Twas the night of the Crossing

Slept the Hessian in Trent

With no way to know 

They were 'bout to get bent

All of a sudden

Arose such a clatter

Before our cannon the Hessian did scatter

To the patriots spoils of victory were won

900 prisoners and all of their rum. Arrrr!

The Gleeful P

T'ey see us rowing..

T'ey Hate'n ..
 Patrol'n 
Try'n t' catch us dirty 
Try'n t' us catch dirty 
Try'n t' us catch dirty 
Try'n 
         t'
            Catch us
                       Dirty

 . 

Our strokes be so smooth 

(Yo ho!)
and silent.. 
So quiet.
T'ey  don' know we be comin'..
By t'en.. it be too late
By t'en.. it be too late
Ye
       cutlets'            
                   at t'ere
                            t'roat

And Further More!

HAKA! The appropriate response to the MAGA's racist regime!

Hidden Gaze

Her graceful form

Stays in my brain

At times I think

that I'm going insane

When I see her

I play it cool

Cause loving her

Breaks all my rules

*********

When no one's look'n

I sneak a peek

Knowing I

Must be discreet

Lest someone sees

An admiring gaze

I turn my head

And look away

*********

It gets awkward 

When our eyes meet

I keep it formal

When we greet

At times it's hard

 for me to accept

Best not to make a move

I might regret

*********

Help me

**

Help me

TAKE A STAND FOR SCIENCE

Based on data from 2018-2020, showed China had overtaken the US in overall science publication numbers.

 

The Litany of Fear with commentary

I must not fear.
   Do not 

Fear is the mind-killer.
   Of rational thought

Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
   Of democracy

I will face my fear.
   Of the other

I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
   Acknowledge it

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
   See its' genesis

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
   Liberation

Only I will remain
    And act with conviction
