Hearkening
Some days are chimed by gentle wind
and nimbostratus gray
almost as if Poseidon grinned
upon the land for play...
so no extremes of hot or cold,
or shadows and sunbeams,
would strike a critter as too bold
for critter self-esteems.
Thus the furtive squirrels draw near
when that state of affairs
reduces all their rodent fear
about their weather cares.
But Poseidon's weather command
at last must call it quits,
at keeping dry the squirrel land,
with nimbostratus spritz.

In death, were neighbors
Throughout your life you made sure your social status kept you away from the little people
You had money, assets, friends in higher places and you were full of yourself
You never gave back to the community
The few times you would show your face in town, you had this attitude
A real nasty disposition towards other's who you considered low, or scum of the earth
Your greed made the majority of us common folk hate you
You never gave to charity
The people you staffed as your help were ridiculed and belittled by you
You had an enormous appetite for the...

gender
Two genders
when we were toddlers, we played in the sandbox
and hide and seek, we didn't think about whose
gender we were
a few years later, the girls refused to play with
us boys, we were too active climbing walls
and they went back, playing with dolls, I presume
doing needleworks
A few years later, we realized they were girls
they strutted down the street arm-in-arm
haughty as one gets
Near them were silent, blushed like the girls
knew what we were thinking
When one of the boys confessed he had kissed
a girl we...

Abomination Nation - Republipigism
Republipigs oinking their pablum
in deafening harmonic farts
Deficating in Congressional seats
Worshipping the unholy Trinity
as Fascism, Racism and Authoritarianism
Brainwashes weak minded sheeple
The Beast vomits evil swill in alphabet soup
I can't bare to breathe in his poisonous exhale
His false prophet disciple worships at his feet
while innocent immigrants apply for Citizenship
Seeking asylum from killers and enslavers
Only to find the boarder sealed tight by criminals
Premeditated kidnapping, separating children from parents ...

J.K. Rowling - A distinctive rarity! A white British woman of phenomenal integrity!
By Stanley Collymore
Good on you lass! You have so much
respect from me as you obviously
don't mince your words and, as
well, clearly and discernibly stand for what
you honestly and firmly believe! Moreover,
you're not the least bit inclined to literally
desist from, or just as obviously actually
afraid also to literally stand your ground
regarding what you genuinely believe in
regardless of how very asininely odious
specifically vicious, or really vitriolically,
toxically verminous you're undoubtedly

Self-obsessed attention seekers!
By Stanley Collymore
Isn't it about time that these clearly
immature hacks throughout the
mediia, crucially start calling
these actually imbecilic clowns by a more
appropriate name, rather than discernibly,
specifically, and very idiotically, basically
describing them as influencers; actually
whatever that asininely implies? Rather
personally, as I quite specifically, really
see them: distinctively, odiously vanity
obsessed morons, without either jobs
or any discernibly noticeably relevant
qualifications, and...

Vacant
It is said
Respect for the memories
For the personality
For which you once knew
Has far more value
Then the respect
For a vacant body

Buried With The Dead
Not even trying to conceal their behavior
Spreading deceit right in front of our eyes
Claiming the title of some pseudo savior
Arrogance is born from these ruthless lies
Pathetic old man clinging to spiteful ways
Entitlement provides a lust for holding power
Monsters remain loyal by killing off the strays
Watching it all go down from his ivory tower
Rats infest this land that once housed the free
Memories are painted in needless bloodshed
Liberty hangs lifeless from some forgotten tree
Seems all hope has been buried with the...

Why so bold?
I'm spinning around your
Tightened hold.
You don't know it,
But I do
Can't stop thinking about you.
Blinded by fabric,
Spun out of greed.
So focused, so focused
I cannot see.
Had that chance,
Never won.
Tried and tried to escape
From the poison
Foggy is my mind
And blinded is my eye,
Will I end up
Another rigged die?
Tightened my grip,
Just for kicks.
After a while I started to slip.
I make sound when...
