Marginalized . . .

(from http://digitaledition.baltimoresun.com/infinity/article_share.aspx?guid=e6321562-5b65-44a0-909e-22af8824e01a)
". . . Looking at Trump this week, I see someone desperately making it up as he goes along, still unaware that millions of Americans now can’t help but see the disconnect between his words and the reality of their lives. But, as an entertainer, Trump can feel the cameras and the spotlight pulling away to gaze on others and that means marginalization for him. There is nothing a narcissist fears more than marginalization. Perhaps that’s why he held two press sessions Thursday and lashed out at the media in one of them. . ."

Stable . . .

(from A Very Stable Genius; Donald J. Trump's Testing of America by Philip Rucker and Carol Leonnig)

". . . The first couple was set to take a private tour of the USS Arizona Memorial, which sits just of the coast of Honolulu and straddles the hull of the battleship that sank into the Pacific during the Japanese surprise bombing attack in 1941. As a passenger boat ferried the Trumps to the stark white memorial, the president pulled (John) Kelly aside for a quiet consult . . . "Hey, John, what's this all about? What's this a tour of?" Trump asked his chief of staff. . . Kelly was momentarily stunned. Trump had heard the phrase "Pearl Harbor" and appeared to understand that he was visiting the scene of a historic battle, but he did not seem to know much else. . . "He was at time dangerously uninformed," said one senior former advisor. . . "

Brothers . . .

https://www.123rf.com/photo_79576450_stock-vector-cartoon-young-

smiling-twins-brothers-.html

I'll be your Blood Brother
By your side through thick and thin
I'll be your Blood Brother
Just as long as I don't have to bloody
My ha - ands

Bar rooms sure have a funny way
Of bringing loyalty out in a man
Buy a drink and tell a joke
And buddy you've got you a friend
But keep a good eye upon that friend
Because he really doesn't give two hoots
And don't say anything about his Mom
His girlfriend or his army boots

Walked into an auto-mo-showroom
I need some wheels but got no money to spend
When a guy with an ugly tie
Walks out and acts like he's my long-lost friend
I said hey Buddy I've a purpose here
And if you please I will accomplish my goal
So don't you slap me on the back again
Cause if you do I might just lose my control

So please be careful when you meet someone
Who'll make a promise at the drop of a hat
And don't provide them with encouragement
You will regret the day you offered him that
Cause everybody needs some empathy
But just how willing
And how far will they go
To really help you when the chips are down
Can they be trusted half as far as you throw them

Blood Brother
Live performance recorded at Bourbon Street on the Beach, Ocean City, MD, March 2020. Hear Blood Brother and more from OHO's 2018 release Gazebo

Why . . .

". . . Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley stepped down from Boeing’s board of directors after less than a year because she opposes government aid to help the aircraft manufacturer weather the coronavirus crisis, the company said Thursday. . . Boeing earlier this week said it is seeking $60 billion in government aid for itself and its massive supply chain because of the virus. . . President Donald Trump this week threw his support behind the manufacturer, saying: “We have to protect Boeing.”. . ."

Hunters . . .

https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/what-are-hunter-gatherers.html

. . . and Gatherers . . .

Everyone is searching for the truth
Why and what's the meaning of this life
And are we living proof of anything
Long ago we lost our tribal ways
Centuries have passed so much has changed
But time and time again we think the same
Like hunters and gatherers

Big machines and tiny circuitry
Airplanes buildings bridges fill the sky
Just look what progress brings to you and me
Scientific wonders do abound
Medicines cure many maladies
There's progress all around yet in some ways
We're hunters and gatherers

And after only these few thousand years
We've ceased to look for answers in the sky
We can no longer live with all these lies
So long accepted without asking why

Whether we approve or if we don't
Everything we know and love will change
There's just no way they won't it has to be
Ours is not to run or disbelieve
Time to face the facts don't be deceived
By people clinging to the past
Like hunters and gatherers

Highs & Lows . . .

https://www.childmags.com.au/handling-the-highs-and-lows-of-toddlers/

Just look at the morning paper
And tell me what you see.
Is something very wrong
Or maybe my eyes deceive me?
Somewhere in the local section,
A buried paragraph;
Someone who had the time to care
And the character to act.

The higher the highs,
The lower the lows.
The older I get
That's the way that it goes.
The more that I think that I want
The less that I need,
Because I realize how precious
And how short
This time with you may be.

When you're young and your biggest worry's
What game you want to play,
Such innocence is just surpassed
By the naivete.
Take good with the worst
And better.
You know they're not the same.
Youth somehow brings them all together.
Different they are,
But subtle the shades.

Youth really
Is only wasted,
If never
You've tasted
All the bitter
As well as sweet.

I hope you don't misunderstand me
Or what I want to say.
It's nothing revolutionary.
Ignorance won't make this go away.
Nobody likes a busybody.
Nobody knows it all.
There's one thing I can tell you certain,
Take none for granted;
Short or the tall.

Highs & Lows
