Tired of the bull-crap
Tired of the pain
Tired of the agony
It makes me insane
Frustrated at the stupidity
Frustrated at the anger
Frustrated at the idiot
Heading to danger
What am I to do
What am I to see
What am I to wonder
Others want to disagree
In circles I loop
In circles I group
In circles of dispute
I feel like a dupe
Ready to fight
Ready to gripe
Ready to give up
Not into the hype
Drowning in angst
Drowning in silence
Drowning in despair
Feeling a bit of malevolence
It is a travesty
It is a flabbergast
It is a stupefy
Just like an ass
Tired of the bull-crap
Tired of the pain
Tired of the agony
I just want to be sane.
A river runs through my mind and words flow out to the screen. A stream of thoughts, a stream of consciousness. A haven, a cozy corner for what my mind wants to say.

Lean, Mean, Green
This is the time
There is none other
Small is our confine
We should fight together
We should be lean
Reduce the trash
Keep it clean
And recycle that ash
We should be mean
Think aggressively
Keep our senses keen
For Earth's serenity
We should be green
Real is our strife
Change our scene
To better our life.
In Dedication to Earth Day

Presidential Bloopers
I would like to wish President Barack Obama well or rather more than that as he enters into the foray of running the country. A change is in order and we as the people as a whole should do our part to work hard to help the country out as well. However, this is not the goal of today's post. I am quite sure that people around the world including our nation saw the swearing in of the new president with the oath that was "fumbled." Rest assured we have the 20th amendment of the Constitution to overcome these verbal gaffes. We must remember that the president too is also human like us and mistakes may be made from time to time, especially with all those speaking engagements. In honor of the flubbed presidential oath, I would like to post some youtube videos of past follies in presidential politics. Please do enjoy:

A Yell Cries Out From Under
Beneath the smoke and rubble
Bricks fallen asunder
Glass shattered all over
A yell cries out from under
Drips of oozing blood
Drop down the forehead
Aching pain and bewilderment
Littered around with dread
This pain strikes deep
Like a destructive blast
Exploding with blunder
Is there life to even last?
The "rebels" fight fiercely
The gunships too in retaliation
At the heart of this matter
A two-state solution
Yet neither show civility
As civilians die and perish
Palestinians and Israelis alike
Life callously un-cherish
Extremism at the top notch
From the ground and air
The rocket attack unforeseen
As the innocent despair
Is this the Holy Land
Bloodshed and destruction
Hatred and distrust
God's plan and creation?
As the fight forges on
The suffering only multiplies
Exponentially within throughout
From out under a yell cries
Is there peace
A truce and resolution
Fixing the fracture
A conflict's ending conclusion?
Thousands of years of war
Hath not been able to solve
Time to meet at the table
The handshake of peaceful resolve
Urgently and make haste
This needed settlement
Otherwise face the wrath
Of hatred's accursed entitlement
Because beneath the broken
Destruction and despair
This child shall awake
How will he fair?
A yell cries out from under
The angry inferno must cease
For the future's sake
Settle the conflict in peace.

In Honor of Human Rights
It is inherently right
to be as you are
to speak your mind
to be free
to eat fully nourished
to follow your dreams
to communicate with others
to take a rest
to congregate spiritually
to demand justice
to walk unabated
to travel unwatched
to see what we seek
to be human
to be alive
It is our right undeniably to live!

The Right, Left and Center
John McCain is too liberal for the core conservative Republicans while Barack Obama is viewed as conservative Democratic courting Republican voters that those voters are called by the nickname Obama-cans. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton is trying to be viewed as strong not only in the economy, but also in terms of national security which is generally viewed as a Republican ideal. What does this all mean? That like me, a moderate, most Americans tend to be in the center of the political spectrum and that minor differences filter us into the groups known as Conservative Democrats, Independents and Moderate Republicans. This group of Americans are also known as the swing voters, the king-makers per say of the presidential election. This group of Americans are technically the most powerful group in the political system by virtue their numbers, however partisan politics split their power up. This group of voters should break away from their respective groups and form a new party, a moderate party, to reflect more accurately the current affairs of the American nation. Though I doubt this would ever happen, it definitely is quite an interesting thought experiment. What would happen? Where would be be? Maybe the state of America as a whole would be better off if it did. One day it might happen and I definitely would be on the front lines of this revolution. You never know. All it takes is a change of the hearts and minds of people. I am sure I am not the only one thinking of this change and possibly we could forge a new party in this political system of ours that better represents America's attitude and majority.
