Daylights savings time
My clocks all changed.
Earlier than expected.
They did not even wait till
The correct time of 2 am
Instead, they just did it by themselves
It was incredible that they already knew
What to do on their own.
Meanwhile, Hollywood is arriving.
After the Pandemic closed down
The most expensive party in town
Even those kids showed up
Who had no business to even be in town
Making it their business
To cause problems with others
Who are now on their own
Being hunted down
Deserving it from their interference
Meanwhile, these guys
Are not known to hide in their rooms
Waiting for someone to come get them
This is their day to make money
Even the ones who don't win
Or have a nomination are expected
To be seen and shake hands
Douglas Fairbanks held a private dinner.
In 1929 where 15 statues were handed out
The next year in 1930
The radio took over with this private affair
And by 1953 when it hit television it was a nation wide
Institution of a simple act of showmanship
Anyone know who Douglas Fairbanks
Is? He was considered the King of Hollywood
He was married to Mary Pickford
Whom you may have heard of
But he was better known
For his "tights" roles
Of Robin Hood and Zorro.
Some of the outfits are stunning
Others need to stand in front of a mirror.
And really look at themselves
The forgotten are the ones
Who don't get invited
But have their own lives
If they are wise enough
To move on from the atmosphere
Where the world news
Is important enough to stop.
To pay attention
More missiles have been fired
In both Korea and Russia
What happened to our world
Understanding of each other
There was a misunderstanding
Or do we just need to go back to school?
All these school shootings
And those public attacks
From people not able to be cooped up
And doing nothing all day
What is next on the horizon?
The acceptance of those who tell
You, no? Not mine
Not my fault
Go away and find someone else
Have not had a single child
Cant get pregnant.
Still have tumors.
Which now will have to be removed
By surgery instead of by radiology
These young doctors
Have forgotten it was their grandmothers
Who fought for their careers
From the time they were adolescents
Until their dying days
Menopause was just another thing
To endure not a reason
To be dismissed as a human being
They wont like what they find
When they get to the age
They have not wanted to embrace
All they had to do was acknowledge.
The schooling they claim to have had.
Instead of going around with all their
Credit cards and urban lives
Maybe the world leaders will
Maybe not, perhaps
The world religious leaders
Well, perhaps not them either
Who are going to lead us
Now that we survived a Pandemic
But forgot how to be humans?
Not the actors who once fought for us
But now only think of the next handshake.
Once upon a time
I had friends who stopped by
And offered presents
Usually at my mothers request
Although she had been committed
To a nut farm when I was born
Some never got the message of who
Was not crazy and who was dying of brain cancer
I received multiple Galileo thermomotors.
I was charmed by them
I had a whole collection of them
Kept them all and watched them to see
If they gave the same room temperature
They did not, they had their variances.
It told me something about life
To bad there are those who believe
They need to steal houses
As well as lives because of their world view.
If they stick thier toe out the door
The might find out what is going on
In their small area or they might get it bit off
Never take the weather for granted.
It rains on the righteous.
And the unrighteous...
