Ontopic Dorys thread of Meandering Nonsense

Day 4

Under water

Splish splash
Having a bath,
Trying to take care of my mind
While my body and heart aches.
Mind pacing, pacing to a halt.
This is only just the beginning,
A marathon not a sprint.
Endurance test
Waiting for some good news
So I can rest.
Know it's not coming,
Lather up my flesh-
With sudds
Try and wash away the mess.
Keep on doggy paddle,
Avoid the ripcurl,
Don't get lost down the drain
Drowning in the pain.
Drowning.
My halting brain.
Try not to go insane.
 
Day 5

Living on an island

Status quo, status quo
Country has been stood still
Ten years, no change,
Propaganda abounded to erase
They got rid of community
The real enemy here is unity
Tabloids given immunity

Status quo, status quo
Demonise those who need a benefit
Give them PIP, give them universal credit
But above all make them feel like shit
Zero hour contracts
The new norm on the go
Turn your nose up at those below

Status quo, status quo
Make no progress
Uncontested regress
No need to feel proud, to impress
Where are you now corporate giants Amazon, Mac,
Avoiding taxes, not making a single mask
True colours show, will they ever be brought to task?

Status quo, status quo
Whatever you like, whatever you need
Until it comes to a time where the country bleeds
Money where your mouth is, you're the fucking disease
The birds now coming back to nest
Hibernations over, now we have to protest
Fighting for our lives, we need civil unrest
 
Rearrange, organize, clean
Feels good putting together a beautiful scene.
One space done, time to rest,
Not to shabby an improvement on the nest
Eh, so it isn't that impressive. Big deal,
Sweet oranges are bitter at the peel.
Not getting younger, though time is an illusion;
Do I get older or just change, still, the grand intrusion.
Change can be small, change can be great,
Either way, no doubt, change is my fate.
Am I the Same me I was yesterday?
Yes of course, but also no, much like the chord, I fray.
 
yo, yaw. lost power and internet yesterday. power down duration, unknown. internet down as long as 24 hours plus.
just logging on

not sure if anyone can outpace Dory, but i was inspired to hack out one more for this honorable thread. it’s called,

“do i look like i sell weed, lady?”

woman came through my yard again, lament prefaced dismay
i asked how she was feeling, this is what she had to say

the neighborhood was glowing
like starlight years away
now locked in place its losing hope of being free to play

please can you give me something to take this pain from me
my children drove me crazy, my husband paid the fee

i offered her an answer thats not for everyone
to take a trip, quick get away. go some place and just run

you know,... go jogging, silly! now get your pretty ass back in that house. give those babies a hug. give their dad a bj,... you’ll be fine, girl

Day 6

Breakfast

Ths bread is like me
Hard on the edges
Soft inside
Thats not an innuendo
Shut up you dirty mind

Cheap and unbranded
Unapologetic if im heavy handed
Quite surprised
My loca nisa
Can provide me with metharophic bread

Feeding my soul
As well as my tummy
Oh isnt the world funny
Afraid im acting the fool
Past anger, now feeling like a dummy

Eating my beans
Wonder how much weight Im going to put on
Bursting at the seams
Staying indoors
Life is on pause

Walking the dog up the street.
Pitter patter of four little feet.
Stop to sniff stop to smell, watch the squirrels run like hell.
Smell that flower smell that tree, smell that fence post now stop to pee.
Around the corner dragged by Rover, top of the block then start all over.
Don't stop too soon for if he could talk, that doggy would say " hey asshole this is my fucking walk".
 
im back at work today, got a mandatory travel letter this morning to show the cops should it be needed

Is there any sort of official document for this yet?
Your situation is a bit different but for a lot of us it's just a letter on company letterhead, or for the self-employed just our own contact info or business card, stating this is who we are, this is what we do, and under these guidelines falls under essential services.


People here are being pretty well behaved but there's really nothing stopping anyone from just printing one out at home calling themselves Steve's delivery service or plumbing repair or mobile mechanic or whatever meets the criteria.

Hogan means it this time!

Still comes off as a strong suggestion not an order given everything that is still open.

But he’s a republican so he won’t close everything that isn’t really essential.

it comes with criminal charges if you violate. Misdemeanor 2 up to felony 1.

How can they enforce that?
I could see hitting some actual brick-n-mortar business that wasn't supposed to be open but individual people just driving around I don't see how. Million different things they could be out doing that are allowed.
