The right to protest's sacrosanct
First Amendment Freedom to Assemble
Yet on one thing the Founders hadn't banked
~ Protestors may just dissemble
A change to the Constitution is called an amendment.
Free Speech must be heard
Concerning poverty's speech what should we say of homeless waiting times?
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.
Free speech for me but not for thee
Is the Brave New World
Version of the 1st Amendment
Careful what you wish
It’s what you’ll vote for
And what you’ll get.
(9/17/26)
Fighting his very nature,
disagreeing with himself again
Feelings demand what thoughts now command
—leaving verse to make amends
(Bryn Mawr Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
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.
Speak stronger and louder with outrage assert
Right, Left or inane, it keeps us alert
Our First Amendment rights
Can be shorn overnight
When the Man shouts “quiet and you won’t get hurt!”
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.
Jim Horn
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.
Our prized First Amendment
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.
NEVER LET A DAY GO BY WITHOUT SAYING
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.
Trump has depicted himself as Jesus
he puts his hand on someone as if to heal them
It seems he has lost his mind
Thinking he is now divine
Some are calling for the 25th Amendment
He needs to be on the funny farm
So he can cause no more harm
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
eighteenth amendment
national prohibition
thirteen awful years
led by protestants
fearing evil of liquor
handcuffed alcohol
policemen were paid off
bootleggers became wealthy
speakeasies crept up
cancelled years later
by 21st amendment
drinking continues
My Life Beyond
My Life beyond
My Life Begun, my life is not done
I just rerun like a money machine I stand on my ground is your decision on your vision my amendment my pledge no longer on the edge I'm talking league hitting the strike on my time continuing still standing
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.
Form:
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.
