Now leaps, sleep gotten shallow
pinched in vised senescence
While children sweetly callow
express their quintessence:
with the bounciest leap
as well the deepest sleep

vised = as if a vise

Earthly life is to suffer
impervious to spin
so we have to act tougher
not merely bear & grin
As keeping on wailing
of ‘leaders’ brutal
clearly unavailing
a routine futile
Unless we deal with this raw deal
our life shall remain an ordeal

“The pandemic has shown us that most people don’t really have the sustained capacity for this type of cataclysm” – Matt Sundin
Each time on the gas we let up
we thought ‘got away, splendid!’
but just yet another set-up
for getting re-rear-ended
Pandemic by complaints unmoved
as harbors zero feelings
thus cannot ever feel reproved
for any of its dealings
It is clearly ain’t open to polemic
when tailgating us the wily pandemic

%) Versmakares vedersakare
Så påstår djupa poeter, som vanligtvis inte kan nedlåta sej att rimma, om oss ytliga versmakare:
“Bara versmakare”,
påstår djupa poeter
bland vedersakare
“de rimmar mest dumheter!”
Blott språkets posörer
lättjefulla flanörer
ytliga kåsörer
tondöva sufflörer!
Kritiker sej ondgör
klart ej i favör:
En utpräglad fräsör
sägs sakna gehör
Kan ju gott förstå hur det stör
de av högtravande valör
+)
-fräsör = dussinpoet, rimsmidare
-vedersakare = meningsmotståndare, rival

Whether Life a morality farce
if you’ve been overindulging
you’ll still be flat on your sorry arse
next day burping, midriff bulging
But then desire for self-restraint
these days dishearteningly faint

Om som ung vi bar oss illa åt
får vi finna åldrandet svårt
månget minne ligger i försåt
erinrans påflugna despot
Maktlösa grämer vi oss över
(påstötningar tar aldrig slut)
hur kraftlös var undanmanöver
Förbarmar sej ej, vet ej hut!
Fast sannolikt välförtjänt
i kallsvett, genomvåt
i förkrosselse erkänt
ylar vår klagolåt
Kvider i bara kalsonger
på frusen mark i djup ånger

Us scam victims shall feel aggrieved
over caution neglected
although we sense being deceived
inkling by greed deflected
In greed we might believe
gold of 28 carat
perhaps even perceive
a carnivorous carrot!
So we let ourselves be deceived
as ego’s essence to kvell
perhaps as well even relieved
then with a story to tell!
Smiles of scammers contrived
cloying, beguiling
Once they got us connived
they turn unsmiling
When acting without thinking we may parrot
and thus end up praising that of no merit
+)
kvell = to be extraordinarily pleased; especially, to be bursting with pride, as over one’s family.

The poor ischemic
with his clogging-up brain
curdling anemic
short term memory’s bane
Pointless any polemic
beyond doubt endemic
requires no academic
to suggest systemic
Grievously no hyperbole
comes with the family tree
makes him into an absentee
fades to insularity
Shuffling around in confusion
inside a land of delusion
+)
-ischemia = (here: in brain) deficiency of blood supply produced by vasoconstriction

“Amazon? Ain’t it cloud nine!”
No, didn’t mean THAT brazen bungle
where billions are spent online
but the Brazilian jungle:
its rain forest desecrated
by deforestation incessant
the planet’s lungs perforated
while humanity stays quiescent!?
Yet another fatality
through consumer rascality
+)
quiescent = inactive or motionless

I jakt på förtrollning
febrilt vi ylar
efter underhållning
plus långt fler prylar
Enär ovärderlig tiden
‘tidsfördriv’ ett lurt begrepp
en förställning tungt förvriden
i dagligt liv ett missgrepp
Ett beklagansvärt folknöje
grundat i städigt missnöje?
