Mother . . .

https://www.pexels.com/search/pollution/

Driving down the concrete beams
Looking around and it now seems
Mama earth is nowhere
Gone from your eyes

Hidden in the crust
Of man's scientific dreams
She is gone

Natural man took her natural face
Made it a strange and alien place
You can't bear to look
'Cause she ain't there

Our mother has been raped
And left to die in disgrace
She is gone
-Robert Lamm

Monday . . .

http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2013/09/the-
evolution-of-the-modern-day-calendar/

Are leaving on a Monday?
Have you made up your mind?
Is there anything left
That I can do to give me more time?
I’ve heard the old story,
It’s not something I said
If I didn’t say anything at all.

In the darkness I can see your form
As you lie there asleep.
Something’s wrong with this picture—
You resting peacefully,
I, in this heat.

I never suspected 
That you were a calendar girl.

Six days of the week
I’m working to please you.
But when we’re alone
You’re just making plans.
The pencil and that faded old notebook
Have taken away what has made me a man.

Was it Tuesday, was it Wednesday?
Am I wasting my time?
And how much does it matter,
As this thing ages, it still isn’t wine?
I still hope though, anxiously,
You can find in your heart
One more reason to give me another chance.

Sunday evening, and I lie awake.
Seems there’s no use in sleeping.
Heard the sound of the door behind you,
Now all I hear is the sound of you leaving.

Thank . . .

. . . goodness SOMEBODY is okay . . .  

". . . Speaking to Fox Business . . . Trump sprayed attacks with all the precision of 52 playing cards flung into the wind. He slammed Pelosi (“she’s got a lot of mental problems”), Joe Biden (“he’s mentally shot”), New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (“incompetent”), antifa (“scum”), former FBI Director James Comey (“a corrupt person”), and the news media (“the enemy of our people”). Referring to Gretchen Whitmer not by name but by “she,” he said that the Democratic governor wants “to be a dictator in Michigan.”. . . "

Three . . .

https://www.snbonline.com/about/news/strange-money-superstitions-from-around-the-world
. . . times - a charm?

(from https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/10/senator-perdue-deliberately-butchers-kamala-at-trump-rally.html)
". . . Perdue’s campaign tried to claim that the senator’s use of “Kamamboamamla” in place of Harris’s actual name was some kind of innocent oopsie. Perdue “simply mispronounced Senator Harris’ name, and he didn’t mean anything by it,” a campaign spokeswoman said in a statement — impressively managing to lie three times in 12 words: there was nothing simple about it; he definitely knows how to pronounce her name; and he definitely meant something by it. . ."

Variations . . .

https://www.123rf.com/photo_23013719_elephants-in-different-poses-on-white.html

. . . on a theme; an attempt to express.
Exploring potential melodic lines
While eschewing excess
And avoiding temptation of frivolous designs.

Rage . . .

 

http://montmorencyroads.com/index.php/services/road-types
There's anger, vexation,
There's pique and there's wrath.
Annoyance, resentment, displeasure-just half
Of the ways to describe pressure gauged;
When a limits been reached 
Or exceeded - Roadrage!

Always . . .

. . . and forever (to be expected, that is)
 

(from https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/520549-tax-records-show-200-companies-groups-and-foreign-governments)
". . . A New York Times analysis of tax records showed that more than 200 companies, special-interest groups and foreign governments have funneled millions of dollars to President Trump’s properties while reaping benefits from the president and his administration. . . Nearly a quarter of the entities have not been previously reported. . . Sixty patrons who promoted specific interests to the Trump administration spent almost $12 million on expenses associated with the Trump Organization during the first two years of Trump’s presidency. The Times reported nearly all of these customers saw their interests move forward. . ."
