Education
I was taught from my first tooth
That education searched for truth
But these days universities
It seems, are geared for companies
Who want their candidates anointed
In Marketing, and business-pointed
Perhaps our land of milk and honey
Requires that, in truth, be money

The perfect program
If I was a programmer
Gifted with grace
I’d write a new program
That took up no space
This program would right
All the wrongs that we know
And bring snow to places
That used to have snow
It’d feed the world’s hungry
Make government good
Then save a rare species
To prove that it could
If I was that programmer
God how I’d smile
But I’m not, so I won’t
And God’s resting a while

From Sietse
Parties
Isn’t it funny how the names
Of parties over time change meaning
Indicating subtle change
Of choices made, and of the leaning
Way back when, Republican
Meant progress, new ideas and such
An openness of mind to things
But now, it doesn’t matter much
Back in England, old Disraeli
Desired a party of the masses
One whose forthright slogans could
Transcend the dogma of the classes
Alas successors misconstrued
The meaning of his message plain
And nowadays Conservative
Means “You keep yours, and I’ll keep meyhn.”

Omnibus?
If God is good, and God is great
Omnipotent to us
Then how come he can’t regulate
A simple London bus
In pouring rain and winter’s grime
You wait there like a dunce
Until the pre-appointed time
When five come all at once
From Schoko Casana Rosso, Germany
