PERSPECTIVE
PERSPECTIVE: Which side of the mirror are you on? Are you the reflection or what is real? I watched a man on national tv espouse all the virtues of hate, of racism and ignorance. Heard him downplay accomplishments and work of people that came before him. Watched and listened to him calling people names, assigning epithets to people he didn't like or agree with to undermine their credibility and hide his own lack thereof. Listened to him brag on a recorded video of how he can grab women by their most intimate parts and suffer no consequence due to his celebrity status. Watched and listened to him call for the conviction of an opponent based on hearsay more than proof. Watched and listened to this person denigrate every law and yet refuses to accord the same right to any critic of his. And he was elected PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!

SCATTERED VISIONS
I wrote this on my computer-typed it I should say. Normally I write my poems out on paper cuz I like the way that feels but it's been a sad 2 yrs and the love I have is rather stunted at this time. The poem itself is self-explanatory..I think. That's the thing about poems, it's a piece of our soul that we share with people..sometime in joy, sometimes in sadness. Peace
