But can Kamala bake the cake
To make the braying donkeys stay?

and then expect us to behave
I use their idiocy as an excuse for my actions
people who know me laugh like donkeys

Premium Member A Giraffe In a Space Rocket
I took a donkey 
Over the border from 
Nepal into India
In Calcutta 
I had tea
When the hotel
Proprietor after checking out
Asked; me 'Any tips?'
I misunderstood & said
'No need.'...

Miles High
South-paw slug
Undermining my mischief 
clouded people
walking lonely bare
drawing cartoons dancing 
unicorns whistle away
WAR-MONGERING white-out
little part donkeys 
crying to the moon...

Premium Member Donkey Ethic


Donkeys have strong backs,
they have to carry heavy packs.
On mountain trails they trudge
slow and steady without grudge.
All donkeys live by this strict ethic:
A lazy ass is pathetic....

The White Devil
my soul
like to a ship in a black storm
is driven, I know not whither

acted to the souls of donkeys
in a Winter night of smoke
Viola Tree and Cedric Hardwicke
still undamaged the glass of revenge...

Premium Member He Gives his 'Goodest' Yet
     Some say an elephant never forgets
     With his trunk, he gives as good as he gets
         But Dems don’t mean Trump
         They think he’s a chump
     Donkeys mean Biden gives his ‘goodest’ yet

Almost
ALMOST


Early afternoon shadows meridional 
Not quite minimal
The heat not quite maximal
Donkeys not yet in shade as usual
Flowers not quite wilting and dismal
We sit hand in hand  - two equal
Not quite yet one and eternal...

The Miles I Trekked
To see your face

I crossed seven seas
    and
    Killed   
        dodging donkeys   

       I slit open several cobras
In the forest of fright
      Sagged at the last step 
 For the miles
           I trekked defile Kilometres....

Premium Member Blind Donkeys Keep Kicking
   The party of the hee-haw would now impeach Mr. Trump
     for denying the world’s arch-enemy, a madman, access to the bomb

   It takes a blind donkey to kick the hand that redeems it 
     and now the rest of the two-legged world sees it
