BEWARE THE NOON-DAY SUN

 




As sharp as any canine tooth ever dared to be

Sirius thumbs its nose at us, with a certain sort of glee;

To mad dogs and Englishmen...

Is there a plethora of bad fate you see?

The heliacal rising of this star system promises

Heavy  droughts and lethargy...

I'M ALL ABOUT ANNUAL TRIBUTES

 

Each left upon a summer wind:

The seventh month, and June;

One departed 4:00 AM,

The other close to noon.



I touch the memories left by both – 
Some poignant and some light – 
Such keepsakes yield tremendous dreams...
Into this quiet night.

JUST CALL IT WHAT IT IS...

 

THE UGLY FACE OF DECEIT


Full of **** and dipped in gall:

The lying tongue of Sen. Paul;

I hear he's NOT board certified;

His attitude's thus unjustified.



If anyone's lying

I trust it is HIM;

Randal H. Paul,

"The Conservative Sin"

Uniquely American: The Red, White and Blue

      




America sang a song last night,

Its darkened sky burst into light;

In crimson hues, it sang of hope:

An optimist's kaleidoscope...



At least the world can vary sweet

Amidst life's reckoning,

Against defeat...

Independence speaks for all;

Red, white and blue

Inspires, enthralls...





July the 4th makes sundown best;

Pyrotechnic images

Emerge quite well-dressed;

Each one delivers,

Robust and strong;

America's symphony,

Exploding in song!!
