Back when they owned a home,
Their woods the homeowner roamed…
Found a large bra
Waiting for a thaw,
Hanging from a branch away from home.
–
Found a bag-full ladies’ shoes,
And a PLAYGIRL Mag. well-used….
What evil lurks
In all human works,
What horrible things Man exumes!
–
–Jonathan Caswell
Have no other gods before Him,
Not even by innocent whim…
It’s suicidal
To worship an idol,
Walking on ice very thin.
–
So periodically
He must sort his files to see…
What grabs his heart–
With that he must part,
‘Tis better than hypocrisy!
–
Culling out accumulations
Of any conflagrations,,,
That hold him fast
He will cast,
Out for sanctification.

(One Poet’s Opinion)
–
American stars and stripes,
Wave in fading light…
Spotlights glow
So we know,
Out flag is doing alright.
–
As for the country we cringe,
What is the next freedom impinged…
Ignored laws unliked,
Disapproval spiked,
The Administration acts unhinged.
–
And our leader of the free world,
Hates the country where he’s raising his girls…
They’ve openly proved
Suffering leaves them unmoved,
Unless there’s a news crew to twirl.
–
The “Change” is here,
Reaching for freedoms held dear…
Does what he likes–
Avoids open mikes–
Eventually his plan was made clear.
–
The ultimate patriotic sin
Is to tear us down from within…
Conquer-divide
While goodies are eyed,
The rest of us thrown in a bin.
–
The problem is, both sides
Seem to have similar prides…
Quietly taking
From upside-down shaking,
While laws are broken–each abides.
–
Who will call this to task,
Doesn’t seem to be any to ask…
Will any act
Or all are in fact
Willing to put we voters dead last?

JESUS WEEPS…!
(An opinion piece)
–
For all the children eaten,
For all His people beaten…
At least they’ll see
Eternity
Away from life so fleeting.
–
Those who sit by,
Should hear the tortured cry…
Of a god and his raiders,
Hateful invaders,
Who make victims want to die!
–
“Progressives” who don’t care a whit,
Yawn saying “get on with it”…
So we can win
Not looking at sin,
“That doesn’t bother us one bit.”
–
They call themselves upright,
But that won’t wash tonight…
Jesus weeps
While a ruler keeps
His vacation schedule tight.

(An opinion piece—of the Poet and those who truly care for others—photo ops. not withstanding!)
WANTED CLOSE COMMUNICATING!
–
The problem was both had hurts,
Committed by trousers and skirts…
Commitment to trust
Gathered rust,
Both thought the other curt.
–
Walls and grudges build
Despite commitments to yield…
Many a marriage
Is disparaged,
By combat in the field.
–
Obvious one doesn’t understand,
The other’s health demands…
One bends over,
The other takes over
And pushes one into badlands.
–
The verbose one wonders why
The silent one won’t try
to open
As they’re hoping,
To fill them in bye-and-bye.
–
The silent one’s thoughts run sarcastic,
The other one listens to drastic…
And half the time
Is not so inclined,
They both fall into that basket!
–
–Jonathan Caswell
PAID BY THE HOUR…TIME TO COWER?
–
Work is a wonderful grind,
Some can put it out of mind…
Till Monday’s ’round
When the hammer may pound,
For actions on Friday’s time!
( ?!? )
