Some People

Some people search for that loves dream,
love is definitely not a players game,
whilst others do their best to scheme,
why break others hearts its a shame,

Some people deliberately set out to hurt,
whether its physical or emotional,
treating others like dirt,
everything has to be confrontational,

Some people don't want to know,
hiding behind their veiled photos pane,
all their words are just for show,
nothing to look for, nothing to gain,

Some people are genuine and true,
they have proper feelings and emotions,
these people are the ones that feel loves due,
given the chance will have loves devotions.

Love What You Always Did.

What's my role in this if i'm not making it?
Never ending battle to win it. but win what?

Mainstream is what i duck and avoid,
is that what keeps my mind played like a toy?

Rulers are blind to what they rule,
while society needs another new.

Idolizing the same old thing you "love".
...when there just more on the rise above.

Let the blind be blind,
that's the only way you can shine.

Only the end because that's what your psyche decided, while i'll be the one to end this instead... Remember don't be the one to be blinded.

Are You Impossible?

What you admire to me is expired,
It's sad to see what you looked up to retired.

You set yourself in a set path it seems I can't touch,
Well, have you been all the way to the bottom to embrace and clutch??

Are your eyes set on me like I think.
And for that does your "set path" start to shrink?

I bare through the ignorance to find what I love,
...Someone that can accept me and has the touch of a dove.

Can't extinguish the start much less the end,
everything around me now just seems blend.

I can feel an uprising soon,
something and someone that will send me satisfied to my tomb

Cylce

Who are you to give advice?
When you're also skating on thin ice,

Maybe a lot of times I don't make sense,
but at the end of the day I try my hardest to repent.

Contridicters play their harp,
disapointment in my heart.

Liars somehow to gain trust,
...but why play into the hate and continue to thrust?

We are on giant floating rock in space
no bottom, no top and no gates.

Space continues forever,
the unseens we will never treasure.

The bible to show us,
human being to throw us.

Give recognition for at least something above,
deny, push away you will never feel love

When Wisdom Whispers

Wisdom whispers in your ear
Tells you in a soft voice
All you need to hear
When you make the wrong choice
Let’s make one thing clear
If you only listen to yourself
You don’t have much to fear
Life can throw a few curves
You swing you miss they jeer
And just as quickly you swerve
Hit a home run and they cheer
So…when wisdom whispers in your ear
Let it tell you in the softest tones
Words you will hold so dear

NO AND'S IF'S OR BUT'S #CVI

The 'Left' has reached completely Nuts
it's palpable truth... No And's If's or But's
Whenever they speak they blatantly lie
reality has officially passed them by

Incessant rhetoric is purposeful to divide
nonsense is every word they provide
Wickedness consumes the 'Left's' mind
berate all who dare oppose their kind

The 'Left' has obviously dismissed reason
propaganda more damaging than any season
Media relish exacerbating contentious news
help 'looney liberals' Spin all the 'Rights' views

Treatment of those across the aisle hostile
2016 election turned Demoncrats utterly vile
Everyday they relentlessly Bash our President
ruthless disrespect before White House resident

They sabotage hope for bettering our Nation
while proclaiming to fight for future generation
More ominous than deadliest slithering snake
their insanity surpassed levels sane folks can take

Dems say 'alternative facts' aren't factual in any way
yet News outlets shovel it Twenty Four hours a day
Communist progressives push for Americas' decline
gaslighting essential piece of their wicked design

Establishment Republicans share blame to be fair
what "We The People" want Politicians don't care

Teacher Rant

I hate these kids
This pay I'm getting
What a joke!
There is no respect for teachers
None, zip, nada
How has it gone so bad so fast
It used to be good for teachers
A good pension after 30 years
You could retire in your mid 50's and have about 30 years of good retirement
Teach 30, retire 30, sounded great, right?
Now that has been stripped away to give it to fat cronies like Donald Trump
And don't get me started with these kids
Parents who want to be friends to their kids
Kids being raised by grandparents because their parents chose drugs instead
Kids who do things so disgusting and bullying that redefines cruelty
I should quit, but I have three things that keep me going to this tomb
June, July, and August!

About this poem:
After the school shootings on Valentine's Day, I have been researching teaching and what led to this and many other shootings in our schools. I got out in 96, as I taught and got bulldozed over by those kids every day.

Money

I spend you on pop
I spend you on donuts and cheese curds
My favorite bill is the Andrew Jackson 20 dollar bill
Though he was a really bad man
I have a lot of Washington 1 dollar bills
A few Lincoln 5 dollar bills
An occasional Hamilton 10 dollar bill
For fun I get some Jefferson 2 dollar bills
I keep some quarters with National Parks on them
I keep some Canadian coins too
My favorite is the 2 dollar coin with the polar bear on it
It is silver and gold
I have a few Eisenhower dollar coins
I prefer to spend real money verses credit cards
Real money is easier to keep track of
And I never have to pay interest on it
Credit or cash?
Cash!

About this poem:
I made some money working overtime today, though I'd rather have my time back to do some things that don't cost me a dime, like playing video games or watching my dvrs.

The American Dream

Have you bought, the scheme?
That keeps you in debt, to the 1%
The house, the car.
I want, I want, I want it all!!!
But first I have to pay off, this college Tution course.
25,00.00 in the hole.
I must get a job, to pay it all off.
Sadly there is no job in my field,
This was not apart, of the deal.
They told me to get a education
I would be at the top.
Right now I have to find a job,
If it means, pushing a mop.
One credit card left, I've paid off 3
These interest rates, are killing me.
I wish I took some time to think
Things through.
The white picket fence, if only I knew.
The American Dream, I had to pursue.
A mortgage seemed, so unreal at the time.
That old French word
Mort- dead
Gage- pledge
Plagues, the mind
What was I thinking, IM not free.
In debt, I will forever be.
I bought the dream, red, white & blue
Education, house, car & other things to.
Yes I bought the dream!!!
but they sold me a lie
The American dream, comes with a stiff price.
So before you want a piece of the pie
Remember in debt we trust, is the truth
Behind the lies...
