Spiraling down from high

The cheese board met with Mr. Insane.
As a block they want cheese to remain.
So Mr. President’s heading,
to ban packaged shredding,
to make America grate once again....

Fighting his very nature,
disagreeing with himself again

Feelings demand what thoughts now command
—leaving verse to make amends

Lining pockets with cash large and small,
Once found out, they return not one call.
But an amendment we need
to inflict on this breed
the same treatment that they give us all....

The issue of gun control shouldn't even be open for argument.
We must uphold and not amend our precious 2nd amendment, 
because when governments disarm you, they can accelerate your enslavement....

Trump Spiel On Weapons Conceal

What Trump has said was a short spiel,
On why all weapons we should conceal;
Dormant  brain,
Without a grain,
And amendment we do need to repeal.

Freedom's song, first amendment's grace,
A symphony of rights we all embrace.
Speech unchained, beliefs untamed,
Press unburdened, grievances proclaimed.
In liberty's embrace, democracy inflames....

     has been challenged.
Now we must hide to whisper
     in concealed corners.

WORDS SPOKEN OUT OF BEAUTIFUL HEART
BRINGS AMENDMENT TO THE RENDING SOUL.
WORDS SPOKEN OUT OF CARELESSNESS,
DEPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF A PRECIOUS HEART.

BEAUTIFUL WORDS TO BEAUTIFUL PROPLE AROUND YOU....

If to our views, you don't align;
You'll forfeit your right to post and opine.

When with your ideas, we do agree;
We grant you the right to speak free.

Should your thinking be different we find,
You must shut up till you get back in line....

I never meta man I liked
Who censored what I had to say.
For when you limit what we write,
Our freedom slowly slips away.

At issue: social media;
The first amendment, in the morgue.
The leader is the offspring of
Commander Data and the Borg....

a registered owner
a name on a list
each time I take aim
or pop in the clip
I'm waiting for the clatter
as they break down my door
after circumventing 
our second amendment
surrender your firearm
your cache of ammo
decease and desist
this awesome pleasure...

Amendment to the Amendment

The right to bear arm's

The moment you pick up or
decide to purchase or own
a gun

In so doing you became a killer

Because bullets and guns don't kill

The people who buy them 
and own them do

It's a choice without defense...

I support folks who challenge a perceived wrong by peaceful demonstration.

The First Amendment guarantees that right, when all is said and done.

But I loathe the rioting rabble who are ripping apart this great nation!

Such anarchic mobs have no respect for anything or anyone!...

Gun ownership is a means of protection against government tyranny.
Lose our 2nd Amendment and kiss goodbye all of our civil liberties.

"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bare arms is as a last resort to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
- Thomas Jefferson...

Are you trying to pass this amendment,
Because of religious contentment,
Or are you just scared of your own feelings,
Not knowing what to do with these dealings,
Telling someone what they do is strange,
Seems to me to be a little deranged,
So don't tell people who to marry,
It's not treating some fairly....

Smack the Naysayer upside the head
far fewer would have been harmed
had citizens not been disarmed -- 

Forefathers wise for Second Amendment
which Naysayers habitually make defendant

a necessary tool 
to keep safe even the fool
preventing complete social upheaval
while man, his soul, remains harbinger
of evil!...

Abortion becomes critical demand everywhere
Because civilization dares death, stares death-making where
Civilization as we know it, doesn't exist
Dare we give children for adoption, for no-one suggests
Especially to folks in our nation: "How is your foetus growing?"
Instead, how is the baby in your womb; Is it kicking? Is it!...

R-oom for improvement
E-nhances your quality; 
C-hoose the right formula, 
A-iming for the victory.

C-reate, advance or make
U-seful addition or correction; 
B-ecoming better or effective, 
E-ven perfect in action.
R-efine and upgrade, as you apply an amendment; 
O-n the twenty-third of May, there's a room for improvement....

St. Lawrence river in the spring 

when a lake makes the ocean its' dream

shallow ice and sand bend the wind

the twigs begin to twitch and spin

sandwiched like a water gin

buds burn through the fragile skin

never is there  amendment 

sloughed grained signals silently sent 

as vast white  feathers float to shore....

please, Mr. President
don't take my 9 away
it's my constitutional right
and I shoot most every day

I use it very wisely
I would never take a life
aren't there bigger issues to resolve?
you've got larger fish to fry!

what would I do without it?
where will my frustrations go?
right now shooting at a target
is the best way that I know!...

Why couldn't I have been disposed sperm & egg?
Turn back time, eliminate me, I beg!
All this angst fills my strained brain,
Whilst tribulation severs me insane.
If not for fear, I'd suicidally assert my second amendment,
Propose & execute a freeing, well-earned sentence.
Consumed by wrenching despair colder than bone,
I'll surely be happiest when I finally die alone....

ARM THE TEACHERS

Let the teachers be armed.
Lest their children be harmed?

Sir has a gun?
What fun!
What fun?

How can we live
If we know that we’ll die?
From a bullet? A knife…
Or a bomb.

It’s the second amendment
Our right to bear arms?
Read it again,
Please read it again.

Why is your issue?
A well-kept militia?
We need to protect
The state.

Not us....
