Premium Member Should I Go Missing
If I go missing, my picture should be posted
on a beer bottle in Jenna's saloon, toasted
by all my loyal friends
A tale that never ends
About the dirty scoundrels who should be roasted...

Premium Member Modern Leaders
If all is lost
and lost for all
Then what's the point
In standing tall
Cheats and scoundrels 
wall to wall
Middle class
is poised to fall
Our fathers hopes
Beyond recall
As modern leaders
Drop the ball...

Monsters Defeat
...
came
them
scoundrels
defeated
by little children
growing up to be women/men
Sooner or later they knew of their future demise
but as monsters, they tried to keep prolonging, the thriving under their enemies beds....

Contesting Proverb Who Is Not the Biggest Must Be the Best
Only if you are the best in service
            of the good and the greatest in construction
            best for humanity...
            The biggest fool is despicable...
            The greatest among the scoundrels, is
            still a scoundrel......

Crush
Susie sassed some stupid scoundrels 
they tried to take her treasure
Bobby blew back barbaric barbs
Susie shook some soot off her sweater
lovely little lights lit the large lake
promising perfect midnight persuasions 
Susie sat still staring silently 
bobby won't be back before breakfast
he had his handsome hazed gaze on her...

The Yard of Honor
Their error is boundless
Sprinkles to douse the brushfire of peace
Groundless smear, disciplinary warning
will burn out under the ether of 
passion for peace.
From the shackles of apathy, suddenly
the Yard of Honor
by the lions of Harvard standing against genocide,
knowing history's on their side and the scoundrels
with their tissue of contaminated faith do not 
wound their conscience.


Dedication: To the Protesters at camping at Harvard Yard....

Dispelling Charms
Let’s give the stuffed shirts
a future they never planned
by gaining converts
until the guild is out-manned
with truth till it hurts
each serpent brand in their hand.

I shall not give out
one iota of passion
to scoundrels devout;
I seize their lies of ration.
Malthusian doubt
cannot defeat compassion.

Love conquers by choice
the demons exalting doom
by raising our voice
until there is no more gloom
in lungs that rejoice
the gift of creation’s bloom....

America the Shameful
The statement that stands

upon an amputated narrative

A brand name theory

that sells more than generic truth

Written histories more legendary than the commonplace occurrences they are derived from


Epiphanies of egregious behavior

attributable to the highly revered

A parallel universe where scoundrels

are no longer hidden under layers of

conveniently contrived heroism and courage

Exposed and repulsive, covered in the blood

of centuries of redacted hypocrisy...
