VICTORY DEFINDED

The battle takes its toll,
rejected as a place to poll.

Warriors remain distraught,
wrong campaign fought.

Victory is defined on how you choose
All is not lost, unless you lose.

Ford fails as polling place

A VIEW TO KILL

When our civil rights are abused,
the leter of the law gets confused.

For me judical overreach is always right
but when it comes to others it's a fright.

Our liberties we must protect
selective application we must object.

The rule of law we can not desert
just because the camera goes upskirt.

An act to which most object
but the rule of law we must protect.

The lesson learned from this exchange,
those laws we must rearrange.

Court ruling spurs calls to pass ‘upskirting’ bill

THROWAWAY PAY

Recyling rates to raise.
This summer starts the first phase.

A new five year plan for trash
in the end will save the city cash

or at least some may hope.
I wonder how the rats will cope

With all this new fangled technology,
if so the Mayor may owe us an apolgy.

Recycling rate to ‘increase significantly’

INTO THE WOODS

Before you take another look,
remember true support comes with an open check book,

In theory we all want an accessible trail
but to finance we often fail.

Talk is cheap as they say,
we'll know for real when it's time to pay

When even basic rights come at a price
spmeone, somewhere has to sacrifice.

Move for accessible pathways at Lynn Woods draws support

ADDICTION FRICTION

Sometime demons take the shape of a pill
While others need a needle to rob your will.

A demon can be one you smoke
Either way reality you choke.

In the end one loses control
And the devil takes another soul,

Police: Lynn man crashes car with kids inside after drug overdose

THE ABC'S OF DCF

Sorry but you all are being played for fools.

Same people same rules.

The system will stay broke

As long as calls for change you choke.

DCF needs total rehab.

Standing up makes it easier

When in your back they stab.

Local parents put support behind DCF head

REPEAT OFFENDER

I wrote about this prolem before
but obviosly this crisis calls for more.

Spending cuts designed to hurt the poor
will case crimes of desparation to soar.
