I met a little Sophia recently in a Masjid.
By the by I met the grandmother, traveling from "Normal."
I had to travel on a cold day for a hot topic, she was hinting...
And I learned the word, "love child" and beyond!
Once not lovable, it can reach up to stage four.
for pancreas, lungs. kidney and many other organs
if they are not specially "misfit" in this fitting world!
"My son, he read and decided about the religion, deeply."
She said, or I think she said so,
And I also think I knew the other Sophia, too!
Every march 25th, she is a true reminder for me!
She was a minor, but her father was a felon!
Exactly as the same way of Zapruder!
Anthony Mascarenhas and Henry Kissinger, these are strangers too!
They never knew housekeeping before their occupation do!
But one was a U-HAUL, OTHER was a chore.
Which one to which chestnut
must be a president's choir!

A museum in Savannah -
There's some Warhol on display,
Specifically the ones about
The death of J.F.K.
A sign precedes your entry,
Warning that there is on view
A depiction so disturbing
It may not be right for you.
We were drawn like moths to fire
To the designated spot,
Where a little screen played endlessly
The film Zapruder shot.
It's been colorized and so we saw
The pink of Jackie's suit
As her husband's blood got splattered;
We just stood there staring, mute.
Through a dozen loops, we watched it
And we couldn't tear away,
Remembering how everything
Was altered on that day.
Vacations can surprise us
And this one's made me reflect
That there's always something to be found
You didn't quite expect.

JFK Improves With the Passing Decades
By Elton Camp
With all the praises being heaped today
Dare I speak negatively of Pres JFK?
For his legacy, death proved to be ideal
Making him a myth far removed from real
I was still a young man when he died
But well recall that some in joy cried
“Johnson is far better man than he!
It’ll be better now, wait and see.”
Very many didn’t want JFK to be in
His election victory was razor thin
An investigation many folks sought
Thinking that the election was bought
It was hard in Communist leaders to detect
For JFK more than a tiny bit of respect
Whispers of adultery were often heard
Although the media said not a word
There were even those who did say
That it was the Pope JFK would obey
His reelection prospects looked low
When to Dallas he decided to go
In a horrible flash he become a saint
Against him, was allowed no complaint
If Abraham Zapruder hadn’t been there
Would there have been such a care?
The foul murder endlessly replayed
Won’t allow the memory to fade
His adulation has continued to grow
Dare I ask how much of it is truly so?
