Impeachment Now Moves to the Senate
By Franklin Price
12/19/2019
Impeachment now moves to the Senate
Nancy wants to come along
To control the people in it
Have them sing the House's song
Fair is fair and right is right
The Senate now presides
The House no longer has a say
Has already taken sides.
Impeachment for them said and done
In history written down
They voted Trump to ride the rail
On the first train out of town
Republicans have the Senate
Have the votes that are required
Unlike the left side Democrats
Will not tell the Trump, “You're Fired!”
Things may have turned out differently
If Democrats were smart
And when they lost the presidency
Had not taken it to heart
Had not spoken of impeachment
Before Trump's oath was even said
Had gotten the unfairness
Of the college from their head
Waited for a real High Crime
And /or a Misdemeanor too
Not starting out from nothing
To make nothing stick like glue
Whether Trump is innocent
Or whether he is not
When the Senate finds not guilty
The left will stir again the pot
Not much consideration
For the Constitution's voice
When voting in November
We the People make the choice
Seems Like the Voice of Reason
By Franklin Price
7/12/2015
Seems like the voice of reason
has upped and walked away,
left the Senate, left the House;
Politics have gone astray
Hope reason has not left forever.
Has been gone for some time
The voice that has replaced it
should be arrested. It's a crime.
Truth and reason are not in it
What's the truth? I heard you say.
Don't think you'll often hear it
in the voices heard today.
What is sincerity? I hear.
Just came down another rung.
Somehow it gets quite twisted
as it comes off of the tongue
Search well for sense of reason,
and a lot to see the truth,
and God forbid sincerity,
before you're in the voting booth.
The difficulty insurmountable,
Don't think you'll get them all
Vote the ones you think come closest
To slow down this country's fall.
AN ALLEGORICAL COCOON LESSON
(APROPOS OF POLLING)
In preparation, ants are moulding
And stacking their mounds; in hives,
Bees reflect collective oneness
In the sweetness of their unity;
And in high distant places, black
Widows meticulously spin their webs,
While honing hornets harden their nests:-
Cocooned in political and economic darkness,
Let us not be dismayed, apathetic sojourners;
Remember, while caterpillars are entombed
To be no more, their cocoon eventually opens
And out soars a liberated beautiful butterfly:-
Let us be as the butterfly, as we powerfully soar
With flapping vote-casting wings gliding us
Towards full liberation in our political sojourn.
In preparation, ants are moulding and stacking
Their mounds, while in hives, bees are reflecting
The collective oneness in the sweetness of unity;
With voting power, let us likewise reflect such
Sweetness of unity in power-based rendering:-
Voting day will soon arrive for North Carolina, Nebraska, Indiana and Idaho too.
If you live in any of these four states, this poem was written specifically for you.
Obama needs your vote and he'll be thankful if he gets it.
If you vote for him, I'll guarantee that he won't forget it.
Unlike the other candidates, he does not accept money from the lobbyists.
He knows it's wrong and that's why their contributions are what he resists.
Mister Obama is against the war.
He will not stand for it anymore.
A lot of our soldiers have been killed and their families are in a lot of pain.
If Obama becomes President, he'll bring our troops home unlike McCain.
He sympathizes with these families tears and grief.
Change will occur if he is our Commander-in-chief.
On election day America wants to hear your voice.
If you vote for Obama, he'll appreciate your choice.
Trust in America is gone, we are lost in a strange time.
Voting has gone astray, making us scratch our head, with confusion.
I ran for office and they claimed I got zero votes, but that is impossible since I voted for myself and others told me they voted for me too.
Voting should be as secure as getting on a plane, following all the same ways, making us all know we are universally going to be secure.
Trust is gone in America, we can see, we have lost our way, and pray for better days.
Trust is gone and fraud appears to grow freely, the fact seems to be obvious.
America trust went down the drain, we failed to see that many hate America and work to make us all slaves that have to pay.
I am hoping we come to terms, that some want to be here but want to live under their own rule, like the Indians live with their own everything, maybe in the future we should allow the same for all.
America I will pray for you, and hope for the best, help me pray and lift our thoughts.
Lifting prayer to God, today and always.
Leftism is tyranny,
with no respect for rights,
say a thing against them
you’ll be cancelled that night,
since free speech isn’t useful
if it goes against them,
all while claiming ‘compassion’
to confuse stupid men.
They seek to take your weapons,
cold logic to their thoughts,
knowing if you are disarmed
then all hope will be lost,
Like all dictators past
they’ve come to realize
you can’t be marched to the camps
if you can make them die.
No respect for property,
some say it don’t exist!
Since, if they own everything,
again you can’t resist.
No respect for voting,
with fraud at every turn,
defening the country
with their ballot-printer,
flooding us with aliens
to vote illegally,
bribing those same people
with our cash endlessly,
not caring that this kills
the voices of us all,
don’t want to represent
free souls that won’t play ball.
The very idea of rights
they scoff at all the time,
says they all come from the state,
an idea quite malign,
if rights come from the state
then they were never rights,
rights can’t be taken away,
if they try you have to fight.
They reject the notion
some things are beyond man,
this always leads to tyrants,
since they don’t understand
that without higher powers,
and fear of being judged,
corrupt men think they are Gods,
which leaves everyone f-cked.
You talk of neo- liberalism
And progressive politics
They say Im left of centre
Like a sort of wonky shelf
Please oh Mr Activist , the Newspeak you can keep.
What we need more of, is a lot more Common sense
Terrorists aint freedom fighters
And what the hell is Daesh
Just a bunch of Idiots
Who’s imaginary friend as sent them ape
Please oh Mr Activist , the Newspeak you can keep.
What we need more of, is a lot more Common sense
As carbon really got a foot print
And diversity not a dance group on a show
And a honest conversation
Thats not telling someone they are as ugly as their mum
Please oh Mr Activist , the Newspeak you can keep
What we need more of, is a lot more Common sense
The voters will stop listening
And turn on their television sets
And start voting for a dancing dog
On X factor instead.
for any readers abroad diversity the name of a dance group on a uk talent show .
Conservatives and Liberals
By Franklin Price

Conservatives and Liberals
Make me madder every day
Meet somewhere in the middle
You don't have to have your way
Should have consideration
For the country as a whole
Always sticking to your guns
Won't save your selfish soul
Seems to me you've not a clue
What this country's all about
Makes me want to stomp my feet
Pull my hair and cuss and shout
The way the polls are going
Seems I'm not the only one
To get rid of the establishment
Is how the voting has begun
Get rid of the do-nothings
The ones who won't agree
Hope this move won't take us down
We're just yearning to breathe free
The royalty is falling
They were never meant to be
To replace them with the same kind
Is not in the cards for me
If you're voting this election
And want to end it with a smile
Vote for independent thinkers
Who will cross the party aisle
Children’s Christmas Flight
Gold bells sounded through the snow
Calm in memory above the Christmas glow
Girls and boys lined up just after lunch
Out in the school yard to meet Santa Claus
He landed in a supersonic crunch
Softly on the deepening snow
In a stealth space ship with toys and candy
Permission slips from each child’s parents
Were collected by the tiny elves
Before they entered the ship
To fly around the world
This was no ordinary trip
Santa wanted to take them all to Mars
And out among the stars
But he remembered what time it was
The clock struck Christmas right on the dot
Being jolly, quick, and good old St. Nick
Santa laughed with a Ho Ho Ho in red and white
Told the children, “This is Christmas night.”
Visiting stars and Mars will have to wait
Santa will be working hard and late tonight
He touched his bright red cheek to speak
“Who wants to go to Disney World with me?!”
There were twenty children there
Santa counted twenty hands plus plus
Some children raised two hands, to get the voting right
You can never vote too much
Santa retired the reindeer but only for one year
They have families too, living in Alaska and Timbuktu
Their vacation time was long over due
The new sled is this super stealth flying ship
It moves faster than a lightning bolt
We’ll all have lots of fun and then return you home
Before you even know it
Santa will have to return to work
No time for playing on planets or moons
So you better go to sleep real soon
Santa’s coming with toys for you!

A tall baseball player with a bat, he knocks it clear
out of the park!
Whilst other boys sit so comfortably at their home,
he is a Varsity player, under bright lights, in the dark!
So goal-driven, a handsome senior, with his own car,
how responsible is he!
With a room full of trophies and shiny, ebullient, joy
filled, team memories.
I know all the practice times and games that brought
you such baseball success here.
Both losses and wins, now bring his parents, myself
And friends to their feet and loudly cheer!
You are a picture of a compassionate heart. brimming
with joy and fiery determination.
For in our family, quitters and excuses, just don’t
cut it, in this American nation!
Your parents, get much credit for sending you to a
private school, where you learned God’s laws.
To add to your busy schedule,you study the Bible
on your own, this puts me a state of awe!
Patriotism runs in our family with passion, and you
look forward to the November election and voting!
You have wanted to vote since age ten…a red, white
and blue heart….most worthy of notiing.
Our lovely town, just won’t be the same next year,
without your laughter, goodness, and bright smiles in it.
But dearest Grandson, God bless you, in your academic studies.
in college next year, I just know, you’ll be a scholarly hit!
I am so glad, that God in his goodness, gave you to our family,
and He will guard you in all your winsome ways.
Spread your goodness and happiness wherever you may go, as
we llght colorful candles with joy~ and no delay.
Happy Birthday, Grandson
A dedication to my beloved grandson.
Tall, witty, well-educated and then some!
