It is another day and no dollar, no peace, no new administration, certainly no typing correctly on this phone, but I had to force myself to put on a smile and call my doc.

My kids want to take me over to the new house and of course I want to see it and them so I want to check with the doc first to see if I’m safe.

And it is laundry day. I totally dread this because changing the bedding on a huge king size bed is not easy. I have a new bamboo comforter that is bigger than me and the scooter combined so getting it off and stuffed into a washer is an adventure. As Sophia says, “picture it” or maybe not!

I hope to write something positive or humerous–it has not been easy lately and I’m sure we all feel the same way. I hope my anger has quelled a bit but I’m not promising anything. As you can probably tell, I have not opened the news yet. Otherwise I would not have the gumption to do anything.

Here’s to peace and thought I would share one of the birds I have in my apartment:

Stay well, stay safe 🤞

One-Liner Wednesday, June 3rd, 2020 – Is it just me?

I hope you’ve had your breakfast or eaten already because this will make you sick to your stomach. This – I cant even say man – I am livid at his hypocrisy.

Slip into a dream with me

Of oceans blue and quiet seas

The calmness will overwhelm

Waves rocking you into a realm

Of peace and distance from the fray

When we wish the world could be this way

Without the knowledge of our decay.

Monsters shrouded on a moor

Devils envisioned in dreams

Creepy crawlers on your floor

This is what we deem

As monsters, real or fake

Scary sights our minds make

Real monsters are displayed outright

Undisciplined, conceited, a boastful blight

Beware, and fight.

The lumberjack competitors started to disperse, quickly fighting through squads of onlookers to join their favorite event. The log float contest outcome depended on the river’s current and even the most unctuous of competitors didn’t look ahead with confidence to the outcome. However, the crowd would never tire of seeing the swarthy contestants knocked off their rolling feet, doused. Many layers of thick wood were bonded on the targets for the contest of axe throwing. The lumberjacks yelled “yeet” as they threw, meaning to add accuracy to their powerful arm strength.

Actions of anger

Defy reason and logic

Protest peacefully

With gratitude to all who follow

Read, write with words she presents

Her own efforts never hollow

With no criticism or descent.

These people who present the prompts

Accepting all, is what everyone wants

The acknowledgement she provides

Enables submissions given with pride.

This is no time for a jubilee, or celebration. It is a time of sadness and despair. Watching the NYPD in their cars, mowing down protestors, is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve seen today.

Jackie Robinson quote:

I’m not concerned with your liking or disliking me… All I ask is that you respect me as a human being.

It didn’t come in under dark of night

It was always there, hiding from light

Under the rocks, buried in caves

Once fought by knights or knaves

Freedom, conscience, truth, are now travesty

All stolen by our leader’s dishonesty

The fruits of his labors now are sealed

A thief of civility now revealed.
