Saturday Night after 9/11...

.


Union Square Park -
not too far from Ground Zero
thousands of candles

mourners walk between flowers
cell phone photo journalists



the armory's walls -
little boy tries to help
by pointing at picture

asks me if I've seen her
then his mom leads him away



soon after 9/11 -
mocking peace sign's slogans
in the empty bar

MAD man screams LIBERAL
comes at me with FIST raised



misunderstanding
sarcasm enraged him
- ready for a fight

patron intervenes in time
for me to clear the air



after 9/11 -
an angry man
wants millions KILLED

Outlaw Valentine's Day...

.


here’s an absurd thought -
your Supreme God says
outlaw Valentine's Day

confiscate ALL red roses
keep men and women apart

Mother and young son...

.


mother and young son
frolic with the dolphins
- magical Christmas

dolphins circle the shallows
where the humans stand amazed

Outlaw Christmas...

.


absurd thought -
God of the Universe says
outlaw Christmas

don't upset atheists
makes them question their faith



absurd thought -
God of the Universe hates
Christmas celebrations

leads to Muslim apostates
who then get death threats



MERRY HOLIDAYS
we all have our special ones
drink responsibly

world economy depends
on massive celebrations



for the holidays
we must get together
- before they are over

ancient feelings
days will get longer again

The Dentist's Chair

.


While sitting in the dentist’s chair,
It just seemed so very unfair;
The doctor had no more gas,
So time would not easily pass,
And this gave me quite a big scare.

This and the previous prompted by Mad Kane.


If You Were President?

. . .


If you were President
in the big White House
with the big metal fence
you would be the resident.

If you were President
you would give big speeches
could eat the best peaches
and you wouldn't pay rent.

If you were President
men would persuade you
and dissuade you
try to shape your intent.

Like with all Presidents
men would lie for you
and die for you
and make your arguments.

If you were President
people would listen to you
clap and cheer for you
but some would dissent.

As with all Presidents
men would shill for you
and kill for you
apprise you of developments.

If you were President
men would blame you
and try to shame you
when caught in an incident.

If you were President
people would hear you
many would fear you
and what you represent.

If you were President
it would tend to seem unreal
no matter how you'd feel
you'd still be President...

Eternal source...

eternal source
from which everything comes
- someday returns

mother of ten thousand things
some folks call it The Tao
