Who Dat?

All the people in the world

like to say the name

it is a name of power

it is a name of fame.

What is that name?

No one cares

It never stays the same.

Royalty and thugs

have been the name

they are the same,

one indistinguishable

from the other

Celebreties and criminals

follow the meme

we just let em

rule us because

of their fame.

It doesn’t matter

who it is

we like to say

their name.

Humans like

to follow the name

Of fame and power

All it costs is a brain.

Teach your Children Well

With these new American values your child can become President of the U.S.A.

• Tell them to never take responsibility for their actions, to focus only on themselves.
• Remember to objectify women, for there is certainly a reason for two genders and It is okay to commit adultery
• It goes without saying that all lives matter not, especially if you have color.
• There is no such thing as losing (only wining matters no matter the means).  
• Seldom read, but do watch tv constantly,
• Ignore the facts and and make their own reality that is the only one that is not fake.
• Do not use information to make decisions for, what they believe is more important than results that disagree.
• Bully others, call them names, show no respect to those who oppose you,
• It is ok to lie and always be ready to change your opinion to please important people and groups,
• And remember looking good is always better than doing good. 

Collateral Damage

What is the price we are willing to pay

to live in the now we’ve created?

to cover our mother with garbage

and filth. to extract her innards to

insure the future will be barren?

With shock and awe we force 

the world to bend to our will

so we can rape our mother

and along the way create

those who hate us?

Our values are skewed

toward the liberty to use

others and the earth

as we please in pursuit

of glory and gold at the

expense of all the others.

That is the price we pay!

The danger of isolation

The hardest thing

In this world is

to concur with 

diverse beings

Because

evolution makes

us wary of those

different from us

In one way or another

So

we Isolate our souls from

the beauty of each other.

Eternity for Dad

It was his birthday

yesterday, only he

couldn’t celebrate

from his grave.

Yet he is still in

people’s thoughts

and computers,

he hasn’t been erased.

I am uplifted

to know he may

may be buried

deep inside servers.

Someday he will

appear on someone’s

screen  they will say,

 "I thought he died."

As long as he is 

in memory he

can be retrieved

isn't that eternal life?

Boom, Boom, Boomers

They came home in a rush

with the pent up lust 

of soldiers 

returning from war.

Soon they created  

a lump of humanity 

that disturbed the tranquility 

of modern American life.

So the boys were packed up 

to relieve the bulge,

a late abortion, so to speak,

and sent to a senseless war.

When they came home

If they came home

those who stayed home

called them all sorts of names.

The left and right

disrupted their lives,

again and again and

sent their children

to more senseless wars.

This time no one called them names.

Progress of sorts.

What is real and what is not?

The pine filtered sun

Ascends from the east

And places her beam

On a speckled woodpecker

Pecking at a tree

My senses perceive

The marvels  around

While my brain decides

What wonderful things 

It expects to receive

Quantum theory provides

An explanation of sorts,

It is all subatomic particles 

Spinning and whirling

Influenced by magnetic flux.

It doesn’t really matter

What it is or how

It came to be

For beauty doesn’t care

About it's beginning
