New Leaf

I’m on a new
Path today

A different kind
Of way

A way
just begun

A path
I know none

But the path
I will take today

I’m SixtySome
I’ve had my fun

But time
To turn a leaf

A side
I don’t know

But it’s
Where
I will go

I’m on a new
Path today...

I’ve always fought
This  “Higher Power”
It then...
Hit Me!
Like
A bell tower

Through out my journey
When **** SHOULD crash
Somebody up there liked me
And ALWAYS
Saved my
***

So if you could please
Look down on me more
I do need
The looking
To show me
Which door

I’ll get on my knees
To thank you
EACH DAY
For all of the lifting
And pointing
The way

And so...
I BELIEVE
In a “Higher Power”
It’s good to
BELIEVE
In this waning hour

I hope you find yours
Don’t give up, geez
I’m now 64
And
Just down on
My knees

One afternoon, as a kid, I stopped to watch a movie that was on in the den with my mother, this was very rare. The movie was Somebody Up There Likes Me with Paul Newman as Rocky Graziano and Joanne Woodward as his wife.
Rocky at one point in the movie realizes that he’s been a very lucky man, many things in many ways could’ve happened to him, but didn’t... during a ticker tape parade Rocky shouts out...”Somebody Uo There Likes Me.”

Black Lives Matter
Is a reminder
Black Lives Matter
Is not black primer

Black Lives Matter
Needs to be said
With all the black boys
Ending up dead

Black Lives Matter
Yes, you do too
But blacks girls go missing.
Without all the News

Black Lives Matter
Is their weighing in
If all lives mattered
It needn't be said

There is a man named Don
A true Cohn man's con
He lies he cheats
Who ever he meets
Yet many see nothing wrong

Welcome to my Snowflake life
Where I know what's right is right
Children belong with their parents
Not in cages with ICE agents

Welcome to my Libtard life
Where I know whats right is right
If they lived here since childhood
Then here's their home, their "Neighborhood"

Welcome to my human life
Where I know what's right is right
You may feel we owe nothing
I say leastly understanding

Welcome to my 'Merican life
Where I'm taught what's right is right
When I hear HIM, I cringe and say
"He aint right, he CANNOT stay"

Hello
My name is Bill
I am a Snowflake
I speak against racism
I am a Snowflake
I care about injustice
I am a Snowflake
I KNOW guns don't **** people
People **** people
I also KNOW if someone has an assault rifle with HIGH CAPACITY CLIPS, they can **** a lot more people in very little time
**** right, I'm a Snowflake
I know donald trump is a travesty
That's right...
I am a Snowflake
I fear Lady Liberty has fallen down
A Snowflake I am
I believe in equal rights for ALL
Snowflake
I care for the child who arrived here with his parents at a young age, went to school here, only speaks English, only knows the United States as home
Call me Snowflake
It tears at my heart to know that a family can travel 100's of miles for a better life, only to have the children taken away from the parents, TAKEN AWAY AND PLACED IN CAMPS
YA, I'm a friggin Snowflake
I use to be a Hippie
Now I'm a Snowflake
Hoping for a BLIZZARD

You really are a putz
You beep, you crowd
Your radio’s loud
You act like such a nut

You really are a pain
You swerve, you brake
For heavens sake
You rarely use your brain

You really think your queen
You text, you read
All while you speed
And then get really mean

A bully is what you are
The swears, the rage
Not acting your age
All this while driving a car
I live in Massachusetts, we call each other Massholes!
