shared values

without untimely degenerative treasons
to reason
Healers of motherland
and Her EarthTribes.
My favorite teachers

The Evil Eye
The darkness, now descending, floods the city as it dies
while shadows lurk in legions 'neath the looming Evil Eye.
Its frozen stare envelops all, it penetrates and pries,
denouncing loathed dissenters to the keepers in the sky....

Jurisprudence
Across the cracked concrete slabs,
past a fallen dogwoods left lying like so much litter;
at the red brick base of the courthouse, the jurors strode.
Through the doors too heavy for a mere woman to open unassisted;

I blink my eyes and then the world is gone.
Open once again to see some peons upon the lawn.
They came to hear the Lion yawn and swipe a wife by dawn.
That's why I keep...

New Age Chemical Warfare
Memory, oh sweet memory,
Lost in dizziness, but found.
Excite my brain to joyfulness.
Pain is sometimes lethal.
Memory loss is just one warning sign of this war.
Add to that: headaches, depression, oh, the mental pain.
Numbness, insomnia, heart...

Getting Much More Difficult
By Franklin Price

It's getting much more difficult
When looking back to see
Just what our founding fathers
Meant for this changing place to be
They did not plan for royalty
Washington refused the crown
Now the attitudes upon...

Seven Dwarfs
~Seven Dwarfs~ (limerick sequence)*
There once was a dwarf named Doc,
Who saw patients around the clock.
He hadn’t gone to medical school,
Yet his patients he could easily fool,
For his meds were always chalk.
There once was a...

After Shocks - Revised
It's after the 'landslide?' Thieves stole the election!

For the dark side of Trump's just black art on display!

Only fools write poetry,
someone famous said,
but it's better than sitting aimlessly
or taking to my bed.
I'll find the quote in Bartlett's
and stow the fact away,
more useless information
that I'll never get to say.
'Cause when I spout my...

By sitting on a speedy bicycle?
Difficult? Sympathy is like sizzle
Shouts when not got in coddle;
Smiles if given in time subtle.
Shrewd! With poor does giggle
With rich it does struggle.

The Process Or Kafka's Dream Part 3 (Revised)
Could anyone think this uneducated?
and undereducated mass of unemployed
or underemployed, aged humanity,
should, could or would,

than place...
