We are living on the edge Not too many chances left To take back our country From the grips of those on the left The Walton Family is one of The richest in this country Walmart has erased competition You can see the vanishing downtowns Big Tech with their finance power Buy off corrupt officials in many ways Undermine our election rules Undermine immigration policies Poised to turn states blue Ready to support Marxist socialism Making the founders rich while The uninformed barely surrive It is all about power and control And the honest worker pays the price We are doomed to be turned under Like topsoil under the blades of the plow Our students are indoctrinated We fail to teach the wonder of freedom And how easy it is to lose To understand all of the blood shed For the purpose of freedom Ignorance is an easy excuse but will Not matter when we slip off the cliff Stanski April 20, 2021 ^

THE GREATER GOOD
Helping other people is like building a bridge Don’t worry my friend; I only know a few cords Ideological changes are not a surprise Keeping them in check is not something new We have a few willing to step up To keep economics in line with physics We have checks and balances – that we know But corruption, so dynamic, has the floor I have strummed this tune before Perhaps off key, but my truth will prevail We have to temper this ludicrousness Or the principles of the Red, White, and Blue will fail I strum out let’s all be equal But this would be disingenuous Because under this system the only equality Would be that we are all equally in misery Wokeism does not require trillions Mislabeling what we are doing is communism Corporate America is anti-America The mob can only be bought off for a while How long can congress be bought off then Before all sides of the issue say – stop Let us stop election fraud And other inequalities that are so broad Should Microsoft become China-soft? Should the rich become richer and poor become poorer? Corporate America is held in contempt The desire to exist without paying rent Stanski April 18, 2021 ^
MARCHING ORDERS
Don’t we wish not to fail? And if successful what separates Us from the down trodden? What did we do that was so different? What have we said that was rejected by those Who had the power to make a difference? Some quiet down; get back inside themselves Without realizing the value of their recompense Some cannot handle freedom Who are we to criticize? Are we all not sinners and Who of us deserved the cross? We go along oblivious Not recognizing others talents So much we will never know Still we walk around like conquerors And so easily disregard responsibility Act as if everyone is on their own Our success requires us to prop up And encourage others to do the same We don’t just pass by the rubble pile But ask for wisdom – a rather new style To help these that are down at the present Like we were helped at an earlier time We empty ourselves, then we may wave the flag Showing others that gratefulness for Our own character is deserved Stanski April 12, 2021 ^
WE ARE NOT ALONE
One makes it through Hailed as a hero Nothing like it Euphoria without drugs Yes, you were a highway man But many built that road Some of them in prison Which begs the question Why wasn’t I included? Their sins were my sins My success depended on them Life is not a game of who wins So you reach deep for every cause Lead the way – you bear the cross Let me sing you a melody It is all about what is family Many know about the struggle Farmers need help; real help Who among us is going to step up? Those of us who see the picture As a giver you become a fixture But you do not wave the banner Too many others deserve the praise The Father above is the One to whom we wave No one walks the road alone Not everyone can make a song come alive We are thankful just to survive Stanski April 11, 2021 ^
WHEN AWARENESS BREAKS OUT
The sun breaks through on a cold April day About a month of spring under our belt No one promised us a level of paradise It is up to ourselves to adjust to reality Many time this is a very rough journey Weather is one thing we can struggle through We know it is bound to improve and The waiting is somewhat or almost bearable We wait patiently for reasonability to return Do we want to radically change policing? Criminal justice is in a state of flux Systemic racism is a figment of imagination Men and women – black and white love America The radical left is trying to upset this dynamic We do not need people in leadership to promote Division or schools in the business of indoctrination We want the atomic family and a reduction of welfare No one, with exceptions, should be paid for idleness We will keep safety nets in place for the distressed Self-worth is established by individual contribution Being on the take generation after generation is bad It leads to a total disregard for individual responsibility And additionally to voting for those making promises Leftists love this as we are heading for Marxist Socialism Seven-thirty and mister sun is very encouraging Throwing its light on evergreens and tree trunks The lichen is lit up in a coveted chartreuse I thank the Creator for letting nature loose The ebb and flow eventually leads to balance This is the road we should all want to take Respect for others and open-minded consideration Is needed if we have any hope to save this nation Stanski April 14, 2021 ^
A HUMANITARIAN CRISIS
Everything was pretty good Nothing is ever perfect, but Our border was moving toward Being secure and safe and closed There were exceptions as there always are Coyotes were still at work The Mexican cartels did not go to sleep Many arrests were made and The flow of drugs and sex slaves Had been reduced Covid-19 was not helpful. The Chinese Communist Party has its ways. Our then president went to work He was criticized for just being him, but He was diligent in the development of vaccines Now we have an occupant who Is in bed with the CCP His family has become rich – with Hunter “lap-top” Biden leading the way The occupant has signed executive orders To open the border, stop the fence construction And allow asylum seekers to get lost in our interior Rather than keeping them in Mexico Until their case could be heard The former President had had this arranged The problem is not only the Latin America Exodus from their countries, but the Array of people, most of them male criminals, From all over the world. This is a plan First the corrupt election and then the bell Ringing out white privilege and systemic racism You cannot bring back the peals nor can you Retrieve all the feathers that have Been released into the wind Big Tech is underwriting this criminality Anyone sensible is cancelled, especially Those who speak against socialism and Fear for the outcome of this once great country We were on our way back but corruption, Deceit and indoctrination brought us Joe-Joe May God help us wake up Stanski April 16, 2021 ^
OH FOR WHAT TO CANCEL
In this cancel culture of ours We will cancel ourselves Having already cancelled The police, the small business owners, Non-mask wearers, ethics, The border wall, immigration laws We are working on cancelling guns Then what? Knifes. And then the courts? We have cancelled integrity, gender Love of neighbor, consideration of others We cancel Christianity and religion in general Also liberties and honest elections Education is cancelled Replaced by indoctrination We cancel fairness and righteousness Cancel the middle class Under the guise of taxes presented for One thing, but used for everything else The taxes are titled but the titles are cancelled Beyond our ability to reconcile If we could only cancel our foolishness That would be the real cancel and Open the doors to where all could succeed We could cancel our purchases at Amazon and Walmart and Bring back our downtowns once more But we are foolish and are like Lambs being led to the slaughter by Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, Harris and Joe-Joe who cancelled his integrity A very long time ago He should cancel Iran and Russia And also timetables announced to the world He has sold his soul to China as has The leader of his opposition, McConnell There are special places in the hereafter For people like this which cannot be cancelled We should cancel peaceful protests which Take place at night under the cover of darkness We will wait for the Light to overcome this The Light cannot be cancelled Stanski April 15, 2021 ^
FROM HERE TO THERE AND BACK
Trees look sickly, especially in the mist On a day that has been gray When the sun has not been evident Its early spring; roads are ruddy and dirty There is an absence of grace Except for the running streams Evergreens are magnificent Tamaracks look doubtful at this time I feel like ice which is about to crack The horizon is barely visible Despondency seems quite natural Even though integrated with meaningful prayer I seem artificial as if having no cause Meditating and contributing leaves me Lusting for more; there has to be more Beyond this; if only for just a glimpse Sounds like a doubting Thomas, but normal We all go through this and tomorrow When it is the same who will there be to blame? It is the rapture that I would like to capture So much to know; the need to glow In my own eyes if nothing more A stranger passes – I say hello – end of story I did not want conversation What I say is the same for everyone It is my job to keep track of these things I will give a report but pass no judgements And I cannot answer inquiries as to what I am all about; the tides are steady A lesson to everyone; they are amazing and Have power manifested by the moon Power in man does not equal this and Will eventually put you in the ground while Those suffering indignity will Wear the everlasting crown The sun will begin to shine and in a few weeks Everything will be fine Melancholy is not all bad Stanski April 14, 2021 ^
MY ANGEL WINGS FLAPPED
I want to turn my life Into something that is official This is an honest request But I doubt that it ever will I am up against the rich and powerful, who Constantly ask for money To advance the causes they feel I agree with They do not know that I am an angel, who Has been assigned to keep track of all of all The corruption I see in the process of governing As an angel I can detect many fallacies But not more than a normal person who cares I have to take all of these things in and Watch as innocents are destroyed While self-interested parties are profiting At the expense of condemning to death Those who will not pay the cost of liberty Disregarding the fact that we have rules And immigration is possible just following The rules that have been in place, but False promises have attracted the innocent To come to our borders seeking asylum It is not possible to overload the system These are the things I must report My heart aches for these innocents Drawn to what they hope is opportunity Not knowing the rules we have in place But trying to escape from their tyranny My angel heart aches for these being abused While coyotes purge us with their agenda Criminals from many countries Drugs contaminated sure to cause many deaths Sex slaves entering while avoiding detection What will my Master say when I make my report? Before I left, I told you what you should do I promised that the Holy Spirit would be with you Now you come with this devastating news The Dark One has tempted those in charge Promised them riches and total control I agree is all that I can say because I was only observing Things should change, He said, or there will be a toll I personally remembered the immortal soul My angel wings flapped, safety is my goal Stanski on April 9, 2021 ^
WOKEISM
The new religion of the left Cancel everything Does that have a ring? Wokeism – a big threat On this you can bet Destroy our society Come to the party When it is over We will plant the cloves Critical theory Makes you dreary Do not study Turn facts into putty Repressive tolerance A new romance Keep up with the pace Let us involve race This is not new Known by a few Positive truths hijacks Guns removed from racks Children home from school Tell you – you are a fool But they are wrong Just repeating a song A hundred year war Very close; no far Family, religion, culture Watch out for the vulture What does it take? It takes you and me All of us --- Let’s get going Stanski April 9, 2021 ^
