Black dogs tall ships sailing legends aboard the Shenandoah
Blacks dogs born and built this ship take people out one day at a time as a big wind jammer!
A lot of names for those ships you see them in Rockland Maine half way up the coast of Maine
But this one is from Matha’s Vineyard off of cape cod I never looked into it too expensive can’t afford it
I try not to cry about it for fear of being called too sensitive
Luxurious lives on those boats this girl named misery once jumped a float she used to
Live on a ship called The Schooner; people used to joke about it “the Schooner the better” they used to call it
One time my friend Gaye invited me to see the bay rich white gay man all on display
Told him I’ve never been on a boat so I got no sea legs he asked “well how did you come here from Africa?”
“I flew, I flew Air America…” He said they even have a schooner in Boston Harbor they call it The Liberty
Back in the days when scorned people fought to be free they used to serve up Sunday brunch
Wealthy people got on board and munch munch munch! The Sun shone bright those lazy days…
Summer days when the air smelled like green while poor people gazed then came the recession
So the ships found a new direction they all sailed to Florida couldn’t get any business too cold this time of year
No tourists except between May and September to see black dogs hung for adventure
Forty years ago souvenir shops were cheaper now that black dogs cost a lot more they’re rarer
Since they’ve all moved on to better weather now this side of the sea bacteria multiplies
With the speed of a giant panther malaria is having a blast. A procession of people in body casts!
Their hearts fire dying from hunger no one wants to lend a hand to the man in the sewer.

Heavy traffic congestion, air pollution, and littering are some of the most serious problems of modern cities. Our city is no exception. So how can we help make the city a more pleasant place for its residents? What measures should we take to eliminate these problems?
First of all, it would be a good idea to encourage people to use public transport, especially when going to work, instead of their own cars. It would also be appropriate for people to walk to their workplaces, which are short distances, while adhering to a healthy lifestyle and adhering to the useful habits that we are promoting. As a result, the car accidents, traffic violations, and tragic incidents that lead to a person’s death that are happening before our eyes will become a rarity. According to experts’ data from the last year, 2188 people died and 8901 were injured in 9226 traffic accidents in Uzbekistan last year (an annual decrease of less than 1%). According to the WHO, the annual reduction in deaths per 100,000 people is quite significant – from 6.9 in 2021 to 5.7 in 2025 (-17%).
Secondly, one of the most serious obstacles of nature that puts the whole world in a problematic situation is air pollution. The level of deterioration of the ambient air (if we start from our own country) is shown differently in each region and city. Over the past 2 years, to solve this problem, it is Shavkat Mirziyoyev who has been implementing drastic and environmentally friendly measures. Under the chairmanship of our President, on March 29, 2024, it was planned to plant 125 million seedlings within the framework of the “Green Space” project. This project has also been confirmed and is currently showing its effectiveness.
Finally, maintaining environmental cleanliness and raising the population’s environmental awareness are interrelated and important factors in transforming the city into a healthy area. Experts say that improperly managed waste leads to soil, water and air pollution, increasing the risk of various diseases. For example, in areas where a waste sorting and recycling system has been established, the ecological situation has improved significantly. In addition, garbage accumulated in open areas causes the proliferation of harmful microorganisms and insects. Therefore, it is necessary to install sufficient garbage cans on the streets, develop a waste recycling system, and take measures against illegal dumping.
In conclusion, there are many ways to make our city a better place to live. Implementing these measures will clearly provide better conditions for everyone.
