Gnomonic Verses: Jehovah's Footprints & Other Poems

“At last! The true History of Humanity according to reliable Jewish and Christian sources, showing how it all went so terribly wrong and left us in the mess we find ourselves in Now – even if we are Moslems!”

I am at the end of my tether!

You are the tether.

appears now much more like a snare.

What started out a lark,

now shows a bite

far worse than its bark.

CENSUS

The world would be

a better place

without you.

How so?

More space.

Compliment inflates.

Blame deflates.

Truth understates.

is what we have inherited,

are fed and bound by, have created,

no more criminals are sent to prison

(except for tax evasion).

It is officially known as our Democracy...
