Childish Memories

Jack is nimble,
Small as a thimble,
Just like his friend Tom,
Whose last name goes by Thumb.

Raining cats and dog,
Better than warts and hogs.
Though rain won’t go away,
Thinking of Rebecca’s sunny day.

Still with hundreds of kids
All crammed in a Keds,
That old woman makes enough soup
To last until they droop.

He goes by Rumpelstiltskin
With such an evil grin,
He’s known to be mischievous
And can be so devious.

Tales so wondrous,
Fond memories
Of my friends,
Invisibles and pretends.

Inching close to him –
her ring fades in the twilight.
Shadows hide her sin.

Scarlet-lettered girl.
Tongues wagging, fingers pointing –
I’m glad I’m not her.

His ring gleams bright gold.
Power gives him what he wants.
Women sell their souls.

Toxic talk at whim –
entering and breaking hearts.
I wish I were him.

Identical sins.
Men being men; it’s all right.
Cast stones at women.

Cult of Evil

see, hear, say no evil

Farewell, my lovelies,
Death is inevitable,
Just drink the Kool-Aid.

Jonestown, Guyana
Misplaced trust turned tragedy
Jim Jones’ legacy.

Lies cultivated,
Zealous believers’ blind faith
No hope comes from fear.

Despair guaranteed,
Dysfunctional family,
Disguised as normal.

Rooted in evil
ISIS is an example,
Beware the devil.
