The Eagle Survives

In this tumultuous political climate
I find both parties irrelevant and obsolete

They do not speak to me or my families’ needs
Neither do they consider our suffering 

Day after day immigrants look for respite from expulsion from...

To Tell the Truth

The truth has experienced a hard time these days
With alternative facts, distorted reality twittering in viscous ways
You would expect down right good sense to somehow prevail 
As common sense is no longer common and seems...

Quiet Girl

Silence is my native tongue, when I open my mouth
My true and unclear colors come out.
One may see me differently, but I know I’m still the same.
I have many countless layers yet, shysters still don’t...

The End Is Near

One day the sun will rise only so far,
the earth will rotate but only slowly,
the elephants, whales, and jungle cats
will call out to each other,
rats and snakes will
dive deeper into their skins
as clueless as ever.

It...

A New Start For America

Out with infighting and lack of general respect,
Let’s restore our Congressional reputation
Rank partisanship and grandstanding
While padding their own coffers, I expect!

Let’s rid ourselves of all the current trolls
“Let’s throw the bums out,” it has been...

No Tickee, No Washee

No tickee, no washee
You pay as you go
There are no free rides
As everyone knows
Yet some people try
Their gol' darn best
To beat the system
Get ahead of the rest

Like everyone else
They must play by the rules
Do they...

American citizens, no matter what their occupation,
would love to go overseas for a vacation.
For all those people who have never been out of the country,

Planned Obsolescence

You must have heard of “planned obsolescence”
But manufacturers say it ain't so
A devious mind surely thought this one up
Must be absolutely rolling in dough!

An automobile could be made to last forever
If these guys would play...

Bully others cause by masters strength and poses.
Fall your faces and first to grounds because dirt may good.
Filthy men have nothing pretty only there may be forces and might confer or hired from masters.

Door Opens

Door opens

And the door shall be opened,
At humanitys fall,
And the thief and the beggar, hoping ,
That the share is for all,

The evil and bad, will shamefaced be,
When the great judgement comes ,
Comes by air, land,...

Joys

21 Aug 2017 - Sonnet

When all the joys you ever chased in life
were bait that NEVER came without a hook -
high-market hucksters charming you with fifes
that drove thirst mad (and all done by the book),

Political Scatology

Thankfully, the mid-term elections have come and went.
Thankfully, we'll suffer no more TV ads related to that event.

Thankfully, we'll not receive any more phone calls from politicians.
Thankfully, we'll receive no more mailers outlining their positions.

Thankfully,...

Outlaws

The best artists are outlaws
Vandalizing our sanctity,
Our sanctimonious freight trains,
Our parsimonious neglect.

The best artists are culprits
Chiseling our school desks,
Scraping our bathroom stalls,
Doodling our notebooks.

Graffiti spray paints the struggle,
Scribbling defaces the pretense,
Defilement arrests the complacent,
Disfigurement sullies...

Christmas Is No Picnic

Christmas in the desert is different you see.
If there is a sandstorm, the camel rolls into a C.
The presents get buried and may never be found.
A desert Christmas is probably not the best around.

The Facts of Pacts

There was a time my daddy said
When a man’s word was his bond.
A firm handshake sealed the contract,
No one was ever conned.

When railroads brought in lesser men
Than those who won the west,
Those shysters made some...

Perspective

If mosquitoes ate fat
instead of blood
there would be rows
of overweight people
laying out at night
like beached whales
coated in oily attractants
hoping they present
a savoury snack
soon salons would offer 
overnight specials
"Lose While You Sleep"
shysters would schill
packets of special...
