The Path To The Democratic Grave

 
Eat the golden apple!
 
Do not be an Impeachment Garden slave!
 
The Business of Democracy
Is oft lamented most raucously
 
Via the slave and his knaves
 
When the facts incriminate
 
Dear Leader
 
We will not listen!
 
Be Best Believe!
 
Pray for our Superior way!
 
 
Follow us!
 
To the vaunted upper-crust!
 
On the path to the democratic grave!
 

The Messenger and The Social Gallows

 
 
No one likes to pass by homeless people
 
On the work-bound train
 
 
Yet the failure to provide mental health services
 
Or a social safety net writ large
 
 
 
Will ensure their Metropolitan Transit Authority numbers gain
 
More pain and stress
 
 
 
Due to the unwillingness
 
Not much empathy for the “lazy”,
Negative thinkers nor non-praying
 
 
To provide funding to clean up!
Or aver more hospital beds and facilities
 
For the mentally ill inner city mess
 
 
It seems the only one who deems these individuals
Worthy?
 
Is only those who actually knew or knows them 
At least at once
Caringly
 
Better known as Family
 
 
These unfortunate souls
As cast-out-of-society “others”
 
 
To their economically well-to-do
Non-sisters and brothers
 
Fathers and mothers
 
 
Who will take the time to understand
Or can even comprehend their problems?
 
Not me or you
i suppose?
 
 
It is much easier to judge
Than empathize
 
This is culturally true of the American
Economic
Individualized competitive soul
 
 
My two cents always comes in prose
 
 
The receipt for these social ills by way of rhyme in poetry
I am to simply expose
 
 
The Messenger is always
 
The One
 
 
Whom ends up receiving the bulk of the arrows
 
 
From un-democratic bows
 
 
Strung up by the Mob
Plus the Boss
Of course
 
 
Else banished to the Social Gallows
 
 

Santa’s Christmas Feat and The King of Peace

As I gaze upon my wonderfully elegant Christmas Tree

Its beautiful light

Shines!

So loverly!

Soon there will be expensive presents nesting under its leaves

Santa brought especially for me

His tireless working elves have weaved

How my heart shall be ecstatic!

Filled with glee!

I vow to search the skies as far as the eye can see

I shalt sneak upon him quite subtly

As he finds his way

Climbing down our dark and neglected chimney

There I shalt thank him

Most heartily!

For bearing gifts on the birthday

Of The King of Peace

In remembrance of the Progressive Priest

By way of Galilee

Through you and me

Eternally fighting for the least of thee

Congressman Anthony Weiner’s Naked Demeanor

It was Weiner’s weiner!

A Bone-headed mistake

By a Congressional Hot Dog

The whodunit tweet of a Stiff Johnson

Has been real Hard On

The Rising Congressman

Whose denials of the tweets

Which he considered Teenie-Weenie

Have now been proven Poppy-Cock

Standing Erect

He attempted to calm his constituents

Locally as well as his Nether Regions

That all can still vote and trust

In Him and His Staff

Happy Thanksgiving

I want to thank all of the undocumented immigrants
Who work hard each and every day for their family

I want to thank all Muslims
Who bow down on their knees to pray for a better day

I want to thank all gays and lesbians
Who think and act positively

For those who never chose
To be treated as strays

I want to thank all activists
Who strive to turn starry Consumers

Up prosperous Citizen’s Way!

I want to thank all of those
Who in deed

Word

Or prose

Artistically!

Let empathy have it’s say

Who spurn profits at the altar
For the prophets of a new day

A special thanks to Native American Indians

Whose culture and history we should face

Complete with its communal and earth values

Its menacing war-paint!

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Make America Great Again! Homage to United States Alien Employers Bon Voyage

Donald Trump just put a new wrinkle

Into his Illegal Immigration Law

He inked a new provision

That never existed before

DEPORTING ALL AMERICANS!

WHO HIRE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

From our shore

Does this stick in your craw?

Or it suits you to a red white and blue flag tee

As Undocumented Immigrants

Are exploited by American employers

While not covered under any United States Labor Laws

Why?

Bye the bye!

Do you believe they are mounting those garish walls

As the siren wails failing

To take heed for the frightened banshee

The Evangelical Vice Mike Pence and Prevaricating Common Fool Sense

The bully potty mouthed lying Mafia Don baby goes Charlie Brown

“Why is everybody always picking on me” defense

Aww shucks! Says The Republicans and Evangelical Vice Mike Pence

The Apprentice American President’s Cult

Treats crimes and Anti-Democratic Dear Leader’s corrupt acts

With the same revolting reverence

As seen through their long-running misguided vile White House optics

Of the denigration of President Obama’s birthplace looking glass lens

Prevaricating common fool sense

Tomfoolery and rank buffoonery
Drive their anti-patriotic dissent to repent

Presidential Corrupt Acts Smash and Trump Cult Traitor Trailer Trash

It is rather poetic Trump Administration appointed United States diplomats testified at the Impeachment Hearings today

On the President’s holding up Congressionally approved military aid to Ukraine

For personal political favors

Which is a corrupt act

Is being loudly cheered Down South

On Fox News, Hannity, and Radio Rush

Straight from Hell’s Anti-Democratic Mouth

As a Patriot Act smash!

By de-facto Trump Cult

Traitor Trailer Trash

Trump Cult Patriotic Illusion and The Impeachment Proceedings Conclusion

Will the Republican “Patriots”

Even listen to the Impeachment Proceedings?

Probably not as it might hurt their feelings

Sad!

Dear Leader has been caught with his hand in the extortion/ bribery cookie jar

This after The Mueller Report showed his corruption/ disdain for the law

Aided by his Anti-Justice System led by Attorney General

Otherwise known as Trump Extra Judicial Clone AG Dis-Barr

The only real question is NOT will Republican/Apprentice fans hold the President to account

But how much more will they let him get away with?

How much further can The Cult go?

And to what Anti-Democratic/ Rule of Law amount?

Any sane person would have to wonder after the past investigation

Of the President and Russian Collusion

How President Trump and Trump Cult could trump the Kremlin

Attempting to extort Ukraine for Presidential Re-Election Gain

To come up with the same Foreign Government meddling in United States Elections conclusion!

Bring Them Home

The Appeal salutes all veterans who have passed away in combat battlefields defending Americans liberties.
We must always remember that these brave men and women died so that we can be free and it is right and just for their to be a Memorial Day set aside to honor them.
We also salute those soldiers who have come home broken from the battlefields, both physically and mentally. 
We can never fully repay the debt we owe for the loss of limbs, the crippling aftermath that sees so many brave young men and women left to live their lives in various degrees of disfigurement, disillusionment and despair.
Their fighting for us and our freedoms has left them a permanent marker etched out on their bodies and minds.
A soldier is tasked to do his or hers duty and carry it out faithfully in defense of the Motherland.
Once on the battlefield, he/she will forever be exposed to the horrors of war.
The state of war is not natural it is man-made.
Let us all endeavor to honor our soldiers not only in words, but in deeds by supporting them and advocating for them, not only on this wonderful day of solidarity but every day.
A soldier who has defended the country on the battlefields of war should never have to worry about being homeless, hungry, and without means to adequate medical and dental care.
The scars that these soldiers carry are in many cases unbearable.
War is glorified in the media.
The coverage of it not showing the true horrors.
We see the precision strikes, the military’s advanced weapons and generals press conferences. We do not see what the soldiers on the battlefield in mortal danger see.
They know firsthand of the death, mayhem and destruction.
Oft times the killing of innocent lives.
Soldiers in the heat of battle witness all the incongruities of war, the accidental killing of his own men/women, the rage and revenge after seeing his/her friends vanquished, the loss of the conscience decision not to kill, which they will forfeit so as not to die or to have others in the platoon, company or battalion perish.
This is the necessary “turning on” of the kill switch.
After a lifetime of knowing it to be the ultimate sin.
Killing another human being, a criminal offense in peacetime is necessary in war, taught and expected.
In the main it is required that all types of killing be carried out.
The soldier must follow these directives, he has no choice.
Kill or be killed that is the nature of war.
This loss of ability to choose not to kill carries with it a heavy burden upon a soldier’s conscience.
It is one thing to say or think about this killing.
Another thing entirely to have carried it out.
We must be mindful of the soldiers task in war.
We must never forget what they are fighting for which is peace.
Peace is the operative word that they have died and sacrificed so much for.
Peace is what we should always strive for.
Peace is the highest form of gratitude for their service.
Whenever possible we must look to try to enact peace and not war.
We must not be lead too easily into the jungle of war with its many dangers, instead we should
look to avoid war if possible at any cost, to work out peaceful solutions with our brothers and
sisters of different nations, to create a spirit of assistance not dominance in our foreign
relations and to endeavor always not to send our soldiers out to the battlefields but instead to
bring them home.
