GOD HELP US
The world is a little crazy now 
Our country is no exception
We allow “peaceful protests”
And de-fund the police
Have a media that lies
Is complicit in supporting
The occupant’s action
On the Keystone pipeline
The fracking on federal property
The tear down of our border policies
Including halting the fence construction
The cancelling of our agreement with Mexico

We are in crisis in many ways
Attacks on religion and a 
Pandemic with Covid-19
A CDC which lies to us
Led by Comrade Napoleon Fauci
Attacks led by Antifa and the BLM
Murders increasing in major cities
Homelessness all over the country
Suicides by our military personnel
Abortions in unimaginable numbers
Children not back in school universally 
Indoctrination supported by the Marxists

Politician’s spending money we don’t have
Paying people not to work
Regulations that cause businesses to fail
Skyrocketing gas and energy prices
Inflation rising rapidly
Israel being attacked by Hamas 
Money to Palestine with no strings
Which prompted their rocket attacks on Israel
John Kerry in bed with Iran
Biden and McConnell in bed with China
The cure will be more painful than the problem
We should return to good decisions and righteousness

I MISS STANLEY

Before all the crisis
There was a time
When I was enthralled by
The Poet Laureate, Stanley Kunitz 
He was a good philosopher 
Respected by the intellectuals 
And he understood nature and
Also loved his garden

He wrote for himself and his
Gardens were for his own satisfaction
Solutions to internal conflict
Came out in his musings and poems
Satisfaction with balance came
With his passion for the garden
He observed and drew conclusions
As critical thinking often does

He was sometimes frustrated by condition
But safeguarded himself by belief in solutions
Knowing that everyone would not be satisfied
Because control or power was lost
Stanley was a dreamer but had foresight
He knew potential and how to achieve it
He lived in the moment; knew when to move on
A hero, now gone, but will be remembered
