Share Your World: 25th November
Poor Joe they all thought he was weird
Reason was his horrible beard
Long and fuzzy looked like a nest
Birds in it when he was at rest
Tragedy struck the day it was seared.

“Everything’s better with butter” I have to agree
It’s fat of course, with bread or potatoes, a treat
Then there’s avocado, a more healthy choice
But fats in general should not be rejoiced
Veggies themselves are good for your tummy
But with butter? Yummy!

dVerse Q213 With a little help…
The revolving doors to the convention floor
Were a total confusing mess
Everyone trying to ingress and egress
Causing guards at the door major stress
And then the escalator ascending and descending
Some attendees stuck on it never ending.
The convention had visitors, these devices unknown
It’s a wonder tempers were not overblown!

I know, you’ve seen it here before, but it’s extremely relatable today and I’m sharing:
Just Breathe
Song by Pearl Jam
Yes, I understand
That every life must end
As we sit alone
I know someday we must go
Oh, I’m a lucky man
To count on both hands
The ones I love
Some folks just have one
Yeah, others they got none
Stay with me
Let’s just breathe
Practiced all my sins
Never gonna let me win
Under everything
Just another human being
Yeah, I don’t want to hurt
There’s so much in this world
To make me bleed
Stay with me
You’re all I see
Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn’t, I’m a fool, you see
No one knows this more than me
As I come clean
I wonder every day
As I look upon your face
Everything you gave
And nothing you would take
Nothing you would take
Everything you gave
Did I say that I need you?
Oh, did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn’t, I’m a fool you see
No one knows this more than me
As I come clean
Nothing you would take
Everything you gave
Hold me ’til I die
Meet you on the other side

Weekend Writing Prompt #391 – Vicinity
“In a recent development in the ongoing legal battles surrounding former President Donald Trump, a New York judge has granted him permission to seek dismissal of a criminal case in which he was convicted in May of 34 felony counts involving hush money paid to a porn star. This decision comes in light of Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 presidential election.” Read more disgusting news here:
You know what this means—as soon as January rolls around and he’s in his office, the SCOTUS presidential immunity hits and he will not be further prosecuted for his many crimes. I guess these “judges” and (I wonder where they purchased their degrees), want to go home early for Christmas, just like congress, who reap tax dollar money while all of these lawsuits just sit there. But you’ll see them on tv, or social media like FB, yelling about the choices Trump hopes to have in offices none are qualified for. Choices from payoffs for supporting his campaign, even opposite minded for the work of the office, such as AJ, Education, Health and Welfare. These appointees oppose what the office stands for. Making up a new organization led by Musk who I must admit did his bit to support Trump, and now he’s being paid off. So what does an ordinary citizen do? While your congress people may say publicly what they think, how about asking them to do something about it? These people are working for us—for the people!
I’m stopping here, getting coffee. I know you’re glad about that!
An interesting choice and so many interpretations! First I’d like to say a grandson is turning 25 today, I always consider that a milestone to celebrated! 🥳
Then the prompt which my first thought was how unjust our country is becoming and justice is not being served by the supreme justices in office. Just for a moment picture if Trump was a black medium income man and having committed the crimes he has been proven to have done, where do you think he would be today? Running for president? Becoming the next president of the fin’ USA? Sorry…but this is stream of consciousness and the word just? just brings out the anger in me, because there is no justice here.

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS Nov. 23, 2024
“All in good time”
Said with conviction
Knowing it will never be his decision
He can wish, he can dream
See only happy scenes
But the time will be however it’s planned
By appalling oligarch hands
