I just don’t understand it
All the hate and misery
The greed and the corruption 
It makes no sense to me. 

He’s a Psychopath, a Narcissist 
It’s time to rein him in
The crimes that he’s committed
Are blatant, hateful, mortal sins. 

Murdering, cheating, lying
He’s evil to the core 
Yet, Republicans support him
What are they vying for?

Rape and child molestation
Just a few of his guilty pleasures
He’s a sexual deviant, for sure
Hardly,a national treasure. 

Gluttony, greed and jealousy
Dominate his heart and mind
A vindictive bully, a taker
He has more than crossed the line. 

The Democrats are powerless 
No one is stopping him
They talk it up, they complain
But, he’s at it again and again.

Wreaking havoc in our country
Wants to dominate worldwide
There is no peace agreement
All he does is tell us lies.

He’s a psychopath, he’s evil
Why can’t you see the truth?
He’s bent on taking over
What are we going to do?

Please take me for an ice cream
A cookie will not do
You can have some coffee
They’ll make some fresh for you. 

No, not strawberry or chocolate 
Hazelnut or Rocky Road
Not Coconut or  Blueberry 
Banana or Pistachio. 

I just want vanilla 
In a cup, not in a cone
With lots of rainbow sprinkles
Maybe we can take some home.

A double scoop,  if you don’t mind
I’ll sit right here and wait
Nothing like it in the world
Their ice cream is so great!

I’ll get some extra napkins 
We can even sit outside
They have tables, chairs and benches
And, they make their own french fries. 

Gotta know Ice Cream’s my passion
It’s my favorite dessert treat 
I would rather go for ice cream
Than eat vegetables and meat. 

So if you have a craving
And you want that sugar high
You can take me to my favorite place
Come on, let’s take a ride.

Hard to watch you suffer
Feel so helpless and afraid 
Stand beside your bedside
Watch you slowly slip away.

Talk of your cremation
Your ashes in a jar
Don’t want to think about it
All of this is too bizarre. 

A man of such great stature
With such an interesting background
All the marvelous undertakings
You have certainly been around. 

All the famous, the notorious 
The rich, the good, the bad
The memories to cherish 
Of the awesome life you’ve had.

Rubbing elbows with the in crowd
Keeping secrets …. more or less
Making conversation
With the worst and very best. 

All the years we’ve been together
The best love I’ve ever known
Can’t imagine life without you
I don’t want to be alone. 

What we have together 
The bond between us two
Is something  rare and special
Can’t imagine losing you. 

The morphine given prn
An attempt to stop the pain
A comatose existence
Such a sad and brutal shame. 

So surreal, so cold, so sterile
IV lines, and EKG’s
All the noise abruptly silenced
Now turned off, we wait and see.

You need to find your bearings
Try and focus, stay on track 
If not, you’ll be misguided
And unable to turn back.

In a world of misdirections
With so many obstacles
Anything can lead your heart astray
Anything is possible.

Hunker down, before the wind blows
Steady now, just stay the course
Don’t be enticed to  give in
Don’t be coerced or forced. 

The magic of the moment
That twinkle in her eye
She’ll use it every single time
On every single guy. 

She will wrap you round her finger
Take what she wants or needs
You’ll be helpless, she will drain you
She would love to watch you bleed.

Every penny in your pocket
Every single credit card
She’ll max you out, then laugh about
How your life is now so hard. 

She is crafty, she’s a trickster 
She’s a master of her trade
Don’t think you can outsmart her
Beware and be afraid.

Needing validation 
An attaboy or two
You come across so needy
Need to change your attitude.

They’ll be plenty of naysayers
In the peanut gallery
Pay no attention to them
They don’t pay your salary. 

Let them talk and let them gossip
You’ve got better things to do
Become a better person
Take better care of you. 

Don’t need someone’s opinion
To make or break your day
Stand up and do things for yourself
Reject the things they say. 

Be confident, more self assured 
Take the initiative 
Don’t give in to self remorse
Don’t be so negative. 

Mental blocks and obstacles 
Banish from  your mind 
Cast aside all self doubt
Be positive this time. 

Stop looking for approval
Just hold  your head up high
Don’t need a pat on your back
Don’t let life pass you by. 

Use your inner strength and faith
No need to ask for help
You can make it on your own
Just do it for yourself.

Is anyone really normal
Or do we all just have a glitch?
Some people lie, don’t tell the truth 
Some tattle tale and snitch. 

Some brag about their money
Their fancy cars or their new house
Some want to project an image
That’s what they’re all about.  

Some hoard old antique bottles
Tarnished knives , some spoons and forks
Magazines and old newspapers
Old placemats and old wine corks. 

Some think they are superior 
They  look down their nose at you
They think they’re so much better
But we know …. their poop  stinks, too. 

Some have a habit of repeating
They repeat every word they say
They think that what they’re  saying
Needs to see the light of day. 

Some are “braggarts” and  “name droppers”
Projecting they have clout
They try their best  … want to impress
They think they’re cool, no doubt. 

Learn to tolerate, use less judgement
When you first meet someone new
Everyone ‘s has hang ups
Everyone …. including you.

Can’t imagine being intimate
Then never seeing you again
Shared my deepest, darkest secrets
Said that we were more than friends.

Lulled into a world of fantasy
Sucked into the abyss
Was lured into the darkness
With one long and lustful kiss. 

Lying naked for the taking
Yours alone to touch …. to hold
A vulnerable position
My being …. to behold. 

All consuming trust and innocence
Led to my own demise 
The bond we shared together 
Was built upon your lies.

No serious intentions 
No plan to follow through
Living for the moment
Now, there’s nothing I can do. 

The shame, remorse  …. unyielding
You made a fool of me
After everything I did for you
Now you ignore me, totally. 

It’s not easy to imagine
Someone could be so cold, so cruel
I should have seen it coming
Should have never trusted you. 

Vanished over night
No forwarding address
Just a note that said, 
“My Darling, I really could care less!”

Irritants and allergies
Creep inside my lungs
They arrive, though uninvited
And, won’t leave until they’re done. 

They cause a painful, scratchy throat
A clogged and stuffy nose
My breathing becomes difficult
That’s just the way it goes. 

I sneeze, I whine, I blow my nose
More than  a dozen times
But, nothing stops my itchy eyes
Or, this dreadful cough of mine.

Tea with honey helps a bit
It soothes my painful throat
Cough drops from the pharmacy
And, wearing a warm coat. 

But, weeks go by without relief
I still feel so bad, so sick
No matter what I try to do
I’m afraid …. I’m stuck with this.

Dust seems to be the culprit
Not much that I can do 
I wear a mask, I clean the blinds
And, take off my street shoes.

You’ve got to  keep  the bugs away 
Do anything you can
And,  be aware of dusty vents
When you turn on that fan.

You pay to store nonsense
Nik naks … galore
Papers in boxes
Piled up on the floor. 

The mangers, the donkeys 
You only need one
Mary gave birth
To only one son. 

Who needs three Mary’s 
three Joseph’s, six cows
 12 camels, or raccoons
Four goats and a sow?

A ton of old bedding
That you’ll  never use
A large crate of cd’s  
And, worn out old shoes.

The paintings, the books
The ribbons  and bows
Photos of people 
You don’t even know.

The hoarding, so selfish
You just can’t let go
The ticket stubs saved
From your favorite shows.

Your stuff sits in storage
Year after year
You’re paying a fortune
This much is clear.

The clothes and the hats
That you’ll never wear
Should give them away
This doesn’t seem fair.

Why? Ask yourself ….
Do you want to do this?
You’re wasting your money
On things you won’t miss.

Laughter and giggles
Screams in the air
No fear, no concerns
Loves lizards and bears.

Fearless, courageous 
Loves to climb trees
Wants to climb to the top
Cause she just wants to see. 

Doesn’t care about eating
Doesn’t  like vegetables 
Eating her peas
Makes her so miserable.

Ice cream and candy
Cookies  and cake
Who needs potatoes
Baked chicken or steak?

Chocolate syrup
With cherries on top
She loves  her sugar 
Yes, she loves it a lot!

No, she can’t stop
No time for a nap
She is too busy 
Doing this, doing that.

A dog and a ball
Her idea of fun
She wants to go out 
To play in the sun. 

Hours and hours
Of running around 
So hard to relax
So hard to calm down.
