Keeping track of the queers? I don’t try!
Didn’t Even Investigate why they were once known as Gay. That was back in the day long before the far-left’s pious cry. ·······  ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

They are crying for left-over pie
as they walk through the streets far and nigh but the bakers can't hear any voice that's not near so the far-away people can't buy ······· ·······Slow down; things will go faster!

When the far-away folks who can’t buy
things the U.S. A. makes, tell them why. It’s your tariffs; they stink and you drove us to drink but old Uncle Sam’s teats have run dry. ······· ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations.

If your Auntie Sam's teats have run dry
find a surrogate cow pastured nigh so her baby can drink while she's dressed in cute pink and there'll not be a cloud in the sky ······· ·······Slow down; things will go faster!

If there’s never a cloud in the sky

If with comical words you reply
who'll take serious things that you sigh? So be serious some, though you needn't be glum Then the things that you share, who'll decry? ······· ·······Slow down; things will go faster!
