Juice

Juice

This violence is spreading instead of getting better. I know I won't be taking any trips to Chicago any time soon. This is a parody of a song from the movie soundtrack Juice. It is about four friends and one who enjoys having the power of a gun. He is played by the rapper Tupac who was shot dead on September 7, 1996.

Driving Drunk

Torture Devices

Torture Devices

There were some pretty horrific punishments back in the old days. I wonder if it is not more cruel and unusual to separate a father from his family and throw him away in jail than the old day punishments.

Hate holds me

Hate holds me

To bring the tone and collapse the conversion, Token of the corpse of the tongue, Crave my dagger as I rip you a new hole, As my thunder strikes the sun, Bigoted minds explore my temptress of hate, For those that I condemn and forsake, Br

No Peace

No Peace

Something I began writing last year but as I tend to do, I got side-tracked and didn't finish. It is now done. Written with no offence to anyone and if you have taken offence, chances are you've missed the point.

No More Love

No More Love

The world is on the verge of hell, Undergoing a terrible spell. The Angels weep from heaven above, Watching the world lose all its love. Innocent people have lost their lives All for the greed of the propertied. Wars have ravished any goodnes

Kmart is Closing

Kmart is Closing

Saw two people standing with signs advertising 20% at Kmart today. The wind chill must be below zero. I am suprised they lasted this long. My job was cut two weeks after one of these Walmart superstores opened in 2006. For every one of these Walmarts that open, 300 jobs are cut from the community, and replaced by 330 Walmart jobs that have far lower pay and benefits.

IMPOSSIBILITIES

IMPOSSIBILITIES

Impossibilities are real! The gullible simply deny! tweaked 1/26/18

TIGER FLAWS

TIGER FLAWS

Some thoughts on Tiger Woods... P.S. Where I refer to all the rich and famous..... I am referring to politicians as well... and their use of facade is almost always!

Honest Donald

Honest Donald

Just having some fun with the election. Only four days left of this entertainment.

Internet Set

Internet Set

I wrote this poem in my spare time. I am naturally a deep thinker and when I was young, the Internet did not exist. Neither did mobile phones for that matter. I remember black and white TV in my early childhood. The Internet has opened a new world but in my opinion, there is the good and the bad. Children are more exposed now than ever before to the negative that social networking sites and the harm they can do when it comes to bullying. This is a very important issue which should be controlled by parents and gpvernment bodies and taken seriously. Yes, children will lie about their age and many other things to join facebook and other networking sites but they shouldn't be able to until they reach a certain legal age. Some people have strong characters and simply ignore nasty comments and can handle them. Other people are not so strong and this makes the vulnerable. There are a lot of scammers and wicked people that will not stop at anything to deceive honest people on dating sites or simply steal personal information to put to bad use. There is no point in pretending the Internet is all good because we are all intelligent enough to see what is good and what is not. I hope you enjoy my poem.

Humanitys future

Humanity's future

In honor of a world we once knew which will disappear because of our indifference and nonchalance. It's easier to accept defeat especially for those who are weak.

A Bad Day

A Bad Day

I have the day off today which I am thankful for. There are certainly people with worse days than this. Like George Carlin said, "What do white people have to be blue about? White people have to realize their job is to give people the blues, not to get them."

Black Friday

Black Friday

I was having a bit of a rant at the sad materialistic world we live in

Karaoke

Karaoke

I sing every day in my car. If I had a house I would sing much more, but apartments don't work too well as I like to sing really loud. Most of my songs are pop songs and I try to taylor them to the holidays.

Monsters Among Us

Monsters Among Us

This list goes on and on, there are so many bad people out there doing so many really bad things. I was listening to Jill Stein debate Hillary and Trump on the internet, she was banned from tv.

Prejudice

Prejudice is generated thoughts given strength by a folly of feelings and actions sometimes confirmed by differences, personal experiences,fear and ignorance. Historically our differences has divided us rather than united us, simply because we lack u

Halloween Decoration

Halloween Decoration

I put up my Trump sign yesterday and didn't even have it in the ground when a neighbor asked why a liberal like me would support a man like Trump. I explained it was just a Halloween decoration and later I would be putting up some skeletons and a newspaper dummy around September 15.

Good Ol Shows

Good Ol Shows

This poem refers to The Dukes of Hazard, The Cosby Show, and Looney Tunes characters the love crazed skunk Pepe Le Pew and the Mexican mouse Speedy Gonzalas. These shows are no longer on TV, just DVD. This poem is a parody of the theme song from Dukes of Hazzard.

DVR

DVR

I have really gone a long way from VCR to DVR. No tapes to store and a better image. The time it used to take to fast forward through commercials is a real time saver.

Crazy Crazy and more Crazy

Crazy,Crazy and more Crazy!!!!

I had to write this Poem,because I feel so frustrated being one little drop in a Ocean of 7 billion other,not having any chance to turn the direction.

Rabbit foot as Medicine

Rabbit foot as Medicine!

Frustration about the life,when many Faces and Masks looks to be the accepted trend as normal,together with the playing cards!

Saying It Not Doing It

Saying It, Not Doing It

Just a random list of things that if I could wave a majic wand and make a reality, I would make them really happen.

Another Shooting

Another Shooting

I could go on for a long time on this topic. We had a shooting at a plant in Columbus, Indiana on March 10. An employee shot his boss and then himself. We even had the top safety guy come out and tell us how to protect ourselves if there is an active shooter. Run, hide, and as last resort defend yourself.

Entertain Me

Entertain Me!

It seems we have a lot of stuff out there that makes a lot of money for the corporate elite. They say Trump got billions in free advertising, but how much did he make those networks like CNN? It has gotten to the point that it's all about entertainment, and the issues just don't pay the bills any more.

Jill Stein

Jill Stein

This election has been a lot of fun, but also frustrating. Who to pick? All I know is I've never regretted voting third party. I voted for Ross Perot in 96, Ralph Nader in 2000, and Gary Johnson in 2012.

THAT WAS THE LEAD STORY TODAY

My take on News stations, they are like vultures looking for a corpse

Quotes

Quotes

Just some random quotes I have heard and added to others.

Lines

Lines

Can you find the lines that you seek the ones that can guide you though the lands of deceit the ones that are hard to hold when you are all alone hanging by a thread where common sense is your only friend when you try

Dressed

Dressed

Does honesty and common sense still survive in the crevices and burrows in the concrete jungles where animals are dressed as human where it is the wolves who are kings and the lion is just a flea bitten scabby old cat

Campaign Speech

Campaign Speech

I have been following Trump, Bernie, and Hillary. The latest Trump ad has Hillary barking like a dog. She actually did this at a campaign rally. It would be fun to be president, if you could actually bring about the positive changes I wish for everyone.

I think Canadians got it pretty sweet.

Top 10 Countries

Just wishing I was living somewhere else. Somewhere where there was peace and community.

Bye Bye Bernie

Bye Bye Bernie

A parody of the Everly Brothers Bye Bye Love. Hillary seems to have it in the bag and Trump seems to be there to help her.

All In The Family

All In The Family

I was watching Bernie Sanders go on and on how he was expanding Social Security and free health care for all. This is great, if you are one not working for it.

The forgotten generation

The forgotten generation!

This Poem is about the old generation in Finland,about the People,that faced the war against Soviet Union and the next generation,that is my generation.....we did not start the war,but in the end,they made us Finns the war criminals and they took a lot of Land from us and also we had to pay almost an impossible amount in products,what we was sending with trains to them. We had no choice,as our independence was on stake....12 to 16 hours every day,the food we got with coupons only. We had to put up a completely new industry and thank's to USA,they lend us Money,we was able to do the task. When the last Train went over the border to Soviet Union,we knew,that we had done it and we was a free country and in the same time we had available a heavy industry and we could export and make big profit after that. Finland rose like a Fenix from the ashes and in the next 10-15 years with still hard working People we we made one of the best Countries in the world to live in...we just made it to the top. But little by little,the younger generation,that did not know and did not care about the hardship we older generation had gone trough,just start to destroy the fruits we had done for them and in these days,there are almost nothing left of the brightness from before. All to that,the old generations are now retired and many in old peoples Home,where children have forget them almost completely....many retired people live with a daily porridge and forgotten by them self....all to that, in the old Peoples home,the more weak one are left in alone in the bed for 5-6 days in their own urinate and excrement ....nobody really care about them and one lady show in public how her Father had about 2 inch long nails on his foots.....she also told,that she had change him to different homes several times and in every place,there have been no care. When the Refugees came in,they was giving good food and care,but nobody care about the old People.....they collected Phones,computers and good cloths for the Refugees,but the Old People live with so little social support,that many of them don't have any Phones or for sure no computers....in fact it is so bad situation,that every time I hear about it,I"m in tears. These old People,that faced the almost impossible hardship in the war and soon after that,is again in the end of their life facing similar almost impossible hardship.....many People support heavily the Tomcat refugees,that have run over the border to Finland and when I came up with the opinion in FB,that they should also help and support their own old People in their horrible situation,then they cut me out from their friends list. This is why this Poem realized it self from my Heart and it is telling how I feel about the Fate of the,"Forgotten Generation".

Grafitti

I was watching 187 with Samuel Jackson. Just stepping into the shoes of some of these teenagers who feel the need to spray paint on public buildings. I just found some on the library here in town today.
