EU talks
They sat in a splendid room around a big table
talking about Gaza and the war in Ukraine
I avoid saying, "war in Gaza," as it is nothing
but slaughter of the innocent
Naturally, the Hamas was a terrorist entity
and ought the be disbanded and replaced by
worthy people, presumable with an office
Brussel
Regarding Ukraine, EU must help Ukraine
to win this war sending money to by one
thinks buy weapon and Russia was the
unspeakable aggressor
Not one person appeared to have read
the near past, that this war was not needed
Russia didn't want NATO near its border
therefore Ukraine had to be neutral
We know the hysterical reaction when Russia
tried to build a base in Cuba , nuclear arms
were ready and the locks on silos opened
As before the world sided with the USA
Hamas and Hezbollah, bona fide organizations
defending the right of the Palestinians
and other groups, against Israel's aggression
what we think is of no interest to them.
As for Mornings
The skin on my feet crinkles and looks like an old newspaper left out in the sun, I have five pairs of shorts and can use none
I have bought a cream for dry skin, but first, I need a shower that
makes the skin drier still, and I think, it all!
At a building site. nearby, they are boring a big square hole in the
ground presumable a garage for electric cars and stick a big building
on top, I hope it floods!
The building site used to have a nice house, set in a beautiful garden, but Sharks with cement, bricks, and money came and a story ended
There is talk of banning petrol cars, that means we, pensioners and
low low-paidkers learn to walk or take the bus, getting wet and soggy when it rains, the bus is late.
it all!
UFO
I believe UFO exist it would be strange if they didn´t
considering the many planets in the vast galaxy.
I have not seen a UFO person close up with the exception
of my face in the morning before coffee.
The picture I have seen is always at a distance
and tend to be grainy.
Some people insist they have been captured by UFO,
analyzed and sent back to earth again presumable because
the UFO being found them of no interest.
The UFO world does not call us human but the strange
blubbery beings with a penchant for killings and fighting wars.
They, the UFO is petrified by us keep their distance
hence “grainy photos.”
Still, I believe the UFO people are a friendly sort all we have
to do is to stop wars, be polite and they will come to us
not necessarily in human form, and show us how it is possible
to move so fast through space and defy gravity.
I have been inflicted by it for forty years,
enchanted, captivated
and I cannot get liberated.
Metaphors enrich my language,
as leverage empowers my hand,
by them new things are coming to my brain.
Rhythm and rhyme are dancing
on the precipice of thoughts
with sunlight are painting
picturesque landscapes
of imaginary and real worlds -
allegories of presumable animals and lords.
There was acclamation at the acclimation,
Because my acts did not feel axed or beat,
And the loch was just beside us in notion,
For my nudity to lock my up with the heat.
I dared not dye my hair red, maybe I’d die,
Both my crewed jumpers were crude enough,
For my expressive arc, not Noah’s ark, hi,
Discreet behaviour for my discrete stuff.
Away with you! You’re insane! Not noble,
Aweigh with you’re religious anchor heavy,
Deceitful, you’re not stationary presumable,
But you have stationery with an active levy.
Terrific Tremendious Turbulent
Trip Taken Through Time That
Truly Tempted Those Tempered
To Titter Transforming Transparent
Titillating Tenacious Transferred
Trophies Trying Transliterating
Title Transgressing Temptation.
Now you figure it out Contest
with words starting with the
presumable same letter. Ain't
English great.

PS. It sure is sick alright.
Here are the written remains of the spoken rhymes,
on the walls excavated from the soil of the times.
From a previous era of unrecorded history,
without interpretation, they remain a mystery.
An enlightening message remains entombed.
What will we read from this entity exhumed?
Is a warning from past epochs presumed?
Will it describe how the civilization was consumed?
Some papyrus has ink stains that are centuries dried.
Does it describe how these people at least tried
to survive before they inevitably died.
Is it a presumable truth? Perhaps they lied.
Vale Do Rico Homem
A strange place, houses are as big as castles
tall forbidding wall on top, broken glass set
in cement; gates that can withstand a tank.
A lush valley, but no bird songs, presumable
the occupants of this scary place want peace.
I sat on my scooter for an hour in the hope of
casting a glimpse of the people inside, but no.
each palace was like little islets cut off from
the world, here they need no one and live in
splendid isolation. But just as I was to leave
a black hearse pulled up outside a gate that
slowly glided open- even the rich must die.-
Prisoners of wealth, I ought to take one of them
out one day, so he can see a bit of real life
before the somber hearse arrives.
