the magic forest
could not be found - so i wept
in the gloomy shade
---------------
january
if i were a stone
might i send a prayer to live
... there comes a rumbling
my inner donald
conflicts with my better half
the battle rages
-----
the power to rule
extort and destroy passes
to oligarchy
perhaps we should ask
of the worlds richest persons
.... define efficient
-----
(the inaugeration)
even i was shocked
this skunk of a president
raping the nation
who is there to doubt
the emperors new clothes shine
like the golden dawn
-----

when my tire goes flat
i find the hole and fix it
so it will hold air
---------------
february
risen from the deeps
the tentacles of dark state
strangle the nation
no nobility
of thought - no sense of purpose
for humanity
trump seditionists
attack the wrong free country
- they will not prevail
-----
raise your words - not voice
it.s the rain that grows flowers
not thunder - rumi
-----
(the whale)

-----
low life in high place
prez extorts ukraine who fights
a dangerous foe
only putin would
blow up a nuke reactor
- the friend of our prez
-----

---------------
march
the politics gene
maddening itch just beyond
reach of the fingers
-----
clueless president
pls call gamblers anon now
huge losses ahead
master of one skill
how to make the nation small
a petty fiefdom
-----
the value of democracy

-----
a house divided
cannot stand - they who divide
seek our destruction
none love our country
like immigrants breathing free
this i know is true
our greatest resource
is our people - only fools
fail to nourish them
-----
how does this make sense -
spark trade wars with friend and foe
and spit in the wind
doge with your great wealth
match your words to deeds - repay
the damage you cause
when joe mccarthy
attacked the military
his luck too - ran out
the breakers of dreams
- promise a good life paid for
by the dispossessed
bending the tall tree.s
as i gaze through my window
the winds blow unseen
---------------
april

tyranny is not
for me - i druther have say
than rule by gunpoint
-----
declaration of freedom

we shall dismantle
the dark state - lowly passions
don.t rule free people
signed
the people of the 21st century
-----
genius president
bullies and threatens greenland
- loses a good friend
winners and losers
populate the earth only
in deluded minds
---------------
may
no retribution
when defense secretary
leaks secrets...uh oh
plan proceeds apace
to weaken and dummify
our nations people
-----

"trouble in river city"
treason starts with t
and rhymes with p that stands for
the presidency
-----
to my beggars bowl
a heart and soul my master
has given to me
everlasting race -
this is how the race is won
- passing the baton
---------------
june

donald stop - turn ye
to face your inner demons
- you are being tapped
-----
M_ake A_merica
G_o A_way - united states
now a police state
when congress cowers
to impeach the president
the nation will judge
advice to soldiers
- the chain of command stops at
the constitution
---------------
july
the death of diplomacy
(press browser backarrow to return here)
-----
shake your head and weep
there are no second chances
to redo the past
p.brained and brainwashed
- while life passes in a flash
much of it we waste
-----

as support plummets
american gestapo
gets massive funding
---------------
august
the undecided
are they who decide the way
of the world to come
the blind may not see
who the cells are built to hold
- they are meant for thee
there are some who glut
on hate - some of themselves do
better persons make
-----
as our homes swelter
and the forests burn - think of
the crops in the field
chickenshit congress
and sleepy supreme judges
- .sieg heil. dopey don
---------------
september
intimidation
that is the future for .us.
in the days of trump
will a fresh wind blow
to sweep the acrid vapors
of the president
---------------
october
health care - the red line
against his treasonous wars
which trump must not cross
-----
thespian i yam
when my tales of make believe
are performed on stage
only the woke see
the beauty of their lands
is being proscribed
in all the prez does
his imprimatur is stamped
with the kiss of death
--------------- nov
the great debate
g-d, the president,
and conscience, had a meeting
to debate what.s great
all of creation
is my paintbrush - said the lord
but the prez said no
only humans count
and them i can mold like clay
said the president
conscience said nothing ..
she arose and left the room
and all was darkness
-----
justices supine
whose court brings hardship and grief
hide yourselves - resign
bring order and law
that.s the purpose of your court
- not lawless order
