Every once
in a                 while
you.                 need
to         talk
to a
child.                 just
so you
can
understand
life  again
Youth
willful And
wild
freedom        through
the.                       eyes
Of                               A
Little.                                 child

Song inspired
1)Both sides now by Joni Mitchell
2)The sound of music movie song, my favorite things
Innocence 7-21-24
At family gatherings, I like to sit at the little kids table. It’s a more honest conversation. The way they look at the world is a beautiful thing they miss nothing yet parents don’t seem to realize..

The Joker who is Batman‘s
Arch enemy and life nemesis
learned of Batman‘s true identity
And started asking real questions


How could a shooter
A seemingly untrained
Young adult without
Obvious motives A boy\man in
a Black Rock commercial

get past seasoned secret service
A calamity of errors Poor planning
A ladder on the side of a building
Bystanders spotting the shooter prior to Trump going on stage Alert, police

A policeman has a confrontation
with the shooter and runs away?
WHY was Trump allowed to go on stage?
The father alerts the police. He’s worried about his son.? Father’s missing gun

The timelines don’t add up
Secret service story changes
I’m sure they’re going to say
extenuating circumstances!
legitimately Will be presented

All Questions will be answered
they claim to have transparency
Pun intended
IT ******* AWAY
The Picture I have in my head;

The intention behind the shooter(s)?
Was for the American people
To watch Donald Trump’s
Head blown off On national television
witnessed by Millions around the world.

Why? what is the reason, the lesson;
Americans know your place!, get in line
The bigger picture It’s not all about Trump
He’s just in the way, We are next
It’s the American people they’re after

“Profane wicked people
Whose day has come
when iniquity shall have an end”
Ezekiel 21:26

That is the extent of their hatred
How do you reconcile
Hate derangement ?
Take a moment to fathom
The Gravity of the situation

News media moguls
Love to parody Trump hatred
The grotesque mockery on cue
Insinuating Character sabotage
“it’s a stunt Trump merely fell,
And had to be carried off stage”

“Trump is using his bandage as a prop”
“He staged The whole thing”
The cesspool of lying through their eyes
Biden’s campaign
Unconscionable rhetoric

ramping up hate
Trump is called a ****
Trump will be a dictator
There will be no more democracy
Trump hates black people

Public figures saying
“someone should take him out”
“The shooter had one job and he missed?”
It doesn’t matter what side you’re on
doesn’t matter what you think of the man

If they could do this to  
a president elect
What do you think
they have planned
for you and me?  

  Biden has stepped down
For  the next round
A change of tactics
Enter
The Cat Woman

BLT Webster’s Word of the Day challenge
Extenuate 7-22-24 to lessen the strength or effect of some thing
The fabric of society dangles by a feeble thread
That trembles with the the heavy weight of anger
And is stretched beyond what possibly
Can hold it all together

Weavers rush to reinforce the ever thinning yarn
But the sheep that usually supply the wool
Are scattered in the meadows of contention
And a worthy shepherd can’t be found.

How long can the tapestry, once honored and revered,
Remain in place upon the walls that form the room
Which shelters us from the visisitudes of living
In a world of hatred and divide.

It must not crumple to the floor, cut loose from
What sustained it through the centuries,
Leaving walls with gaping cracks that let inside
The freezing winds of vengence.

Will there be a place to hide and recreate a loom
In hopes of managing to learn to weave once more
And patch the rends in what was rescued from the floor
And seal the walls of hope again.
                                                         ljm
It just gets worse and worse.

The.      
                 ability.  
                          To
          see
  what                
can

Unburdened

Kamala Harris
repeats this
phrase to
ad nauseam
???
Are they her
words of wisdom
Her authentic truth
Is this an otiose
statement?
Or what!
But what
does it
mean?
Couple
that with
Her
Visage
Façade
Yikes!

Inquiring
minds
want to
know

She is a
heartbeat
away from
Becoming
The next
American
president
The woke
shudders
with
Anticipation


Inspired songs
1)Helen Reddy I am woman 1972
2)Led Zeppelin stairway to heaven1971
3)Simon and Garfunkel, I am a rock1964
BLT Webster’s Word of the Day
Visage 7-21-24
Refers to somebody’s face or ****** expressions. The general appearance of someone or something.
Otiose
7-20-24
A formal word typically used to describe either something that serves no useful purpose or something that has no use or effect


Can someone tell me what this phrase means
I would greatly appreciate it.
I posted this at 7 o’clock this morning. Since then Joe Biden has decided to step down and will not run for president and Kamala Harris  is stepping into the lead role for President elect. That was an ounce just today.

The grand ambition of love is to find “the one.”
and, of course, to be the one.

It’s a hard combo.

Finding someone amiable, who’s the best lover, your best friend,
confidant, emotional companion, intellectual equal and soulmate.

And, of course, it helps if ‘the one’ likes to dance
and has a little piña colada money too.

And when do you know you've been successful - in year 50?

It’s the holy grail, the age-old dilemma of love and desire.
