Talk About the Weather
The rules are simple The rules are clear Talk about the weather But no politics here Talk about the wind Talk about the rain But never, ever Bring up social pain Talk about the sunshine Talk about the clouds But don’t bring up The political crowds If you do Best you prepare Cause things get hot And tempers will flare Can’t no one speak What they truly think Cause fights break out Quicker than...

Back and Forth
Back and forth The words shoot across Slicing through my pale quivering skin Sometimes there’s no pause for air As the hate spews from both sides I’m torn between the love I created And the love that I have chosen There’s no winning tonight And it’s only just begun March 16, 2024...

Tempers Fugit
Gluteus Maximus That Gladiator of Rome Got into such a rage That his mouth did foam, He cursed and snarled And snarled and cursed, Yet things didn’t improve But got much worse; His fists beat the ground And he spat into the air, No one dare come close When his temper did flare.

Tempers and Attitudes
Tempers and attitudes in our house did stay Guess it was because we were raised that way Things could get bad when one of us got mad If you escaped unhurt, then be really glad For the attitudes would flare And tempers would rage We were all quite violent for our age With our fists our problems were solved I know that may...
