Secret Selves
I'm wondering about our secret selves -
The vegetarian smoker
The isolationist who speaks Cantonese
The soldier with the peace sign
The blue collar millionaires
The conservative who dares
The scientist who prays
The vagabond who stays
There's more to all of us than what we seem...

A Ride
when i see a mexican dragging a cart full of refuse
I say gracias espera voy regresar con una bolsa con gusto

Exotic Cuisine
He said he loved of the Mickey,
as he pointed at my friend's faded T-shirt
The native Cantonese man purred,
and said it was his favorite exotic cuisine
Belly, tail and ears
were a most finger licking thing
An acquired taste,
not recommended for the squeamish
The smiling man with the balding hair,
said he squeals with delight
when he takes the first bite
of his favorite American Disney fare...

Humpty Trumpys Will To Wall
HUMPTY TRUMPY’S WILL TO WALL
Humpty Trumpy is building his wall,
Hope Humpty Trumpy doesn’t fall
For if Russian or Chinese politicians
Want to put him together again,
For whatever gain,
Perhaps Humpty Trumpy should first
Learn to say, thank-you or please,
In Russian, Chinese or Cantonese.
But then of course what will Americans say,
To this disarray,
Would they all want to speak the same,
And take part in Humpty Trumpy’s
Political checkers game?...
