While I can't say anything new

I can say something true:

Your very best friend

Will be you, in the end

So honor yourself in all that you do

Biblio biblio biblio mancy

A simple idea that sounds rather fancy

Just open a book, any book will do

To a random sentence, read it through

It might contain wisdom or it might not apply

But you can't bibliomance until you try

Rudeness is a weapon

A dramatic show of agitated threat

To disguise the lack of intellectual skills

They resort to a display like a gorilla beating his chest

Hoping to win by intimidation what they can not honestly come by

Using information and negotiation

This display of aggression has no traction in society

Where manners and mores are the grease that lets the wheels of progress 

Turn, baby, turn

Goodness can use evil

For the ultimate purpose of good

Goodness can not be contained nor stopped

But evil has an expiration date

Wickedness is unsustainable

While goodness, found in so many hearts

Lives forever, is the very fabric of society

Evil is trampled underfoot

While goodness rises on the wings of an eagle

And blesses each moment with liberty and kindness

For all

Spring, spring - What will it bring?

It could be about anything

Snow or a heat wave, rain or drought

We must wait to see

How this spring plays out

.

.

I have Spring in my heart

A spring in my step

This could be

The very best Spring yet

.

.

I first saw one robin

Then the whole flock

All is working flawlessly

On our Mother's clock

PLAN B

.

.

The vulnerabilities of a system become obvious

When there is a failure - sometimes a catastrophic failure

Of the current system

So if you have failed, even spectacularly

Over a long time

YOU ARE NOT THE FAILURE

The system might have failed

Perhaps a flawed system, perhaps misdirected efforts

On our part, based on the information available

At that particular point in time

There is a weak point in any plan

Which can be analyzed and fixed

As long as you don't become the failure

You can become the fixer and overhaul the thing

Or put it in the round file

A new path to success always opens up

For the resilient one

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

Nobody wants to be the fly in the ointment

The traffic jam on the highway of life

The pimple on the ass of progress

We mostly go along to get along

Preferring to not rock the boat and make waves

Until

A real and credible threat

Rears it's ugly unconstitutional head

Then we are prepared to stand up

And use every tool we can muster

Oh we might look like ordinary citizens

Going about our daily routines

In our chest beats the heart of a Patriot

We are a hidden militia, hidden in plain sight

We will not give up our rights without a fight

If we must take to the streets we will - to express

Our dissatisfaction with government actions

We hold these truths dear to our hearts and mind

Together
