Man during his reign on earth
Has hurt our planet with his insensitive intrusion
7.
It might still be time for Man overall to be saved
If he started correcting his many mistakes soon
Beginning by respecting life and the whole planet
And stop behaving as a dim-witted buffoon.

* According to UN’s most recent report (March 2014) “We are in an era where
climate change isn’t some kind of future hypothetical,” said Chris Field, one of
the two main authors of the report, and Rajendra Pachari chair of the IPCC
(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) added: “Nobody on this planet
is going to be untouched by climate change.” For that UN suggested measures
to be taken immediately for to save the planet.
Moreover, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ( PNAS),
announced that " Researchers have found out that pollutants are strengthening storms ...plus endanger the health of people."

AFFORDED TO THOSE
WHO SHE THOUGHT WERE
MORE INTRIQUING
OR GLAMOROUS. SHE SMILED
AT HIM AND
ALMOST INVITED HIM INTO HER
LIFE. I STOOD JEALOUS
AND WISHED SHE LIKE ME
LIKETHAT, I MEAN RAW LUST.
I'D HAVE TO BEG HER AT LEAST
A MONTH TO HAVE THAT.
SHE LOOKED AT ME WITH
THE YOU DISGUST ME LOOK.
AT THAT MOMENT I KNEW WHAT
OLDER GENTLEMEN SAID OF
PROBLEMS HERE.
A LACK OF AFFORDABLITY DUE
TO THE LACK AND CONCERNS OF
PEOPLE, AND PPEOLE WHO'S
NEED MIGHT OUTWEIGH
THE CONCERNS
AND UNREPRESENTED NEED
OF MILLIONS WHO LIVE NOW
AND THE MILLIONS YET TO BE
BORN. DEVALUATION ACTS
FROM THE NATIONAL
GOVERMENT TO TAKE SOMETHING
IN EXSITANCE AND USE IT'S
WATER AND SEWER INFRACTUCTURE
AS THE BASE OF IT'S WORTHINESS.
NOT BECAUSE THOSEWHO
PAY MORE WISH
NOTTO HAVE COMPETITION FROM
SOMETHING THAT MIGHT
BE MORE BEAUTIFUL AS
WHAT THEY HAVE.
PERMANATE STRUCTURES WITH
LESS NEED FOR MAINTANCE AND
BUILT QUICK AND CHEAP.
AND AS ODD AS IT LOOKS IT'S REPECT
WILL BE DUE TO IT'S STRUTURAL DEPENDABLITY
AND BENIFETS OF IT'S DEPTHS
THAT ARE ECO FRIENDLY AND SAFE!
dUE DISTINCTION BETWEEN QUALITY AND STANDARD AND CUSTOM MEANS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DEVALUATION OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE.
Completely unrestrained, sun drenched and yummy,
Tasting of the tropics, flavors so tender,
Falling from the coconut tree to greet my tummy,
Great amounts of fiber found in each bite….
Scrumptious like the mango, cashew and cherry
And, just like these – they aren’t nuts at all,
Instead, they’re a drupe, fleshy and a little harry,
The coconut palm is the national tree of the Maldives.
Coconut trees can bring 180 coconuts per yield,
Such a delicacy should be mentioned as quite tasty,
They bring so much sweetness to those who’ve peeled,
Despite those who thought coconuts were afflicted with a curse.
Though I didn’t realize the wonders of this flavor,
Now I know what it means to use coconut oil -
Feel the marvels of this amazingly beneficial savor,
Enjoyable in so many ways I can’t even illustrate.
Coconuts are more than just nuts that fall from the tree,
They pour out wonders in oil, butter and beverages,
Lasting long enough to prove that, to some degree,
Their charms make hearts flutter with appreciation for the drupe!

The Super Snow Moon lighted our bleeding hearts,
That we’re staging the National Arts Month in February;
It reminded us to the king like the powerful wolf
Who defaced the rules of artistry
That he butted his unverified thoughts
To the heroine’s genuine and overconfident performances of art
That surpassed beyond a national badge of honor.
Aunor’s highly praised body of work inspires us
And her humble legendary origin conquers the borders
Of music, television, film and theater.
In our digital age, her extraordinary achievements
In various international film festivals crown her
As world-class actress.
Her artistic and brilliant talents exceeded the elements
Of being the National Artist,
But a thunder and lightning of judgment
Seemed like a twist from a daylight to Super Blood Wolf Moon Eclipse,
That disgraced the discretionary power of the king,
Who included undesirable factors other than artistry
And unceremoniously deleted her honor.
The resounding assertions of the noble souls
May have figuratively incarnated the national icon,
May have patriotically penned Nora Aunor’s magnificent works,
And may have glorified back the artistic contributions of a genius,
Who shall have been lionized for being...
The people’s National Artist!
