in light of new revelations, perhaps my line in "American Anthemathema" should haver read "pedophilic cannibals" and not "pedophilic carnivores". Oh well, lost opportunity.

Never the less

Nevertheless we persist
we resist
we consistently rise on the tide
against the side
that would pridefully
lie to themselves and us
that their birthright
has left them atop
an imaginary steeple
above us, never the less
except in their delusion.

William F. DeVault.

new poem. #maga

monochromatic rainbows

their one-dimensional minds and hearts
dream of monochromatic rainbows
where the Sistine Chapel
had a fresh coat of eggshell landlord paint
in a world of plainsong
uninspired free verse
a universe of mediocrity

from Ukraine is a Woman, due out next month, my 36th book (my tenth in hardcover) something tenderly erotic, it woke me from my sleep and demanded I record it before I could rest. #poetrysky #booksky #author #romance #eroticism #love #passion I think this part of me is awake, once more.

At 66 years of age, Holly Hunter is cuter, hotter, and more transcendently attractive than a hundred sun-kissed 23 year old models. The new Star Trek series has reminded me of this. #startrekstarfleetacademy

Okay, just trying to keep this straight.
In defiance of US and International law we attack a sovereign nation and abduct their President and First Lady to be held for trial in the US. We have followed up with stated threats against that country's VP, and Greenland, Columbia, and Cuba. #Venezuela
