Beyond My Kitchen Window

Beyond my kitchen window
Lives a wondrous world outside
With creatures who know not that I exist
The squirrel who sits upon my deck
And wonders where to hide
The acorns so that they will not be missed
The blue jay squabbles with the cat
Who looks at him askance
And longs to sink her teeth and shut him up
The butterfly who flutters like
He’s just learned how to dance
The question mark that is my neighbor’s pup
The ladybug who pays no mind
To what is going on
Intent is she on filling up her day
With endless flights both back and forth
Until the light is gone
When finally she ups and flies away
I sit still by my window
Not a move and not a sound
Invisible I am to those outside
I see the squirrel’s jaws move with
Something that he must have found
And ladybug on pup has hitched a ride
I wonder why it is I find
Their actions seem like play
While I sit silent in my kitchen chair
Wishing I could understand
What cat just said to jay
And wondering what I’d be were I out there

The Light At The End Of The Tunnel

In a tunnel, deep in the mountains of North Korea, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake was created. For over thirty years American administrations have been looking for the light at the end of the North Korean tunnel, and it turns out the light at the end of the tunnel is from a hydrogen bomb. Perhaps it is time for the United States to declare that if North Korea strikes any part of the US or its allies we will not go quietly into that long, deep sleep but will utterly destroy North Korea and China, and the cities of Mosco, Tehran, Damascus, Riyadh, Mecca and Medina.

The hidden flash
The hidden light
The hidden crash
The open fright
The end of days?
The tunnel’s end?
Beginning phase?
The garments rend?
It’s up to them
So tell them why
ICBM
And you will die

Shoes And Rice

Feminists demand that white men be removed from society, by non-violent means if possible, by violent means if necessary. Demands are made that white male privilege be removed from all aspects of society, that marriage is rapine slavery and the world would be a far better place without white men. Eventually white men will tire of this and end it with a shrug. What the feminists and social justice warriors do not understand is that men allow women to participate in the society men have built, and can just as easily disallow that participation. And if women are denied access to the professions, then there will be no more women lawyers to argue that men must be eradicated. I spoke to a social justice feminist recently, and she was unconcerned that men would deny women access to the vote or to the professions.

They would not dare, she laughed and said
Then smiled and shook her pretty head
And said again, they would not dare
To touch a single strand of hair
To do so would be war
We women have known much success
We know the power we possess
We rule the world in spite of men
And let me say it once again
It’s white men we abhor
Italian men are quite all right
And Frenchmen keep us up all night
And Spanish men with flashing eyes
That cause a thousand female sighs
We simply just adore
But here at home we must insist
White privilege will not be missed
And white men must all be replaced
Society be woman based
To even up the score
She walked away, believing still
That women pay the rapist’s bill
For marriage, children, shoes and rice
But sexbots now are just as nice
And gift wrapped by the store
