War
Crayons

Silver colored crayon
Drawing a bent line in the sky
Gleaming ochre in the night
And in the day - a shade of white
Where the line decides to stop
Turned orange and cloudy gray
Cast shapeless shadows in the night
Shattered skylines in the day
The shards of a burning crayon
Melted crimson in the streets
Its eerie and thunderous roar
Shook the ground beneath my feet
The angry crayon traced a line that
Found my shelter at its end
Blue and yellow crayons
Still clutched in my lifeless hand
SEARCHING FOR THE CORRECT RECIPE
Once again in the world we see in use this familiar recipe for war
It aways begins with two countries but you’ll certainly be adding more.
The leaders of one country have two goals…to take another country’s freedom and to expand…The other country and her people want to keep their freedom and hold on to their land.
This recipe is guaranteed to cause countless deaths and endless pain..
We start by amassing an army with guns…then add some tanks and boats and planes…
From the guns bullets fly…from the tanks missiles are launched…and from the planes bombs will fall…creating a path of death and destruction…not for one…but for all.
We’ll need blood…lots of it…knowing so much of it will be spilled…as men…and women…and their babies…entire families are killed.
We’ll have to add more people and then more people and more people still…
until there’s no one left to add…until there’s no one left to kill.
Leaving us with only sorrow and tears where happiness dwelled before…because without sadness and sorrow and tears…you cannot make a war.
When the recipe is completed…when the last ingredient has been eliminated…is there any sane person in the world who enjoys the taste of what that recipe created?
And we think since it tasted so awful…perhaps we’ve had our fill of war…until the next time we look up and see two countries…maybe more.
Who have forgotten how bad war tasted…or worse ignore it…and then…begin to gather the ingredients to try that recipe again!
While the rest of the world who dream for the day when all wars will cease…
are desperately trying to develop…a recipe for peace.
Héros
Là dans la brume la bataille s'accélère
Dans sa lutte marc s'écroule dans la poussière
Consommé par une force meurtrière
Ses forces le quittent, il défaille.
Mais du désespoir jaillit la volonté.
Le jeune soldat songe à sa fille
Il se relève pour elle, il tombera pour elle
Mais par un coup de vent il chancelle
Ses ailes brisées d'une balle dans la poitrine.
Il murmure son prénom; "Eline"
The Incredible Machine
A dawn of advance
The world was ready,
The people weren't
And their children heaved through years of framework,
It was progress...
Alas the good deeds
People found new needs,
They set out to reach
The things they would teach...
A night to recall
The battle was won,
The war neverending
Upon it they weaved a special network,
It was useless...
A spun web of fate
Of gaiety and hate,
Forgotten the days,
Of the mortal ways...
An eclipse of minds
Oiled engines and souls,
Young, riotous rage
And they wanted blood for joy and fireworks,
Evolution...
A March Through Snow In Wartime
The people march,
A great crowd clothed in tatters.
They march hour after hour,
Across barren ice lands,
And past corpses and carcasses,
Famished and frozen as night falls,
And the march shows no signs of ending.
Many stumble, never to get up again.
They lie in the snow, forgotten,
Dying under the night sky
As Europe destroys itself with war,
And nations weep and mourn for their sons.
They march.
The Pianist
The pianist lifts his arms,
His hands come crashing down.
The bass notes growl, an ominous crescendo,
Warning of civil unrest and tension,
And of a Europe about to go to war.
The audience watches,
Hoping, praying that war will not come.
The pianist pauses, a brief silence that pulsates with uncertainty.
He lifts his wrists again, resuming the menacing trill in the bass,
His fingers working furiously as the growl grows in volume
And the temperature rises in the auditorium.
The audience stares.
A pause follows, and then a lament,
The work of a composer weeping for a lost love, for days gone by,
For his country, perhaps, and for his compatriots.
The pianist continues to play.
Caligula Wars Against Neptune
*
Caligula led the Roman
army to the sea
to fight Neptune who dwelt
beneath ocean waves' swell.
After soldiers speared
the waters
Caligula declared a win,
and seized as tribute
caskets full of seashells.

In 2009 it was reported that Feinstein introduced legislation to provide $25 billion in taxpayer money to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp, a government agency that had recently awarded her husband's real estate firm, CB Richard Ellis, what the Washington Times called "a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms."

During debate over the adoption of new censorship measures against intolerance, Blum cited long conversations with Feinstein and their mutual belief that students criticizing Israel “ought to have a dismissal or a suspension from school.” ' His wife has labeled criticism of Israel antiSemitism, which is akin to labeling Trump critics antiAmerican.

Mini-Beast of the East
Mini-Beast of the East
By jfarrell
Solemnly we announce
That we have conclusive evidence
That the recent cold weather
Is a Russian attack!
We have known, for years,
Putin’s research into using
Satellites to manipulate the weather
And…..
We have evidence;
Here we present the video….
Putin, barechested and looking so manly,
Standing atop a mountain and blowing the clouds at us
Britain demands an explanation!
…or we’ll take away your gym membership!
We call on friends around the world (both of you)
To stand united with us.
