The Disharmony of Chief Petty Officer Trump

This is the work of
Not a Commander-In-Chief

But a Chief Petty Officer!

Who suckers self described Patriots (Never served nary a minute in any of the Armed Forces)

Out of their morals, ethics, and cheap seats

Adorned in disunity!
Superiority!
The worship of money!

Who sleep comfortably numb
Under unclean

Believed religiously as pristine

White colored “ignoramus”sheets

The Vigilante Past Police Misconduct Caste on Blackface Injustice

The Police Union leadership approach
For black and brown people
Lacks any empathy
Disregards centuries of history
Centers on approval of unjust policy
(Vigilante Justice aka Police Misconduct)
Refuses to express any regret
For violence against
Black and brown humanity
Relies on persistent court
And official rulings
That uphold the indignity
Reinforces a racist police polity
Without apology
What’s wrong with keeping apace
Official Police misconduct as Blackface?

Will there be an outcry?

If rich white people’s children

Are being killed by

Vigilante police misconduct

For petty crimes in polite society?

The Pigskin Season

September brings the fall

The beginning of it all

The air outside is cool

The children back in school

It’s the time for a 1st down

Go offsides and your the clown

Down and out might bring us joy

Statue of Liberty is the ploy

Holding ain’t allowed

Riotous cheering from the crowd

A safety ain’t really secure

Don’t forget about the draw

A hole is good for your screen

Taunting may be seen as too obscene

The Shotgun pledges a down field pass

Hail Mary’s are looked on with aghast!

Field goals are not in the primary plan

Touchdowns are extraordinarily grand!

Sacks are filled with pain and dirt!

Punters and place kickers need to remain alert!

Tight end screens are set up through a ruse

Fumbles means the football is loose!

Interceptions do not bring the affected team together

Games are played in all kinds of weather

Tackles make their opponents bait!

Do not forget to partake in the fan’s tailgate!

So let’s all hope we get on a roll

And our team takes home

The trophy at the Super Bowl!

Things Would Never Be The Same

A boy was born with another
His Brother

Together they were raised
In the zygote smothered
With Mother

Nature was to blame

For igniting this identical flame
The twins played together all day
Walked the streets in the same clothes unfazed

Everyone knew their names!

Life together was fanciful and gay!

Until one day
The eldest as a teen
Was slain with a mental illness

The days spent at the sanitarium
Portended a correlation stillness

Who could exact such debilitating cruelness!

Nature was to blame

Either way each day
Would rain

With the pain of knowing
Things would never be the same

Lost in the schizophrenic wilderness

Will you turn back the dial?

Or leave the reprieve exiled!

Your Highness

The Blue Wall of Silence Wages and The Cacophony of Hatred

The first step to disposing of a problem is admittance

The Blue Wall of Silence affirms tacit support

For black and brown lives being a pittance

Otherwise why not call out the Copper Ripper bad apples?

Remove them immediately for being a social menace!

(Along with any other appropo punishment)

Then you can show penance

There is no doubt that police officers are courageous!

Working with the community

Through accountability and transparency

Would certainly be for the NYPD advantageous

As well as not putting all of Society’s ills

At the boot of their nightsticks

Handcuffs and prison cages

Utilizing a hammer only in polite society

Stirs up a cacophony of hatred

On both sides

Which in turn only encourages

Rages!

Sweet Mother

May the memories

Of sweet Mother

Fill your most sorrowful soliloquy

With immense joy

May her tender touch

Remain secure always

Within your train of thoughts

May her fierce constitution

Shield you strongly

In the coming battles to be fought

May her boisterous elan

Lift you up grand!

As when you were but a mere child

With new toys!

May you aver

To commence to eternal

The wisdom flowing palpably

From her inner voice

Sweet Mother!

May I rendezvous with you

Once more

Onto the shores which retain your ardour

Forever and ever more!

Amor!

Prepare my entrance!

My beloved!

Into the venerated void

Trump Rally 101

What does any of Trumpism

Have to do with Governing?

The inflammatory mockery of opponents

Floating conspiracy theory

And naked “Othering”!

The participants are similarly narcissists

Who enjoy partaking in

The juvenile World Wide Wrestling Entertainment

Fascist gathering

Where they can weave the Straw Man’s Red Cap

Amidst inculcated dreams of American greatness

Mixed with loyalty to The Boss

Complete with a shameless Nazi-like Partisan Panderers Frenzied lathering

The Land of the Political Lost If you do not “believe” they will accost

Why Shalt We Remember?

Photo by Download a pic Donate a buck! ^ on Pexels.com

My time is up!
The die has caste

My final hour
Is here at last

I do not aver
To contemplate aghast

 

Why should we remember?
A time that has past

 

Do not keep a record
Of the trials I have faced

 

The times of solitude
Stomped by the boot of errant ways

 

Why should we remember?
A tortured time and place

 

Where faced with Decembers
Dashed dreams of warm sun rays

 

Tis only the timber of my gallant ways!
That I wish recalled of these rainy days

 

Why should we remember?
The dark cold miserable dank haze!

 

As the headsman clambers up to his rightful place!

 

Why should we remember?
Persons stained with unmistakable grace

 

Why should we remember?
Of those passed on maligned of the human race

 

Why should we remember?
Can’t we go on the unspoken road to positive living ways?

 

Shan’t we waste our time on those judged irredeemable strays!

 

The axe of the executioner is held high and the arms are raised!

 

Why shalt we remember?

 

The cost of those who have come before us

 

Having been dutifully paid

 

To make this world a better place

Thwack! The executioner attacks!

Grace!

The Socratic Method

Think outside of the box!
Identify the reasoning
The hidden meanings
Of the fox

Question all the truths you have been told!

Taken for granted in economic political and social modes!

The Socratic Method
The Method of Elenchus
Cornel West brain-trust

Protect as ritually ingrained

Unconsciously

As is each morns errand

Of putting your shoes on
Aft your socks!
