On the welcome wagon I bumped into a chicken

it gave me some radioactive eggs

Something for the road

It said

So the chicken was handsome

From eating uranium

My very favorite chicken

In this very odd kingdom

Where I ran into a frog

Eating a bowl full of flies

Lazy they were

So they burped in the sun

Where the strange grandmother lived!

The end.

Is the Buttacracy expanding and getting larger?

you tell me!

A faulty memory,,

not perfect or for a fool

Memories can chill

Hard places with no escape

Biting with bitter pain

You never know

You never know

As memories like mold

Change their form

And seem so dangerous

With tremendous power

Scare from hour to hour

The illussions of intelligence

It is just an illusion

Such imagination!

We may not be exactly equal, but treat people with the same respect you would like yourself.

Ethics 101

I would love to see more g rated stuff injected into the "adult" world.

Are adults so sure that they are being adults anyway?  Please define the adult world as not sex and violence or taboos or cussing or making it big etc...

We live on a sunshine planet,

so be a little sunshine

At least every so often

To hug

And to laugh

As you must be special
Anyone

Seriously

This flaw will be the death of us

Remember the specialness

Give up on being the best

We are all more human

More than it seems

A sunshine love machine

Or jelly beans!

So get your special on!

My country

At this moment

I do not know what to make of thee

Are you snarky and sneaky

Or are you big hearted and amazing


I love my country

I get to love it more

It has its mystery

Yet chains are wiggling

I know something is wrong

And I can't make it right myself

I pray

Though I am not religious.

Try a one month commitment to kindness!

Modern elections make torture chambers during the dark ages seem tame in comparison!

I am strongly opposed to all forms of torture!

And human trafficking!

So to look to the future?

by the end of this year I imagine being able to see the way things are going better.  Just glad to be alive now.  My grandma taught me to be a form of pessimist.  Also to ask the questions that any good pessimist would ask!  Assuming that this sort of pessimism is in hope of optimism.  Assuming that there must be somewhere or somehow that true optimism exists.  This optimism is the diamond emotion, and is considered rare.  The acceptance of a reality with no possibility of optimism is hard to ensure from this perspective.  So pessimistic solutions are desperate ones in which people don't think things through.  A good idea is to live in a balanced state, as it may be difficult to do, difficult enough to matter.
