Covid and Its Variants

From whence has come this vile disease?

The Lilliputian Erinyes

may be a cruel penance served,

much like The Toils of Hercules.

 

Martin Luther King Remembered

Just fools would judge from naught but skin

in lieu of what’s contained within.

If souls were bared for common view,

how few would bid them enter in.

 

Greed

There is no worse a sin than greed...

many men died to sate that need.

 The need for power absolute,

and wealth to craft transgressions moot.

 

 Man must survive this century

as Nature extorts her fury.

                            The greedy must now realize        

powers are moot if our race dies.

 

Friday’s Senryu-Luck

Take a chance on luck?

Win and you may be dumbstruck...

thoughts now face havoc.

 As We Age

As we age and hair turns gray,

we fear our goals may fade away.

There’s little time for wealth or fame.

Help progeny from coarse not stray.

 

Our Crisis

Our crisis, anger management,

fury loosed to passion vent.

From Covid we can’t walk away,

for death can be it’s consequent.

 

We can’t let weapons, gun or knife,

be sold to those who threaten life.

Some may note the mentally sick,

and if controlled we’ll have less strife.

 

 Laws Have Flaws

If politicians pass a law

that tell miscreants not to call,

but the shysters find some holes

through which the crooks can crawl.

Do not let politicos

ever pass fiascos.
