Colors, Four Year Old Winston, Churchill Thorn, Etiquette Fork, December Moon

FOUR YEAR OLD WINSTON

If when 4 year old Winston
had repeatedly run to his mother
night after night
as she in evening dress
prepared to leave... if
she had picked him up
and read him a bedtime story
rather than handing him
to a maid as he cried...
perhaps ...he would not
have bombed Dresden,
Nuremberg,
the people and animals
of Berlin

THE CHURCHILL THORN

In World War II,
did God select a thorn to remove a thorn?
Churchill the bulldog to remove Hitler
Hitler and Churchill both killed
people, animals and bullfrogs
.. Hitler 'annexed' Austria, invaded Poland..
then Churchill was the first to bomb Germany
before the latter bombed England.
Each bombed the other's children, civilians, zoos,
mammals, birds, reptiles, fishes, plants..

DECEMBER MOON

The moon of late December
cool are her embers
as she drapes light robes
on each being's members
*
SLEEPMATE

Why is sleeping with a mate
more intimate than lovemaking?
Is it because together
they leave their bodies
to soar?
*
ETIQUETTE FORK

Which fork is used in proper etiquette
to spear the animal's flesh?
Not one... not a single one

(Neither country was a true democracy. Hitler had never received
the votes of more than 1/3 of Germans before the Nazis totally took over the
election sites, while during the time Churchill
was PM, the unelected House of Lords had more power than now.
(My teacher said one sometimes needs a thorn to remove
a thorn.)

RADIOS



Radios..

are than newspapers

more free

and for work our

hands they free

the soul's frequency

and their sound stays

with us 24x7.. most

loyally





AFTER THE FROST



After the frost

he looked not

at the withered leaves

but the tree's fruit

gift

both for itself

and the eternal

seeds it contained



and he continued

to plant trees

to do away forever

with frost

its anchor

A FEW SECONDS OF FREEDOM



Thousands of pheasants

they cage

and watch them as they

sadly age..

until 1 day they are scooped

up in nets..

suddenly there is release

suddenly a man them frees

.. for a few seconds

before the guns blaze away

.. men their feathers pluck

and their bodies freeze



( Dick Cheney has drafted Secret Service personnel as bird dogs.

In just 1 day in Ligonier Township, Pennsylvania, thousands of cage

raised

net released pheasants were set free in front of him, only to be

gunned

down by him, Senator Cornyn, and others. 81 birds were killed in 1 day

by him. His love of killing has cost taxpayers millions of dollars.

The birds' dead bodies were plucked and vacuum packed

and put in Air Force Two freezers. )

OHIO STATE PROJECTS OF THE GOP TRUSTEES



Meaningless to dogs, horses,

to AIDS injected cats

are Libertarian Republican

Democrat..

powerless,

the small.



(Nevertheless, Democrats are preferred

.. because they have reduced suffering.

a glacier in to the sea

.. as souls gently

peel layers of

self unforgiveness



ONE SAID



One said

All criticism is

projected self indictment

.. since we can only see

what we are..

and another replied

that God sees only

that we are all made

of divine love
