The Summer Day


Recommended Posts

Who made the world? 
Who made the swan, and the black bear? 
Who made the grasshopper? 
This grasshopper, I mean-- 
the one who has flung herself out of the grass, 
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand, 
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down-- 
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes. 
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face. 
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away. 
I don't know exactly what a prayer is. 
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down 
into the grass, how to kneel in the grass, 
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields, 
which is what I have been doing all day. 
Tell me, what else should I have done? 
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon? 
Tell me, what is it you plan to do 
With your one wild and precious life?

KEEP A-GOIN’

 

If you strike a thorn or rose,
Keep a-goin'!
If it hails or if it snows,
Keep a-goin'!
'Taint no use to sit an' whine
When the fish ain't on your line;
Bait your hook an' keep a-tryin'--
Keep a-goin'!

When the weather kills your crop,
Keep a-goin'!
Though 'tis work to reach the top,
Keep a-goin'!
S'pose you're out o' ev'ry dime,
Gittin' broke ain't any crime;
Tell the world you're feelin' prime--
Keep a-goin'!

When it looks like all is up,
Keep a-goin'!
Drain the sweetness from the cup,
Keep a-goin'!
See the wild birds on the wing, 
Hear the bells that sweetly ring,
When you feel like singin', sing--
Keep a-goin'!

Link? How long did it take? Did they trigger any sensors?

 

Well, if some federal agents with unlimited time and resources can breach the wall, then of course Mexican wannabe immigrants with nothing but the clothes on their back can as well!

Homeland security just cut right through a prototype section of the stupid wall with a hack saw. It's stupid. 

 

I bet you’re a man who doesn’t know a damn thing about tools. 

 

Hacksaws can be equipped with “metal” blades. That does NOT mean the blade is made of metal even though it is. It means it’s made for cutting metal. 

 

Hey, look everybody, let’s not plant trees because an ax can cut them down.

From what I can tell by pictures it would appear that the fence is either square tubing or pipe. My guess is that it has a footer to help prevent digging a shallow "tunnel" under it and the "slats" are filled with cement. It may even have rebar extending downward from the footer every foot or so to discourage digging. Keeping it upright would be a function of the footer and connecting the slats to each other.

 

The fence doesn't have to secure our border like a prison wall would secure a prison. All it needs to do is make it difficult to get over it, and take some time so that border agents can get there.

Liberal Hypocrisy

 

 

This liberal hypocrisy, makes me laugh,
With their one-sided, unethical minds.
They claim one thing, while living another,
Until they find the next soapbox, to climb.

 

And up on to it, they'll belly-crawl,
Because that's the natural way of a snake.
From up on there, they'll spew their drivel,
And not a lick of sense, does it even make!

 

Maybe it would, if they ever even practiced,
The same way, that they so blindly preach.
But what's good for their goose, is not for the gander,
So into Satan's dialogue, they further reach.

 

Out of both sides of their wicked mouths,
Their demons schizophrenically verbalize-
To the point that even their own loved-ones,
No longer know which is their truths...or their lies.

 

They cry out at the injustice, of little furry creatures,
Who's lives are ended in animal shelter tombs-
Yet, they fight for the right, of BABY HUMANS,
To be literally ripped and torn apart, out of wombs!

 

I believe the liberal mindset, goes deeper,
Clouded by their very own guilt and shame.
Because no one can be so bleeding-heart left,
If in themselves, they didn't hold some blame.

 

How can they yell out against the 'murder of war',
When they themselves, live not at peace?
For such God-less, soul-less, Faith-less people,
Have nowhere else to vent their twisted release.

 

So they attack the good and God-loving people,
Who care about a Country, gone so very wrong.
They blindly follow a traitorous party, who,
They misguidedly think, will make them strong.

 

They can't see past, their left-colored glasses,
So fogged up with their malice and hate.
I pray more of us, can see the right much clearer,
And save our America, before, it's too late.
