Emperor adored Apollo
as tutelary deity, remained shy

Hate Speech
Hate Speech
Are my intentions rotten to the core?
In hate speech I resolve to specialize.
All other forms of discourse are a bore.
Are my intentions rotten to the core?
Has Mr. Hyde within me won the war?
Then Jekyll was a sissy, damn your eyes!
Are my intentions rotten to the core?
In hate speech I resolve to specialize.

We Just LOVE Those FREE OFFERS!
We Just LOVE Those FREE OFFERS!
Not only are we axe-murderer MAD enough to give away the terrifying e-book known as THE GHOST OF BIDEN’S BRAIN….
We’re also initiating a SPECIAL FREE OFFER on that nobler and less topical classic, LOVE POEMS OF A HATEMONGER!
That’s not a joke, folks – as Biden’s teleprompter might instruct him to say while reading propaganda from his basement.
LOVE POEMS OF A HATEMONGER – the collection of virtuoso poems that lovers love to hate but readers merely love – is now FREE at Amazon!
Nor does LOVE POEMS OF A HATEMONGER lack a Halloween connection. No, indeed! It’s got death goddesses and murderous maenads! It’s got witches who butcher their own flesh and blood! It’s got vampires that make the ones in Twilight look like namby-pamby, milk-sipping pajama boys! It’s even got Edgar Allan Poe and the dead ladies who haunted his life and art!
It’s also got the strangest riff on Casablanca that you will ever read. Who ever thought you could make a sonnet sequence out of one scene in that inimitable movie marvel?
You don’t need a Kindle to read LOVE POEMS OF A HATEMONGER. You can download the FREE Kindle app onto nearly any smart phone, computer, or mobile device!
If you’re not afraid to look at love – and hate – from a different point of view, then snap up your FREE copy of LOVE POEMS OF A HATEMONGER today!

There is a reason that this fat prick hates
Our canine friends with such unholy zeal;
That he insists it’s one tremendous deal
When dogs just bark at him; that he inflates
With spurious bravado when his mate’s
Whine fills the air; that he cannot conceal
His lust for puppy wounds that will not heal;
That, when a pet’s destroyed, he celebrates.
There is a reason that his heart’s so small;
A reason that his malice endlessly
Expands, much like his butt. No need to stall
As we pursue this galling inquiry.
His envy – which is vast – explains it all.
Even a bitch is more a man than he.

Hateful rhetoric tweeted all day
By the Trumpster occasions dismay.
Causes violence, too.
Just accept these truths, you!
Our own rhetoric? Hey, that’s okay!

Am I hateful? They say I am. Good!
In hostility’s fine neighborhood,
I have built a fine house.
Though I may be a louse,
I hate only those punks that I should.
