Why Change When It's Being Done Right? Political poster

Americans are 17 on the quality of life charts due to the way their politicians have structured American society. This will come as a surprise to most Americans who have been spoon fed the idea that America is the best of all possible places to live.

So I made the poster while thinking of all that the American lawmakers have done to impact the daily lives of the voters. (highlighted link to commentary by Farron Cousins at The Ring of Fire.)

If there are fair elections in the U.S. this year we may be able to vote the ones who have made life so hard on us out of office.  

It's up to you people, if you want more of what you have now vote Republican.  More war, more poverty, more violence against minorities, more racial discontent, more of all of what we have now.  If you want more of the same old same old vote for Republican and Democratic lawmakers who speak poorly about socialism. They will be more than willing to give you more of the same. Boy won't those who vote Republican be happy with more war, more homelessness, more racial animosity, more unemployment more low paying jobs, more expensive education, more expensive and more dangerous healthcare?

No they won't.  They'll blame someone else for what they have done to themselves.

(note the artist holds both Republican and Democratic lawmakers completely responsible for the condition Americans find themselves in.  While working on this I came across this address by Robert Reich.) It's worth listening to.

The Black Cat: poetry

The Black Cat

This afternoon

the black cat warmed himself

in a sunny part of the garden

where sunflowers had been planted

and harvested.

He rolled on his back

in a patch of catnip

planted for him between the sunflowers

and when he finished …

waited for the birds

who would come for the seed I put out.

He does it only when the sun shines;

he's never caught anything

and if I didn't feed him he'd starve

and he's not ashamed...

he thinks that's how it should be

and I agree.  

Spider At Work: a Serendipity Studios production

Today I spied a spider
repairing a web I saw him repairing 
yesterday.

Today I took some pictures. 
Some came out pretty good.,,
take a look.

Tomorrow's another day.

She's A Lot Like God (poetry sure to offend someone)

A poem I composed while waiting.

She's A Lot Like God

When it comes to time

she's a lot like God

for whom a day 

is as a thousand years. 

And when she says:

"I'll be there in half an hour";

I know there's time

for a couple more beers.
