The Laureate-My Poetry Sites

My Thirteen hundred verses
display both smiles, or curses.
but it is always up to you
the hue with which you chose to view.

The Laureate-To The Donald

If you failed to first impress
by statements said without finesse,
the Gordian Knot
that you begot,
Is hard to cut to fend distress.

The Laureate-Voters Need Wisdom

Wisdom to pause and alter course.
Wisdom to talk in lieu of force.
Wisdom to learn from Mankind’s past...
and wisdom to vet ere you endorse.

The Laureate-Bias

The biased minds build walls quite strong,
though bias isn't always wrong,
Minds unfettered can fly free,
and can see the eau de vie.

The Laureate-Mores

Parents, teachers!  You're tasked to guide...
our mores must with you reside.
Babe to adult and far beyond...
give advice when orbs collide.

The Laureate-Small Business Rules

When politicians pass a law,
with provisos filled with awe,
they build no road to progress...
to tyros they erect a wall.

The Laureate-Try Again!

If, at first, you don't succeed
redefine the rules to heed,
for oft the problem was defined
when Time's scant knowledge can impede.
