Some scribblings that pass for poetry
Yes they bear style and symmetry
But very wordy and message thin
And however much you listen keen
There’s little or nothing to be drawn
Not a mind thrilled, not a soul won
Cheapening the art I work to uphold
As a custodian red hot and stone cold
I take after the order of the psalmists
Penning fantastic fantasies as real to realists
Aiming for indelible works worth filing
Piece upon piece they keep piling
And just as light is distinct from dark
I make shown the difference stark
For as much as God’s Grace is supplied
The works show by the skill applied
Poetry has told both history and prophecy
And is one with life an odyssey
If the present falters, the past will hold fort
Until the hopeful day when the future resorts
To uphold this discipline with excellence
As a way of according its giver due reverence
Then shall we witness how mastery tends
And among us reside living legends

SUNDAY mornings and sunsets at their very best
AND my neighbors were among the very best people
COMMONALITY and Community embrace her atmosphere
REALISTS make room for both optimists and pessimists
ATTITUDES tended to mix with a sense of balance
MORE like home to me than was my birth home
EVENING heat often surrendered to Delta Breezes
NEVER thought that I would ever leave her until 2021
TODAY, reluctantly, I'm learning to live without her
Of places I've lived, for 35 years, Sacramento was the best

In the face of love,
If don't think there is a drink called "hate "
Which was made from some world companies
And given to some people by force.
I always feel good to love some people
Who can speak bad about me each days
as they don't have other occupations.
In the face of love,
It is hard for some people to speak good
about some realists as they keep speaking
the truth about many wong things
which continue happening in the World
that need to change globally .
I have never found faults
in telling the truth publicly.
Speaking the truths
does not mean insulting
Or disrespecting.
Love the realists as
they are useful
to many communities
in the World.

So called kind leaders
Who care for their benefits
Than the lives of snubbed folks
Are you really kind?
When you are told
the truth you encrease
your anger and your hearts
augments volumes
Then you think to convince
The realists about your fake kindness.
Hahaha!haah!
Just be familiar
with the truth dears.
Be cool like cold
apple and grape juices
And your name will be joyous
On earth and in the heavens
Because you accepted
To come out of ovens.

Everything can be
possible with some realists
On this earth planet.
I love racists and
hate racism with all my strength.
That is who I am.
I love tribalists and
And hate tribalism so much
That is who I am.
I don't have time to
Hate some people who do not
Recognise themselves.

This year in the town of Bath

There to show, what they know
Such good reasons to go
Real good people in action in Bath
From the second, to June the fourth '
With much discussion.. A tour de force.!
Many realists versus theorists.'
In the; city of Bath ? Of course.!

"Countries, like languages, become different when ideas don't meet
Languages we speak, countries we keep, are words so deep standing on our feet"
Three thousand years ago, only one language was spoken by all people on earth. This is the first generation. People are disciplined even without proper education. No schools, no teachers except parents and elders of every home.
Children comply with house rules and these rules become standards. Standards as virtues like faith, hope and charity that symbolize strength in family relationships.
The present generation is the product of the past generations that originated from the very first group of people on earth.
What makes the present generation as the better, if not the best, of all other generations?...
For the realists, only karma stands alone for each body and soul in action.
What makes life bewildering or enlightening?...
It's morals versus ethics.

on the way home,
i change the new map
to the longest scenic route
though my Sweets is waiting for me,
i cannot find myself to punctually return
i stop at a newly built rest area because my hypertension is expressing
the mess i made will not go away like my atrial flutter
it just sits in wait like the many times before
my Sweets snaps me out of my fantasy world with a text
always the realist half, she gets on me a bit and asks if i am close to home now
i reply by telling her a multicolored lie about my bladder and a harsh deluge
she replies with an 'unhappy' emoji,
so i start the car, cut on the air, and continue my unfortunate trek back to reality
rental cars and women, tsk tsk, forever the realists
i make it back on time by the skin of my teeth
my Sweets runs to me with open arms and a smile
in my ear she whispers 'i was preparing to kill you'
i reply by whispering in her ear with a sigh of pure contentment 'i know'

Let's pretend, that life is one big joke?
We will end up in stockades,like pigs in a poke.
Laughter is enormously great therapy.
Yet some prefer jokes to reality.
Guffaws won't help you if your nation goes Commie!
So what's the deal...to make everything hey,
nanny, nanny?
Some shrink or smirk with sweat filled brows,
Unwilling to read any poetry except those
about marigolds taking bows?
That's fine,we need poets like that here!
But being afraid of reality is nothing to cheer!
Realists get labeled, or not read here??
Plain, silly, nonsensical, and immature outright
.fear.
As nutty as the cancel culture, banning Snow White!
Heavens, he kissed her in her sleep is no rape
plot nor plight.
Telling young children they have no sex?
Wrong! You were born with an X or Y
chromosome, by heck!
Write as you choose but don't ignore others.
Who have the courage to speak, while others
like fantasy covers.
Respect points of view, other than yours if you
can.
No matter our point of view, love one another,
respect the poetic family of man!

War mars the face of Man,
Pitied, unpitied. Though
This be known to all men,
We realists connive.
Thrice-prancing priests in March
Have made red their faces,
Have conspired to despoil
Anew summer’s increase,
Overmuch not caring
For those about to dye
Crimson Plutonic plains,
To expire in the dark.
War, Mars, the face of Man?

God is the architect of the church's history
take a look at scripture testaments old and new
Psalm 78 reminds us to not forget Gods works
1 Corinthians tells about Israel's failures, not a few
Church history is for our encouragement
telling of God's heroes of faith in time
showing how the Lord blessed each one
He can bless us to walk truly in line
There are many lessons to learn as well
the church's mistakes need not repeat
for what is not remembered in the past
is prone to repeat sadly in every street
Reading church history helps keep eyes open
especially in this age being spiritually dark
to read only modern books weakens our guard
more profitable reading ages past to hold our mark
Church history makes us true realists
seeing heroes of the past had feet of clay
for every age, the church is full of sinners
so persevere in the truth till the eternal day
So read a healthy diet from Pentecost
right through all the ages to now
use your knowledge of all that's past
to serve God better in the present plough

Driftwood on the water's surface
Slowly splintering apart
A kiss of a violent wave
As rain begins to fall
The eyes see so much
But they see nothing without hands
Without touch
Everything is an illusion
Life is fake and real
Fakes are the friendliest
Realists are the meanest
Divine what you will
A word has a thousand meanings
When spoken aloud
It is given inflection
And loses most of them
A question with no answer
An answer without a question
One who always speaks
Is one who never listens
Realism clashes with idealism
In the echoes of a chamber
Listen to the same repeated ideas
A lie spoken often enough becomes true
The loneliest smile the most
And laugh the loudest
Nobody looks into eyes so somber
And sees a soul worth saving
Like driftwood a soul drifts
Life is the water ripping it apart
Over time those fragments fade
As if never there

a pretence of goodness
dimes on the dollar
blood on your collar
pieces of diminutive generosity
tramps love handouts
look for direction of the middle class
one day my colour won’t matter
breaking down the barriers
leisurely indifferent realists
NYC subways monogramed
a home but not without help
is education an institution
not from a hand out on the train
New York City is not Rome
the Socialist wonder in grandeur
that was New York
bore by socialist’s clichéd reactions
be real not an imitation of love
liberals cater to their self-destruction
know the established redistribution
a world survives without a coin filled hand
