Stand up strong

Via the Flock

Let it be known

Tis no fear!

I will endure being socked!

Tender

Gentle

Begone!

With these lily-livered arrears!

Gentlemanly

Polite

Respectful

A boxer can shed tears?

Not me

I intend

To let others see

Know

My toughness

Inner roughness!

The true hombre to be

A stamp of manhood!

Throughout my neighborhood

I hath faithfully carried

Since my teens

My heart shalt firmly

Boldly decree

No matter the cost

Paid to family

Society

Nor me!

I will remain hardened

Till the last!

Ensuring my masculine virility

Bleeds!

Sedulously

The money man

Hath devised

What he surmised

As a clever plan

Not as Fyodor Dostoevsky’s

Notes from the Underground man

Convince the toiling laborer

And his poor friends

He would bear fruit

Throughout their barren lands

With enticingly prevaricating words

Boasting of good works to come

Dreams of grandeur to blossom

Shalt he convince the masses?

Only He

Is the rightful ruler

The One

Who can!

Whilst his double-consciousness

Unveils him

Certainly

Most assuredly

Undoubtably!

As The Flim-Flam Man

A rhymist reading the news

No blues!

I read

Every weekend

The Wall Street Journal

The NY Times

This information I gather

Opinion pieces I’d rather

Center my thoughts upon

Current political ideas

Future current event rhymes

Information in the new era

Can feel as racing forward

On The Audobon!

Conspiracy theories

Rabbit holes

Alternate facts

Are not traveled paths

I have explored upon

Journalism and books

Varied rich information sources

Help me to choose a side

Formulate an integral sophisticated literate guide

Walk a mile in my shoes

Hit the fork

Pick a route

Go the distance

Then compute

Start from A

Then get to B

Along the way

Helps you to see

Movement sways

Possibility

Intrinsically

Sets you free!

Let go the distance!

Be your plea

As you climb upon the trees

Eat the fruit

That you can reach

Be kind to those you meet

Go the distance

You will succeed

Let go the distance be your creed

Build a better society

Go the distance!

As a seed

Grow infinitely

Ready to pull the weeds

Making flowers for the bees

Healing comes to those who seek

Along the way you will experience grief

Never fear

Take the lead

The One

Proceeds

Go the distance!

Morning dawning
People yawning
Trees a-fawning
Light replaces night
Sun sets East
Alert the beast
Prey regaining sight
Hustle
Bustle
Move the muscle
Machinations come to life
Birds a-cooing
Insects moving
Flowers color wildlife
Coffee brewing
Balcony chair
Soothing
Humming
An anxiety relieving lullaby
Awake
Alive
The Universe strives
To present
A brand new day

Hurrah bourgeois
Voila!

Towards the pyramidion

Majority of its mass

Close to the ground

Monumental

Built for Emperors and Kings

Throughout the world

A symbol of man-made ingenuity

Of which doth

The One

The Universal Seer

Seeker beseech?

For the working class people!

Down-trodden poor

Women

Men

Children

The elderly

And the babies

Via a social uplifting economy!

A sparkling fat middle class

As it postulates

Celestial fates

In Deuteronomy

And all around of me!

Pyramids are entombed

With massive income inequality!

Living on in exalted infamy

The economy!

Says the feminine deity

A social net for the poor shows piety

Must be built as a worker’s diamond!

Not a pharaoh’s pyramid

With a burgeoning middle class for posterity
