Italian Song

Find, that beauty is Italy
The sea's horizon we don't see
When it's bathing in the Summer Sun
We see even a monk and a nun
With tablet & smart phone near the sea

All shops & restaurants sell glutenfree
Nowhere more wheat products do we see
Local mozarella needs no bun
Find oregano at your mountain run

Palaces from fairy tales set free;
Lushy fountains; many a citrus tree
Imagination & water will run
In lofty places under the Sun
It will make you collect some bounty
Find here your new, inspired energy

Dogs

Maybe I'm no dog person
I'm a specific dog person
With some, I have immediate connection
Their strong memory facilitates a relation
In a network, also dogs have ties with each person

Capitalist Song

Capitalism

Liberalism

Neoliberalism

Socialism

Fascism

Conservatism

Materialism

Narcissism

Isn't it all just about

The erosion, inflation

Of language, throughout?

Do we remember their definition?

The real definition now of these words

Is simply: Bad person, bad ideology

They function like blunt swords

They lost their threat in etymology

Alas, we forgot that capitalism

Also has a positive, healthy meaning

If we abolish collectivist corporatism

And return property to those concerning

We can improve the political debate

Once we hold matching keys to its gate

Boat Song

Boats are as old as humanity
Perhaps our oldest facility
One of the few places to combine
Work and pleasure in a way that's benign
They're places that dampen banality

Sameness is elsewhere dull profanity
Here, it may be spirituality
Never the same is the water line
Boats will often modestly align

Captains want individuality
Or challenging materiality
People want to gather or land what's fine
And have made easy or forward design
To follow heavenly facility
Across water's practicality

Debt Song

We've come to harbor wrong ideas
About what debt and finance are
Real value isn't the same as
Printed sheets without counter ware

The USA understands this
They ignore created money
They know that a present it is
Stupid Europe is not so free

Citizens and businesses
Can lend real value to others
Return theirs, without finesses
Real borrowing rarely smothers

Don't repay created money
Be real now & set yourself free
