Kissing is a habit,
Hugging is a shame,
Boys get all the pleasure,
Girls get all the blame,
They tell you that they love you,
They tell you that it's true,

They say the he'll with you,
60 minutes of pleasure,
9 months of a pain,
With a baby ; That's got no name,
The mama called a whore,
The baby called a bastard,
The baby wouldn't be here,
If the rubber hasn't tore....

But these games last four hours anyway

   Referee calls disputed
   Jeers from the crowd unmuted

But the instant replays will save the day

Around the world
There are happenings
Events and Disturbances

Words to express
Poets being their own Commentators
As words turn
The mind explores
As highways accelerate
Words become dramatic
Active and aware
60 Minutes Swirl

    A Greater Wrong

Within a lesser right
 there is a greater wrong
   —begging to get out 

(Villanova Pennsylvania:  Watching the 60 Minutes
 Episode on Benghazi - October 27th, 2013)


     Implacability

As our resolve hardened
  —the viewing platform changed
