Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys

Take It Where You Find It
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Most adults laugh at this. Curse. Or just shake their heads slowly.
But what about children? Are they forgetting that young, developing minds also see this?
Thank God I won’t be here to see what that generation gets up to when they start to take over.
Too bad about America.
Too bad about America? Too bad about the whole of western civilization!
Got to pander. i wonder what the dems will do to pull in the bestiality and necrophilia vote?
We don’t need any stinking Pace picante sauce.
Spick, I mean, speak for yourself, Pace picante replaced Heinz Ketchup on my shelves years ago! 😉
“New York City?!”
Pace picante sauce. Own it.
NY is circling the drain. I’m so glad I left and moved to FL 5 years ago. Never looked back either.
I don’t care that someone is gay or whatever the other letters stand for. I don’t care and that is how it should be. But I refuse to be bullied into caring about their psychosis or worse affirming it. The only correct response to being told to care or acknowledge or affirm and congratulate is to say what you know is true; you are mentally ill, get some help, stop interfering with normal people. And this statement of fact applies to all who pander to these mentally ill people.
This comment from OneGuy pretty much sums it all up for me. I agree. Don’t parade your deviance. I just don’t care, unless you shove it in my face. Then I care.
Before “ They”can change history, “They” have to erase the past History!
Doing it one word, one sentence, one period at a time.
silly children
they are being left behind
Onward!
We have P.O.C.’s
Why not P.I.G.’s ?

I see Hochul favors the Pelosi-KlownCamo makeup approach
subdued, sophisticated, and pathognomonic of cray-cray
I understand that after one uses heroin, it’s difficult to have “X”.
“Everyone deserves to have an identity document that reflects who they are.”
I thought X meant to cancel out. So if you’re X you have no meaning?
This can only serve to make it harder to identify people from their drivers’ licenses in criminal prosecutions. A policeman’s APB for a black X driving a white bronco is, well, short on action-able intelligence, if you ask me.
Perhaps that is the desired outcome.
The war on the documentable citizenry continues…
If Anthony Fauci fell to an assassin’s bullet tomorrow, in his obituary the New York Times would either have to indict America, or Anthony Fauci, for his violent end. It’d be interesting to learn which they choose.
Even a rat in a trap will chew off a limb if it means escape. Schulzberger et al’ll reveal a lot in their subsequent spin.
NY is amazing. Can’t carry a gun legally and now your kevlar vest is a criminal offense. Yo might think that NY wants you dead.
As I look at the gov, I see she was once an attractive woman, ashamed really when did Bozo the Clown makeup, lipstick become popular with ladies.
They force us to accept what they dare not ask us to tolerate!
Simple question: where does “X” go to jail?
