Premium MemberAnkle Bites

My heart drops
at ankle bites
Aren’t we all a part of human-kind…
Kindle kindness
The human race…embrace
Poli-ticking bombs, , ,
b r e a t h e…
Play ping-pong
d i s c u s s
Don’t be a ding-dong,
shrieking bell
We aren’t all right,
or wrong.
Hate religion…okay,
but it is okay
that some are religious…
don’t a b u s e them
We a l l have beliefs.
Depending on where your heart is,
is where your issue is -
not nearly everyone
is on the same page,
but be
k i n d -
like a gentle wind
Don’t be
over-ripe -
don’t let your words ripple
like whips, tearing others apart.
Love thy neighbor
kiss their hands & feet, metaphorically;
kiss each cheek

Premium MemberMEANT TO BE

MEANT TO BE
PANDA MAZEE,


It was a warm starry night,
The moon was full and bright,
I was working late,
Too sizzling hot to be indoors,
That made me think of you,
KOOKLA MOU
I reached for the phone,
My heart missed a beat,	
I could sense you were alone,
KOOKLA MOU
THELO NA EEMASTE,
PANDA MAZEE 
AS MEANT TO BE.

For years we have been apart,
KORITSI MOU, 
We were hiding
Our love from the start
You have always had the
Key to my heart

As neither one of us 
Have any ties,
We can say to the world,
That I love you and you love me,
Your sensuality is speaking,
And my heart is leaping.
KORITSI MOU
PANDA   MAZEE,
SAN   ENA   POT-IRI
ME  KRASI
AS MEANT TO BE

It was fate
To be be together 
Forever and ever.
We married, our souls,
Finally set free,
Just the priest you and me,
STO  OREO  MAS  SPITAKI
SENA  OMORFO  NEESAKI,
APGAPI  MOU SE  AGAPO,
TOSO POLI
AS MEANT TO BE
PANDA MAZEE
Love always wins,
It is life’s aphrodisiac

Paddy Stopped at Empoli

In Ireland wellies sell and wells are holy:
our names are legion in the roll of honour.
We have a singing priest (Sinead O'Connor),
and though we didn't think of ravioli,
we DID produce an extra-special goalie,
the legendary hero Packie Bonner,
renowned as Glasgow Celtic's Number Oner.
We're not restricted to our frontiers, solely:
the land of Stradivarius and Stromboli
embraced one of the lads, and did so wholly!
(The place is EM-poli, and not Em-PO-li:
you'll find it easy if you say it slowly.)
The Church of Rome, today, would be so lowly
if not for San Donato, our boy Donagh.

Easy Chair

Armchair ambassadors
Lying in wait
Have all the criteria
For the perfect state –

That Garden of Eden
That Nirvana afar
History just slaps them
So they raise up the bar

It’s so easy to solve the crisis
From at home in your easy chair –

Poli-sci majors
And young entrepreneurs –
There goes Mister Smith now –
He’ll filibuster for hours

He’s a man of ideals
A man for all seasons
Except when you challenge him –
Then he can’t give no reason

It’s so easy…

Peaceniks and liberals
Millennials and brats
They’ve got it all covered
Like bald men with hats

From their perch on the sidelines,
They sure know the score
And just for the record,
They’re like totally against war! 

It’s so easy to solve the crisis
From at home in your easy chair

So get on your soap-box
And your pulpit of clay
As if you yourself swam
‘Cross the Hudson Bay
‘Cause you missed Viet Nam
And you slept thru Tibet
Thank Allah for your conscience
That won’t let us forget

Premium MemberThe Fire

No matter where I am, 
There you are, sensuous you.
Behind me, when I wash dishes, your arms around me.
Steaming manliness against me~

Each morning you kiss my neck...
I kiss your hands with ultimate tenderness 
And breathless,gracefulness..

My life~ in the ocean of your love.

Tongue Suppressor


Alabaster body of truth
got buried beneath
a dung-key pile of swastika lies

SWAT teams of fascist oppression
swarm the polling places
like hieroglyphic Dead Sea flies

Democracy is locked in a closet,
and minority tears are sorrow overflowing
from a false premise reel faucet

For a few rubles more,
Balaam poli sighs bite their tongue
and don’t say a word

As voting rights get trashed,
Uncle Ben and Aunt Jemima voices
never lever get heard

Tongue suppressor is an 'ol ancient Pharaoh trick;
dental floss over the facts,
say freedom diabetes tis how the patient got sick

Sugar coat the ballot Cain process,
put a chocolate high poll tax 
to gain pure vanilla power access

Play the cerulean bugle blueberry call of the wild,
tap out the bank accounts in gangsta gutter style

While the cherry cheeks smile ...
knowing that the empty elector jingle reign sound,
from the tongue suppressor vice techniques,
will keep the mute prisoners of hope tightly bound

I'M Cynical of Polly

She's been there all along
     Aligned parallel with certain policies 
     Now is her chance to
     Implement them
      
     The daughter of a billionaire
      has learned the dance
      Not only will Polly seek to
      dismember public schools
      
       She will sit present and accounted
       for ... Licking her lips
       as that VERY public seeks
       higher education 
       @ a very high percentage rate
       from that Lovely Loan company
       Polly so conveniently OWNS

       For Polly's Politics truly represent her
               " POLLY'S poli- "TICS"
       those blood sucking arachnids in their
       parasitic form 

        She learned well for Her company
        there IS NO bankruptcy allowed-EVER
        Only the bankruptcy of our Youth
        
         Enter:  Positive Polly-Anna
         Your "GILDED" Throne awaits You
    
        I am so glad Polly is fictitious
                 Aren't you?                     8/17/2017

I Stop Asking and We Start Demanding

I
Gave up
Asking for
Water when
I can make honey
And everything of money.
I stopped waiting on Top Men
When I can bend and make more.
I went into mine and let the Top Men
Theirs and start working for all I can give.

Here is where we start asking the Top Men
For the schools, hospitals, roads and all
They swore to give us when entrust
With our hearty sweat and blood.
Now's the time we rise 'gainst
Corruption and thuggery,
Poli-tricking that is
Bringing the
Masses
Tears.
