DARING TO BE ME ( # 8 )
BOUNDARIES
As I gaze around me,
regardless of the context
of the place or the
people, I always
SEE
BOUNDARIES.
Yes, some of them,
such as traffic laws,
protect my safety;
banking laws protect,
most of the time,
my savings and investments.
Then there are those
rules and laws created
by none judges and legislators
who try to create boundaries for
MY LIFE.
Boundaries that try to keep
me within the fences they
think are best, for example.
of my sexual activities and
preferences in...

DARING TO BE ME (#7)
HUMILITY
Words are, in my opinion,
among, if not, the most
powerful forces in the world.
With words, we start
wars. and with words
we end wars.
With words, we start
a love journey and with
words we end the journey.
With words, we reveal the
opposite of what our
resume may claim or
position we hold affirms.
When I affirm I am
DARING
to be me, I am not
launching a promise
to treat others less than
kindly, lovingly, and special.
Perhaps in the past I haven't,
BUT,
now I am daring...

the rancorous
The rancorous people
There is a country we are not allowed to mention
lest we are banned and silenced if telling the truth.
Once they were an oppressed people who by default
got a country of their own and set about eradicating
the people who lived there.
Their viciousness is despicable. I cannot think of any
a country that would have gotten away with this.
They are hated by their close neighbours who pretend,
for the sake of money, to be allies.
Now, this country of moral degenerates are using
the COVID-19 as a weapon to stop...

haiku for February 2021
Haiku
Invisible flowers
Hidden among razed houses
Jordan valley
Haiku
Army vehicles
Inside sat soldiers of doom.
Broken olive trees
Haiku
The heartless triumph
They lose their humanity
Apathy is their price

WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN THE END?
I have walked on all
the Continents in
the world, all 50 States,
and lost count of the
countries I have visited.
I say this not to impress
but to share what I, not
anyone else, have learned.
It hit me right between
the eyes a few years ago
as I heard what a group
of wealthy men said in the
last days in the terminal ward;
soon to face death.
They were all rich and
among the who's who
in society. In their last days
they were asked what,
when looking back really
mattered?
Was it their yachts,...

banned man
Banned man
So, it finally happened, of course, Trump gets the blame
but I think this, not the whole story.
For years the workers have seen their wage packet shrinking
and their rights being ignored, no health insurance
nor trade union to look after their interest
As the common man gets poorer, the wealthy get richer
they live with the fear of needing surgery or losing the job.
The two ills go together if a sick person stay away from work
too long he gets fired anyway.
The people revolted Trump fanned the flame that already
was lit....

FACING LIFE'S CHALLENGES
SIRENS
Our birth certificates
did not come with the
guarantee that life would
be easy or we'd have smooth sailing.
If it did, in face of reality,
it would be a lie,
Life from the day of birth
to the day of death is filled
with challenges, difficulties,
and setbacks of every description.
There are surprises, unknown,
and lingering questions of WHY?
As they step into our pathway
or seek to keep us awake at night,
we can CHOOSE TO:
Curse them,
Deny them,
Run from them,
Transfer them,
or...

TRANSFORMING A FOE
POSSIBILITY
We all have had them
or will have them, they
are as inevitable as night
follows day and conversely.
ENEMIES!
The age-old question for
some, not everyone, is HOW
do you transform your FOE
into a FRIEND?
Will money achieve it?
Will fame and position
bond a friendship?
Will flattery do it, even
when each soul knows
his or her flaws?
Will empty words and
broken promises heal a breach?
Will giving an expensive
and rare gift do it?
Maybe those and other
gimmicks and gadgets ...

a swan and a duck
A swan and ducks
In the garden of a hotel, we could afford
a black, beautiful swan in a fenced-in lake
to protect from entering.
It was a murderous bird; it dragged dogs
underwater and drowned them.
It was noticed the swan liked to kill dogs
with German names, swans do not speak
so, whether it was contra or pro political
was for humans to find out.
The swan go more and more aggressive
and no one thought of the obvious reason
it needed a mate.
When the penny dropped, the swan had
been sent to a zoo, found a mate...

Bolivia
Bolivia
in Bolivia, the socialist won
the election, after the American inspired coup
against Evo Morales who had to flee his country
now he can come home again.
The world is turning to socialism to equality
before the conservative dictatorship like the one
the USA suffers under.
In our pandemic times, people see that salvation
is under a coequal society.
Whoever takes charge in the USA it will take longer
the people have been so long under the “freedom whip.”
it will take time for them to see that capitalism is for the few...

Devils We Know
The devils we know
that are running
For president will they
do a good job who the
hell knows, will we be
fighting the system
to survive I hope not
because I want to vote
this year because I
don't want to be dragged by
a female poet to vote
Funny I was thinking
about not voting
and she said that she
would drag my body
to vote, thanks for
getting my head straight
