Tear dropping
Face stopping
To move forward

there can be something right
in something that seems wrong
if your thoughts only belong

Losing My Respect

He wasn’t a hero of mine
But perhaps closest in line
To a politician with class
Without scandals en masse

New Axis of Evil

No day is like the day before
The toddler in the White House swore
To make a deal and start a war

Compensation

what you notice about the weak
they know where they can hurt others
and they will do

coming into life for trouble

just a little bit of excitement
is the reason to be alive
still searching for the other one
the peace after the hurricane

If there is reason for another dream
While politicians use this phrase to ponder
What can I buy to grow my self-esteem

burn out

and again
an old white man
has declared himself competent enough
that his life is rough
