Celebrate!
Celebrate! Celebrate! The Great Deed is done!Anger, Hate, and Cruelty have at last been overcome!Margins were narrow and the effort was great.Yet such a relief to know there is an answer to the actions of this enemy of every state
New Hope.
I have nothing new to say, only recycled thoughts greet the day.
Dreams and visions have left my head. Pushed out by fear and worries and looming dread.
It’s all old news and none of it good. I won’t display it on screen or pulped wood.
That would only hurt the stubborn and the brave. They are needed by the world to save what’s left, so it will grow and overcome the monster who delivered the first blow.
Bring that down and we may find Hope.
Finding it would be good.
I’m tired of trying and failing to cope.
Moronic Mango
Moron in the morning,
A fearful prospect for those in charge.
Selling the soul to Evil is a mistake that will loom large.
If others are not to know, one must remain in charge.
Evil will pretend to listen and encourage one throughout,
but one must work with materials given, even when they’re witless louts.
If you want to sell the lie, then Evil needs an effective disguise.
Power and Success must radiate out, so Experience and Costume must suggest compliance is wise.
What to do when the facade begins to crack?
Will you then be able to get your old life back?
Can you control your puppet with the looks and wits of a mango fruit?
Or will there be a collision between your head and society’s boot?

Useless Words
Why do you tell me of things I cannot change? Is it only to inspire terror? or would you spread a misbegotten intellectual mange?. If a spark is fed to fire, an extinguisher is required. If none is provided, the consequences will be dire Don't advertise the problem if the solution you will withhold. That is unabashed cruelty, revealing a heart kept icy cold. False hope will rend the soul before the body fails. The only reason to offer it is to hear others moan and wail. If you will reveal the monster, tell me where to find the sword. I don't want to try and fight termites with nothing save a wooden board.

Question the value of memories
10/31/19
Evil creatures with names of those remembered with joy, or not.
A lasting memory of irritation and things I never got.
Silly habit, yes it is so. Yet it is fun and silly and reminds me of things I already know.

The crew of odd ducks.
The only hope is a curious crew. Four whose company most eschew.
A beautiful witch, to court her is to risk being found in a ditch.
A princess dubbed “loud”. Does her voice ring out? Or do her clothes frighten the crowd?
A clumsy thief? What can be said, beyond “Good grief!”
The last isn’t the least, though no one dares invite her to a feast.
This fairy plays with fire, so don’t risk her ire.
Conventional souls see doom and gloom. Yet in the strangest soul a hero may loom.

Liking Hearts
Accolades and acclaim
Both will tweek and zing the brain.
Receive too much and the ego rages.
When there is not enough, creativity and inspiration get locked in cages.
These are dangers, it is true.
Yet rewards are worth a little effort from you.

Guarding the gates
Ideas nibble and chew at the mind. Some are cruel. Some are crazy. Some are kind. All are held in by fear and doubt. Caution whispers, what if you let the wrong ones out?
