Beltway Crash

I see them fighting like cats and dogs
but taking money like fatted hogs,
so while they spend and spend
we get screwed in the end...
Hail to the Washington demagogues!

Hush My Baby,

Wake Up Now,

The Moon's Shining Brightly, 

On The Misty Bough,

A Man In The Moon, 

Has Tripped, 

The Fatted Cow,

And Now My Child,

We Shall All,

Fall Down.

Premium Member Atlantic City Sunday

Marble-sided buildings sunk in the sand
Jumped 40 glassy stories on command.
Everyone thinks life is nothing and money’s grand.
Rolling chair hawkers spiel and cutely chide
Sunday suited daddies to pay for their brides.
So, a cavalcade of marmalade mommies ride, 
(Fatted infants firmly holstered at each side),
Tossing constant comment diapers drenched with pride
To the beach where broken dreamers slept and died.

The Huntress

She makes love
like a hungry lioness
I adore her shadow
the way it arches
performing upon the wall.

Her black hair flows
age and experience
makes her hunt for a lover
jungle fever in my bed.

She desires a skilled man
stalking through the tall grass
growling along the way
I wait for her scent.

I would hunt and kill for her
bringing her a fatted calf
stuffed with wild fowl
to celebrate her return...

National, Not Tribal

As some Indians (dot, not feather) go to great lengths to ingratiate themselves by obsequious behaviour (bob your head if you agree with me) could it be the origin of the expression, 'To curry favour'? Tho' hunger knows no bounds forget the fatted calf despite the nation suffering from starvation by more than half they'll curry a horse but not a cow those bovine ungulates are holier than thou
