A Note to Congress
By Franklin Price
4/8/2019

Congress you're not doing great
That's my opinion, no debate
Your job's not to investigate
We elected you to legislate

Politicians are pompous jokes;
not often are they just plain blokes.
They legislate pure ignorance,
while folks prosper on common sense.

Future-Past

Writing not for current ears,
writing for a thousand years

Writing not for time undone,
writing for the zero-sum

Writing not for love or hate,
writing not to legislate

Writing neither first nor last,
writing for the future-past

Erasing Hatred Miracle Man 8/15/2024 We cannot begin to legislate a person’s heart to change. Though through our law’s we may attempt to rearrange. Because hatred has existed since the early days of Cain. Changing a person’s heart continues to be God’s domain.

Don'T Wait Make It Great

Do not hate
I can't relate
Its not too late
To make it great
Don't hesitate
Open the gate
To your hearts fate
And legislate
A plan-- cant wait
Let's get it straight
We need to cooperate
By choosing to separate
The bad as we amputate
Hatred that can irritate
Love we need to renovate
This world let's not complicate
How we can obliterate
Meanness and participate
Togetherness and terminate
Evil as we recreate
More love that will never fade

Breakings

Breakings
by Michael R. Burch

I did it out of pity.
I did it out of love.
I did it not to break the heart of a tender, wounded dove. 

But gods without compassion
ordained: "Frail things must break!"
Now what can I do for her shattered psyche’s sake?

I did it not to push.
I did it not to shove.
I did it to assist the flight of indiscriminate Love.

But gods, all mad as hatters,
who legislate in all such matters,
ordained that everything irreplaceable shatters.
