Here in 2024, after all this country has been through, the electorate and politic has brought forth these two 
as the best that we can do
for the future of our country. 
Translates a lot to me. Translates a lot to us all. 
(ears cupped, or covered?) 
Now must we talk about the lesser of two weevils without deflection or fuzzy focus.
Media mire and hocus pocus

Seems the tragedy of a starving reason 
this modern man season
to the point of an abundant logical reckoning. 
Farming a feral freedom. 
Perfect soil. Perfect weather. Perfect seeds. 
Perfect produce. Perfect understanding. 
After all, what is blood for, otherwise? Dress it to spill.

Big, peeling old mansion on the hill. All the slopes a fill. A tent city festival of lights surrounding.
Navigation confounding. Babbling towers of culture compounding.

Prisoners of conscience, it renders them thirsty yet patriotic still? Hungry and fed on appeal?

Yet

Peace peace, there is no peace. More and more a golden fleece.

Perfect gaze, thoughtful glaze. Perfect grace, gentle space.
Conformed and confirmed the time apace. Till the end of dearth do us part ways.

Free form accompaniment; reeds and percussion. Brushes on symbols
soft at first, watery trem
equalized when mixed with drone
strings


This one is entitled:

Weird Post To Form/Forum
Numbers 69 and 365

From where comes the gripper
banana foot flipping downslope slipper
wave at the sky a sickly flipper
still hanging on, still dropping dipper
in the well well well
What have we found here
there down in that well

A to Z
1 to 10
I woke today
And that was great
So I did what I couldn’t 
Yesterday wasn’t that great
So today I did contemplate
The tasks at hand
And continue with my fate
Just a day late.
10 to 1
Omega to Alpha

Anger up and down the street.
Victory caught in the jaws of defeat
Left lane, right turn
Right lane, left turn
Angry candle, watch it burn
down
down
down
The world is a purple urn
unbound


that's not only bad. It's worse than terrible.
truth be told, the gist is old
the grist has mold

Winds to whispers to stone weapon eyes
puzzle the pieces that fall from the skies
Enormous black clouds send little white lies
shards of truth in dead mothers cries

Does it seem so hard to season
Where the babes do sleep to reason
