"A BIT OF GOOD HUMOR
BUT NO ICE CREAM HERE"

International buffoonery

In the twilight of my years
I never thought
I see the day our leaders
Act in such Disgraceful behavior
By wanna be world mediators
What a joke.

Talking tough, making demands
Than cowardly apologizing
To the invaders
"I hope you don't Take it
Too personal"

What we really meant
Was we are wearing
Pretty Pink panties
Under these business Suits.

Walking away with
Their tails between their legs
As real world leaders
Laugh throughout Europe.

No one wants a war
But for goodness sake
Quit acting like
The bunch of clowns
You are.

We can't even manage our own national affairs let alone international issues and it hasn't mattered for 50 years who is in charge. Big brother is big brother and big business is big business. Patrick

..."if I ruled the World, everyday would be the fist
day of Spring'..."every man would be as free as a bird"...
and would say..."the World was his friend...there'd
be happiness that no man could end...no my friend...not
if I ruled the World"...sings Harry S...in the musical
Pickwick...to this days.
And this imposing notion attracts many of us...but
as you eloquently pointed out...the task weights heavily
on shoulders of those...that placed themselves in this
responsible position...do they see it as such...lyrics
for another song...Meanwhile...we have your poem...to think
about the contemporary World...
...prefer to rule my World with a...lighter touch!

We should never assume; it could have been a nice light blue panty , It just gets so confusing , now was it we pulled out of Iraq and ramped it up in Afghanistan? hmm which prez was that? Light footprint in war or is that just on are local beaches when it's convenient and green. ..... Good humor indeed!

I guess I'm on the wrong side but anything we can do to avoid bloodshed over stupid claims and foolhardy war many past presidents have dragged us into is good for me. I remember that he was one of the few senators who voted against going to war with Iraq. He's very well informed and knows very well what he is doing by keeping us out of little skirmishes that could easily inflate into full-scale war if saber rattling continues. Like Mandela, he knows how to turn the other cheek like a man and not like a wimp.

You said it all too well William. I believe "Actions speak so much louder than words" but lately I hear folks talking way too much at all levels and in the end nothing gets done! Our mayor of our town is one exception as his word is his bond. Too bad he is the exception and not the rule!
