A couple of love birds
2016-12-24
by donbusking

Love is a most wonderful journey.
Oh thrilling quake
Knock knocking my socks
Flying brisk and clear
Towards solid ground.
With caring friends and family sharing
I love you most of all
My heart keeps telling.

You're fired.

No you're fired.

No you are.

Am not.

I know you are but what am I?

You were right and I was wrong.

Kiss my arse, we'll get along.

At one point #Democrats will be required to participate in #democracy.

This experiment is not a #spectator sport.

Practice now because y'all be #needed and won't be sitting on the #bench for long.

One way or another.

Brown or black colored folks in blue states matter to vacationing majority Republican party of FrankEpstein.

FEMA calls to Alaska aid are silenced by billionaires media.

Too little too late another Texas flood avoidable female children killers scenario.

Resist US ICE Gestapo draining resources.

Win win.

Majority #Republicans can promote lowering #taxes as true other than for #billionaire backers.

My #Heritage is also French #Canadian and #Acadian, basically the old guard European invaders who arrived in Nova Scotia in #1604.

Safe happy waves from #Canada, French, #Scottish, #Mikmaq this is how we did it 400yrs ago.

#Democracy and #US #Constitution rhetoric is a piece of Canadian #history.

US taxes already pay for ICE salaries.

Red carpet treatment is something a war veteran earns.

ICE are simply bullies and thugs following mafia Don.

Didn't I see photos of MAGA wearing diapers in the last election.

Play shitty games, win shitty prizes.

The world is watching, marching in support of next weekends protest against fascist politics,

Cruelty and violence to silence innocent bystanders labeled as crooks and monsters.

Fear can only be vanquished by standing up and facing bullies together.

Alone we will be crushed.

Great quote. Gives perspective.

White supremacy and fascism walk hand in hand with ICE billionaires and majority Republicans extended vacations with perks.

Slave labour the law or outlawed.

Yeah. I get it.

Most of my closest #photos are #blurry.

That's when the law of numbers kicks it in the cajonas to get a few decent results.

Would be smarter if I took the time to use my tripod and timer.

Speed and efficiency vs quality and expertise.

Father-in-law shot by Nasis and survived.

Will our children become MAGA-Nazis?

Our ancestors died and killed for us to follow their example.

For our children and their children.

Death and tyrants walk hand in hand.

For a visual seek out the EpsteinTrump artwork placed in front of the Whitehouse in DC.

U2 stuck in the moment
Song I listened to recently

Was written by Bono
And Edge as the result of pain
From the loss of the INXS
Lead singer Michael Hutchence.

Their music is a memory that refuses to be ordinary for my part.

Thanks for the quote.

I'm a fan of reading them.

Go on

Some say as I once did
When the leaves fall
And their colors scream
Their final breath
The world has become
Darkness and dread.

I'll fight and struggle
With good and bad,
Somber and lighthearted
Obstacles and fears.
But Halloween, the Mexican celebration of life goes on.

Thanks for sharing poetry and nature photo.

the fruit doesn't fall
far from the tree
dangling on a twig
with curling dry leaves

I remember clips on TV
Of Vietnam correspondants.
I never imagined back then
That ICE would be our Vietnam.

Soldiers protested in the streets.
Peace and love were posted on signs.
Politicians made us believe
Their lies using our media.

This backfired when troops filmed exposed military Nazis.
