(Hour 19) 16.30pm-17.30pm. PROMPT, : “common phrases used in a context where you would not usually hear them”

Pardon me: or 11 things you’ll never hear Presidential Candidate Drumpf say.

““An ‘extremely credible source’ has called my office and told me that Barack Obama’’s birth certificate is a fraud.”
Pardon me, I’m making this shit up as I go along.

“I am being proven right about massive vaccinations. The doctors lied. Save our children and their future.”
Pardon me, I’m not really an anti-vaxxer.

“I will build a great wall – and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me –& I’’ll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, & I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.””
Pardon me, for all the many many funny things about this.

My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body.”
Pardon me, I’m very insecure.

“My IQ is one of the highest— and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure; it’s not your fault.”
Pardon me, I’m very insecure AND practising my standup comedy routine.

“President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are founder and co-founder of ISIS.”
Pardon me, I now want you to know I was being sarcastic.“

“The beauty of me is that I’’m very rich.””
Pardon me, I’m obviously aware in this context, beauty is skin deep.

“26,000 unreported sexual assaults in the military. Only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?”
Pardon me, I didn’t mean to imply rape is inevitable between men & women.

“You know, it really doesn’’t matter what the media write as long as you’’ve got a young, and beautiful, piece of ass.””
Pardon me, I’m being a pervy old white guy.

““I’’ve said if Ivanka weren’’t my daughter, perhaps I’’d be dating her.””
Pardon me, I’m being the most pervy old white guy anyone could possibly be.

“I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Oops. Pardon me. He’s never going to say that.

Waterfalls

Rushing water

Blasting over the top

White foam edges

As it crashes below

 

Beauty and splendor

Rushes past the rock wall

Forcing it to be smooth

From the sheer strength

 

The noise so loud

Can be heard downstream

Drowning out the sounds

Of voices and movement

 

Standing beneath it

Is awe inspiring

Spray washes over you

Saturation in an instant

Poem 20-Pajamas

I love pajamas

Soft rainbows of light fabric

No belts or tight crotches

No bones or pockets of keys

Liquid lounging

Without a bra

A cat fast asleep by my side

The gentle breathing of rest

the perfect blend of gentle caress and

restful relaxation

If only all clothes were more

Pajama like

Soft, cuddly

Loose lines and open cuts

And the girls could roam free

Without a care

What a wonderful

Flannel fantasy

It would be

 

 

 

 

Coalition

Cunning fox, lithe red form
and brave, black bear
lead the girl over sidewalk
through concrete jungle
decorated with a spray can
among leftover flora.
Or maybe,
she leads them.

A Place of Worship

Here in this pre-dawn morning

these words I offer upon the altar.

This fane built of sweat and tears

as the hours pass in souls searching –

searching for the perfect words in the perfect order.

This path in the wilderness narrows,

as weary heart grows heavy with sleep.

20 My Warrior Princess – Xandra Nicole

Be brave my little Warrior Princess

Conquering a new kingdom with the same big heart of yours

With your usual charm, resoluteness and steadfastness

Just be brave my little Warrior Princess.

The strangeness of your new kingdom  will add magic to your conquests

Make it real, make it enviable to all

Make it your formidable stronghold

My brave little Warrior Princess.

Your new castle, your new reign

Will be your new Haven

Frustrations, problems, issues will come your way

Be as it may, all will be a piece of cake

Once you confront these with your steady mind and loving heart.

Go my little Warrior Princess

Prayers will be your armaments

and Love will be your shield

Your time starts now, my Warrior Princess.

Lotus flower

A flower for enlightenment
Overcoming murky life on its abode
Solace of new light

Life unearths
Death imminent a reality
Rebirth blossoming

Nature cycle empowering
Life’s universe understanding
Forces of light and love forever singing

Hoping I wouldn’t see you,

I went to gather news.

Your next door neighbor

told me that your twins

were the light of the block.

 

She asked me if I wanted her

to tell you I’d come.

I told her no.

 

Hoping against hope and good sense

that you would understand

and perhaps know,

I looked around one more time

before I left for good

as if my standing there

could draw you out

by some recondite urban magic.

 

But I figured later

It was just as well.

To War

It was finally time.

Mister Fox led the way followed by Read the bear

Fionna the child in Red kept pace.

While other creatures crept, or snuck or slept

These three strode with confidence

Through the ruined city

Graffiti fills the walls and (in some cases)

Keeps the structures in place

While plants tear others down (decomposing)

Advertisements in a forgotten tongue

Stroll past the trio as their war has begun
