To these backyard picnics.
Under joyful Sun and eating Bar-B-Que.
Discussing world events,
After the games we watched are through.
Talking about ‘them’
And what they ought to do!
But…
I have a sense we’re the ones being screwed!
By taking daily doses,
Of what’s good for them…
Has had nothing to do,
With either me Or you!
And yet I regret…
Our lifestyles they affect!
Whether we accept that…
Or ‘them’,
That’s a bet neither one of us will pocket!
If he is not elected,Times ahead are going to get a whole lot worse.Based upon who the current world leaders are!And who is capable to deal with them on ‘their’ level!That John Wayne calvary stuff has worked for years!Those folks have not been fed on Hollywood.They do not understand what it is that is expected…
On the wounds of thoseStill reeling from their misdeedsWould not be advantageous for me!Although I am tempted…Don’t get me wrong!But to sing songs of praises,Is a lot less stressful,Than the monotonous blues…Heard ‘crying’ from those folks,On a daily basis!Maybe that’s what they’ve chosen to do,To uncover their own oasis?
Making demands to pleaseAnd satisfy.Without chemistry or understanding my needs,Or even IF you qualify to justify my attention.You expect I should accept this?That is not what I am about!Just as you descended and rolled in…Roll out!
And when I lost you,You left behindA treasure chest of memories!I feel so wealthy!Not only do I have myself…I have so much of you as well!Damn I’m lucky,OR blessed!At this stage in my life…Who has time for semantics? !I would like to think I do,But I’d rather spend those momentsIn total gratitude!
Suited for electing…With an image held as the best.Reflecting a ‘middle-of-the-roadness’With proper etiquette.Making harmless decisions…And giving folks what they expect.Nominated as water walkers,Squeeky clean and free of sin.If they do live in darkness…They may sneak a sip of vodka,Or may not pop shots…Of lemon twisted gin!It’s difficult not to show imperfections,From admiring spying eyes.Microscoping with…
Are taken across bordersIn the hopes of something freshCan be reached.When the newness wears off,Another path is supported in flight.Adding nothing experiencedTo awaken and stop a disturbing appetite.
