Cut it OUT (behavior)

Cut it IN ( the beat)

Cut to the chase (idiom)

Cut the crap (exhortation)

Cut yourself and whine
(bad teenage poetry)
Cutters and whiners
are still under-represented
here at H.P.
This injustice must be addressed

Here’s what I say:

Racism is BAD.

Please know what I think:

Genocide is BAD.

Listen to what I believe:

****** was BAD.

I would never have participated:

Columbus was BAD.

I’m not for mean people:

Trump is BAD.

Invading nations is so wrong:

Putin is BAD.

I am for peace:

War is BAD.

We believe in love:

Hate is BAD.
Ok?  You got that?  
Any questions?
Now put it on a bumper sticker.
Show them who you are.

HUAYNO

Why such stomping and rolling in the mud
Daughter of Andean sun, Flower of Maize,
Pachamama’s finest, bloom from the bud—
Why shame your royal past and noble ways?
Descending from the peaks you slosh around;
To melancholy Huaynos’ sodden sound.

What shall we blame—Pizarro ? … or your sin,
In selfies and cerveza on the net;
We hope your restoration may begin.
From what we see, it has not started yet.
Your crown: the restitution of your glory.
May heaven bless the ending of your story.



PASO DOBLE

You too, Chapina, stagger in the dirt
And hope your huipil does not bare your soul;
The shame you seem to lack, we feel—and hurt.
Your drunken Paso doble digs a hole
In which you may lie down and find a way
To seek the Lord once more at break of day.

That Gallo on your breath, your careless dance,
Would trample all your past into the mire.
Such Guatemalan tragedy; romance
Could almost cause an angel to expire.
And Arbenz’ overthrow notwithstanding,
May God grant you further understanding.
Huayno = trad. Andean song
Chapina = Guatemalan (f)
Huipil = trad. Ctrl. American women's garment
Gallo = ntl. beer of Guatemala

Hey hey I'm an extREEEmist!
Look at me I'm so dAAAAngerous!

I send my child to a Christian School...
We recycle.
I ignore the lying news media...
We pay our taxes.
I love my white culture...
We speak three (3) languages.
God created only two (2) genders...

Hey hey I'm so dAAAANgerous!
I'm an extREEEMist! Look at me!
Look out.
We are EVERYWHERE.
