flowers on wednesday...

let's have our flowers today instead of waiting

I need something pretty

we all need something pretty

life is getting incomprehensible and very very scary

police in the streets in RIOT gear

when there are NO riots

images going out into the world of peaceful people

sleeping or sitting quietly

dragged and hit and bloodied

 it isn't in some far off country where we can say

oh well that's there and that's what THEY do

no

NO

it's here

just up the road

from all of us

people with rights

people given the power to speak freely

(HUH)

and the right to protest in a nonviolent way and to assemble

and we see what happens when they do just that

it isn't right

it shouldn't be happening

but it is and nothing seems will stop it

but once again let's pay attention to the man with all the girlfriends and sleazy ways and greasy pizza

let's give him all the time he needs to gross us out

let's hear one more time about the fame hoar's and the people with no education and way  too much money

people who don't deserve a minute of attention

and let's ignore those trying to make a change and improve

and educate

let's just ignore them

and spend time on the child molesters who were ignored coz god forbid the football team suffers and the "brand" too

and now...

which is what set me off ladies and gentleman

...let's listen to the radio

now beginning to play Christmas songs

and all the other songs

and then in between

Adele and

Silver bells

and

John Lennon and

 Jingle bells

lets' listen to a song

with words

like this

Robert's got a quick hand.

He'll look around the room, he won't tell you his plan.

He's got a rolled cigarette, hanging out his mouth he's a cowboy kid.

Yeah, he found a six shooter gun.

In his dad's closet hidden in a box of fun things, and I don't even know what.

But he's coming for you, yeah he's coming for you.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, baby run, outrun my gun.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, baby run, faster than my bullet.

pumped up kicks are shoes apparently

it's a song about school shootings

you know the happy stuff of life

and it's having the hell played out of it

incomprehensible

so wrong on so many levels

what's the symbol for

 head shaking

:{

this is what I was doing when the

---- hit the fan and I put pen to paper

so to speak

holly leaves and berries

I found the one above in a drawer

and sort of

back engineered

 it

to make this

in a different colour

and the

berries too

sometime recently

somewhere

I saw a bush with purple berries on it

so I made a leaf and some berries

shame all the rest couldn't be as cute

see it's best to leave real life out

and just pretend that all we do is the hooky stuff

I hope it isn't ....

but...

.......................................

have a good

time of the day
