INEXORABLE

I see a world ever in flux, no permanence;
New fads, new faces, living styles in transcendence,
Exotic tourist spots emerge from barren land.
Xanado, however, is underneath the sand...
Our old Uncle Sam, will he also run aground?
Rife are the rumors his huge debts can get us drowned!
A new world currency will replace the dollar,
Before we know it, we may fall down the cellar!
Let us, by all means, change--but change for the better.
Enlightened spending should make Uncle Sam greater.

IGNORANCE

'Introibo ad altare Dei...'
Go, blind fool, to God's place so you may see
Not the priest reciting his homily,
Only your own image--quite unlovely;
Realize now there is disharmony,
A gulf between you and God's company.
No excuses for you have heard His Voice,
Concede, be contrite you made the wrong choice.
Errors--our cross, but with God, we rejoice!

CARPE DIEM

Careful when you drive to town today,
Almost all are on a holiday.
Read the speed limits and please don't rush;
Picnics mean small sips, don't be a lush.
Eat to taste then walk around the park;
Do come home before the place turns dark.
I'd love to join your Labor Day lark;
Elderly people too need a break...
Maybe someday when my feet don't ache!

ENIGMA

Explore, if you can, our President's objective.
Non-action, I recall, was Lao Tzu's perspective;
I hope it can indeed lead to a miracle.
Give proof that Inaction acts like an oracle...
May the President heed Lao Tzu's exhortation:-
Ahead you could fall, if you don't change direction!

OSCILLATIONS

Our quanta revolve around their respective protons,
So too planetary groups whirl around their own suns.
Cosmologists have now confirmed that our Milky Way
Is spiraling and waltzing like a dance troupe in May,
Locked in a kind of cosmic dance around a Black Hole
Located at center like a magnetic Maypole,
An unseen force keeping our galaxy together...
There is likewise an Ark to which we are on tether,
Indulge my fancy, I shall call that Central Craft--Lord.
Our souls seek to fly aboard, but oft we break the Cord;
No end to our rebirth cycle, it seems unceasing,
So strive on Skep, lest your soul be found still unpleasing.

SEMPRE LIBERA

Sailing along Life's fast-flowing stream,
Ever in pursuit of my heart's dream,
Making enduring Success my goal...
Peace and abiding faith for my soul;
Reason is my strength, my steady oar,
Extra vigilance I must have more...
Leave the schemers and scammers alone,
If I need help, I don't need a phone,
Best to use my own mind's internet.
Edit, delete words I might regret;
Rid my craft of junk, mold'ring debris.
Always be light, O my soul, be free!

SHAME ON US

Should we not review and restrict our current usage of drones?
How many innocent non-combatants have been killed... who knows?
Apparently, these 'accidents' our President now disowns;
Maybe, our allies' robots or force majeure could be the cause...
Expertise in drone-direction and reliability
Of information that required the use of an unmanned drone
No longer suffice. There ought to be no possibility
Unintended harm could occur. Let's leave such targets alone.
Stop downgrading Uncle Sam, my icon of Nobility.

NO SHAME

New order of this age:- Just have no shame!
Our perks we must enjoy; Let's play the game.
Set an example, go on vacation;
Have a good time, time for recreation,
And never mind the expense; No pretense,
Martha's Vinyard greens fee is a pittance;
Extra putts will be needed, no offense...

OCCULTATIONS

Omniscience/predestination form a loose syllogism,
Compel Reason to question the reality of free will,
Creating a battle between Doubt and Belief, a schism
Unusually paradoxical and perturbing until
Light finally crept out like the sun from a total eclipse.
The fate of everyone is clear to God's Unbounded Vision;
All souls undeserving are turned back like comets in ellipse
To learn more...perhaps, to go thru painful reincarnation...
I fear Divine Truth is often hidden by Satan's legions,
Occulted by antiquated rituals and false religions.
No Faith can endure unless hard Science supports and conjoins.
Search, therefore, I urge you, for New Truths in God's Cosmic regions!

FEAR NOTHING

Fear not those callous Islamists,
Extreme radical 'jihadists'.
All terrorists will be punished,
Rogue killing bands will be banished.
No killer of inn'cent children
Or of non-combatant brethren
Treads on Almighty God's domain;
Heed not Satan's legerdemain.
It is written, "Thou shalt not kill!"
Nothing can be clearer:- God's will,
God's command we must all fulfill.

GESTALT

Galactic collisions do occur, some cosmologists say;
Example:- Andromeda galaxy and the Milky Way
Someday will embrace each other in a cosmic swirl and surge
To form a stronger system that will keep on seeking to merge
All stellar aggrupations it meets in the vast depths of space...
Let us also face sapient beings of any alien race,
The time for us has come to enter the Divine Gestalt phase.

DARK ENERGY

Dispersion of galaxies is by Dark Energy caused,
A force invisible that most cosmologists supposed
Repulses and scatters all distant galaxies outward;
Kinetic exponential acceleration toward
Extreme outermost limits of space. I think this force has
NEUTRINOS of undetermined accumulated mass
Exerting their combined gravity as an attractor,
Relentlessly pulling all systems clumped by Dark Matter...
God sent neutrinos first out of His Singularity,
Yet Man is still the acme of His Creativity!


(I imagine a humongous blast of neutrinos was first expelled
by the Big Bang and that, since these particles also have
mass, there must be a sufficient accumulation of neutrinos
surrounding the periphery of our space-time continuum
(probably ovoid in shape)capable of pulling galaxies and
nebulae outward in all directions--as confirmed by astronomers.
Let us not forget there are also universes around our cosmos
which exert their combined gravity on our galaxies.)

APHORISM

Absolute power, per Lord Acton, corrupts absolutely;
Probably untrue; hence, I disagree most resolutely...
Human life is transient, human power fleeting, soon over;
Only God has Unyielding, Enduring, Absolute Power!
Reigning monarchs, dictators, tyrants risk death by beheading;
If they abuse, their 'absolute' powers they'll soon be shedding.
Souv'reign, rule justly, lead bravely, and stay clear of Satan's Hole;
May God have Mercy on your imperfect, corruptible soul!
