A civic Haiku, 11
Eagle on the wind,
we the people hold the line still—
outriders remain.
Beautiful.
We definitely need a new dawn!
Love it too! They took away our flag do the eagles 🦅 are the best uniter for our freedom! Love it
I AM THE ENEMY OF POWER
Slandered and abused
Beaten, bruised, but still fighting
For you - I am Truth
Not welcomed by all
To those who would do you harm
I’m the enemy
Behold my allies
Diverse views, skepticism
Inconvenient facts
My foes tell their flocks
“Others will lie to you. I’ll
tell you what to think!”
They’re threatened by me
Their power comes from closed minds
Anger, fear and hate
They will convince you
You didn’t see what you saw
Or hear what you heard
They will vilify
Shout-down, demean and malign
Those who speak for me
Trust your eyes and ears
Trust your power to reason
Trust I am there, but …
May be obscure. There’s
not always a smoking gun.
Sometimes, only smoke
But connect the dots.
The proof is in the picture.
Yes, that’s me you see.
I’ve nothing to hide.
I can stand your scrutiny.
Because I am Truth!
Thank you. Needed it.
You’re very welcome, Jan. I wrote this during Trump’s first term, and needless to say, it still applies … maybe more so.
Protests at the Capitol in Austin Texas today!
We need honesty and integrity today to win the election’s!
We want honesty today not the crude and cruel behavior of Donald Trump!
Respect the chaos ball
It always rolls your way, my way
Peace is the way
When the eagles flew
They saw red
And plucked them.
