“Passion is what adds so much value to life. And if you think about the things that you do, there’s so much juice potential for them if you do it.”
Roger Guetta
ACROSTIC POETRY
for the word • ENGAGE •
E nd the limping in and out.
N o one ever said it was easy.
G ang up on your soul and tickle it.
A stonish yourself, recall your childhood.
G rab it and feel it, recoil in its beauty

I Do Not Like The Men You Are
_______________________________________________
I do not like the men you are
Your work on healthcare is quite sub par
With years to think how to make it right
You toss us a plan of national fright
With millions about to lose any care
While tax cuts for the rich is what you cheer
By the actions you take you shall be known
From Atlantic waters to Pacific foam
In history books you’ll one day be shamed
For the millions who will perish by this act in your name

“I warrant they would whip me with their fine wits till I were as crest-fallen as a dried pear.”

The Resistance
“President Donald Trump has been in office for less than a week and already Keith Olbermann is calling for his resignation.
In the latest clip for GQ’s “The Resistance” series, Olbermann stuck with his new approach and issued a calm plea to Trump supporters.
“This man is not of sound mind,” Olbermann said.
After detailing all the ways in which the president has lied to Americans in just the span of a few short days, Olbermann said the problem really comes down to one crushing issue.”
