We have been coaxed by honeyed words,
Deranged by colonized thoughts, my sons.
Our sinews have furnished their bans
While we are submerged in poverty’s fangs.
You hold to each others’ throat
Nourished with daggers from intruders’ moats.
Is this how you want My bloodline to end?

Lyric
Hiding behind
dark Ray-Bans
frees me
so I can be
someone
other than me..
a voyeur
perhaps
to see
with my vision
focused casually
lingering leisurely
longing, lustfully
wandering
wherever it is
gratifying
visually
or satisfying
my desire
to not let you
see
who I really am.

An Ex-President goes thump
No one jumps
Current President falls
America harrumphs
Apathy abounds throughout the land...
What moves people, what stimulates their glands
Why, transgender rights, late-term abortion bans
Trump and Biden kiss! ~ Jill does a headstand

"Whatcha gonna do with that 6-pack, man?"
You could share it can by can.
I’d be happy if you ran
one past me as we tan,
stylin’ in the latest Ray-Ban.
You asked a question, and my thoughts began
about what's beneath your tan.
My eyes 'neath these Ray-Bans scan
other eyes. It foils my plan.
Wanna climb into my van?

They came as birds
no nests to live in
without food to eat
everything to worry about
Now they are sharks
with glass bottles as nests
storage bans to control
and nothing to worry about
New prophets rose up
carrying abridged bibles
and swords to plow fields
but required none to convert
Birds, sharks, prophets, pride;
midnight sun is watching.

Lyric
There was a solar eclipse today.
Only partial, but enough to make you want to look.
It made me sad.
I didn't have a piece of smoked glass or ultra-dark Ray Bans, and certainly not a solar scope.
Looking up, I saw the sun flash through leaf-made pinholes waving in the breeze.
Disappointed, I looked down,...
and discovered a thousand crescent suns dancing at my feet.

Sad days;
Virus attacks-
Deaths daze.
Wash hands,
Stay quarantined-
Heed bans.
Slowed pace
Many unknowns-
Fears face.

Sitting in the bar; perusing the headlines:
From “Galileo Forced to Recant Statement that Earth Orbits Sun”
To “China Bans Reincarnation without Government Permission” -
Yahweh grimaces and hands Zeus another beer
As He mutters, “What were we Thinking?”
Thor turns to Meteora: “What about another game of darts, darlin’?”
Buddha just rolls His eyes
And sighs
As Jesus and Mohammed discuss hitching a ride to another galaxy

Narrative
Crook!
She stole my guidebook,
my pink Ray-Bans, my outlook
— it’s grim. The schnook
snatched my Diamonte fountain pen. She took
my attaché case filled with cash. Forsook
my manners — she’s in my grip. A sirloin meat hook
indubitably-yes or to pressure-cook.
I turned her upside-down and shook
A nearby copper brings us in after he has a look.
The judge closed the book
on me. Called me a crook…
that schnook!

Master-termites invaded
friendly neighbors
logs, leaves, fruits, seeds
they carried away to nests
they parked in bags
and stored in bans all loot
Seeds germinated all over
as destroyed land starved
“we go check for food
at our invaders’ homes,
something we can get to eat
all termites sharpened teeth
invaders’ territories were taken
food store occupied
and eaten empty
Master-termites fled
as their actions on neighbors
had bitter boomerang

BACK BATTLES
Back battle begets bleeds,
Bringing back betrayed blood,
Build-up blind believes bestowed
Below background bruises behind.
Birds breakfeed bite bravely
Between body breaking burst.
Be-dragged bed baby-sit by
Beautiful beat-up barbaric beings,
Banish bangle breaks banquette
because beauty bans bandit,
Bandage. Bad-mouthed business before
Blabbing beasts bust-in bravety.
Barrister back breaking business baffles benjamin,
Back-off bring baggaged banter.
