Google, your data suppression methods are obvious, easily recorded, abysmally inept and generally pathetic.

The simple fact that you actively engage in suppressing this and other alternative news sites means we have won and TRUTH will prevail in the end.

Snow in the Tropics
by jake and joan Monday, Apr 24 2017, 10:13am
international / poetry / post

I

summer approaches
in the northern hemisphere
yet souls freeze
white hot heads
are responsible for the cold

i am seized by a sudden urge to return
to Capricornia to soak in the sun
one last time

II

i have a sheep dog called ‘pres’
he barks and manoeuvres,
the sheep huddle, uncertain
then go where the dog herds them --
a faithful servant,
i have trained him well

III

i have heard it said,
‘when will they ever learn?’
how many wars must be fought
before we wake up dead?
