Premium Member No Toilets In the Sky - 2021 Version

[To the tune of Ghost Riders In The Sky (loosely)]
                                *

Heaven’s almost everywhere but mainly upon high
Santa Claus delivers there cos he’s that kind of guy
The lack of any lavatory almost made him cry
He tried to keep his legs crossed but he dribbled from the sky

              He needs to go
              He needs to pray
              No toilets in the sky

The holy choir tinkles as they travel on their way
Sprinkling golden showers ’cross the moonlit sky today
They have no private place to pee which fills them with dismay
For there’s no public toilets... in the Milky Way

Gabriel is struggling cos he’s been out on the beer
His guts are throwing tantrums and he tries to plug his rear
He knows he’s gonna poop his pants that fact is fairly clear
For there’s no public toilets... in the upper atmosphere

                He needs to go
                He needs to pray
                No toilets in the sky

Saint Peter has some turbulence and says a little prayer
He needs to poop and piddle but there’s nowhere private there
He’s sure he gonna throw up and become a vomit sprayer
For there’s no public toilets... in the ozone layer

Satan’s uncle pooped himself, how will he show his face
Public humiliation, he’s in permanent disgrace
He couldn’t hold it in although he found no private place
For there’s no public toilets... on the edge of space

                He needs to go
                He needs to pray
                No toilets in the sky

Grim, the reaper belched and burped, his tummy grumbled loud
His fart was wet but silent, he was glad because he’s proud
Grim is really trying not to throw up over crowds
For there’s no public toilets... high above the clouds

The angel doubled up and squirted out a putrid spray
Santa Claus got splattered as the reindeer pulled away
All kinds of hell will rain upon a Yuletide Earth this year
For there’s no public toilets... in the stratosphere

                  He needs to go
                  He needs to pray
                  No toilets in the sky

Overpopulation

I sat with a friend,
discussing overpopulation,
"the worlds not overpopulated"
he stated

"Look around you,
there is still, a lot more land,
there are still places, 
with very few people"

Granted that's true,
there are still places with few people
yet the fish have become 
depleted from the sea

We cut down fifty eight football fields
of raintree forest, every day,
the seas are depleted,
because people need to eat,

We cut down the rain forest
because people need furniture,
there are only three hundred 
Siberian tigers left in the world,

Other animals have a right to life
three, tiger species became extinct
in the twentieth century,
the ozone layer is becoming depleted

because of the carbon
that we, as a race create.
granted cows have more stomachs
cows give off more methane gas,

Yet we are by far 
are the biggest creator of carbon pollution,
cars, cigarettes and human gas,
go into creating air pollution,

four and a half new babies 
are born every second,
yes people have a right 
to have a family,

Yet what do you want, 
their future to hold,
We depend on nature 
but now, nature also depends on us,

The north and south pole
are melting,
fresh water going into the ocean,
could change the chemical balance

Of the sea,
perhaps stopping the Mediterranean rift,
perhaps changing heat transfer,
perhaps changing nature,

we depend on this planet
for our survival,
yet this planet also 
depends on us,

We have a brain,
We have the ability,
to overcome these problems, 
Together we can achieve the impossible,

United we stand divided we fall
yet if we work against each other 
we achieve nothing, using investment, 
we can overcome our problems,

We can make cars that run on electricity,
We can decide, to have less children,
Together we can do the impossible,
We have already sent people into space

Yet if we spend our time fighting,
against each idea, we get nowhere,
To overcome a problem 
first you must agree you have a problem

Then create a solution, that solves the problem,
Increasing tax and destroying lives does not work
investing together creating change is a solution,
We are the most intelligent animal on the planet

You Can Do Anything

I'm sixty years old 
tomorrow is not Guaranteed
if I live for another twenty 
or thirty years I'd be doing well

In thirty years 
when I die 
the world will not 
matter to Me '

I'll be gone 
no more wages
no need for food
I meet my maker 

and stand proud
saying I tried to stop wars
I tried to save your planet
I tried to help people

I'll not be ashamed
I'll have self-respect
but the people of the world 
will still be here

your children 
their children
the children of their children
will still be here

Do you as a world 
want to continue 
teaching them to fight
Do you as a world 

Want to continue 
polluting your planet
destroying your food resources
destroying plants and animals

we depend on honeybee's
to pollinate plants
destroy the bees
and you destroy your food resources

as we pump carbon 
into the atmosphere
heat increases
floods increase 

Heat, on the ocean
creates more steam
more steam creates more clouds 
more clouds create more rain

flood in one country 
fires in another 
If you put a pot fat on the range
turn on the element
 
The solid in the pot turn's 
into a liquid
perhaps increasing the heat 
by destroying the ozone layer

could soften the land 
and be responsible for 
increasing earthquakes 
and the tsunami

Granted that might be stretching
the truth we have tectonic plates    
The Earths floating crusts will always move
Tectonic Plates moving against each other

Cause Earthquakes
somethings we can change
somethings we have to accept
as part of nature

But we can change the type 
of machines we use
we can build factories 
that run on electric power

It does not matter which country
creates pollution 
the pollution goes
into everyone's atmosphere

We have one world
we are all apart of the one world
check out DNA we are all human
not aliens we are all related

We have one planet
fight bicker and destroy that planet
and your children will have no future
stand together in a war against climate change

Then perhaps you can build a better future
you can create the happiness 
you can build Disney lands all over the world
invest together and you can do anything

Premium Member No Toilets In The Sky - 2025 - slightly gross

Santa’s doing Tinkles as he travels on his way
Sprinkling golden showers ’cross the moonlit sky today
He has no private place to pee which fills him with dismay
For there’s no public toilets... in the Milky Way

Santa’s got his legs crossed cos he’s been out on the beer
His guts are throwing tantrums and he wishes home was near
He knows he’s gonna poop his pants that fact is fairly clear
For there’s no public toilets... in the upper atmosphere

He needs to go
He needs to pray
No toilets in… the sky

Santa hits some turbulence and says a little prayer
He needs to poop and piddle but there’s nowhere private there
He’s sure he’s gonna throw up and become a vomit sprayer
For there’s no public toilets... in the ozone layer

Santa’s gonna poop himself, how will he show his face
Public humiliation, and permanent disgrace
He can’t hold on much longer, though he needs a private place
For there’s no public toilets... on the edge of space

He needs to go
He needs to pray
No toilets in… the sky

Santa belched and burped and then his tummy grumbled loud
His fart was wet but silent, he was glad because he’s proud
Santa’s really trying not to throw up over crowds
For there’s no public toilets... high above the clouds

Santa can’t believe his butt just played a squeaky tune
He’s been holding it in but now his gut’s a gas balloon
There’s gonna be an awful mess if he don’t get home soon
For there’s no public toilets… far beyond the moon

He needs to go
He needs to pray
No toilets in… the sky

Santa’s doubled up, good job the reindeer know the way
He’s squirting out of every orifice a putrid spray
All kinds of hell are raining down on Earth this Christmas Day
For there’s no public toilets... in the Milky Way

Down on Earth a seagull pooped upon a lady’s head
“They say it’s meant to bring good luck,” her boyfriend almost said
But what came down upon him from above had killed him DEAD
Santa cried, “I’M SORRY SON… WHY WEREN’T YOU HOME IN BED?”

He needs to go
He needs to pray
No toilets in… the sky
No toilets in…the sky
No… toilets… in…… the sky

“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts”. Rachel Carson 


Mother Earth! In love and awe, we salute you!
Though you are just a speck in this vast universe
There is no other planet to match you in grace
Explorations to outer space have been there since long
But so far, no habitat like yours is found anywhere.

Dear Earth, we see you and call you as our Home.
You have birthed and nurtured countless generations.
You are decked in sprawling vistas, prairies and gardens.
Dressed in green, you soothe our eyes and ease our pain.
In you, there are running brooks and quiet creeks,
Snow-capped mountains with jagged peaks,
Sleeping valleys and towering hillocks,
Sunny beaches, dense woods, canyons and plains. 

Wherever we gaze, whatever places we tread
We see a world of beauty and wonder with mysterious live forms
Oceans girdling you are home to numerous marine creatures
Deep in the forest’s shady realm, beasts roam and birds’ twitter
Fawns play, rabbits hop and squirrels dart up and down the trees.

If we roam through the landscape, glimmering with dew,
Listen to the brooklet's susurrus murmur,
Watch the starry eyed flowers with bees humming around,
Our ailing hearts will be soothed and stimulated.
If we contemplate on the beauty of the earth,
We will surely find great reserve of strength to last a life time. 

Though Mother Earth provides everything we need
In us is a tendency to exploit and drain her, 
Polluting and disrobing her, leaving her so vulnerable,
With carbon emissions and toxic chemicals, 
Creating holes in her protective ozone layer.
Thoroughly deprived of clean air and crystalline waters,
She is left sterile, barren and ugly, so unlivable.

Oh, Mother Earth,
Benevolent thou art, still ever malevolent men,
We assault you and we maim and mar,
We suck the life sap – we leave you dry,
We ooze out the blood and cast you dead.

Oh! Pardon us!! ‘Spare your rod’
Lash not – we fall at your feet!

Perhaps

If you look out into space, 
pictures on the internet 
taken from the Hubble telescope
you can see a nebula

a great big cloud of gas and dust
the birthplace of new baby suns
most of the gas is hydrogen
the gas that makes the ozone layer

hydrogen links together to build ozone,
so hydrogen is attracted to hydrogen,
yet I wonder is there a small attraction left over
after the atom's link, is there a small slight attraction

Is this slight attraction, the force that we call gravity
atoms are attracted to atoms,
oxygen links with hydrogen to form water 
perhaps, matter attracted to matter

When suns that are born 
they start out composed of mainly Hydrogen gas and dust
then having exploded into an atomic reaction
because of the growing force of gravity

they start changing overtime 
condensing slowly changing from hydrogen 
they turn into helium the next atom 
in the periodic table

as time goes by they slowly work through 
the periodic table until if they are big enough 
they turn into a lead, then they explode 
going supernova, creating dust that goes on 

to make planets, meteorites and the earth
our moon came from a collision with the earth
our moon was once apart of the earth
and broke away after the collision to become a satellite

The core of the earth is hot, perhaps because gravity, 
matter attracted to matter
the force of compounding atoms, creates an atomic reaction 
the outside shell is created because

The coldness of space cools the atoms down
creating a shell a crust around the out side of the earth
the perfect nest for nurturing life
Hydrogen appears to be the foundation of existence

I'm not sure where hydrogen comes from
perhaps the big bang theory is true
but with that much gravity 
the matter would be pure energy so no boulders

just an explosion of pure energy 
that cools down and starts forming atoms 
on becoming the smallest atom hydrogen 
would go on to form nebula clouds, suns and planets

Mother Earth

And now a massive hole in the ozone layer
Global warming, not really mentioned before
Like all the wild life and all of the agriculture
Fossil fuels were burning, destroying the core

Rain forests now fast becoming waste lands
Polluting the atmosphere with our toxic waste
And to think all of this done at our own hands
Before long there won't be any human race

Change's in the weather, changes in altitudes
And this only contributes to famine and disease
If we're so clever why not change our attitudes?
Perhaps were blind to it all, no one then see's

That the situation is only going to perpetuate
We are warned by mother earth, mother nature
We will one day pay for the damage we create
Is it worth doing something now? rather than later





note  ................
AGAIN A BIT MORE OF A POLITICAL AND UNIVERSAL ISSUE A BIT LIKE THAT
OF WORLDS STATE,  A JILTED BENERATION , AND ELEMENTS OF LIFE

The Universe has Feelings too

Our inception  was  a   mystery
"A big bang theory"   Some suggested
" A Super being" above the clouds" Some lamented
we watched the creatures debate over our existence

Born in a family  of ten and raised from a distance
Watched over by our father during the day
while mum took over the night duties

Our  Sisters's jaw  dropping beauty invited the overzealous creatures 
The  genesis  of their friendship  seemed  sweet  but  turned  sour
Their insatiable hunger  for  exploration grew by the hour 
Her troubled  existence had only began

They exploited her hospitable nature and stripped off her beauty
The green gown that covered her nakedness, stripped in the name of civilization
Her waters that sparkled, darkened by the juice extracted for their automobile's
Fumes from their industrial machines aiming at her blue and white veils, destroying the fragrance of her ozone layer..

We watched with pain and in silence
We had no mode of mobility to render a helping hand  
Father’s anger started growing by day as he watched with detest
For a number of days he gave warning shots 
The creatures experienced his anger so hot
But the warning fell short of their egocentric ego's 
"Lets just call it "global warming" and pretend we are doing something towards it" they connived 

Defiling my sister did not quench their thirst of exploration
They sent two men with wits to visit my mother
Trying to find out the secrets to her shinning face
As soon as they landed, they pierced her body with flags of achievement
It now became a race of who will defile her the most

As days pass we wonder who will be the next victim
Rumours have it they are eyeing one of our sister 
Her genetic makeup is almost similar to sister's 

I am afraid, these tears will never dry
These fears  will forever be high 
Our helping hand will remain shy
For we can only watch, as the cycle continues

Go ahead, try to separate the races.
You politicians have egg, on your malicious faces.

Not realizing in your frozen hearts.
You toss imperfect, very hopeless darts.

Neither money nor educatiion
Can separate friends of the American nation.

Equity for Blacks only, you shout from your parapets.
ThatWill never separate us, not one bit.

So you fund hate groups to form derision,
Amongst hearts who have made, no such decision.

You paint whites as Nazis, blacks as slaves?
You think we are animals or morons, you hopeless knaves!

We have friends of all colors and religions.
But you go on fake news, as dense as pigeons.

You do all in your power to make this beautiful world dour.
You shout, “The world is ending by the hour?”

Filling us with fear, like climate change,
The ozone layer went up one percent, but not to Al Gore and his gang.

Whites mucking about, pretending they are Black?
It sickens me, Caucasians,it’s a racial attack.

Equity, as if, this were even ever possible.
We of all colors, think you are miserable.

So twenty years ago, I found a Black sister online.
Living in the hood, with loving  heart that really shines!

She’s problems with sleep, as bullets fly about all night.
Seven hundred and thirty five, died in that city alone last year, what a fright!

DC bigwigs  avoid the Hood like the Plague.
Yet demand Democrats vote for Blacks alone, don’t dare turn the page.

They tell them freedom is food stamps and a free phone?
It is such a lie, it makes me gasp and groan.,

Keeping  the Blacks forever, on othe Plantation Nation!
You, while they are killed in the Hood, fly to Davos on vacation.


             Dedicated to my Sistah of another mother!
             Like you, Blessed Rita , there is no other!


            With love,
            Sistah Pangie
