What we need at the next debate is an automatic mute button after your two minutes are up and when your opponent is speaking. Sign language wouldn’t work.

One-Liner Wednesday – The Lasting Consequences of Sign Language

September leaves us

Comes in autumn, call it fall

Frosty pumpkins, all

The favorite colored leaves

Drifting down from the roof’s eaves

🍁🍁🍁

Baby Abert Squirrel

Let me be candid, my name’s not Frank

In fact for most of us, names don’t rank

I’m comfortably ensconced up in this pine

I consider it a tax free home of mine

It’s only when park visitors come to call

I turn corybantic and run from them all.

The child sits in wonder, oblivious to the danger. Our job is protection–from predators certainly, and politics today, streaming violence and harsh words. Children are natural sponges, absorbing the world around them. Let’s make it a pleasant sea to swim.

Another day of no one

Lockdown takes its toll

An empty bus of memories

And fun times it holds

I rest here on my way home

Breathing in nostalgia

While friends and family

Also remember gala.

A brief softening

Nature’s treasure shared with me

A simple beauty

There is no calm here

A storm is just beginning

Rise and be heard, vote!

The writing is on the wall

The imminent death of democracy

The purchase of integrity

The sellout of our representatives

The weakness of participants

The foul leaders win while

Hard fought truths lie here stagnant in a historical museum.
