Sandra Feldman Today Poems

Today,
The upside-down
Way,
Try to be nice
...

Muddy waters.
Dirty sand
Political pollution
Upper hand,
...

Mirrors do not lie
No matter how hard
You may try,
You can't change reality,
...

Today,
The real World
Is hard to swallow,
In such mud,
...

Strict poetic forms
Abandoned,
Today, an open path
To poetic Liberty,
...

Let me fly into the wind,
Like a pleasure that has sinned,
From a Life that once was whole,
But is no more, sweetness flow,
...

All greatness and compassion,
Gone!
Truth and Dignity,
Stepped upon.
...

Tears come easy
When in love,
And you can't have
What you can't have,
...

Today,
No sad songs for me,
I have deeply looked,
Into the face,
...

They're not leaders,
They're bleeders,
Working for all They can get,
Their lives with our sweat to perfect
...

Violence and Sex,
Ugliness, are
Wanted guests
No,
...

The Mass Illusion
IS!
That we are basically
Good
...

Ideals have been
So beaten,
Down!
Kindness, love
...

Corruption, Destruction
Wham!
A kick in the gut
Crime, Dishonesty and Spam
...

Democats, Debacle,
Yes, quite a disaster,
Laundry Machines,
Needed Urgently!
...

There are no
Answers,
Only questions
That get folded
...

In a old proverb
The Spaniards say,
That of poet, madman and musician
We all have a bit in our d n a.
...

They're out for the kill!
The raw savagery of politics
Gives no thrill
To some observing citizenry,
...

Don't tell me, it was always like this,
Such contradictions as today did not exist,
What is bad, now is good,
All acceptance of Taboos,
...

We seem to be living Upside Down,
Today,
What is crooked, is now round,
Today,
...

Things change so quickly,
You can't keep up,
One day you're booming,
The next you're out.
...
