Premium Member Dotty Doggy Duo

Dotty doggy duo, daily derring-do,
descending leaves decorating yard,
Beau-black as coal,
brown-eyed batty Gus,
barking brazenly, bounding,
both bonkers?
a boisterous, "You betcha!"

Kings of calamity-
canines of chaos,
squirrels scurry for sweet sanity,
scolding silver September
acorn gatherers,
sedulously seeking sedatives!


Premium Member Called a Sin

Listen to poem:
Don’t ask the gods if they sent
sedatives to cure the pain
those aches of body’s frame
or the trials of mind’s domain

indulgence in the medicine
not prescribed but still pursued
by the drink or much more
addressing woes all deplore

removing more than agony
when composure is reduced
inebriation of the whole
in pursuit of the profane

to be wasted is called a sin
this sacrament now denied
even as the misery
demands a world that’s more humane.

Evils

Money-hungry xenophobic cruelty
Automated psychopath robots
Lustful murderous tendencies
White cloaks, expensive sedatives

Human values and hopes are dead
Trampled and discarded religions
Disgusting psychology thrives on life - there
Alcohol and medicine are the life here -, it’s psychological

Created by celebrated world professors
Success, money, and career are on their side
Suffering, depression, and pain in my side
Hopelessness and abandonment on our side…
