IT'S SOMEONE'S
BIRTHDAY !!!
Happy b'day, Alison !!
Just a random array of thoughts, opinions, and the occasional whimsical (or not quite so whimsical!) rambling...
...but
here's the very salient caveat:
The term 'PATRIOTS', as regards those who breached the
Capitol building on 1-6-2021, is merely an acronym...and this is what it REALLY stands for!!!
Pathetically
Asinine,
Treasonous,
Reckless,
Idiotic,
Obsequious,
Trump
Supporters
....and, yes, Trump IS to blame for what happened on 1-6-2021; that said, we CAN'T bury the truth, we should NEVER bury the truth, and we WON'T bury the truth !!!
A Post-Holiday Musing
No greens
adorn the mantel-piece;
No garlands grace the walls;
The pantry shelves are bare once more,
I've swept and mopped the halls...
No longer are there sprigs of pine
To coax red
embers bright;
No longer do the twinkling tails
Of small lights chase the night.
Great wreaths and candles,
Past their prime,
Re-line bespoken drawers;
The
festive foil, made
just for gifts,
Re-dresses attic floors...
Glass ornaments
Are packed with care,
The fir-tree stands 'at curb';
In
one year's time
ALL
will return:
Warm memories,
Un-disturbed...

2020 was 'HELL',
So we braced
ourselves well,
For a
"Covid-cure",
Mid '21...
But when that
never happened,
Our brains looked to
caption
Whatever seemed
buoyant and fun...
Yet the past
year saw sickness
And shootings and
riots;
('21 was no better
than '20)...
When the ball
descends
Times Square,
Just past midnight
(By one hair!),
It had better bring
Fortune, and
plenty...
'22 will begin with
"The Mightiest
Drop",
Kerplop! goes that
ball:
Oh, Kerplop!!
Three 2s mark its "full
name",
[ Perhaps that spells "good fame"],
But will luck put us back
AT THE TOP ?
