Gazing early dawn, to be blooming soon
Gazing early dawn, to be blooming soon
Night is still young, unending
Weather, the morning forecast predicted a rain, ensuing
And then, this will stop me from seeing you, a refrain
The city and the outskirt
A lot sits in between, in hindrance
And the present tense and
the erotic boy zone
wondering through Facebook, whats app for
a lover boon, millimeters to million, thriving.
I am a heritage queue, an odd audacity
I saw time, bygone, as t'was forthcoming
in a closed 'laptop'
I and my fanciful clouded entropy,
the flower vase embellishing the dawn
you and a warmth, adore
one step closer to the brim, ashore!

So, a rich surfer kid with multiple degrees
whacks a rich CEO of a health insurance company
and suddenly he's the robin hood of the A.I generation
feeding the blood of the rich and greedy
to the uninsured and needy.(top that Greta Thunberg)
Folks this is simply another facet of
the redistribution of wealth
Part of the great reset that they had promised us.
Where the middle class pays the premiums of the poor
getting hammered once again.
While the elites and forever politicians
watch the widening division
from atop the insider trading hill
a thickening layer of sedimentation
Far above the unfruited flood plain
unblemished.

For those I've badly wronged, I'll offer restitution.
Those I feel wronged me; I'll not seek my retribution
Should money come my way, I'll try redistribution.
When someone needs a hand, I'll make my contribution,
and, should I fail in these, I'll seek my absolution.

One Man’s Opinion
(Take From Some, Give To Others)
Written: by Miracle Man
9/11/2021
For those who are wealthy, many show disdain,
talk of income redistribution drives me insane.
As our country grows weaker each passing day,
we encourage those who can’t make their way.
A socialist nation were too fast becoming,
numerous won’t work and spend days slumming.
Many choose assistance, given their druthers,
but believe in sharing, what belongs to others.
I can’t relate to what being wealthy would be like
but I don’t resent the rich.
They create the jobs that sustain the rest of us,
and for this I’m thankful and have been blessed.

Our Culture
Written: by Miracle Man
11-16-2019
A culture of dependency is what we now face,
This kind of thinking should be a disgrace.
We look to big brother for the tiniest need,
Usually being fostered by laziness and greed.
Socialists are adamant about wealth redistribution,
They introduce ideas without a workable solution.
The ideas put forth sane minds aren’t buying,
Dependency only causes good folks to quit trying.
Tax everyone heavy and let the government disperse,
If that day ever comes our life becomes adverse.
While Rome is burning some play a give up fiddle,
Avoiding full time work, and content to just piddle.
“Good thoughts bear good fruit,
bad thoughts bear bad fruit,
and man is his own gardener.”

You say you got the perfect solution
You say we need a total bloody revolution
You say no need for any lame constitution
You say death and violence is the resolution
You say you are the better substitution
You say you are for complete redistribution
You say only you can grant absolution
You say your power madness is natural as evolution
But
You beg for money like living in prostitution
Your ways would leave everybody in destitution
You are crazy and full of self-delusion
Your power mad wanting to inflict persecution
You think your smart but babble in convolution
Your lazy and want to rule without any contribution
You would be better seeking to live like Confucian
You are stupid and so is your political pollution

The Deal
(The current attitude seems to be)
Written: by a Tea Party conservative
January 2015
We live in a time when sacrificing for man’s common good is gone,
The attitude seems to be, get all you can as long as it’s free.
Sit on your rear, sell a few drugs, have a few more babies,
Cut a little firewood and collect your disability bone,
That the government will provide during its spending spree.
Don’t do for self, let wealth redistribution do it for you,
For after all you’re entitled to the same as your neighbor,
Is it fair that he goes to work, and nicer things will accrue,
God forbid that you’d have to resort to doing manual labor.
So as long as you, the politician, keep providing for me,
Then I, the voter, will continue casting my vote for you.
As dumb sheep we’ve been programmed and no longer see,
That on us, the government, continues tightening the screw.

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

Why did Donald Trump emerge,
As a presidential frontrunner?
Why did people call a businessman,
To be a political gun, a stunner?
Politics is in disrepute today,
Requiring tight legal regulation,
Because advantage has been taken,
Financially, by the means of representation.
UK politics has shown deficiency,
Recently it has blown the steed,
With the expenses scandal,
From the politicians greed.
Can we really be represented,
Understood by criminals of fraud?
When the citizen needs loved,
Not dictated to by a god.
Socialism can be respected,
In its redistribution of wealth,
There should be fewer millionaires,
To better other people’s health.
Cognate with power’s regulators,
Validate their existence,
Petition for police inquiries,
To demand rigid penitence.

you gotta join in the struggle for the ill-gotten gains
of the movers and the shakers on the streets Wall and Main
we will take what we are due like the Sioux we'll count coup
on the heads of the masters and their double-talkin pastors
on the bankers and their chumps and the phonies on the stumps
on the bosses in their offas and the supers in the sweats
no more settlin for the scraps at the foot of the table
no more truck-wide income gaps ablin biddies to wear sable
at the time that we have won they will know that they are done
and we'll be sittin pretty like Scarface own the city
and the ones who called us chums they'll be fightin for our crumbs
wonderin how the heck that happened while they're suckin on their thumbs
(chorus)
first restitution
then redistribution
sweet retribution
if we don't stick together like those birds of a feather
we will never take our place on the seat of the throne
where who you want you can punish and the rest throw a bone

Man In Charge
How can we show respect that’s due,
To one so acutely in charge.
While supposing to work for you,
his agenda is groups at large.
Redistribution of wealth, Geeez.
He favors a socialist mode.
Plays the blame game can you believe.
Disagree then watch him explode.
I would not care to name this man,
Respect for his office is strong.
But abuse in this form we should ban.
Removing him would not be wrong.
Elect someone honest and true
One who needs no confirmation
Hypocrisy to me and you
Need be for elimination
