Earthly life is to suffer
impervious to spin
so we have to act tougher
not merely bear & grin
As keeping on wailing
of ‘leaders’ brutal
clearly unavailing
a routine futile
Unless we deal with this raw deal
our life shall remain an ordeal
The Pandemic, the final push over into Cataclysm
“The pandemic has shown us that most people don’t really have the sustained capacity for this type of cataclysm” – Matt Sundin
Each time on the gas we let up
we thought ‘got away, splendid!’
but just yet another set-up
for getting re-rear-ended
Pandemic by complaints unmoved
as harbors zero feelings
thus cannot ever feel reproved
for any of its dealings
It is clearly ain’t open to polemic
when tailgating us the wily pandemic

Versmakares vedersakare
Så påstår djupa poeter, som vanligtvis inte kan nedlåta sej att rimma, om oss ytliga versmakare:
“Bara versmakare”,
påstår djupa poeter
bland vedersakare
“de rimmar mest dumheter!”
Blott språkets posörer
lättjefulla flanörer
ytliga kåsörer
tondöva sufflörer!
Kritiker sej ondgör
klart ej i favör:
En utpräglad fräsör
sägs sakna gehör
Kan ju gott förstå hur det stör
de av högtravande valör
No thanks, self-restraint sounds way too quaint!
Whether Life a morality farce
if you’ve been overindulging
you’ll still be flat on your sorry arse
next day burping, midriff bulging
But then desire for self-restraint
these days dishearteningly faint
I kallsvett genomvåt ylar vår klagolåt
Om som ung vi bar oss illa åt
får vi finna åldrandet svårt
månget minne ligger i försåt
erinrans påflugna despot
Maktlösa grämer vi oss över
(påstötningar tar aldrig slut)
hur kraftlös var undanmanöver
Förbarmar sej ej, vet ej hut!
Fast sannolikt välförtjänt
i kallsvett, genomvåt
i förkrosselse erkänt
ylar vår klagolåt
Kvider i bara kalsonger
på frusen mark i djup ånger
Successful scammers wield vile but velvet-draped hammers
A scam victim might feel relieved
if felt themself neglected
While sensing they’re being deceived
‘happy’ to be selected?
Greedily they believe
gold of 25 carat!
Easily they perceive
a carnivorous carrot!
Smiles of scammers contrived
cloying, beguiling
Once they got us connived
they turn unsmiling
When unthinkingly we parrot
we may praise that of no merit
Restricted flow hemic for the ischemic
The poor ischemic
with his clogging-up brain
so curdling hemic
short term memory’s bane
Pointless any polemic
beyond doubt endemic
needs no academic
to suggest systemic
Grievously no hyperbole
comes with the family tree
makes him into an absentee
fades to insularity
Shuffling around in confusion
inside the land of delusion
