Premium Member Freedom To Assemble

The right to protest's sacrosanct
  First Amendment Freedom to Assemble
Yet on one thing the Founders hadn't banked
  ~ Protestors may just dissemble
Form: Epigram


Premium Member The Open Road

  Hittin’ the ‘open road’ was all the fashion
    Became America’s passion

  Decimated by endless repairs – 'under construction'
    not to mention protestors’ abduction

Premium Member In My Small Town

  
     No riots today in my small town
         No protestors or police around
     Everywhere I look, peace and quiet
         On Main Street, three dogs lie down

     Town’s not for sale ~ you cityfolk can’t buy it

Premium Member Downtowns Deflowered

Condemnation, confrontation
  Nasty, no-compromise nation

Protestors plentiful, a passel irruptive
  Ornery out-of-towners, so disruptive

Downtowns deflowered in
  Portland Chicago, Seattle
Lawless looters ~
  Time to skedaddle

Premium Member One Way Or An Udder

Purple-haired teens of large girth, courageously saving the earth, are staging big pours in grocery stores; they're milking for all that it’s worth!

Premium Member Why Dick and Jane Can'T Write

Dick and Jane go to college
     to learn how to read and to write

   'Cos they didn't in high school
     where they studied, on You-Tube, the rights

   of violent protestors, sexual predators, 'n gender-bathroom rules
      ~ not to mention supporting 'Healthy Hemp' businesses too

Premium Member Those Brave High School Protestors

   
     Brave protestors 
        those high school kids

     Fists held high, risking absolutely zero
        They walk out of school ~ Big heroes

     Oh, yes, they’re against ICE
        Mom and Dad are too

     Regurgitating exactly what they’re fed at home
        They’ve nothing to fear, not even fear alone

Premium Member Ransomed

   Shouting and screaming
     about events far away
   Protestors shut down
     the Golden Gate Highway

   An important trial had to be canceled
     business-as-usual victimized, ransomed
   to the vain yells of the progressive nation
     which won't affect one iota
                                  Hamas' devastation

Premium Member A Sad Story

I heard a sad story:
The protests claimed the life of a man
In an ambulance, blocked in traffic
By protestors.
He has a four year old child.
I ask you, protestors:
Why is this what you want?
What do you have to say to this child?
We have been trying to tell you all
That blocking traffic, puts lives at risk
You will not listen, now this!

Premium Member Kenosha Burned Last Night

Kenosha burned last night,
The flames engulfed the streets.
The peaceful protestors rioted.

Shops and stores set alight,
The flames lunged forward.
The peaceful protestors looted.

Homes and houses lit so bright,
The flames rolled toward them.
The peaceful protestors rampant. 

The Gov denounced police
And bound the NG with ROE.
The peaceful protestors released.

Premium Member Flag Day

*Happy Flag Day


Today is Flag Day with protestors here
I will not take down my Flag or cower in fear
I will not apologize for being white
Or an American Patriot, with my flag in sight
I will not kneel to you, or submit
No matter the threats in your violent fit
I will not apologize for something "I" didn't do
But, I will stand for my country, unlike you

Election Over

They battled like 
     wolves 
       in 
       a 
     forest 
But the dust has 
    settled 
Personally , I see 
   dark days ahead
  for our homeland 
However, let us pray 
    for the best 
Angry protestors 
  now fill our streets 
I have been to protest in my life 
   Now I will pick up my pen 
   I. Matthew Anish
send out this ode to all of you 
out there in the darkness

Premium Member All the News That Fits Your Readers' Views

Hey, Ms. Reporter
  May I have a word with you
You seem energized by the chaos today
  Seems that you love what you do

Hey, Mr. Reporter
  May I have a word with you
You interview traumatized protestors
  Seems that you share their views

But tell me, Mr. and Mrs. Reporter
  Why don't you ever interview police
Who've been pelted with rocks and far worse
  ~ Could it be that your 'likes' would decrease

Premium Member War

evening news
in every land
shadows of war~

even the songbirds
have dissappeared.

***

protestors ~
in the garbage
photos of the lost,

prayers 
rising to heaven.

***

unheard
the cries of children
and old men

beneath the sounds
of weapon fire.

***

the blood
of innocence 
paints floorboards,

no passover
for the lambs.

***

tattoos of evil 
find evil again 
cycles repeat,

the question:
why?
