Wow, your words hit hard, capturing the essence powerfully. Have you ever thought about turning these thoughts into a rap? Not gonna lie but I feel like you will do great, I can imagine it already. Your words are powerful and show a clear portrayal of the current state of affairs. I enjoyed it, great work!

[keith]

i do appreciate the visit and comment
RAP? no i'm just angry and able to speak my mind!

BOOM!

Humor is one of the most mature defence mechanisms and practically one of the only ways to mentally deal with what is happening in the world right now. I found your review on a poem about trump and decided to give your page a read. Honestly, i just feel bad for the people who are in the states. Democracy is crumbling everywhere because both the ends of the spectrum are getting more extreme. I consider myself left leaning but there are some leftist ideas that i just can't get behind and so i try to keep politics out of my daily life (like an ostrich burying its head in the ground lol) because hearing about these things just makes me feel incredibly powerless and trapped.

humor keeps me going ... it is a great mental exercise
and who can pass on a new hopefully funny antidote
as for our grand debacle of a failed coup attempt
our fake news stolen election political persecution racism major cost of living in the last 10 years
a failed assassination attempt
watergate pizzagate donniegate civil rights violations supreme courts disrespect for women
(still NO ERA) the list goes on and on
it never stops
for me the starting point of my purposeful quest for answers began with the iron curtain cuban missile crisis kennedy assassination virt nam kent state

this grand shining light on the hill has always been divided has been rode hard hung up wet divided rfk shooting martin luther king assassination malcom x assassination
who else?

we have always been a land of many serious problems

a fascist platform run by a king/diktator is most likely to happen

it is a struggle cooping and maintaining some positivity and this is where humor saves the dat

there my soapbox speech is done for the moment

i do appreciate your read and leaving comment
come on back kick your shoes off sit a spell
i got more HA!

A very strongly worded poem, but penned with humour. The world is in a very precarious situation at the moment, and come November it may indeed collapse. Time will tell. What will be WILL be! I love the final line "No bent knee ever". No submission! Well done, Keith. That is the side we are all on! Great write, thought provoking, powerful work! Love the very complementary graphic. Excellent choice! Thank you for sharing...

comic relief but based on the ironies of life
smart a*s as the parents would say

sarcasm is a great tool but can be dangerous as well

a life suppressed is not freedom

I remember those days very well also, Keith. We thought we knew everything! A gift of youth I think...

[keith]

my parents weren't real bright ... very intelligent yes
good sense NO! HA! admittedly i was more than a hand full

[Mariej]

Me too! I arrived late in my parents' lives, Keith. I ask for their forgiveness from Spirit almost every day, bless them. Thank you for sharing, Keith...
