His Story Replay

Columbus despised local folk
Like Trump, he fibbed as he spoke
But truth be told
He wanted their gold
And you know that man ended up broke

The Eyes of Columbus

Columbus of magic was fighting for inner logic who saw a flat world of ruler disaster that sat on a merry go round ride created by our gravity master.
Form: Rhyme

Columbus

When Morning Star saw Standing Bear
She could make love right then and there
Then Columbus came
And cursed it a shame
Now Justice rules who, how, and where!

Picking My Own Kind of Slapstick

Every treaty they make 
makes to cheat me
to
dislocate me 
from my
territory

and on the plains
it is so plain to see
that a treaty's not
worth
diddly squat.
Form: Rhyme

Happy Dappy Happy

I
Full of promise
Hard work, Love,
God, prayer, planning
Yet enjoying America

Independence from fear
Freedom from want
Freedom for Cs:
Creation, Children, Conscience

Premium Member Goodbye Columbus -- Day

In the year fourteen-hundred ninety-two
Indigenous Peoples, Columbus screwed --
  He gave them worthless trinkets
  So now they've 'rethinked' it --
Virtue-signaled Chris' moral turpitude

Six o`clock 
In the morning
Is the best time
To get up when it is summer
Stay on the terrace
Inhale the air
Before it gets hot
Make a coffee
Just being alive
Elderliness is to be grateful
For little things

Made

Could you be so Shallow
To walk in the Shadow 
Of a dark after Shade 
Holding back what you were Made
Something like Columbus day
A new World found
Women Raped 
Never to Portray
What schools taught back in those Days
A Vision that was Made!

Sun In September

A breeze in the air.
A day without a care.
The sun shining bright, at night it's still light.

A walk in the park.
Children playing.
Crisp blue sky, green green grass.

Holding your lovers hand.
Birds singing from up above.
The sun in September.

Premium Member side effects

With Biden and Xi hand in hand
Fentanyl precursors are banned
What’s the surprise
As costs of a high rise?
The incentive for crime will expand!

Author’s note: I expect many more of us will be burglarized, robbed, and assaulted. What’s the harm in focusing on treating addiction?
Form: Limerick

Niagara Love

Waters ... Whimsical and essential
Can't be destroyed
Energies ...constant if constantly
Deployed, somehow alloyed
Ancient witnesses
To us now, an ancestor, who gazed in utter awe and wonder
Watching waterfalls through countless generations?
Why, then, single out a singular discoverer?

Untitled

Words come , words go
My thoughts tonight as taut as rope 
Just when the serein makes its final bow 
In cold waters my feet i soak
As i walk down the gateways of the mind 
Where i am engulfed by grief and serenity
I never saw you leave as if i was blind
And the thought of it brought my heart calamity

Columbus

Columbus, ignoring advice,
Went out searching for Indian spice.
     His signals got crossed
     And soon he was lost
Which for us, turned out better than nice.

So this holiday everyone hails
One who, at his intended goal, fails;
     But because of his goof
     We're indebted - as proof,
All the stores have Columbus Day sales!

Hoggady Boggedy

There lives a hog called foggedy boggedy 
You'll see him rolling in the mud 
wearing his boggedy boots quelching his fairy suds.. 
His pal called Horace Hoggedy snuffles for his truffles,
blowing foggiest bubbles in the  glorious boggiest  tub 
Hoggedy foggedy boggedy
Foggedy boggedy the hog 
Takes an afternoon snooze
Under a  boggy log
Form: Rhyme

The Magical Night

What a magical night. 
I drowned in your caress. 
I'll always remember how cute you looked. 
In your silk mini dress. 

Pretty long legs. 
All lovely and tan. 
Looking so good. 
You could light up a baseball stand. 

When you walked. 
All the guys' heads did turn. 
For a moment with you. 
They would walk through fire. 
And get burned.

Columbus Day

In 1492, we’re told,
Columbus sailed the seas.
He thought he’d get to India,
But had no guarantees.

We learned in school about his ships
And how from Spain he sailed.
He made it to our shores and so,
He only partly failed.

We’ve honored him for many years.
There’s no sign we’ll be stopping;
And so, to celebrate the day,
We’ll spend our free time shopping!

Mask

A stranger
No one sees 
A mask that came to be
A different person 
Who Isn’t me 

Because of this mask 
I don’t feel free 
Trapped
Fearing no one 
Will like the real me

I feel like a stranger
So out of place
A fake smile upon my face

Outside I look fine
Even though 
I’m hurting inside

I smile when i’m sad
I laugh when I want to cry 
Because of this mask 
That I hide behind

The Spiritual - Material Nexus known as THE TRUTH




The Spiritual/Material Nexus is Biology and its material antithetical responses to "The Laws of Nature".

That process is fundamentally "Cooperative"; a symbiosis based on "Trust".

The successful Social Organism, "Civilization", operates the same way.

President Trump never speaks "The Truth".

A "Faithless" Government is a failure calling for immediate remediation or abolition to safeguard our Individual values.

Cowgirls and Indians

I was once your cowgirl and you were my Indian

This was in the San Joaquin valley of California that you planted your seed in me

Boy did we have a pow wow

It was a delicious experience and made me think of the 
arrival of the Mayflower so long ago

Yes, I was your cowgirl at the ripe age of forty
And, you looked like such a beautiful Native American Indian

Together we played cowgirls and Indians
He's nine years beautiful

Fragments

I said I couldn’t write 
for I am an empty pen,
my ink wasted
on letters no one will read.
Torn, crumpled,
fed to the black hole
of a trash can.

Now I write of silence
Etching words into wood
For I have broken my vow with the papers
It isn’t determination,
nor delusion
just a moment,
a fragment that insists on staying.

And still, I write
not with ink,
but with the sharp edge
of a pen
long drained of stain.

Seeking a light

Seeking a light 

Winter chill rustles faces in fields of grey
Feet ponder in the reservoirs  of rain 
Gazes search the blue line for wavering light 

Frosty strangers stole their light 
Branches of sanity lost in palls of grey 
Running away from the pain in the rain 

Nobody hears their cries but the rain  
Searching for hope from darkness light 
Speculating why they stand in the grey

Lost in the grey rain seeking unique light.

Corona

So now I got to deal with Corona.
The doctors say stay safe and be alone
But there still no way to guarantee. 
Keeping safe it won't get to me.
Covid or covert it feels like an attack.
Conspiracy theorists going crazy being whack.
governments trying to rule a nation 
just brought madness n devastation.
All it is,is just a virus
Just do what the doctors tell us.
Let's keep safe n go on our knees to pray 
All we can do is take it day by day.
