New poem: "Unsavory Position"

 

 

Unsavory Position

 

The world is too caught up

in the immediacy of daily events

to care to know its true purpose

in life, and rather than taking time

to reflect on its own unpalatable

situation, the world looks for new

causes to fight for and defend; not

because it believes in what it is

fighting for, but to keep from facing

its own situation; hence, all the

protests in America’s sanctuary

cities fighting for the unsavory

position of harboring illegal

criminal immigrants.

New poem: "Spin"

 

Spin

 

I hate spin.

I really hate it.
I hate spin more

than I hate sin,

which loves me

more than I hate

spin. That’s the

quandary we find

ourselves in when

we spin what favors

sin, which Trump

 deniers (including

Trump) love

 to do.
