Good Morning Everybody, Big day for us Americans! Robert Mueller testifies starting any time after 8 AM. Eastern Standard Time. Tune in to your favorite network and watch it or record it all. This is important history!! First the Judiciary Committee. Then I believe in the afternoon the Intelligence Committee. He will have the brilliant dedicated co-overseer of the investigation Aaron Zabley beside him in the AM and sworn in by the Intelligence Committee for that committee’s hearing. Remind all your friends and enemies that this is happening TODAY!! starting in about half an hour. Gavel bangs for questioning at 8:30 AM. Mueller’s opening statement before that; and different text opening statement for the Intelligence Committee, as yet unreleased. Total time testifying before both committees could total five (5) hours.
Poems relevant for you now. Keep your ears open this historic July 2019 day!!
Poem For Robert Mueller and The Mueller Report
Your report cannot speak for itself
It needs you to present it
fill out the words
with your voice
your respected body live
on nationwide television
the cameras whirling
your tempered tones
bringing the travesties and stories to life
So people can SEE and HEAR YOU
Counter the lies and mischaracterizations
That keep flowing out of a rogue White House
Where the truth is impaled on a nail
In the basement
With the mops and debris
You wishing to avoid added scrutiny
penetrating questions
posed by partisans
and idealists
Your report unread by 99 percent of Americans
Too busy to examine 448 dense pages
Of text rich in legalese and footnotes
How you appear
Reversing now-prejudiced perceptions
Perpetrated by obstructive criminals
Facilitating further foreign intervention
Into our sovereignty
By their treasonous actions
Crucial to the republic
For which you stand
In the spotlight
Reluctantly
trying to retire
Step aside
Before your time expires
Your mission not completed
This melodrama requiring you
To appear on the stage
To adjust the climax
Lest we end in tragic ignorance
Of facts
That could save our country
Belittled justice resurrected
By your patriotic performance
In the public eye
Of this modern age

Put It In A Book
Put it in a book
Let everybody see it
Though for some
Who don’t read
It’s the best place to keep a secret
Like an unlocked vault
No one wants to open
Occupying the mind
With consistent consecutive thinking
Building up the story
the facts
To strengthen the foundation
Of belief
Or suspending this
All the work it takes
To assemble the pages
Edit them
Make them flow
Wasted on those
Who decline curiosity
Interested in easier experiences
To absorb
With pictures and video
Social media keeping the superficial official
For those with short attention spans
Needing to laugh
Or feel compassion for a tragic victim
With whom they can relate
Anger inflamed
Political tales fake
Enraging susceptible prisoners
Of their insulated conceptions
Walking the dog
Watching their phone
Tripping over the garbage
Of a neighbor
Too busy with his porn
To pick it up
Until the morning

Implement wisdom
Abhor vindictive actions
