This! “So you want to live forever?” Thermopylae Leonidas still cries “Persians, Come & get them!” #PoetResistance
Pope Francis prophetically speaks. Will American Catholics—60% of whom voted for a Marginalized-persecuting Trump—finally listen? Or will they continue to cry out “give us Barabbas!” trembling leaves in whom do you see Christ crucified? #haibun #haiku #PoetResistance
It is a grave sin to exploit the vulnerable, a grave sin that corrodes fraternity and devastates society. As disciples of Jesus, we desire to bring to the world the leaven of the Gospel. May we put God first, along with those whom He especially loves: the poor and the weak.
at my back window the first bush warbler’s face… “Long time no see!” うら窓やはつ鶯もぶさた顔 ura mado ya hatsu uguisu mo busata kao The bird migrated elsewhere for winter but now, in springtime, returns. haikuguy.com/issa/new.html

It's #HaikuSaturday. Please join in if you feel like it. There aren't any rules--just friends sharing #haiku and having fun. Everyone is welcome.
Thank you for this public service! Donald Duck, the dime store dictator & Oligarch tool, rises to the level of his own incompetence. Even as the market drops with each new cabinet pick. a putrid smell The Kakistrokrat-in-chief belches yet again #PoetResistance
A word Americans should know now more than ever: Kakistocracy- a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. Yes, there’s a word for it.

Donald’s loathsome cabinet picks continue to bear rancid fruit. blood moon the last withered leaves fall #PoetryResistance Trump Pentagon pick had been flagged by fellow service member as possible 'Insider Threat' (from @AP) apnews.com/article/8cd9f0…
“God is Love,” so “Love, then do what you will.” Therefore, “pour out” your life “like a libation.” Then you’re losing your life for Christ’s sake—& thus saving it. Kenosis how sunburst cherry leaves tremble #SpiritLed
You can all retreat if you like. I’m already under the sky & making new connections daily. But I’m staying here. This is where the fighting will be. This is where #writers, #poets, and #pathfinders like me will be. This is where the #PoetResistance will be. light remains now
The unseriousness of Donald Duck’s cabinet Quackery is hilarious—as an SNL skit or an Onion Special. Not IRL! Exorciate these picks. Defend those whom these incompetents will target. against a Hurricane of lies The truth #PoetResistance #TrumpIsUnfit cbsnews.com/news/who-might…
Nice grifting: QT an account dwarfing yours to boost engagement. But I’ll bite. Stating that Fr. Joe will be credibly accused of SA, without a shred of evidence, is practically the definition of bearing false witness. not triggered… legions of assholes encountered daily
I didn't bear false witness. But me being an asshole sure triggered you.
Be present, for God has told us that His name is “I am.” Not “I was” or “I will be.” Be present with those with us now, whatever their relationship to us. Be present with Jesus, for the Kingdom is among us. morning sky Cherry tree foliage still hanging #SpiritLed
Donald Duck quacks more Quackery. two heads for a new office of gov. efficiency One, a narcissist that paid $44B for Twitter & devalued it to $4B. The other, a narcissistic, failed POTUS candidate. fools & parted money these nominations #poetresistance #TrumpIsUnfit
Let me get this right, Trump is putting TWO people to oversee a department whose mission is…efficiency?
The absurdities mount for the President-elect. The jokes write themselves, but the harm these atrocious decisions cause are not funny at all. counting down the time until “Send In the Clowns” #poetresistance #senryu #haibun #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice
A TV Host for Sec of Defense A Billionaire and a Xenophobic narcissist are being asked to co-lead Government Efficiency Reparations for White people Proposed Mass Deportations w/o economic plan And yet you thought we were lying when we said that Democracy was at stake!
Gratitude opens our hearts. & an open heart is how we recognize that we are Christ—for he became one of us that we may be one in him. Let us live, now not us, but Christ lives in us. Dawn the sky brightens so quickly #SpiritLed
Too bad facts don’t care about your feelings, MAGA folks, right? But do enjoy this sudden disillusionment. There will be more. night fools & their money parted #PoetsResistance
Dear MAGA, I know many of you are upset at Trump's pro-war picks. You expected him to be anti-war. I hate to tell you but your favorite 'independent media' hosts were lying to you the entire time. Here's Trump's 1st term foreign policy: - increased drone strikes 432% - 2,243…
Hey #poetsoftwitter & #poets everwhere, Ready to put your art to good use? Join me in defending the marginalized and satirizing any that punch down on them—esp. the incoming #47. Let’s make the tag #PoetResistance trend! Tsunami standing before it with #haikai #poetry
Kenosis. Self-emptying. When we let go of the “me” within, we become the branch on the vine. What need have we of others’ thanks when we do what we must then? sunlit leaves radiating sunburst hues… work carries on #SpiritLed
Women, is this true? Because at the risk of mansplaining, I’m going to say that this isn’t true. Stockholm syndrome “& another one bites the dust…”
Every woman actually wants to be possessed. In this day and age, it’s either being owned by a husband or a boss. Women crave the feeling of being needed and depended upon. Our deepest longing is to give ourselves over, to fill and be contained by a worthy vessel. I,…
