Gold ring found had been nearly drown
Old times from past, histories step to advance
Trees walk among the least, from Sauron they flee
The brave stand their ground as the weak bow down. -OTS
How to Make (Do)
Here I sit at the bar
Not contemplating life
Not outlining my day
Not drinking away my night
Here I sit at the bar
Long faces gather round
Supping dry liquors
Some clear and some brown
Drawing on politics
How the world spins round
Group caste of another knit
Supply far distance around town
Before the sun has long gone
Or merchant door fast locked
They show a gaze forlorn
Of the have and have-nots
The old they say:
Go not to school
But make hay
Education is for indebted and feckless fools, they claim
I’ve polished the boot
I’ve washed piled dishes
I’ve stacked up dirty loot
Backroom illegitimate kitchens
I’ve been told what to do
What to think and how to move
I’ve gone full circle to prove
The importance in abandonment of marionette rule
One surprised at how life takes place
Scholarly alterations of changing ways
They say make haste- time is not to waste
Lest become pastiche of those with taste
People, they talk and they chat
Reacting as they can to this and that
Doing little for much complaint
Devising no real plan of attack
Again, at the bar I sit
Reflection on past
I drink to the good life
To others I say, “Relax, only just act.”
They are merely talking when they say they are making plans
Lips move grand ideas but what movement do they place in their hands?
***
The loudest people with the best ideas
Have nothing to do, and so much to fear.
Excerpt:
Only to enhance our frowns
Taken care of by indebted future lot
It comes with major threats and frets
Stuck in made plans, yet to disband they have not.
