The Laureate-The Bomb

Every nation wants The Bomb...
it's force yields much esteem and power.
But North Korea and Iran
wish to make the whole world cower.

Those free to choose the men who lead
must select those with moral fiber...
who will protect all of Mankind
with the essence of the tiger.
[all can choose!}

The Laureate-Decisions

Options are chosen every day.
Choices oft are dark... or gray.
Know Yin and Yang forever vie,
and but your Chi you must obey.

The Laureate-Bias 62417

Bias most oft surrounds us,
with all that's heard, or said.
Take care, let it not drive us
from that which truth sought to embed.

The Laureate-To The Red Pols

If you foist laws upon our land,
for health and tax that will be panned,
you may as well now pack your bags...
the rich alone will praise your brand.

The Laureate-Kim Jong-un

History shows in quests for power
egos loosed oft self-devour.
For never can they sate their thirst
and all their spoils, in time, turn sour.

The Laureate-Grate Again

Trump promised he would make us great,
And that he has...If we  translate
that which it means to most of us
who find each eve teeth tend to grate.

The Laureate-Flag Day (Our Flag)

Symbol of all we hold so dear,
cover your hearts should it appear.
It bares to all the fealty
to mores you would e’er hold near.

The Laureate-Comey Said...Prez Sez

The Prez sez Comey's words but lie,
although pledged true to God on high.
If Prez, gives pledge, fore God...and all,
might he, on Twitter, vow deny?

The Laureate-My President 4917

You feel your tweets past vows augment,
but the results are evident,
Your high support declined o'er time
and need now your past gaffes repent.

The Laureate-The Arts

Poetry and prose
often can a heart expose.

The Laureate-Terrorism {England et al}}

Terrorism {England et al}
{Fright, Plight, Flight...or Smite}

Fear can, my friend, your ally be.
It peaks your essence cap-a-pie.
Few devils could this day prevail
if you control their force set free.
(...defines heroes) 

{From the book, Rubai by James E. Cox}
