A gracious, shrewd commander,

He was one of America’s best.

His courage and his honesty

Raised him up above the rest.

Now is the time to pass the torch

To a sharper generation,

To keep alive his legacy

And take forward a great nation.

For spiteful, ugly ideas tread

Upon Washington’s hallowed ground.

The politics of angry lies

Risks engulfing all around.

serving consecutive life sentences
three meals,
the confines of jail time
three strikes,
and they are never letting you get out
they throw the book at you
like a caged animal
preying,
...as it lands on a page that says
a message from god
sins written on — listed off, and then
sent across the hall to your distant friend again

a life of recycling license plates

Middle Americans, in their homely way,

Are often overheard to say:

'I was just goofing around.'

They goof and they goof and they goof,

And sometimes they goof a little more.

And then we get Donald Trump.

(Up to August 2023, there have been SIX evidence-free attempts in the US to impeach President Biden. Each time Donald Trump is accused of a crime, his friends call for the impeachment of the prosecutor. Where will it all end?)

Impeach! Impeach! Impeach! Impeach!

All those who govern, judge or teach.

Impeach the man, impeach the boy,

The redwood tree, the cuddly toy.

The lights go on

And the darkness slips away, from

The podium

The Twitter fueled hate

The stockpiling of lies, we thought it was too late

But it Brings a better day

Brings a better day

Brings a better day

A tombstone is lifted

And people can now breath

Not suffocating from insanity

And his personal greed

It brings a better day

Brings a better d...

Uninvited Squatter Amerigo

Delivered disease

Dumped some beads

Did misdeeds

and had a Grand Old Party.

An incubus descended,

and Trumpeted its coarse

of groin grabbing ostentation

to degraded, deep, deceit.

When finally ejected

there remained a steaming turd,

in a lap of soiled clothing

impossible to purge.

TRIGGER WARNING: contains profanity and quoted use of racist language

What Have You Got?

What have you got

When you haven’t got a tweet

That will work on the masses

And keep them off the street

When your corrupt policies

Are all laid bare

And the people are as unruly

As your fake blonde hair

What have you got

When it all goes South

In pillow case ...

USA

Empty crucible

Once full of righteous fire

Now just grey ashes

The snake rears its head

Striking blindly at targets

That are imagined

Adopts power stance

Arms crossed - closed for argument

Pin head and big mouth

Safety Off

The FBI and the CIA got ‘em

Good ‘ol boys in the KKK got ‘em

Even Doris Day got ‘em

But it don’t make ‘em safe

Kids in their daddies cars got ‘em

Rednecks in Dallas bars got ‘em

Sheriffs with tin stars got ‘em

But it don’t make ‘em safe

Awe inspired
While the whole world was
Expecting a
Brilliant lady
In a white-house
Drawing a blank
It witnessed a
Clown in a Farce
House,where
With the rob of Democracy
Takes stage Autocracy!

If spoken must
Be the truth
The revolting unfolding
Augurs ill to the youth,
The successors,
The task forces of
A given nation,
Who deserves
A better attention
To take the nation

Conniving madness-
ever in the wings- 
has come centre stage 
strutting with a fringe
as a stick
with which to stir 
a pot of bile and fear
whose drips and spills
point towards
a new strategy:
suicide
disorder
and self harm
that hang about
on every corner
on every farm
as wild seeds
are privately sown
in a different time
and every home.
