Women Inventors-Creators of History

Women Inventors/Creators Of History

        In Honor of the following great women inventors and creators:

(*Vera Rubin, Cecilia Payne,  Chien Shiung Wu, Nette Stevens, Ida Tacke, Esther Lederberg, Lise Meitner, Henrietta Leavitt, Joyce Bell Burnell, and Rosalind Franklin)

Lost in oblivion, tossed into the abyss
Sisters of creation missed their mark
Stripped from the pages of history
Removed, dismissed, buried in the underground, in decay, lost identities 
These ten, not even remembered as a myth
Gone without a kiss of recognition
The wave of time waves good-bye to these fine women 
Denied their recognition and place in time by men
Oppressed and overlooked 
Vast and noble discoveries
Contributions to the human condition
Created by their genius minds
Now covered by the abyss of ignorance
Cheated, removed from the book of time
Their names should be memorized by children
But they reside in the trash bin of history
A catastrophe on a monumental scale
Advancements claimed by others
Who deserves this mistreatment?.... Not men…
Smart women in this world remain unclaimed
Lost like luggage on the brutal side of life’s airplane
Crashed with no survivors
And how disturbing to be deprived of such monumental findings
Their works turned over to incompetence in vile form
Discoveries in the sciences and nature simply blind sided
Where is their truth?  Where is their justice? 
Men, culture, ego and shear ignorance, persists, prevails
And who permits such atrocities as this but us
We wage war against these geniuses
In our silence is our shame 
Removed from the pages from history are their names and fame
Blame humanity as we forget these ladies
Denied the truth and beauty of their contributions 
Their names are not remembered
We can honor them here and now 
By not hiding them on shelves
Teach the children.  Educate them and ourselves
There is nothing like discovery
There is nothing quite like the truth

Premium Member Vampire Visits the Dentist

Dracula had the most terrible toothache,
so he booked to see his dentist Mr Payne.
An evening appointment was requested;
as Dracula only rose after the sun had set

When Dracula walked through the door
a blast of garlic breath hit him in the face;
Dracula bit his lip as he had a huge fit
Mr Payne had forgotten his patient’s allergy!

The dentist put on his surgical mask,
whilst he removed Dracula’s rotten fangs;
Sadly for Dracula, he can no longer bite necks,
now he’s being treated for severe anaemia!

Premium Member Babble On

I shave every morning after making love to my wife at night;
My beard now drags across the floor.
If I had a nickel for every time that I was right,
The next time I am right I’ll have one cent more than four.

I am so tired I feel beat like a rented mule;
Seven days a week I must go to work.
Scratch my back with a chain saw and call me a fool;
For dropping out of college, I am such a jerk.

“Who licked the red off your apple”, is what she asks of me;
My mood is always kind of sour;
Civility lies buried in the grave with chivalry;
My days need another twenty hours.

I’d eat a one ton tomato, are the words I thought they sang
In that song from many years ago;
If the world really did begin with a cosmic blast big bang
Then Genesis is fiction, don’t you know.

If I had common sense it would be the pamphlet by Thomas Payne;
Though the pages would not be too well worn.
In a world all gone mad, normalcy makes you insane;
The civil contract, politicians have all torn.

If you had seen what I saw, you would saw the table in half
And crawl out the whole that the two halves now make;
If two wrongs make a right then I would be the one with the last laugh
As my life is but a series of mistakes.

Premium Member Runaway S

A runaway S,   hissed on and on,
like    the Orient Express.

SSS

Thought   keyboard had gone off the rails
or   Howard Payne threatened a slow down.

            SSSSSS

Grand discovery…kept my cool.
   The letter was stuck. It hissed

SSSSSSSS

I backed up. It continued to trek
on open windows, back and forth,

                     SSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

weaving in and out. Had to stop!
To run for help would have been

SSSSS

catastrophic…so what to do…what to do
…keep my cool. Put the train in reverse

SSSSSSSSSS

pulled up the key.   Apparently
maintenance is needed   but 

S..backspace..SSSS…backspace

at least my words are not passengers
…not one was lost…the body’s intact.

Premium Member Can You Imagine

“Ô, Wanderess, Wanderess
When did you feel your
most euphoric kiss?
Was I the source
of your greatest bliss?”
- Roman Payne 

Can you imagine being young again -
going back where your longings first began
when feelings – bright tulips – sprang inside you?
Springtime yearnings blossomed; they grew and grew.

Can you imagine being young and free
and getting past (at last) timidity?
While quivering with sweet desire’s delight,
first love you tasted deep into the night.

Can you imagine going to that place
which years of living manage to erase.
Could you return and once again make real
the vividness of what you used to feel?

Can you imagine love fresh and sublime?
I try to bring it back to life with rhyme.
But even when I write of it, I know . . .
bright tulips of my youth will not regrow.

Premium Member What Would Our Forefathers Say

Some rights or your life?
The question's put to us all
What would be your choice?

We need to profile
Trading some rights for safety
Small inconvenience

To locate the nests
Of these cockroaches and to
Exterminate them

Arguing over
Our Constitutional rights
Is a waste of time

If our Forefathers
Could see us now, they would say,
"Destroy them all!"

Then we will have time
To live, to talk, to argue
To enjoy our rights

They fought for freedom
They gave us our civil rights
We can't let them down!

So called "intellects"
Who have over analyzed
The Constitution

Have caused us to doubt
What should be plain common sense
Thomas Payne would cry...

George Washington would
Be dismayed at how slow our
Nation was to act

Thomas Jefferson
And Benjamin Franklin would
Frown and shake their heads

But ghosts from the past
Can't lead us into battle
Can't save our future...

Premium Member If Youse Guys

If Youse Guys

If youse guys knock on my door,
I ain’t gonna answer it, no freaking way, man!
Youse could be Perry Smith and Dick Hickock standing there,
Holding a flashlight, a fishing knife, and a shotgun, 
Thinking there’s a safe in the house somewheres.
I know youse guys think I’m loaded,
And that youse would kill me for ma’ money.
Not tonight Misters Perry and Dick!
I got two bus tickets to Barstow, and then 
Into the American desert youse will walk,
with hitching, trembling thumbs stuck way out!
And if youse guys come driving up and offer me a ride,
I ain’t gonna get in, no freaking way, man!
Youse could be Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy in there,
Gripping a lug wrench and a rubber tourniquet,
Thinking I’m jus’ a soft target for your Polaroid camera.
Not today Misters Bundy and Gacy!
I gotta a tan V Dub, all gassed up for the long haul to Tacoma,
And then, into the American nightmare we will all go.
But if youse guys try to sell me a bill of goods,
I ain’t gonna buy it, no freaking way, man!
Youse could be Vincenzo Peruggia, and Doris Payne sitting there,
Holding a bag made of sackcloth, and a hoodie,
Scheming to rid my bank account with a smile and a lie.
Not today Messers Vincenzo and Payne!
I gotta fast plane to catch to Monte Carlo and Paris,
And I ain’t taking my diamonds or my Mona Lisa!
Sleep easy youse guys.
I ain’t gonna say nothing nice ‘bout any of youse.
All youse were just bad folk.
Glad youse is gone.
