I made the bird call
all about me
instead of the blackbird's
evening ritual.

Habitual Ritual

Trump's horrible habit was habitual,
And is now becoming a daily ritual;
We did behoove;
Come to prove,
Being idiot can be considered as intentional.

Premium Member In the Vault with Walt

Some say...Walt Whitman's the poet's champ!

His works were well read, by dim oil lamp.

But, oh so long winded,

Those words never ended...

Woe, ritual champ of reader's cramp

Premium Member Rope Is Not the Snake

brainwashed we float
aimlessly adrift 
in a sinking boat
wasting life’s gift

in bondage to ritual
how’ll we turn a new leaf
living a life virtual

Residual Morning Ritual

Residual Morning Ritual

Morning habit had become habitual,
That soon would turn into a ritual;
Worn thin,
Again and again;
Effects ended up being residual.
