America Is Weeping
America...
A nation once united is now divided
With a presidential election still undecided
Claims that it was rigged are reigning high
The coronavirus cases are still climbing
To a hefty million of them nation wide
It's plain to see America is weeping and
Longing for some peace and stability
Or perhaps just the return to normalcy
Remembering all the while we're still free
No masks for some nor social distancing
Could they be the simple
cause of the spread of the disease
With 245k deaths...

Here Lies.....
They say we leave this world the same way we came into it with only a few people surrounding us. It’s such a sad sight that no one is here while they lower the casket into the ground. There’s no one to mourn and no one to care about this ending. Oh, the beautiful irony of the of the dark foreboding sky pouring down over this empty scene. As if it were crying enough to make up for the lack of a crowd. The drops falling down the is if they were a million tiny people throwing themselves off the casket begging for one last goodbye. You look around and hear silence and the occasional thunder...

Lefties!! Defend Conservative Minorities
When your President
gets called Kunta Kinte
As though they
really think they
smashed a slave
that’s the bigotry
spoon fed to you
by mainstream media
They will not
break the truth
that set us free!
I know the l
better half
of the Left
cannot abide the
theft of liberty
from the
newest surge
of minority
conservatives

A New Dawn In America
We arose to a sky with a familiar peach red and yellow gold hue
our sleepy eyes longed of this view
For we have suffered almost 4 years under a Pres. that has no clue
and at being an International disgrace he is not through
I pray under Biden/ Harris we will begin anew
and bring dignity back to the land of Red, White and Blue
Although, we have the growing pains from wishes differed
whispers of hope todayI heard
And repeated chants of our most paramount recurring theme
which is as a nation our collective ability to dream
our sleepy eyes longed of this view
For we have suffered almost 4 years under a Pres. that has no clue
and at being an International disgrace he is not through
I pray under Biden/ Harris we will begin anew
and bring dignity back to the land of Red, White and Blue
Although, we have the growing pains from wishes differed
whispers of hope todayI heard
And repeated chants of our most paramount recurring theme

the election
Thunder and lightning last night
I got up stood on the terrace I like the streaks of light
across the dark sky the noise of Thor´s hammer
sounds like Portland a restless night.
I love the spectacles of lightning on the sky it is dangerous
truthfully, to be hit by one flaming arrow
and made into a melting rainbow, not a bad way to go.
Then came the rain.
We have been waiting for the final result of the election
it drags on and on, much ado, but the puzzles have to fit before
order descend like drizzle upon a parched land.

Can't Pick Much Candy Cotton When Them Cotton Bolls Get Rotten
too late to be UP allnite yet a'gain,
Flouncing and flumoxing at a dead
guy's door waiting for the great
florida winter to settle into settlements
of beach garbage.
Peoples'round here don't take
that virus'shit seriously 'cause
there're so many oldfuck repub-
lican assholes, listening intently
to the asshole-clown president,
who is such a well spoken ignor-
amous who's expert on everything

The Dawn
now that you are gone…
..may I for once unfossiliferously
rewind unto those dungeons of
doggoned hollows
... all that has but sacrilegiously been
the lifeline currency coinage that you count
upon dearly in its clattering ~ clink clank
corroboree of haphazard(ous) materialistic
maniacal gluttonies until endless nights those
never ripens to the dawns of a simple touch...
if not to the core of l o v e, awaiting in gracious
bridal vain to be at the least gazed...

Song of the Sea
♪O deep rolling sea,
Such a pleasure to me!
Roll over my soul,
Set my spirit free.
Come take me away
To the land of the new day:
I give you control,
Come and sweep me away!
♪Roll over my soul,
Roll over my soul,
Your sweet billows roll
And make me whole.
O sweep me away
To the land of the new day;
Let my soul find sweet rest
In the land of the blest.
♪I hear there are dreams
Where the soft sunlight gleams;
I hear there are nights
Where the moon paints...
Such a pleasure to me!
Roll over my soul,
Set my spirit free.
Come take me away
To the land of the new day:
I give you control,
Come and sweep me away!
♪Roll over my soul,
Roll over my soul,
Your sweet billows roll
And make me whole.
O sweep me away
To the land of the new day;
Let my soul find sweet rest
In the land of the blest.
♪I hear there are dreams
Where the soft sunlight gleams;
I hear there are nights
Where the moon paints...

Heart Of Freedom
My heart wants the
world to go back
to normal but we
can't because we are
Living in:
Newton's 3rd Law: Aftermath
Which governments are
responsible and will
they ever give us the
cure/vaccine are we
going to live in this
place where we give up
our freedom for safety
Or will we rise up to take
back our freedom
world to go back

KAMALA
Her name is not Pamela or Cam-a-la
it is pronounced Comma-la
She is the blooming Lotus flower of our fair state
and for me that fact is not up for debate
A woman with a winning million-dollar smile
who wears pearls as an homage to classic female style
As fierce as any Lioness at defending her Pride
and the reason why Kavanaugh cried
Her grilling Barr proved he is unfit
and after 11/3 his office will be forced to quit
The first woman, Black and South Asian, to be a heartbeat away from being President
and I can't wait for her victory in the...
