     It's unanimous

Was Unanimous

Did end up being disastrous
What started out being amorous
Decided to make it declarative
If things would be imperative
United decision was unanimous.

"Might is right!" What's rung out.
On the side of "good".
Tis unanimous! With
Battles, fought and won.
Regardless, from whose throne
King of King's, peace-sat
Humanity loses.
Victory to none!...

There was once a fella named cutthroat 
Who played seven card stud in raincoat
          It was his lucky charm
           Smelt like ox on a farm
Banning such clothes, unanimous vote

Blue green beach 
nature's sweet symphony 
sand dollars thrown like roses on stage 
 
the eyes of the audience in a captive trance 
always a unanimous standing ovation 

each mouth slightly parted and in awe 
as the curtain sets on a 
Dreamy Sea. ...

It is a unanimous decision
Shirley is not at our faculty meeting.
We appoint her “in charge” of spirit day – Wednesday! 
Watch out! Her teaching partner cautions us,
but she does not offer to do it.
Neither do the other twenty-six people there.
Thus, we are wearing go-go boots, miniskirts, and tassels
and anyone older than sixty has to do a handstand.
That is me. 
Serves us all right....

"The planted snakes are  venomous!"
Warned q caller anonymous
"Anaconda size enormous!"
Their state with Death synonymous
Thus, price to pay not enormous...

And decision unanimous:
All pleas for ' Mercy Blasphemous',
None to try The Eponymous

Named he had Twelve Thousand Dollars,
Necks causing to wet starched collars

Planted snakes for easy money:
When cops soon breezed in, not funny...

Not even its oceans could cleanse Macbeth’s guilt,
Etched into palms and cut into lifelines, within skin everlasting.
Poisonous serpents twist like gaseous clouds acrid, in a helix of
Trust doubled, betrayed by a cousin valiant no more.
Unknown and unseen, unjust and unkempt - a fate handed down unanimous.
Nocturnal damnation circling circling, that coven three upon a heath
Erupting at the manipulation of a man come undone....

Last year Mariano
Made the Baseball Hall of Fame,
Unanimously, it turned out,
To thunderous acclaim.

This year is Derek Jeter’s turn,
Another Yankee star
And everyone expected him
To reach Rivera’s bar.

But no such luck, for Jeter,
With so many wins and hits,
Got elected with no problem
(Or the fans would throw some fits!)

Yet the vote was not unanimous,
For it was one vote shy
And I’d love to ask the holdout
Just one simple question – why?...

When it comes to the aroma of mom’s apple pie
Even the windchime outside tingles with glee
My lips quiver as I take my first bite
Fondling my fork in anticipation

Exuding its tantalizing fruity bouquet
Oohing and aahing every guest raves
It’s unanimous the flavor’s exquisite
Bravissimo kisses for our Queen Hostess

It's round
So that everyone has the same width of view
It's round 
So that everyone has the same position and plight 
It's round 
So that everyone is as close as the others
It's round 
So that everyone can take turn to speak 
Like the turning disc at the centre of the dining table
It's round 
So that an unanimous conclusion is reached 
And a happy family is formed 
Like the shape of the table 
At a reunion dinner
If not in the meeting room of an office...

Our Id is our menace to society
Our Ego balances our poison
Our Supergo is our antidote
Maslow created the hierarchy
Erikson set the stages
Rogers breathed self actualization
Skinner tried to put us in a box
There are many more with more to say
but none yet more profound
Live your Life with joy unbound
Leave nothing in your way
Change is calm abiding
with Love we become the way
Unbridled, unabridged, 
understood, unafraid, 
unifying, umbilical
Unconditional.
Unanimous...

Thank you for your unanimous praise
Complete and unchanging throughout the days
Your smile shining above me like the sun
Knowing my life has just begun

No matter what your love is true
Even with the stupid things I do
Congenial and kind
With love eternally blind

Teaching me honesty and morality
Never giving a technicality
Surrounding me in safety
But never trying to restrain me

I’m glad you are who you are
And not some far off star
You are my mother
There is no other...
