Poetic stylings of Sully

The Internet

It's here, it's there, it's everywhere,

It’s ads for beer, and underwear,

For words that slime, and hasty rhyme;

A manic place, this cyberspace,

Where chaos rules, and abusive fools,

Share fleeting pages, with gentle sages.

The Internet, is lusty sweat,

Heated chat, and granny’s cat.

It's the latest news, and words that bruise,

It's thoughts that heal, and sex appeal,

Sights of yonder, and things to ponder.

It's manic raves, and keyboard slaves,

It's a fleeting wonder, and floods down under.

What it ain't, is for the faint,

Unless they need, a healthcare feed,

Or for those who rule, and hate a tool,

That puts free speech, in people's reach,

And enables groups, away from troops.

Monday's Debate: A Microcosm of 2016 September 27, 2016
What we saw Monday night in the first presidential debate felt like a 90-minute microcosm of the 2016 campaign. Hillary Clinton was comfortable talking substance. She kept her cool. She was steady if unspectacular, giving safe and succinct answers. Above all, she was clearly well prepared. Donald Trump was out of his depth. He was baited into damaging sound […]

The Inconclusive Event September 27, 2016
Hillary Clinton’s biggest debate victory was in showing she does have stamina and is completely healthy (no sniffling or even a drink of water). She also seemed well prepared, even though her branding innovations fell flat. But she was too smug, didn’t have control over her smile, and failed in her effort to dismiss Trump as crazy. She was needlessly disresp […]
