To Hell with Cultural Approiation or Cultural Copy.
It is very very wrong and unconscionable unless we are copying uplifting values only.
Copying poor value systems like smoking ganja or cigarettes, over excessive rum/alcohol drinking gun running, crime, and even gloryfying submersive gansata rap lyrics are wrong for our children's sake. these are bad examples.
I promote instead bigging up our own local Culture to the fullest.
Cultural Apporiation merely teaches us to homour and repect foreign Culture
While relegating our very own.
I want us to love up our own culture with a passion so high and true
That it reaches out to the very sky.
To strive towards good positive culture should always be our true Covenant.
And so you see Cultopiation to me is more like Cultural Miasappropiation.

His two objectives unmet
Bibi approves the ‘deal’ he gets
from Trump, in an unconscionable rush
to bully Israel into a peace made of mush
For 15 months Bibi touted 'non-negotiable' goals
All hostages returned, and Hamas crushed
This ‘deal’ achieves neither, though lauded in the West
To Trump, Bibi caved, a paper tiger when pressed
Past time for Israel to assert itself on the world stage
Show itself and the world that it’s come of age
Vote Bibi out, along with his feckless friends
Elect someone brave, who neither breaks nor bends

Ruffling the feathers
Of your expectations.
Rilke to the left.
The portrait of Alf
The back of my left ear.
What unconscionable theives,
These Time Czars,
Where we live with the scars,
As joy bounces on the crevices.
I see you in the dark in some cave.
Let me be your bombastic populist.
The Strong Arm of the Soul.
Play in the light of least resistance.
My garden grows in the garden of your heart.
My every breathe is your eternal existence.
Bite the doughnut.
Press for hugs.

I want someone I cannot have.
same story, different tale.
time spent with her, I'm elated,
time apart, a bitter hell.
I want someone I cannot have.
her beauty takes my breath away
but she belongs to someone else
it be unconscionable to stay.
I want someone I cannot have.
so I try to turn and go
but every fiber of my being
just screams, "NO".
I want someone I cannot have.
this will kill me in the end
so I'll try to flip the script
and make her just a friend.

Sweetest eyes collective; of what can only be most meaningful
They are spectacles of what is best seen; you're truly beautiful
The gifts you freely give; are full of unconscionable power
Never has another; gifted me a simple flower
You told me; I mean more to you than I could ever know
But within you; someone far more special than I bestow

hovering o’er head
a halo? likely stars…
a circle of cuckoo birds
unconscionable violence
toward a sinner or saint
unconscious body…
could have deserved it or not
just desserts or rot…
a good samaritan steals
the show, pretentious or pure
violence of stars…
vigilant suffering haunts
amnesia of act…
his own? the perpetrators?
samaritan out of cash
samaritan posts
on social media, asks
legitimately or not…
green leaves falling from the trees
is he a treasure or thief?
victim lays in bed…
his feathers are dollar bills
and will he rise up…
or cash out? head stuffing-filled?
was he faking all along?

Out of the night a black vice POTUS,
a cry of hope from poll to poll-
wrapped in our flag we know they loath us
and our unconscionable goal.
In the fell clutch of discrimination
we hear them wince and cry aloud.
Within our bludgeoning, christian nation
their heads are bloody, ja, und cowed.
Let them sulk in their vale of tears
We’ll never let them turn the page.
No prospect of getting four more years
finds ,and shall find us howl with rage.
Again we’ll make our country great,
what matter we lose our nation’s soul?
He is the master of our fate—
wir gibt unser Fuhrer ganz kontrol.

So many unconscionable ways to deal with pain
This scorpions lost track of how many dragons he's slain
Others might have battled them with a shield and sword
My weapons of choice, the pen, paper, and the keyboard
The handful of companions that have stood with me and fought by my side
Will know love and devotion in excess to even that which they provide
For in each and every one of them, there's a potent muse
It is a mystical secret weapon that I often love to use

"New Covenant"
Heaven was on earth
in those days, all connected,
yet, the challenged unseeing
lost in the
Garden of Eden,
walking in circles
life
bleeding,
time wasting
the vacuous,
calculating,
yet, unconscionable
all seeing

Its now to question
It's now to dicuss
It's now deny
Any hold over us
By the spawn of
The unconscionable
The dregs of the dregs
The descendants of
Misfits septic as pus
Unacceptable beings
Being devoid of true
Soul, lovers of gloom
Who live as in holes
Like spiders in Webs
They only can kill
If their dens are not
Cleaned out; nows
No time to be still
It's time to be active
Spread the news all
Around , their agendas
Have lost it, Humanity
Is taking back ground.'

Under the skin, it lurks -
Ungodly, ungrateful,
Unjust, and raring to
Unleash viciousness with
Unconscionable acts.
Utterly devoid of
Understanding, it reeks!

Angry thoughts took me hostage for ten days
My dendrite chain choked my imagination
Demanding her participation in worst scenario fabrication
I worked my mind into a furiously angry frenzy
Falling to sleep was no longer easy or relaxing
My keyed up state refused to give up her hostility
Luckily I was cognizant enough to not text or email
Saving a relationship I have had since birth
Prayer finally dissipated my unconscionable angry thoughts

Indians were once stripped of their land
An unconscionable act that's hard to understand
In this day and age
We've turned the page
But can't help being ashamed of the history firsthand

Held to Her chest, silly noises and funny faces made you happy
Gripped in His hand, temper tantrums and meltdowns reared your independence
Your fatigue and fussiness paints with such an unconscionable art-ness
All the while We were growing yet teaching you affinity
Moon tide you yearned for Us, in your crib-beating, in the beautiful blackness
We adored you and said “don’t be afraid of this divine darkness”
As a youth you distanced from Us, lashed back always wrong-Us; and right-you
Til moving out into the world, aspired zeal and faithfulness surfaced your moral
Your Intellect and passion transfigured your heart into a bestowing windfall
We piecemeal together a perfect match yet only expected effort from you
Effectuating your beat, rhythm and fervor thru the sable noteworthy nightfall
Jones in your bones made you fonder of Black Love’s vulnerable call
