people

the trees on either side of the
road still remain trees, and
the road doesn’t divide them;
they are, after all, still trees  ..

years after his stroke, who knew?

she speaks up for me in situations when in company I can barely swallow what they’re saying, “my husband struggles, talking to people like you ..”

Be ungovernable

Don't need to ruminate

Nor postulate on such matters


Silence is compliance

YOU the slave
The voting mindless automatons

Complicit all day everyday


All the way to the genocidal train ride

Thou shalt not question the safe and effective

Questions for science are verboten

Critical thinkers
Self sufficient families
Pointing out the bleeding obvious

Well congratulations
You have all been labelled


FAR RIGHT EXTREMISTS

The most heinous crime of the 21st century

Being
White male

Followed close by a female of any race

Heaven forbid
they wish to be left alone to raise a family

Empty Glasses

The trouble with the media
And politicians
Instead of seeking common ground
They seek out the battlefields
The antagonists
All forever
Seeking riots
Their glasses
Like their souls
Remain empty

What’s YOUR World View?

pessimists see
pain
within pleasure

poets find
meaning
in words

politicians speak
meaningless
words

optimists feel
pleasure
from pain

neutralists see
nothing
in everything

globalists think
everything’s
in nothing

Politics, Not Politics

I'd rather
Eat monkeys
Of a spit
Than
Have to endure
Any more
Political shit
A kind of
Ba ba boon
meanderings on Darwin
getting things
The wrong way round?

I Can't Take Kari Lake

Go jump in a lake, Kari
you democracy shattering
Trump University graduate
losing
is not the new fraud
It's just losing

and

YOU LOST
