Debriefed at the pearly gates



You've lived by the book anticipating Eternal life
Confessed your sins and accepted Jesus Christ
Walked a straight Path
But lied and cheated people
"It's My job" doesn't count
You're going straight to hell
do not pass go
do not collect two hundred dollars
you got paid by the hour
you sold your soul 
to the devil



Bob Jenkens

This is for our judges'' lawyers'' clerks and even court stenographer's.
our entire Judicial system is going to hell.
Jesus Christ was for the poor people 
I'll swear on a bible .

My Inspiration for this poem

Sunday, April 17, 2022

SHHHHHH!

 I'm always saying something

Is anyone listening?

I don't say it out loud

I say it in a poem

Isn't that stupid? 

Stupid of me

that I didn't start saying it sooner

this will be the beginning

Of the end of me.


Don't shut up and quit listening

someone needs to say something


boo are you scared yet?

"Funny" by my high school sweetheart Sue Ivey (Burton)


  "Funny"

 Funny how it seems

I'm left alone with all my dreams

and though my dreams are very few

             "Funny"

how their all of you!



Sue Ivey


It's a small world. I rode shotgun in a 1969 Pontiac Lemans with my uncle Norman who was only eleven months older than me. David Hargrove who I'd known since kindergarten sat in the back on our trip to the mall. The "Westwood mall".  as we walk about the mall, I notice a cute little blonde and nudge David "there's a cute girl". "That's my cousin" he says. really? it's a small world. As large as it may seem it was ironic, I met Sue Ivey almost by chance on a trip to the mall. I was only 15 and I couldn't imagine I'd know Sue for the rest of her life. Some 35 years. We were kids together and grew up together. I took her to my senior prom. Whenever I hear a def Leppard song, I immediately think of you Sue. They were the debut band the summer we met. God, I miss you. I remember when you wrote this poem for an assignment at school. You told me you wrote it for me. How stupid was I to think this is just some words? Now all grown up everything that happens to me is a poem. I'll always Love you Sue You're the only one who's ever written a poem for me,

the Russians don't even want to see themselves

 throwing inhumanity 

at the holocaust

burying the truth

at any cost

live and die Putin

take on a Uber job you Russian slob

sinking in the black sea

the world can see this isn't 1946

I wish some aliens would show up

and sink their Russian ships

put a missile right in Putin's lips

sorry about your luck

Russian people

does this invasion look right from any angle?

Aliens would set you right

it's time for the world to know

it's not 1946 it's not d day

send Putin to his grave

Hidden from reality

Jesus would be rolling in his grave

 I wish I would have been there when Jesus was betrayed (by Judas)

Simon Peter's stroke would have meant "go" and the story would have changed

The Holy Bible written a different way

I know he ascended into Heaven and arose on the third day

for if he didn't, Jesus would be rolling in his grave

Why couldn't the disciples fight? 

It's what they've taken from us today

In his name "in God we trust"

Justice or just us?

When Simon Peter dropped his sword

I would have gone to war for Jesus

And we would have been eating kosher chicken

for the last supper
