On the West’s Response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine I have a question: is it wrong to fight tyranny? I think how the West has treated Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as – weak. That is, issuing sanctions, but still buying Russian oil? You don’t continue to feed the war machine you’re trying to stopContinue reading “03.07.2022”

I can not speak for another human being, I can only speak for myself. I’m nearly always sad seeing someone homeless, or emotionally disturbed. Not just about their human condition, but also my own. I’m always plagued by the thought “why doesn’t someone help them out?” Then of course I how I can help. ToContinue reading “03.04.2022”
Don’t blink, a poem
leaves changing their colors again but I haven’t moved. My feet have sunken into ground, My teeth turned brown with rot. I only closed my eyes for a moment, now everything under the sun is old.

Troubling times…. I know my lack of hope for my country is low, so forgive me. This sometimes distract me from writing, and in bordom, I wonder dark paths. I mean, when you bring your own light.

State Issued Chastity Belts, A poem.
Why are some women wearing State issued chastity belts? Cowardly men, holding those keys. Question these men, They through a bible at you. But as you duck the last verse thrown, you see the reasons: These men fear loss of power and status, an inability to adapt and not recognizing women as full human beings,Continue reading “State Issued Chastity Belts, A poem.”
Is it getting dryer? A poem
Can lakes disappear, water as far as the eye can see? If lake Michigan drys up, will we see the Ella Fitzgerald? And Lake Meade has a dirty bath ring, lower by stories. Which would become scarce first, the water or the electricity? What of Vegas? But no one seems worried.
It’s OK to cry, a poem.
I cry about,the amount of polyesterin my clothing. It is often cheaply made,Overly glossy,and likely to catch fire. I cry about pass foolishness,often forgetting the wisdom thatit taught me. But I don’t know my beginning or end, and thats OK. I like to keep my head small, to ensure that I can fit through theContinue reading “It’s OK to cry, a poem.”
Wow, Civilization is still here?
Thousands of Russian troops and armor, on the Ukrainian border like some Civilization game. The US, distracted from within by it’s lack of honor, citizens losing their rights like rotting fruit. The homeless grow in numbers, as more chairs disappear and the music stops. Billionaires buy more super yachts and bunkers escape to, But thereContinue reading “Wow, Civilization is still here?”
Basic vs. Premium, a poem
All the cows and sheep, All the grains and wool are gone. Then we ate wolves and crows, then all that was left was carbon. We could not eat our money, I mean, we ain’t animals! Basic carbon is for the poor, Premium is for the wealthy. Basic carbon looks like two-day old oatmeal. PremiumContinue reading “Basic vs. Premium, a poem”
