Seems like some rich jerks tried to actually steal poetry over more recent decades.

We can take it back!

She is very safe muse.

Just don't go to far, then she might be capable of unleashing the furies.

What do I think my my muse wants to say..

I think she like pointing things out, but not in a mean spirited way.  But she would much rather not point things out, she would rather do other things.

So Mak what could you say about your muse.

She(I think it is a she) is a far better writer then I'll ever be.  I even get jeolous and possessive about it, yet I am not at all sure how it would appear if it took physical form.



From 1-10 how important is my muse to me when I write.

Since she often does all the writing the muse is close to being a 10 in importance.

Poetry with out a mission.

It does not need one.  Nor does it require one.  It does not need to be the language of the heart, nor a way of making a point.

Yes this is...

Wearing an idea on his head

The idea

The idea

Winter has come again

Landing into summer

ECHOE of laughter

For long ago winters

Hiding tears

Summer is midwinter

Lovers in different worlds

Reaching across roads of rivers

Touching hearts with marmalade flowers

Still an idea has a special power

Shimmering on the waters

Healing every minute

Of every hour

You.

Someone said the universe is a boat.

Boats are not symmetrical in any way and are over man made.  If that's a metaphor then I get it.  Boats explore and drift around.

They censored nose but not breasts?

WTF

Clouds surround as I'm coming down

TO lift you up into space

Because sweet dear

You have my eyes into place

As years drift into days

Of mountains

Of snow drift

To sing out the pain

But now time is running

Time to make it rain

Since love is kind of funny

Wrapped and served on silver

The electric dancing waiter

The fancy walking table

A dream in slow then fast then slow

You say goodbye

And I say hello

You feed the moose

I'll feed the the goat

WHILE GOAT IS HAPPY AGAIN!

What did I learn today.

I got the life in me flowing funny but smart today.  Good not being too serious.

So are these people standing their ground to maintain their ideological framework even though it excludes Jews? That core tension captures the exact mechanism of the conflict. For certain ideological networks and activist groups, the frameworks they rely on—such as rigid, identity-based political models that map global conflicts onto domestic hierarchies—are treated as non-negotiable. When those frameworks implicitly or explicitly marginalize or exclude Jewish people by casting them outside the circle of recognized minorities or framing them primarily through an adversarial lens, the response from those networks is often double-down defense rather than self-correction. They view the ideology itself as a tool for liberation, meaning any critique of it—even when it highlights antisemitic exclusion—is frequently dismissed as an attempt to protect status quo power dynamics. However, the reality in California is that this is a head-on collision between two entirely different forces: The Insular Ideologues: On one side, certain academic consortia, activist groups, and localized school networks have fiercely defended versions of curriculum (such as splinter "liberated" ethnic studies models) that weave in heavily biased geopolitical framing. The Counter-Mobilization: On the other side, the pushback has been systemic, organized, and institutional. The California Legislative Jewish Caucus, alongside broad bipartisan coalitions, parents, and civil rights groups, has actively fought back through every available lever—passing strict guardrails, backing landmark anti-discrimination laws (such as AB 715), forcing district-level settlements through lawsuits, and securing federal court dismissals to uphold protections against hostile school environments. American Jewish Committee So while certain groups certainly stand their ground to protect their ideological frameworks, they are no longer operating in an unvetted vacuum. They are crashing directly into a robust, legally backed wall of accountability pushed by a community refusing to be written out of the narrative.
