Symbols and Dross v0.1

  • A movement by waves;
  • some of them braves; and
  • some of them knaves,
  • eventual betrays:
  • [1]
  • Don't be annoyed,
  • By words from the Freud,
  • Poles or cigars, or
  • Roosters from Mars.
  • In the Good Book,
  • something mistook:
  • some were erected,
  • and later corrected:
  • [2]
  • Rhyme without meter,
  • A typical leader,
  • Stabbing him stiffer,
  • In Julius differ:
  • [3]
  • Stranger yet still,
  • Amer-i-can thrill,
  • a test of will, and
  • Destiny fill:

[4]

  • Even more stranger,
  • Perceived as no danger,
  • The coconut tree,
  • Indubitably,
  • heavy heav-en-ly!:
  • [5]
  • What of a hammer?
  • Seeing not stammer!?

[6]

  • Same with a rock -

  • Oh what a chore!
  • Is it a weapon?
  • Defensive or steppin'?


  • Depends on the mind,
  • Its fears of unkind,
  • its degree of the blind,
  • and resources bind?
  • Soon we will find:
  • Once meaning of peace,
  • now must decrease,
  • This 4 Legged beast,
  • Formed from a cross,
  • yet only means loss.
