Cover . . .

. . . up

(from http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/paul-ryan-warns-if-dems-win-theyll-hold-trump-accountable)
". . . But it’s use of the word “subpoenas” that jumped out at me. . . What the retiring House Speaker seemed to suggest was that Democrats, if given any meaningful authority in Congress, would take steps to hold the president accountable for his actions. . . Or put another way, Ryan wants voters to back Republican candidates in order to ensure that the pro-Trump cover-up can continue on Capitol Hill. “Vote GOP in 2018,” the slogan effectively goes, “We’re against oversight and accountability for Republican presidents.”. . .

Beach . . .

Rhythmic waves in endless blue folds
Gently tumble consistently
And coat the creamy sand
Where both meet

Calmly, serenely,
The symphony plays
Irrespective of the day or night
And soothes all beings

Bosley Beach

Needs . . .

It's sweltering
As some may say
The heat
With the humidity
Leaves beads of liquid
On my skin
When barely
Making an effort

I'm not complaining
Rest assured
I find little fault
with oppressive conditions
Particularly when
Compared with other seasons
That require stratum
Of clothing for warmth

But during these Dog Days
While running amock
In my newfound freedom
I do, in my
Indeterminate wisdom
Discern the need
To keep the body
In hydration

As a result
I eat and I drink
In amounts
More than needed to suffice
My attempts to be comfortable,
Healthy, the like
Would be better assisted
If I could only get ice

Brothers . . .

From the pre-4th of July celebration (2018) at Bourbon Street on the Beach (Ocean City, MD) . . . Everybody Sing!. . .

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

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

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

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

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

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

Morton 2 . . .

One day, Morton the mantis was feasting upon a sumptuous array of beetles, grasshoppers and crickets when, off in the distance, he spotted what appeared to him to be, a most gorgeous lady-mantis in obvious search for food. This, thought Morton, could be the fulfillment of his every dream. A mate with whom he could share his insect bounty, and maybe even his very future, a prospect for which he always had yearned. The lady-mantis lured Morton with her pheromones. Suddenly, Morton felt an inescapable urge to dance. He danced and danced approaching her ever so closely. His dance brought him within touching distance of her and he found that she seemed agreeable to his close presence now. He began, without fully understanding how or why, to climb upon her back as she was much larger than he in size. Then, as conscious thought and action grabbed a backseat and instinct took over, the two became one in a timeless tango of passion and procreation. Then after a period, as females of the mantis persuasion often do, she bit off his head and devoured his corpse for nourishment.

Morton 1 . . .

(source: http://animals.mom.me/stages-praying-mantis-life-cycle-6282.html)

Morton the mantis came of age in, what seemed to him, an inordinately lengthy period of time. He dreamed, joyfully, of the moment when he and his mantis-mate would finally 'join' to lead a life of bliss (connubial and otherwise). Slogging through adolescence, Morton found himself larger in size than before; certainly larger than all of the other nymphs. He began to shed exoskeletons periodically and occasionally tended to be sluggish and unable to eat. Finally that annoying molting process ended at the beginning of summer, and Morton found himself to be a mature adult.

Beginning . . .

The reality is now starting
To sink into my prickly old brain
There will actually be
Opportunities now
To devote some attention to me

It's not that I'm totally neglected
'Cause commitments to other things teem
But at times I seemed
Truly disjointed
By conception of relevance deemed

Obligations have been requited
That were owed to compulsory things
Now the future is brimming
With options to choose
I sit perched at a new beginning
