Choosing A Genuine LeaderChoosing a genuine leader
Is a dauntingly difficult task
To constitutionally ask

And where criminals hack
The convoluted system
With a simple leaf
Of a fragile...

all the memories we’ve acquired…
While sitting with our family and...

On The Verge
On The Verge
Beady eye, horse riding dictator
Replacing peace with violence
Using conventional weapons against
A sovereign, democratic nation
His wanderlust and ideologic hatred

Now beginning to see non-edible mushrooms
Rising in the sky
On the verge of world war
Inevitable...

Disillusionmenton a silent night,
the shadows surge.
seeking the light,
on life's eerie verge.

to my fading heart,
than the sore reminder
of my pervading art.
in my restless void,

W-E-L-C-O-M-E-DWell come on in, I'll bolt the door,
Excuse the dog mess, on the floor,
Let's get this one bar fire to roar,

Money troubles? heard...

Who needs a PasswordThere seems
Much use
Of "This" as a catchall
For the appearances
Of nothing..or
Not This
Appearing as This...
So This seems to
Have a story behind
It..which may be
A password to the
Hidden catchall..
Yet..who needs a

Doctor Strange Glove Just last night I awoke from a dream
Sat up in bed and started to scream
Like a funeral pyre
It set my hole on fire
I sure could use some hemorrhoid cream
But I went to the doctor instead...

Flames jumped from tree top to tree top putting us in deep despair
With each step, our breathing becomes more laboured
The intense heat that envelopes us is surely not...
