I think that Jimmy Carter A true and noble man Should monitor the voting Check on ballots being scanned Watch over our elections The suppression of our votes Long lines, few polling places Jimmy Carter, that’s no joke! I pray that Jimmy Carter will Monitor our elections I trust he’ll keep them honest while We’re making our selections When there is no paper trail And lines 5 hours long Votings not for weak or frail Be Jimmy Carter strong! The man can still build houses Even though he’s 91 Please watch those ballot boxes Or Democracy is done!

# shackled to a notion rubbing through wrists in rusted remains of beautifully easy it's a slow bleed through insults slung in fear the unmaliciois only noticed in hindsight calling the innocent a ***** doesn't breed hate from love the duke-yeilding cowardly lion flings back like a monkey ## breaststroking a marathon in tears wading through pain I never caused pelted with double-barrelled denial THIS IS NOT WEAKNESS there is no waver on my solid ground torn flesh and compound fractures cannot break harder than history still, gavel strikes in sucker punched cracked ribs that look like a past that ain't mine ### keep hacking off pieces maybe I'll fit into those pretty boxes your liars left as gifts nasty reminders that trust has sharp teeth maybe that's just you biting back any hand that gets too close pandering in placating platitudes ain't my bag flattery fails to flounce from unfettered friends #### can't be beat into submission with unspoken broken rules can't run from a truth in plain view this is what it looks like to believe what you know over what you've lived I'm not running I'm not biting back I'm not going anywhere then again, why would I I'm not the one afraid to love you https://soundcloud.com/user-166761247/a-fourth-in-time-to-cracked-selections-of-music

a fourth in 3/4 time to cracked selections of music
A group show in a city church. Nothing religious, but selections from an evening class occupying otherwise vacant space: only a tomb here, an extravagant memorial there. These are 'advanced' painters, and decoding their statements, examining their work, it's possible to imagine daily lives where art lives in the spare room. Lewis paints you know. After Laura died, and with the children distant, he did this course in Norfolk - oils I think. That large landscape in the sitting room is his, all sky and salt marsh. Jayne is studying the disorder of ******* dumps, the contents of skips, what's left after a fire. Her photographs she prints herself you know. She says she loves to control the image, chemically, and you can tell. And more and others, their 'work' holding stories, other worlds of imagination and depths of looking; the silent collecting of things, photograph after photograph, the tidy sketchbook (with last week's life class experiments). And yet and yet at the group show the finished pieces glow in this badly-lit corner of a city church where few visitors venture - but you must see this. It's good, arresting in conviction and purpose. This is art without artifice, reticent with meaning, intense with intention, good, affecting, good well-chosen tutor-curated; good enough to come back to. Consoling? Yes, consoling. I needed consoling. It consoled me. I was consoled.

Planting excitement upon us, My daughter asks how to thin the beets. "When the plants are three inches tall, Pick the weaker ones and pull them up," I say. "You'll take out two thirds of the young plants So the rest can grow." I see a troubled look upon her face, And realize what I find in myself.... The teacher's quandary: Picking whom to keep, Whom to cull... We put our love into them all. Watching for first and tender shoots, Celebrating as the fledgling leaves appear, Not thinking of a time ahead, Dreaded time to thin.... Teachers are reluctant to cull, Building emotional connection, Providing loving direction, Promising success to all.... Then come the standardized tests, The  team selections, The popularity contests, The invitations to slumber parties, The division of elites, The rising of divas, The rostering of first teams... The separation of pariahs begins, The promise we made to early learners ends, Superiors, exultant, drown out the tears Of those left standing by the fence, Excluded from the chances to advance. Standing in the seedling beds, Spring breezes rustling tender leaves, I turn to Kate.... "It's never easy.... But if we don't  thin the beets, The beets will not develop Beneath the leaves." These damnable analogies arise Infrequently these days, And I am standing in the dirt, Black soil upon on my hands, Wondering about survival of the weak, The treatment of humans and young plants, Pondering humane ways to honor every student In which I am investing... Wishing I could see the end of high stakes testing....

About three years ago I visited the Cavern pub on Matthew Street. My friend Ian Prowse runs the open Mic night. They have two rules. No cover versions and three songs maximum. I hadn't been for a while and was immediately set upon by Ian to sing a song he likes that I wrote. So when the time came. Up I got and sang. After I went to the bar, my nerves shot. I ordered a drink and a lady approached me and said how much she enjoyed it. We chatted and she asked was I there every week. I said sadly no I have other commitments. She then said she would be back next week as working in Liverpool again would I like to meet up for a drink? . I agreed to meet at 7, Matthew Street. I had just met Heidi. The next Monday I finished work. Jumped the train to James Street and there she was. I asked had she eaten yet and she hadn't. So we went to a little Thai place on South John Street. We sat down ordered a bottle of white wine and made our selections. By the time we had finished the starters there was about 1cm of wine left in the bottle and she was very chatty and loud. Much to the delight of the couple on the table next too us who seemed to hang on her every word. The main course came and went as did the second bottle. I still hadn't got halfway into my second glass. Now truly smashed she says "I suppose you will want a BJ after this?" The lady on the table next too us almost choked, her husband let out a laugh and I said, I know not why, "That sounds nice, but I was looking forward to the Apple pie with ice cream to be fair." That was it for the couple next to us. His wife almost had an embolism and he laughed his head off. Heidi got up threw her napkin on the table, downed her glass of wine in one, announced to the fellow dinners "He's not getting laid tonight" Turned, almost demolished the table leaving, and stormed out. The couple next to me now in tears, the waitress comes to the table and asks "Err is the lady coming back?" I reply No I don't think so. She then asks would I like dessert? Before I can say a word the chap on the table next to us says "I hope you have apple pie and Ice cream for the poor guy" The waitress said "No" and that finished it. Three tables of people laughing relentlessly. I sat and had melon ***** and they chatted like we had known each other for years. What of Heidi? She was never to be seen again.

~For Lila and the others~ there exists a subset of us, those who for whatever reason do not write, but “just” repost other’s work Above see the word Just emboldened for this selfless task is justice inherent For this act of bringing others to our over constrained attention is an action of justice, or more profoundly doing away with injustice  of our human limitations We could spend days entire pursuing the works of others, but life and the extraordinary demands of writing anew, when the spirit is upon us, are oft unable to spot, isolate, and highlight capture the best of the rest, and bless those who reorient our eyes away from our own bounded rivulets, to the tried and truly, away from habitual familial familiar good stuff, but bring us revelations of gems, caught within the mass maskings of missives that grows hourly, exponentially to out attention, to reorient our attention, to their filtered selections Let us say in unison then a blessing of gratitude to The Reposters: Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Ruler of the Universe, who has granted us life, sustained us, to give thanks to those who enable others, to reach us this season

THE RE~POSTERs
Marriage: A close intimate union. The days of dreaming are over because that day is here. We are about to become witnesses to the words that we hear. The two will become one, Fire and Desire.....Rick James and Teena Marie. My desire is for you to finally become Mrs. B. A picture of beauty in your wedding gown. The groom is looking like he just stepped off the cover of G.Q. Somebody go get the Four Weddings crew. Royalty has just touched down. This is how it is supposed to be... The tears break formation and begin to run as I watch you come to meet me....on the moon. We enter this kingdom together, but it's more than just two. The covenant becomes final when we both say "I do." Words have the power to make two become one. You'll realize this when you sit and watch the sun kiss the horizon. After the ceremony and honeymoon is when the marriage really starts. The manual has changed....so now there is a new set of directions. Please grab the updated version and become familiar with the selections. Words can become weapons, so before they depart..... Remember God didn't create people with bulletproof hearts. Let these words become a source of inspiration and allow the power they provide to be a source of motivation.

Wedding Wisdom
You can only spend so many hours in labs, study groups and classrooms - under relentless, fluorescent lighting - before you start feeling life withdrawal. When I hit that stresshold, I need to rebalance myself. I could go to the New Haven harbor - I find the ocean endlessly relaxing - or for a quick fix, I can always rely on the warmth of multicolored product packaging. For the last one, a grocery store will do. I’ll walk the bright, prismatic cereal aisle, and run my finger gently along the gratuitous, rainbowed variety of selections. It’s a soothing gesture that I repeat several times. A reminder that there are still beautiful, shiny things out there, on demand, in the uncomplicated, non-academic world.

the comfort of rainbows
Bedside table minds clean paper Pen at the ready, lying in wait for wording as I wait for the sandman Thoughts pole vaulting at high speed tossing, and turning then settling unable to make it over the top Mind frozen in time with selections untamed uneducated words, hitchhiking around my head, seeking new adventures on paper with other more interesting fellows Words stuck in the corners of my mind spring cleaning energy is needed here to pull them out of their aerobics class Forcing the words down my right arm in Gymnastic style movements out of my pen they stream endlessly inking up the page in the stillness But I dare not move to switch on the light for the theme will be broken for all time

Spring Minding (1993)
Chance Operations are methods of generating poetry independent of the author’s will. A chance operation can be almost anything from throwing darts and rolling dice, to the ancient Chinese divination method, I-Ching, and even sophisticated computer programs. Most poems created by chance operations use some original text as their source, be it the newspaper, an encyclopedia, or a famous work of literature. The purpose of such a practice is to play against the poet’s intentions and ego, while creating unusual syntax and images. The resulting poems allow the reader to take part in producing meaning from the work. The roots of using chance operations to generate poetry are generally traced to the Dada movement in Western Europe in the early and mid-twentieth-century, involving writers such as André Breton, Louis Aragon, Tristan Tzara, Philippe Soupault, and Paul Éluard. The Dadaists were deeply interested in the subconscious, and they believed that the mind would create associations and meaning from any text, including those generated through random selections. In one section of Tzara’s “Dada Manifesto on Feeble & Bitter Love," he offers the following instructions to make a Dadaist poem, here translated from the original French by Barbara Wright: “Take a newspaper. Take some scissors. Choose from this paper an article the length you want to make your poem. Cut out the article. Next carefully cut out each of the words that make up this article and put them all in a bag. Shake gently. Next take out each cutting one after the other. Copy conscientiously in the order in which they left the bag. The poem will resemble you. And there you are--an infinitely original author of charming sensibility, even though unappreciated by the ****** herd.” The use of chance operations in contemporary poetry has been used most famously by the international avant-garde group Fluxus, poet Jackson Mac Low, and the poet and composer John Cage. A good example of a poem that was written using chance operations is Jackson Mac Low’s “Stein 100: A Feather Likeness of the Justice Chair," which also includes Mac Low’s explanation of the methods he used to compose the poem.

Shopping Decision
1.) Waking up alone Saturday morning means not having to get breakfast hung-over for anyone but yourself. 2.) Cleaning your room is optional. 3.) Books are so much better at pillow talk. 4.) Taking the stairs will do more wonders for your body than elevator hookups ever will. 5.) It is a blessing to have no one but yourself to debate with over Netflix selections on a Sunday afternoon. 6.) Choosing true friendship over a hasty ****** will always be the best decision. 7.) Music provokes the heart when you’re with someone, but provokes the soul when you’re not. 8.) Crying over things other than men gives you a better understanding of life’s meaning. 9.) Sometimes you discover things you thought were lost forever when searching long and hard for your key, because without it you have no where else to sleep. 10.) Contrary to the hand of another, a pen will not let go.

The papers are wet with ink. Russia is losing it's war. North Korea is swamped with the Covid. Tucker is backpedaling his replacement theory. Finland and Sweden are enrolling. Armament shipments are making a difference. The Pope is apologizing. That needs repeating: The Pope is apologizing. (But why stop with the Aboriginals. Consider the Jews and Irish). Fossil fuels are on the decline. (plastic microchips are in our fat) I can still buy Roundup. Tobacco is banned in most public places here. *** is not. There are more drunks, and more behind bars, and in front. We have safe injection sites. I have robots asking me if I'm a robot. There are more tv stations selections. TV is not worth watching. LPs are making a comeback. Right to Life is Wrong for Many. ... and on... and on

The World Is A Double Edged Sword
Hey Fragments! a Haiku Contest!! Spring is everywhere. We want everyone to contribute to the first, "Quarterly Season Greetings Haiku Contest!"

Please, have those haiku in by the end of May No limit on the number of submissions.

Hey Fragments! a Haiku Contest!!
When you live on the wrong side of sixty You flirt with cold death every day, You **** sweet air in like nectar And you hold your breath and you pray, For tomorrow may bring a black tumour Or a spasm, or seizure or more... Then whatever you do, whatever you say, You’ll end up prone on the floor. For our time on this planet is temporary, Our time of enjoyment is brief, Just pull out the stops and let loose man Live it up, kiss your girl, take relief. Tomorrow is lost in the dreamtime, Today is the essence of being, So kick up your heels and spin all your wheels and send all those worries a-fleeing. When you live on the wrong side of sixty Your skin has a penchant to sag And no matter how hard you diet Your gut gets as wide as a bag. Your whit was once so exciting Your repartee so sharp Now you mumble and wheeze And occasionally sneeze And frequently squeeze out a **** Oh life was once so enticing The sparkle and crackle was there When you danced on the floor The crowd yelled for more And you dazzled with lights in your hair. Now the dance floor is silent and empty The music has faded away Just to have it once more My poor heart does implore ? ... But the crimson has faded to grey. Now you’ll think I’m buried in sorrow, Enmeshed in self pity galore But the fact of the matter Is served on a platter … I really don’t care anymore. For you see I’ve learnt a great secret, Discovered a pearly white truth.... That life is as free As a bird in a tree... And remorse is really uncouth! So no more do I wallow in sadness, No more do I tear out my heart, Instead I rejoice in my gladness And retrace all the steps from the start. For living’s a sequence of pictures To give or take as you choose, If your selections awry Then you’re lost in the sky ...you pick the wrong one... You lose! The sun comes up in the morning, The light erupts in the sky And the beautiful song of the blackbird Brings a tear of joy to my eye. The golden greens of the shadows The crystal glint of dew Encapsulates the rapture I feel on seeing you. For a friend makes life worth living, A smile a golden door To the promise of tomorrow, Oh! The future’s good ..once more. When you live on the wrong side of sixty Life’s lessons treat you right, You separate the wheat from chaff And celebrate the fight. You make the most of good stuff And embrace all the fun, You interact with positives .. DO THIS, AND FRIEND ….YOU’VE WON! Marshalg Mangere Bridge 21st January 2007

When You Live On the Wrong Side of Sixty

We began with little mutations, Harmless, or more so beneficial, We adapted to our love, With no methods of dispersal, People thought we couldn’t get any closer, But your behaviors changed and we began to isolate, We were stabilized so I hoped for fusion, But realized that overtime not even reinforcement could’ve helped, We had our Kingdom set up, And later we fell into a “Family”, But you classified me too general, Now I don’t know where I belong, My feelings for you were like the Cambrian, Sadly enough they became a catastrophe, You started selecting, Seeing me as worthless, But I knew I am not one to select, You looked at me like you’ve studied Phylogenetics, I was at the most top, But ended up at the bottom, You were not natural, but neither was I, What did our selections favor? And our relationship turned into cloud and dust, Sadly it collapsed, And you left me imprints of lies and hurt, And words preserved inside me like a cast, You ingested away my feelings, I was the pili so attached to you, But you were an endospore resisting all of me, You no longer knew what feelings were, And to you, I was an annual, Got replaced so quickly, But I shed tears where the oceans have formed, And supported you like the roots of trees, But you were a virus, A pathogen, A parasite, And I was the host, Blinded by your toxins, And my cells swelled in favor of you, You offered me and I gladly took, I thought I was an obligate, Surviving off of you, But I was too mindless to see the real you, And I was like the Archaea, Survived the harshest paths for you, But with a single expression you crushed my world, And like a Zygomycota you’ve molded our love away, And sadly enough I couldn’t evolve, With pain feeling like spikes inside, I am no longer the magistrate of love, And love is my killer.

Wearing glasses completely out of visions He is the man not for all seasons Always surrounded by crooks and pigeons Chosen for the post with all wrong reasons Haywire, chaos and panic on all positions Forever smirking on his thoughtless decisions 10 percent to 100 percent, guilty of social treasons Harder on Mohammedans but soft on Freemasons Apparently deaf and dumb, indifferent on honest opinions Democracy had a glitch but not for future selections Wearing glasses completely out of visions He is the man not for all seasons

“Oblivion Stooge”
Can I ask for love Without the romance Without the slow dance Without the holding of hands Give the kiss, a miss necklace and jewelries without the emotional abuse The manipulation we use like flowers or presents The chocolate selections The dinner pretension The relational misuse and the facade we choose When love in truth is the exception
