Willow
Wealth summoned a meeting of the elites.
The meeting; only mercy should accompany us to axes.

I stomp in a tie. 

                                              Disdain for the poor to see.

                                                                       The rich elites flee....

Chain Gang
Is democracy sinking
into feral autocracy
The billionaire elites
with all the control

Politicians but puppets
where rich pull the strings
The rest of us lost
in deception and whim

Political Climate Chains Haiku



approach of hell's wind
scatters well established things
important to us

greedy fire from hell
consumes like spoiler, glutton
unconcerned impact

fire-nado, winks
emboldened, signals elites
get's on the ballot...

Premium Member The Price Was Rights
We should have seen it coming 
     with the advent of unisex
  and exploitation movies with
     females as sex objects

  But we were blind as bats to
     the elites' manipulations
  So, now we pay the price 
     ~ freedom's cancellation...

Socialites and the elites’ absence, they pledge
Low life exhibition will always emerge
Adults basking in the lowest stratum’s edge
Zero tolerance for the toppers to dredge
Yeah, dry land has nothing to do with a sledge...

Give Me Another Sweet Mountain
Oh sweet
mountains
reigning high
in God's domain
there like judges
sitting in
the highest court of
royal blue sky
wearing your
thunderous black
robe and wearing
the aristocratic
white wig of
the elites
above your head
is this crown
of snowy
white clouds
there standing
so proud
this time
i say it 
out loud
give me
another sweet
mountain...

A High Window
I'm seeking that high window
the one that looks down
on the so called high-ups.

The elites have begun to rot
and stink.
The corrupt are grinning
through their death masks
and we smell their tuxedoed decay.

If I find that high window
I will open it wide
and take a piss from it
just to anoint the smug heads
of those circus freaks
who consider us the clowns!...

We've all been invited to the masquerade ball
where everyone's frowning underneath it all
the elites are still getting paid
for playing pinball with our minds
and charades with our lives
such a heavy price that they'll pay-

The unveiling will commence 
when the kings grow tired of the game
demanding the mice to nibble off their masks
back into the froth of their mundane-...

Premium Member Unleash your Primal Scream
  Non-performing AI and EV’s now center stage 
    customers rightly outraged 
  Unleash your primal scream

  Transgender men destroying women’s sports
    dominating arenas and courts
  Unleash your primal scream

  Immigration at the border’s a nightmare
    Let ‘em all in, give ‘em welfare
  Unleash your primal scream

  If we all scream loud enough
    the D.C. elites will have to get tough

My Country
a country so beautiful
a land so vast and fertile
blessed with the biggest lake
and the longest in the world
diamonds and gold
buried under
but very weak leaders
mediocre in perfomance
a people so weakened
our neighbors laugh and mock
our mountain,profits them instead
our minerals,enriches them
ooh,our tanzanite
but our elites
drink with them and make deals
that empoverish our villages
what a nation....

Premium Member On Writing Mediocre Poems
The most gifted poets who ever wrote
Occasionally penned gibberish and tripe
Even Coleridge, Wordsworth, and Keats
Sometimes were at a loss for words
In exchange for a royal coin or a token
Valued principles were sometimes broken
Even poets will follow the popular herds
To sit with the noted, the famous elites,
Writing mediocre poems of every stripe
I pluck my own beam, seeing their mote.

A New World Order
The novelty of it all
A mutant virus here
The medics they call
Hoping to stem the fear

A mutant virus here
Epidemiologists ponder
Treatment is so dear
In hospitals here or yonder

Epidemiologists ponder
Wave after wave of spikes
More fear in countries yonder
Elites here, in worry say, "Crikes"

Wave after wave of spikes
Cases and positive tests
Untested vaccines become our likes
In them all our hope rests...

Premium Member Silence of Song Birds
one year later
we're still wearing 
political rags on our faces
to much money to be made
so we play in their play 

nobody was smiling anyhow

the eyes have become paramount
the naked facers are scorned lepers now
the hollyweird crowd wears designer masks.

Billy "Covid" Gates is laughing all the way to the bank
his father was big into eugenics and planned parenthood...
wake up world-a few elites have clipped our wings
muffled the voice of 7 billion songbirds...

#1
garlic and honey
tasteful summer sensations –
pungent politics

#2
ears stuffed with cotton
jingoists scorn other's views
God still on spring break

#3
partisan’s season -
scientists, politicians
elites viewed worthless

#4
ignorance is king -
men walking around naked
this summer’s fashion

#5
most parties wounded
anarchists aim for the heart
tea rebels force fall

#6
government suspect
nepotism’s hard winter
leaders elected

Premium Member The Unraveling
you mock the survivalists 
and 
militias 
for 
hoarding 
food 
and 
weapons 
you call them crazy
for
canning life 
for digging 
in 
but 
for 
decades 
governments 
around
the 
globe 
have 
been 
burrowing 
deep 
beneath
mountains,,
hoarding both necessities of life and luxuries of want
so when the blood hits the fan
the elites and their kin can thrive 
from 
the 
safety 
of 
their 
mole 
holes
as 
civilization 
unravels
fighting 
over 
their leftovers...

Uneducated Elite
Have read a lot about rights
give lectures on everything
written theories and practices
framed intricate plans
quote scriptures and ideologies
could be celebrated authors
but look at human relations
measure charity to the needy

In sack cloth and ashes
will be your lamentations
what is clear is dubious
common sense hardly there
rat-cat relationship exists
common problems nightmare
the rest better untold
These uneducated elites
do harvest unrestricted
fruits of their inhumanity...

----Occupy: the Soup -------
Infuriated by greed
so we Occupy city streets
tired of being lied to 
divided by tyranny 
of the Elites
sickened by offshore banks 
ran by gangs 
known as the Fed
while political infidelity 
shakes the White House bed

What happened to the basic foundations 
for which this nation was built?
maybe the people’s aggravations 
will identify our leaders’ guilt

No justice lies within this 
“heads they win; tails we lose”
so now we take a stand 
against their scam
because we’re through with the abuse...
