This is a parody of To be or not to be from Hamlet by William Shakespeare. I may go to a hockey game tonight.
So many familiar personalities come, stay, then go in this reality Watched as backstabbers escape but just know they will be denied at heavens gate. So appealed at peoples rat race, pulling others down to climb up the corporate ladder to b
My Son coming from leave from the Army for the first time. His Step Mom got the video surprise on Utube, I found out he was home on facebook like everybody else... I cried for days...
This was inspired by the Twas the night before Christmas....... I changed the majority of thewords. Used a few from the original. Im not posting this to say its mine, so I dont know who to get permission from.....but hope you like this anyway.
R.O.S.E For i am the Shepherd for the people with no leader to grace, this promised land on which i stand chosen by the sealer of fates. No invasion or persuasion by a serpent or snake, the wicked fell the dragons tell is of subduction and hate. T
I bought my first tickets to a Brewers game and spent about three hours trying to figure it out, cash is way, way easier!
I have written so many poems about war. They are all in abstract forms. This is one of the only rhymed piece I have done. I hope it gives a clear message how brutal and heinous war is.

What is real wealth? Money is nice, but peace and happiness go a long way too.
I was watching some old clips of Ross Perot and his main push was to reduce the national debt which was four trillion in 1992. I have heard nada on this issue from any major candidate.
The money that is stolen daily by many citizens of this country and others who are rewarded for stealing by coming here has this country and it's people losing their quality of life. I just wish someone would stop this theft.
YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE
Need I explain?
To Lord belongs the lands we lease In His forests we cut the trees We own His rain we tax His wind From farmers we collect the fees We are the ones who "moved your cheese" Sucked your blood like the fleas He who objects we lock in jail And s
Destructive imitations of what's real, Corporate companies make a secret deal... Broadcasting lies to control the mind, Hind the truth so none shall find... They work to diminish our vibration, Bloodthirsty men that rule this nation...
You need look no farther than the mirror to see why we have had such a bad history of really bad leaders.
Just making it clear who I am
Why do we claim we are perfectly sane while feeling the madness of feeling no pain killing each other and killing for gain we're destroying ourselves and dying in shame
Taken from expirence.
Fear Led me D O W N A long road Filled with danger Alone I relied on the word Of a Stranger Stupid is What stupid does Now I “PLEAD” So I can just Wake up Nightmares Fantasies False hopes Dreams Our reality Is se
Hold up in the storm comrades
Some of the advertisements I see on TV are pretty aweful. One of the worst is for ASPCA, who gives 1/10 of one percent to the poor dogs they claim to care about.
Trump has become like a swear word in this country. There are many who hate him, and many who love him. I wonder if Kanye West loves all the extra money in his pockets from Trump's tax cut. I'll bet that's the reason.
Biden and the farcical media
Its time to wake up...
For those who remember the troubles of Northern Ireland and lived through this phase an insight into those who were sent on the whim of the political regimes of the time. This poem was in part a collaboration with Tar (Robert) we both know the stresses relating to being there (Falklands & Vietnam) and was hoping to bring about a tale of fears and scares that still haunt us to this day, maybe we will complete if our sanity holds.
A FAMOUS LAWN TENIS FRIEND WON A TROPHY JUST AFTER NINE ATTEMPTS
Men don't cry. Some do, not many. Ithought how excruciating to pretend you don't hurt for that is when it hurts most. "Cry and you cry alone, But laugh and the world laughs with you '
furlough We walk the walk every day in the trenches dealing with attitude, drugs, and sometimes lack there of. We hug when needed and scold way too often we parent... every day. We come to work when sick because it is easier than paperw

Just my sounding off at this stupid political regime this country has the so called House of Commons has reverted to the Cromwellian era when the rich controlled the state.

Nom-nom.
Parody of George Thorogoood's Bad To The Bone. I saw protesters last weekend supporting Ukraine, and I stand with them.
Trying to describe in a few words the 2-tier nature of uk society at the present time.... those who service a corporate machine and those who live with no home thanks to its greed...
This economy has me concerned, but not enough to go for a walk, these cars are a lot of fun!
Just Saying... Just Truth!
Really enjoyed the ice dancing in Beijing, and those guys are strong holding up partners with one hand, even if they weigh only 50 kg its amazing to see. I'd struggle with 10kg over my head!!
Whether you make a dollar or a billion we are 100% human. Most wars are caused by greed, fear, or power yet thousands of lives are lost due to wars. Does anyone see spoils from a victory? Or do we sacrifice lives for something the public sees no benefits. Why is war the first option? Why are we not able to see things from the others point of view?
It can be the smallest bite to eat Or the oldest shoes on our feet We act as if thees things are nothing Others would do anything for our waste But thats something we choose not to face Why cant we tell people the real story A man can eat a bur
Listening to Hugh Masekela's Stimela, one of my favourite jazz compositions, the song is basic enough being just two chords but the trumpet playing is out of this world.
I wrote this poem early part of this month as a blog posted on my website. It's a common sense/lash out at the president's most harshest critics and haters. These people seem to criticize everything that he does. As an independent, but more over to the base of the conservative side of the political spectrum, I agree/disagree on certain things that the president have done but I'm willing to give him time and show him respect like I did with former president Bush. Bashing just to be bashing and engaging in double standards towards him and not with other past presidents is not constructive criticism. What these people need to understand that this type of behavior is Only making themselves look seriously misinformed and ignorant, not the president!
