C'mon . . .

. . . man . . .



Selfish though
I thought I were
I pale
If be compared

Though 'selfish'
May be incorrect
You're dazzling
I declare

Be purpose yours
Or for a profit
Too much weight
Is catastrophic

I only want
To be of use
While I remain
That's not obtuse

But now because
Ineptitude
In leading things
You're being shrewd

In my remaining
status now
The weight you throw
I feign allow

Or maybe not
It's hard to tell
And early still
Now to rebel

Merciless . . .


Merciless death strikes conclusively
True, many view it as the beginning
Of a new, 'eternal life' of some sort
But no matter how you slice it
Death makes life miserable
For those that survive
At least in the short term


Merciless

Contrast . . .

. . . to Parkland . . .


(from https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/we-just-have-heal-different-way-santa-fe-parkland-diverge-n876416)
". . . I don’t think guns are the problem — I think people are the problem,” Carvey, 16, a student at Santa Fe High School, said. “Even if we did more gun laws, people who are sick enough to do something like this are still going to figure out a way to do it. So it doesn’t matter.”. . . “No matter how many laws there are, you can always break them,” said Nora Tulo, 15, a student at the high school. . . “I feel we just have to heal a different way,” Carvey said of the difference between the response in Santa Fe and Parkland. “Their way was to make a change, march. Our way is we just need time, we need time to process, to get everything together, to breathe and understand.”. . . We’re not huge gun people, but we’re not for gun control. . . "

Knowledge . . .


(from https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/bill-gates-says-trump-asked-difference-between-hiv-hpv-n875286)
". . . (Bill) Gates . . .  described two meetings in Trump Tower in which he urged the president to become a leader in science and innovation, perhaps by accelerating progress toward an HIV vaccine.
. . . he asked me if vaccines weren't a bad thing because he was considering a commission to look into ill-effects of vaccines,” Gates said. “And somebody, Robert Kennedy Jr., was advising him that vaccines were causing bad things and I said, ‘No, that is a dead end, that would be a bad thing, do not do that.". . . There were laughs and groans from the audience after Gates added: “Both times he wanted to know the difference between HIV and HPV and so I was able to explain that those are things that are rarely confused with each other.”. . . Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection — affecting 79 million Americans, most in their late teens and early 20s —and can cause health problems including cancers. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) weakens the immune system destroying important cells that fight disease and infection and can lead to AIDS. There are vaccines for HPV but no known cure for HIV. . ."

Why . . .


. . . does this President:
a) know so little?
b) intentionally lie?

(https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ap-fact-check-trump-wrong-military-pay-ships-195757263.html)
TRUMP: (to U.S. Naval Academy Graduates) "Going to have new equipment and well-deserved pay raises. We just got you a big pay raise. First time in 10 years. We got you a big pay increase. First time in over 10 years. I fought for you. That was the hardest one to get, but you never had a chance of losing."
THE FACTS: That's not right. U.S. military members have gotten a pay raise every year for the past 10 years and several have been larger than this year's 2.6 percent increase. Pay increases in 2008, 2009 and 2010, for example, were all 3.4 percent or more.
TRUMP: "We have now the lowest number of ships that we've had since World War I, and very soon you're going to get to 355 beautiful ships. 355. That's almost a couple of hundred more ships."
THE FACTS: No it isn't. The Navy now has 283 ships.
And a 355-vessel battle fleet is not going to be achieved "very soon." The Navy plans to reach 355 in the 2050s while saying that could happen in the 2030s if it gets more money and extends the normal life of ships in the fleet.

Yours . . .

. . . alone . . .


The time that's spent
Is yours alone
The choice of how
Or where it's spent
Must be undertaken
With all the seriousness it merits
Like music, good or bad,
Once it's heard
It's gone in the air
Never again to be retrieved

Image . . .


(from https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/saudi-arabian-women-s-rights-activists-arrested-just-weeks-driving-n875771)
". . . Saudi authorities have detained at least six activists, including three of the country's most prominent women's rights campaigners, just weeks before the kingdom is set to lift a ban on women driving, people familiar with the arrests said Friday. . . As activists remain under pressure to keep silent, credit for reforms, such as lifting the ban on women driving, has largely gone to the king's 32-year-old son and heir, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. He has relaxed some of the country's ultraconservative rules by allowing women into stadiums to watch sports and bringing back musical concerts and movie theaters. . . Such measures, however, are more about boosting the economy and improving the country's image abroad, and less about promoting personal freedoms. The kingdom remains an absolute monarchy where protests are illegal and where the king and his son oversee all major decision-making. . ."
