Grief Poured Down

 GRIEF POURED DOWN

Grief poured down on the people

            Like a relentless waterfall.

The Emperor had chosen them,

            On a careless, passing, whim,

To suffer his latest atrocity.

            ***************

The people had committed no crime.

            They kept silent and worked hard.

It was just their time.

            Perhaps, on another day,

If he had not passed their way,

            They might have lived another day.

But, today, they had to pay.

I Want Your Juice

 I WANT YOUR JUICE

I want to taste your juice.

I want to taste your juice every day.

A sweet and juicy jelly roll

Like you

                Should be tasted every day,

And every day,

                A different way,

More juicy,

                More succulent,

                                Than the previous way.

I want your juice to fill my mouth.

I want your juice to drip from my lips.

I want your juice.

Calling Dr. Oz

 CALLING DR. OZ

The Emperor is an ancient old fart

Completely lacking a heart.

It's also a crying shame

He has a peanut for a brain,

So he isn't very smart.

A Time of Crisis

 A TIME OF CRISIS

Now is a time of crisis.

Our danger is not from ISIS,

Nor from Marxism, Islamism,

Or any foreign ism.

It is from our own insane Dionysus.

Regime of Lies

 REGIME OF LIES

We live under a regime of lies.

It is a time that terrifies

Because, unless we fight back

Against the imperial maniac,

We will see how freedom dies.

Populist

 POPULIST

When the people resist

And form one mighty fist,

Overcoming differences

And different preferences,

That's called "populist."

Value Unity

 VALUE UNITY

The Emperor did quail

When he learned that empires fail.

When people value unity

Over petty purity,

The people will prevail.
