Covered Bases and Baseless

Baseless claims

Covered in the bases

Inside the bases are threads

Tying together interwoven very strange

How can lies and truth now be called the same

Differentiation

Miley if not wholly

Insane

Playing a new game

New rules

New attempts at truth and lies

From the cold winter ground

To the opaque spring sky

I can not try to understand all the commotion

Just new words in rotation

Under God’s Great Nation

 

How Long Can it Go Wrong

Is there a limit to wrong

At some point is it all gone

The ability to screw things up

Over and over again and again

Writer repeat send

How many letters do we need to not have

To read anymore

How long can it all go wrong

A day

A year

Eternity

Affirm me

Please that is not a possibility

Impossible

But possibly

I guess it could go on eternally

I will wait

And see

 

Stupid Fang

What happens next

Such a stupid fang

A wrong clip

At the wrong moment

Who claims to be the relative opponent

Maybe it’s the rub of the grape

Fermented a bit too long

Alcohol  preserved now

No going back to the old way

It’s just a stupid fang

Teeth I am not proud of

Moments lacking in empathy

Writing wistfully

Hopefully

But these fangs are not going away anytime soon

What is the feisty destiny of this fang tooth

 

There are No Actors

Real people showing up in real rooms

Filled with real emotions

Not a Facebook news story

Not cheap news shared from a desktop

But real people

Real hearts and real concerns

Time to face the facts

People are not happy

And it is not for the reasons we see on the news

News

Keep your ear to the ground and you will hear

The hearts of the people

Not in tune with media

But in tune with each other

Preparing to change the future

Uproars in Town Halls

Uproars thank goodness

Finally raucous

When we have clowns trying to hold mass

It’s time to get into class

Renewed hopes lie on unusual shoulders

These place holders

Are now finding lessons in power

From the people

By the people

A breathe of fresh air

That is seems now people actually care

Towers Amidst Rotten Fields

The seeds of truth

Lie amongst the fields of lies

Not that we can not discover

But we must earnestly try

While a towering bell lingers

Subtle in the distance

Keeping time on us watching for

Ever instance

In sweet imperfect harmony

With the world that toils around

What we have lost

We have yet to be found

But in time truth will grow

To tower well above the rotten fields

To bring life again to the weaklings

My hope lies in such trees that grow

Along the roads we travel

The roads we have forged

Trees will rise up

Giving us protection from the lies

 

Wrapped Up in Humanity

From east to west

Uneasy unrest

Wrapped up in humanity

Inhumanity

Lies become truth

Truth become lies

We have lost our ability to decipher the truth

And don’t care to sympathize

From the low to the highs

I hope we can somehow discover the truth

Realize

Banter from true lies

But it takes the average citizens to get involved

Even though our whole worlds have revolved

Around disorientation

It must stop and we must begin

People acting in collaboration is when people win
