Long Righter Poems

It's peaceful here in my backyard.
The crows sound happy
with warm October sunlight.

I just read about a deadly gathering in Las Vegas.
Absence of sun-drenched peace.
Inconvenient this time of lost loss.
Death is always inconvenient,
even when invited.

A veteran,

I could be wrong,
we might become righter
with left bipolarity
now left with right tighter
co-arising dipolar.

A distinction more tangible
as bipolar left science didacticals
against Right sacred muse
teasing twittering testicles
while comparing
and contrasting
mutual deplorables

Both Andedness, bi-causal effects
YangLeft natural
with YinRight spirituals,

Back in Eighth Graded Class
of StraightWhiteMale English privilege
I learned all healthy narratives
must have at least one
of three tension intentions

Unlike sacred mythic prayer and fable 
multicultures invoking poetry 
flowing soulfully 
provoking gospel primal anthems

Of StraightWhite Man...

Open your mind
Open your heart
Look at your life
Mine was torn apart
Loving you by day
Dreaming of you by night
I have nothing to live for
Just one last fight
You slept with my best friend 
Behind my back
Creating so...

1984 or 2017 (For Contest)

I ran as far away as I could
It predicted we'd fail, that all would ...
We humans revolt against "ought" and "should."

Orwell knew better - O well, you say!
In 1948, as one...

Nice phrase, "Worldly pleasures all forsaken."
mere words from an humble writer of songs?
The Singermans sang, "I surrender all..."
to their Savior - humble Righter of wrongs.
Drawn to darkest Benin where their heart longs

I was young when I fell in love
With a blue eyed singer of songs.
I had no talents to speak of,
But she was a righter of wrongs.

As each year came I became less
In her thoughts and...

They say I’m a fighter
Who will fight to win
But is that a sin?

To fight is to win
And to win is to fight
But if it ends in pain
Was it ever right?

They say words can hurt
But still...

I thought it was left
instead it was right

Years I travel
in the wrong direction

Heeding not to maps instruction

I may not finish
should I go the other way.

I fool myself
"I got this"

Eyes shut, 
yet reflects opens definition

Blind sighted,...

Ah, Red Macaw, you are the pestilence
of impatience
in my day, soaring far, far overhead
squawking and screaming
your face overheated and red
beak too portentous
for sweets, gobbling and demanding
if ever you stop, but the leaves
have no leavening, you’re...

ENJOYING THE EMBARRASSMENT OF  RICHES
THEY SOUGHT TO SEEM ASHAMED
THEY COLLABORATED TO GAIN A 
GREATER UNDERSTANDING
TO EXPLAIN THEIR  WHAT THEY THOUGHT NEEDED

THAN WHICH IS REAL
THEY MAKE FOLY OF THESE DOINGS
AND MAKE...

My editing with ‘guess work’ is on the fly
And makes me become one sour 'baked sugar pie’

Political Correctiveness 
Republican Vs Democrat

Young man with a mind and a protestation unwinds.

Old man with bald head flying his sign .

There was almost a fight, but it was just summer heat in November.

It's spring. Cares we're flinging,
and the birds are winging;
their birdlings are singing
growing fatter!

Love doves now are cooing.
So what could be brewing?
Romance is ensuing.
That's the matter!

All the world is playing.
Some for rain are praying.
Rainfall answers, saying
Pitter-patter.

Something a politics professor once said
has been crashing round and round my head.
He said: "Zara. You could convince white
that it was black and black that it was white instead.

It's also been said that I struggle...
