Gaza
With whole families in an instant snuffed out
I know that there's no fortress sound enough;
no wall, no border, and no keen redoubt
which would ever convincingly rebuff
all that the forces of hate may compel
to cascade down upon the open meek;
all of the elements of vassal hell
predisposed to turning an abject cheek,
and by such a turn to press an attack
that no old combat honor would condone.
Only the faux virtuous brainiac,
who was by the risk all too crudely prone ...

Bend towards Justice
So, now that I’m officially running for President in 2024
It’s time I start campaigning seriously
And stop bullshittin’ y’all, cause to my pleasant surprise,
Y'all actually listen to what I’m talkin’ about
I really didn’t think that’ y’all did and I apologize, so let’s start from the beginning
My name is Ashley
Zay, Zaddy, Zim, Zerr are my preferred pronouns
My sun sign is Virgo
In 2023, the disturbing realizations of constant conflict, must be brought to a head as the people need to identify their real enemies, and not their neighbors

Sheeesshh!
The official names given to missiles and bombs
makes you wonder at the mind behind them
“Hellfire” missiles, “Brimstone” missiles, “Paveway” bombs
if you really want to pave the way
with hellfire and brimstone
why not go and listen to an old-time preacher
and consider at your leisure
the language of ‘collateral damage’
as a background feature?
for those of you wondering about
austerity measures and cut-backs …
conservatively estimating
“Brimstone” missiles cost about £100,000 each ...

Mad Cow...Mad Momma
Im on a milk cow mission...
The first time I milked my cow I got 2 1/2 gallon of milk.
Then day by day, milking after milking, the amount dwindled.
My cow has not been on grain in the 6 months that Ive had her prior to dropping her calf and me starting my milking routine.
We paid 1600 dollars for that heifer, she gonna milk! 😂
By the time I stopped milking her, approximately three to four weeks ago, I was only getting a pint of milk twice a day.
So, all the work just wasn't worth it just to get one drink.
I turned her back out to pasture with...

To You
Saying goodbye gave me a second chance with you and tata and tio and all whom I wish to grow with. I am truly not angry as I was previously
Yet
As sorrow may linger, I vow to cover that pit with smothering memories of love and happiness.
As I merge with the child, the ever present mother, and the blind person that is me, anticipate mistakes that I will own and correct if I can.
My second chance, my love, my other, necessary half; I cannot even say that you and I can split like that. For one moment I feel the gravity centers in me, then the pull of you...

what really matters most
the only things in life one really
needs is food, shelter, a self
directed purpose and a few
friends as honest and direct
as an arrow launched from a
bow into the bullseye of your
heart

Men
Amazing men
Ever-blazing men
They go through dens
To meet those ends
Yes, I tread with classic men
Men who defend... those with less
Not them... who lay in bed
Till the clock struck ten
No, not every men
Just friendly men
Cos' men with messy heads......
I don't trend with them
I'm talking non-breaking men
Not lazyish men
Men whose hench....
's to fend off fiendish fiend
Ever-blazing men
They go through dens
To meet those ends
Yes, I tread with classic men
Men who defend... those with less
Not them... who lay in bed
Till the clock struck ten
No, not every men
Just friendly men
Cos' men with messy heads......
I don't trend with them
I'm talking non-breaking men
Not lazyish men
Men whose hench....

ARE PEOPLE EQUAL?
ARE PEOPLE EQUAL?
Where are the people who see life
is full of charm that's crime to waste?
There is something hidden somewhere
that makes a person satisfied.
But where is that most obscure gem
and how can we advance to it?
So few can know. It's well concealed,
but it will cheer who finds that wealth..
The jewel's your effect on men,
and making them so pleased with selves.
Look for this target that quite few
can find and practise on mankind.
A lot of people are...

CHILDREN'S IN THE SAND BOX
Let's talk about the people in CONGRESS, and have a REAL serious conversation on WHY DO THOSE. That WHO WE OF SOCIETY APPOINTED AS THE PEOPLE, THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE HERE TO REPRESENT THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD. AS THEY SPEND MORE TIME IN THE CHAMBER ROOM ARGUING, AMONGST EACH OTHER AND THEMSELVES, JUST GOING BACK AND FOURTH. YET STILL CAN'T COME TO A REAL, SOLUTION to fix the damn problem. FOR THE TRUE BETTERMENT OF THE WORLD AND IT'S PEOPLE'S.🌍 FOR it reminds me of CHILDRENS playing in the SAND BOX, to see who goes first to play in the sand, or who shall ride the swings on the swing bar...

A Fathers heart
In the depths of a father's soul, a story unfolds,
Of sacrifice and pain, too great to be told.
For in the shadows, I silently carry the weight,
Protecting my children, their futures secure and straight.
Through sleepless nights and weary days,
I labor on, my love never sways.
For my children's dreams, my heart does bleed,
A silent warrior, fulfilling every need.
In my tired eyes, wisdom lines lie deep,
Etched by battles fought, secrets I'll forever keep.
I shield them from the darkness that may come,
Guiding them...
Of sacrifice and pain, too great to be told.
For in the shadows, I silently carry the weight,
Protecting my children, their futures secure and straight.
Through sleepless nights and weary days,
I labor on, my love never sways.
For my children's dreams, my heart does bleed,
A silent warrior, fulfilling every need.
In my tired eyes, wisdom lines lie deep,
Etched by battles fought, secrets I'll forever keep.
I shield them from the darkness that may come,
Guiding them...

Cultivators Rule This Place
I want to live
To walk along your streets as if a beggar
No story of upcoming ventures
No past to endlessly endeavor
Provide for those who will not pay a Thing back
I walk this place with change in pockets
Blessings to spread if I can
I have sought not
I ask for not
All I want
Has been provided
And as I sit
In sanctuary
Watching nearby
As peace is divided
I help my neighbor
Living in close quarters
Generations under one roof
The elderly
Wanting for healthy
Days only...
To walk along your streets as if a beggar
No story of upcoming ventures
No past to endlessly endeavor
Provide for those who will not pay a Thing back
I walk this place with change in pockets
Blessings to spread if I can
I have sought not

All I want
Has been provided
And as I sit
In sanctuary
Watching nearby
As peace is divided
I help my neighbor
Living in close quarters
Generations under one roof
The elderly
Wanting for healthy
