Who came up with the idea of female (NOT normally male) #ballet dancers going en pointe &, thus, making their careers so much more painful!? My #peom, with #photos, mentioning this - "A Second Ballet" https://walkaboutsverse.blogspot.com/2010/05/walkaboutsverse-192-of-230.html

When we tell you
through sheer force of hyperbole
that only through war
can peace be achieved
we are asking you to believe
in embracing contradictions
easily explained
if you buy into the concept
that conflict is big business

Blessed be the weapons makers

The AI cannot launch your weather balloon
Nor change the sheets in your hotel room
Doesn't care to keep you alive
It has nothing to allow the world to thrive

But alas the billionaires never learn
They want more money, the earth to burn
No firefighters in your forests with rakes
This entire nation they will break

Crypto grifters, scammers all
Watch them roll in money, while the world does fall
Is there a solution, alas, who knows?
History does say, evil monarchs the people will depose.

Let America Be America Again BY LANGSTON HUGHES

No Regrets

When one's satisfied
It's hard to look back
And wish to change anything

My trauma
The things that hurt
The things that numbed
Happened

But now we're here
Us three
Under the oaks
Nestled in snow

You let me be me
Sharing all I feel
No need to justify
The space I take

I'm wiser now
And we have our family
So no regrets
Just acceptance

When in London
Look for a bus stop or bin
For that is the place
You find what borough you are in

Bye Bye Pacifer

Thank you for your service
Helping with nervous urges
Pop! into the mouth
Baby lets go of all doubt

Like a wanderer at an oasis
A bird set free of its cage(s)
The sweet taste of a mango
Or finally dancing a tango

But the dentist says we are through
Or your tongue might become untrue
Not pressing enough on your palette
Thanks to this bad little habit

So we say, "Paci bye bye"
Even though some of us cry
Momma will bounce you instead
Dance you gently to bed
