House of Charades, Easter Sunday
Two by two,
all but three file in
Led
round the necks in the
footprints of their forefathers
and the convictions of
those men,
to an old tennessee brick church,
tullahoma.
inside–
a time capsule.
An uncanny, anachronistic testament to the
power,
control...
and from the back he appears:
the beginnings of a bowl cut
improperly sized suit vest,
with a garish
pink
shirt and
tie to
match the flowers
laid out
by the altar.
Features of a formerly

Leaders of the Real World
"Your children have grown.
And you never made your wife moan."
-----Ms. Regina Spektor.
Oh but to sleep.
Our maiden arms keeps us awake.
Regina Spektor,makes for delicious debate,
on what makes. Her music so great.
Necropolis.
Bubble gum photos,
of our creamy white tongues on tongues.
Contagious dancing lovers.
Time has frozen.
Forgotten about.
Stuck in democratic,
Budget Biden's.
Slumped,
Over Trumps.
Necropolis.
Your time is done.
...
And you never made your wife moan."

cook onboard
the cook onboard
I had gone to sea as a gally boy it was the way
I could save money for a further education
and it so happened the ship was stuck on ice
In the Black Sea waiting for a Russian tugboat
to set us free.
the crew were an odd sort, they had survived
the war, but spent so long time on ships they
had no idea how to get home.
the officers were elderly men picked up from
the last chance saloon and since the ship was
dry they didn't chance it by going ashore
the cook was Swedish and the gayest man
I had ever...

Colloquial Truths
How refreshing would it be if we heard a politician say:
I don't believe in God and I don't believe in the protection and welfare of our citizens, their health & their safety
I plan on placing my friends in executive positions
I will pocket what funds I can get away with, but see that the rest is spent on my election
You will have no voice in my decisions any more then you ever had
You will have to accept my judgement, which you will have no choice
If I succeed in fooling the public, the public will have themselves to blame...

Bullshit
Why is fake news?
Called fake news?
In the good ole' days
'We' used a more direct approach
It was simply called bullshit
And was oft used as a pronoun
Normally associated with certain individuals
Known for speaking untruths, aka lies
Such as 'bullshit Bob' etc
I did know someone
Who called themselves bullshit Dave
Or whatever his name was
But i kind of respected him for that
For his honesty
About his dishonesty
But then again
Maybe he was bullshitting
About being a bullshitter
Nice...

The Leaders of the World
The rich acquire wealth through dishonesty and the enslavement of the poor.
Figuratively speaking, they feed on the blood, sweat and tears of poor workers.
The leaders of the world cannot go to battle and fight their wars for themselves.
So they teach their citizens utter nonsense about nationalism and patriotism.
Teaching people to love one another and to hate one another is absurd.
You must not let anybody train you and order you to fight as if you were dogs.
Do not let the authorities brainwash you and use you to do their dirty work. ...

And I didn't have to hurt you,
But you said not to move,
The fleeing it fails me, Confront and impale me, It's true.
I'm bleeding.
Waking up and breathing but you don't care, short tempered and seething when its not fair.
Living and feeling and being aware.
Sometimes life will throw you a curve and just in spite of it you will learn to preserve, All the things you love,
Like to live and thrive,
But there is no place to hide
Or get away from this.
My mind needs a crutch,
No room for your shoves,
Said something about love,
Blind...

Today
Oh what drab, colorless roils drape the sky
As the sky, ashen, grey faced the sun
Clouds billowing
Spread out as tho' to compass all
The sun, the moon, and stars do hide
Those lamps of heavens reaffirming light
Tho' not darkest all -
Not as dark as familiar men's souls
Now conspiracy and conceit do creep
As knavery, treachery, like the worm doth crawl
Burrowing archly in soft rot
Not as men who on stout legs stand
Thin voices hiss the birthing of death
So discourse this discordant band
Full of hubris and cold...
As the sky, ashen, grey faced the sun
Clouds billowing
Spread out as tho' to compass all
The sun, the moon, and stars do hide
Those lamps of heavens reaffirming light
Tho' not darkest all -
Not as dark as familiar men's souls
Now conspiracy and conceit do creep
As knavery, treachery, like the worm doth crawl
Burrowing archly in soft rot
Not as men who on stout legs stand
Thin voices hiss the birthing of death
So discourse this discordant band
Full of hubris and cold...

While Her Husband Was On A Business Trip
Ryder was soaking up
some sun and allowing
her secret love Selena
to rub some Hawaiian
Tropic on her bare back
while her husband David
was on a business trip.
some sun and allowing
her secret love Selena
to rub some Hawaiian
Tropic on her bare back
while her husband David
was on a business trip.
