Long Public opinion Poems

I OPENED A DOOR IN THE UNIVERSE 
ONLY TO FIND MYSELF 
FLOATING IN A SPHERE. 

A FAINT REDISH COLORED LIGHT

MY WAY AROUND.

distracting distraction distracted

A kangaroo in dungarees hops hopefully 
	To win first prize in the Favs contest hot
		On the heels of an enlightening glow worm

Surely life is no competition but the stage lights
	Reverberates all the promising contenders

It amazes me that she came to mind after some 50 years.
She lived far back across the fields, alone with not a care.

On Independence Day
I declare  independence 
from American imperialism.
I declare U.S. out of Iraq.
And while I am at it
the C.I.A. out of the business
of supplying murderous thugs
with rifles and uniforms 
along with the strategies 
to...

That none raised a claim against him, even in jest,
And reports on his environmental conduct all agree
That he never injured a sprouting tree,
And that all he did was to...

Nor are they thin, eating only greens and leaves and vitamins
Or exercising on the side of reasons muscularity
All this takes time to digest of course

Opinionated- And It’s Eyes---


I awoke and flung my mind soul in the heaven
What could there be more purely seven?
'It's that lordship,' I muttered;

In Jesus nails I doubt but
it doesn't make me less faithful
therefore
for a gram of material glory
I'm swapping

because of...

And i live a life of endless scorn
If my loved ones choose to leave

If poverty reclaims my pockets
And i shed tears to fill a bucket

than the raging radio talk heard — 
Kindling of conspiracy flames
With howling winds of thermonuclear quickness,

Convenience, His Son, at His right hand sitting,
and whatever...

Is there passion alight in your breast;
The call of some unknown muse?
Or does...
