On Taking Secretaries To Lunch

If you live in the valley
know the lava above
has the tact of Comanche
demeanor of dove
Hoe furrow
don’t sprinkle
your seed
then enwire
Post sentry
tall criers
Go home
to your love

Trumpity Dumpity
sat on his Wall.

Dumpity Trumpity
had a Great Transitional Fall.

All the King's Secretaries
and all his White patriarchal men
couldn't put his sociopathological administration
climate health together
truly democratic again....

   George W. Bush, so much maligned
   for the economic collapse of 2008-09 

     Yet would that we today had his outstanding Secretaries of State
     Colin Powell or Condoleeza Rice handling the M-E would be first-rate

In the lobby of the courthouse
People’s demeanor
Are such a telltale
Casual and comfortable
The secretaries
Determined and debonair
The lawyers
Focused and unperturbed
The judges
And then the others
With scowls on their faces
Nervousness and concern
The weight of accusation
The slow ominous pace
Of being led directly
To the slaughterhouse

glorious black cloud
met with glorious white cloud
a unique meeting it was

agenda did not exist
secretaries could not attend
as it was a meeting of the clouds

black cloud’s book was the heart
white cloud’s book was the head
meeting was without speech

they met and talked
things humans cannot know
but outcome pelted subjects’ lives

eternally the clouds are right
nowhere to appeal decisions made
subjects have to bear life of burdens...

I want to go to Dismaland!
I'll thcweem until I'm thick!
I have blisters on my fingers
From the endless futile click
There'll be secretaries on it
Pulling non-existent strings
There'll be rumours of a con
On social media and things
I want to go to Dismaland
And see the horrid stuff!
How come I can't buy tickets
And my money's not enough?
In the shadows Banksy chuckles
He's got the Art World in his hand
He has turned pretention on itself
As planned

It’s an honor and a privilege
And a lot of fun to be
A Team Member
Of the SSP

In 1956
Back in history
The Secretaries Club was born
At UTMB

To orient, teach
And meet socially
With seminars, programs
And luncheon meetings monthly

With groups
Of developed committees,
Fundraisers and contributions
Support the university

It’s now much more
Than a club of secretaries,
It’s the Support Staff Professionals
Called the SSP!
