When Barack Obama was a 19-year-old student at Occidental College, he published two poems in the Spring 1982 issue of Occidental's literary magazine, Feast. One is the cringe-worthy "Underground" about "apes that eat figs." The other poem, "Pop," is much more interesting, biographical, and disturbing.
"Pop"
Sitting in his seat, a seat broad and broken In, sprinkled with ashes,
Pop switches channels, takes another Shot of Seagrams, neat, and asks
What to do with me, a green young man Who fails to consider the Flim and flam of the world, since Things have been easy for me;
I stare hard at his face, a stare That deflects off his brow; I'm sure he's unaware of his Dark, watery eyes, that Glance in different directions, And his slow, unwelcome twitches, Fail to pass.
I listen, nod, Listen, open, till I cling to his pale, Beige T-shirt, yelling, Yelling in his ears, that hang With heavy lobes, but he's still telling His joke, so I ask why He's so unhappy, to which he replies...
But I don't care anymore, cause He took too damn long, and from Under my seat, I pull out the Mirror I've been saving; I'm laughing, Laughing loud, the blood rushing from his face To mine, as he grows small,
A spot in my brain, something That may be squeezed out, like a Watermelon seed between Two fingers.
Pop takes another shot, neat, Points out the same amber Stain on his shorts that I've got on mine, and Makes me smell his smell, coming From me;
he switches channels, recites an old poem He wrote before his mother died,
Stands, shouts, and asks For a hug, as I shrink, my Arms barely reaching around His thick, oily neck, and his broad back; 'cause I see my face, framed within Pop's black-framed glasses
And know he's laughing too.
The poem reads autobiographical -- about a young Obama's relationship with a much older man whom he calls Pop. In his article for WND on March 7, 2012, Dr. Jack Cashill singles out this passage from the poem:
"Pop takes another shot, neat/ Points out the same amber/ Stain on his shorts that I've got on mine, and/ Makes me smell his smell, coming/ From me;"
Cashill writes that the most innocent explanation for the "amber stain" on the shorts of Pop and young Obama or "his smell, coming/ From me" is that Pop got the teenaged Obama drunk, and they both spilled whiskey (Seagrams) on themselves. But that interpretation does not explain why the spill is specifically on their shorts and not on their shirts or how Pop's smell is also on ("from") Obama.
A marriage and family therapist who blogs under the tag "Neo-Neocon" senses a darker relationship. She writes:
The lines that begin 'points out the same amber stain...Makes me smell his smell, coming/
From me' may be describing outright sexual abuse. But perhaps not; we don't know, and we'll never know. But there is no question that the poem is describing a boundary violation on several levels: this child feels invaded--perhaps even taken over--by this man, and is fighting against that sensation.
[...] The poem describes a boundary violation that is both physical and mental. The physical is obvious: he is forced to hug the man who repels him, and as he does so he feels himself shrinking. But the violation is mental, too; earlier in the poem, Obama has described "Pop" as a person who has actually gotten into his brain, and whom he wishes to eliminate from it:
as he grows small,
 A spot in my brain, something
 That may be squeezed out, like a 
 Watermelon seed between
 Two fingers.
This mental and emotional usurpation of the young Obama is echoed in the last image of the poem, in which the boy sees his own tiny image framed in 'Pop's' eyeglasses.
 The poem describes a struggle against an attempt at identity takeover, a rejection of being reduced to a reflection in the eyes of the stronger, older, more experienced mentor, who has tried to make Obama over in his own image:
I see my face, framed within Pop's black-framed glasses
...
The sight is chilling to Obama, who is trying to break free. One wonders if he ever fully succeeded."
So who was Pop?
There were two older men in teen Obama's life:
1. His maternal grandfather, Stanley Armour Dunham, with whom Obama had lived from age 10 to 18 in Honolulu. When Obama was ten years old, his mom, Stanley Ann Dunham, had sent him back to Hawaii to live with her parents while she remained in Indonesia.
2. Frank Marshall Davis, a black long-time friend of Stanley Armour Dunham, whom Dunham had introduced to young Obama to be the latter's African-American mentor. Davis was a member of the American Communist Party, a writer of poetry and books, including the pornographic novel, Sex Rebel: Black, using the pseudonym "Bob Greene." Cashill states that there is no doubt Davis wrote Sex Rebel because Davis admitted as much in his memoir, Livin' the Blues: "I could not then truthfully deny that this book, which came out in 1968 as a Greenleaf Classic, was mine."
During the presidential campaign season in 2008, I read Sex Rebel, which is out of print, by borrowing the book from the library of the University of California, Berkeley. I therefore can testify from having read the book that Sex Rebel is an account of the unorthodox sexual exploits of a black man "Bob Greene". Those sexual exploits included marrying a white woman (just as Davis himself did, which was uncommon in the 1960s); "swinging" or wife-swapping with other couples; picking up prospective couples in public parks; sexual orgies; voyeurism; exhibitionism; bisexualism (Greene wrote that "under certain circumstances I am bisexual"); and the seduction by "Greene" and his white wife of a 13-year-old girl named Anne.
It is the pedophilia that has prompted increasing speculation on the net that "Anne" was actually Stanley Ann Dunham, Obama's mother; and that Frank Marshall Davis had sired Obama. That's the reason why Obama conceals his birth certificate. This is the subject of a documentary movie that will come out this summer. For more information, go here.
Joel Gilbert, the maker of the documentary "Dreams From My Real Father," has uncovered handwritten letters by Davis to Margaret Burroughs, the well-known African-American artist, in which Davis refers to his book Sex Rebel: Black as his "thoroughly erotic autobiography." Davis had a sexual affair with Burroughs which, Davis explains, was included in the novel autobiography. [Read more, here.]
In the introduction to Sex Rebel, an alleged Ph.D. named Dale Gordon goes further. He describes the pseudonymous author, Bob Greene, as having "strong homosexual tendencies in his personality."
There are those, like Rebecca Mead of The New Yorker, who say "Pop" is a "loving if slightly jaded portrait of Obama's maternal grandfather."
But both Jack Cashill and Neo-Neocon point out that Obama, in his memoir Dreams From My Father, called Stanley Armour Dunham not "Pop" but "Gramps."
There are other reasons pointing to Frank Marshall Davis as "Pop":
1. "Pop" wrote poetry: Dunham was a life-long furniture salesman whose literary efforts, if any, were confined to making up dirty limericks. In contrast, Davis had written several books of poetry -- Black Man's Verse (1935), I Am the American Negro (1937), Through Sepia Eyes (1938), 47th Street (1948), Awakening and Other Poems (1978).
2. A line in Obama's poem "he switches channels, recites an old poem/ He wrote before his mother died" also points to Davis as "Pop". Dunham's mother died when he was 8 years old, whereas Davis' mother died when he was 20 and already established as a poet of promise.
3. In his memoir Dreams From My Father, Obama's description of a seedy and dissipated older man named Frank is strikingly similar to "Pop" in his poem:
"...by the time I met Frank [Obama was around nine years old] he must have been pushing eighty, with a big dewlapped face and an ill-kempt gray Afro that made him look like an old, shaggy-maned lion. He would read us his poetry whenever we stopped by his house, sharing whiskey with gramps out of an emptied jelly jar. As the night wore on, the two of them would solicit my help in composing dirty limericks. Eventually, the conservation would turn to laments about women.
"They'll drive you to drink, boy," Frank would tell me soberly. "And if you let 'em, they'll drive you into your grave."
I was intrigued by the old Frank, with his books and whiskey breath and the hint of hard-earned knowledge behind the hooded eyes. The visits to his house always left me feeling vaguely uncomfortable, though, as if I were witnessing some complicated, unspoken transaction between the two men, a transaction I couldn't fully understand...."
4. Davis fits the "seedy old man" description more than Dunham: Born in 1905, Davis was 56 years older than Obama and would be 66 years old when Obama was ten. Born in 1918, Dunham was 43 years older than Obama and would be a youngish 53 years old when Obama was ten.
Here are some photos I've found of Stanley Armour Dunham and Frank Marshall Davis. Decide for yourself which man better fits the physical description of Pop in Obama's poem: "dark watery eyes"; "ears that hang with heavy lobes"; "thick, oily neck"; "broad back"; "black-framed glasses".
(Stanley Armour Dunham with child Obama (l); Dunham with 19-year-old Obama (r))
(Frank Marshall Davis as a young man (l); as an old man (r))
Whether Pop was Davis or Dunham, this much is certain: His relationship with young Obama, as the latter described it in the poem "Pop," was creepy and disturbingly suggestive of pederasty.

The media helped elect BO, they will never investigate BO's past, but they will investigate endlessly anyone who runs against BO. Davis was the communist who gave BO his political philosophy. BO is gay and paid Larry Sinclair with cocaine for sex. Michelle is a lesbian. Her writings at Princeton are as hidden as anything BO did. They have a marriage of political convenience. Both are gay. Are the two daughters really theirs?
Even with the conversion, the unwanted symbols remain!
A kid raised in a totally dysfunctional family turned out to be a totally dysfunctional person and even more dysfunctional president. Who would have guessed it?
That isn’t writing, it’s typing.
It is believed that Frank Marshall Davis raped Stanley Anne which resulted in young Barry’s birth. I hope this is not true.
Because he definitely raped young Barry. Often. And the idea that FMD would and could actually rape his own son is more than shocking.
But looking at the sexual perversions of Davis; it is entirely possible that he did indeed rape his own boy on more than one occasion.
May we never again elect a President who was rejected by BOTH parents when they were young
The Obama Gay file...
Gays and Lesbians who worked in the Obama White House

If that is not about GAY SEX i dont know what it is...
A bastard by any other name is still a bastard. Homo victim or not, he is what he is.
“Michelle is a lesbian.”
No, Michelle is a gay man name Michael.
Crikes that poem Blam wrote about “pops” was like a NAMBLA ad.
Affirmative action president.
Think of it! This country has experienced 16 years of disfunctional family presidents clinton and obama
Apes that eat fags???
Where was the media on this? Obama has been a disaster. Not fit, and hundreds of thousands of lives could have been saved had the media done their jobs
“Daughters” - neither of the two girls have any distinct features that resembles either Michelle or Obama. And has anyone ever seen a photograph of the girls as infants being held by either Michelle or Barack? I doubt one exists, unless it’s a Photoshop job.
So many people do not even notice how sick the Clintons and Obamas are, or how much damage they have caused in the world. I am ashamed to have relatives who vote for these pervs.
Bkmrk.
People often say that Stanley Ann Dunham was white. Actually, she was part black. A photo taken with young Barry in the airport in Honolulu clearly shows that one of her arms was black.
Frank Marshall Davis was a real character = hard core Communist Party operative, alcoholic, writer (propaganda), book author, poet, and possible mentor of a young Barack Obama. Definitely a friend to Obama’s white grandfather Dunham and drinking buddy.
However, I have talked to FMD’s son (I only know of one, whose internet name started with “Paleo**, based on a Hawaiian name or term), and he didn’t say much about his father’s life as he was serving in the Air Force as a career officer (and didn’t live at home for a long time).
Also, I doubt if FMD met Obama’s mother in Hawaii as she was usually away somewhere in the world. The years involved, including those of Obama’s birth, just don’t add up (SOMEONE CAN TRY TO BUILD A CHRONOLOGICAL MAP OF WHERE OBAMA AND HIS MOTHER WERE DURING THE TIME THAT BARACK WAS IN HAWAII. THAT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO SEE).
There are information gaps on “Stanley Ann” Dunham in terms of where she was at certain points in time, while the locations of FMD were pretty well documents (Kansas?, Chicago, Hawaii).
Also we need to know to what degree, if any, FMD was “a mentor” to a young Obama (ages 10-18 or so). This is a nebulous area though I suspect a young Obama learned “things” from just sitting in FMD’s house while his grandfather drank with Marshall. What those “things” are, are the “$64,000 Question”. I suspect that they would not be positive about America and capitalism.
Perhaps there are FBI or CIA files on FMD that have not been released, and if so, we should try to get them out for the public to see.
No one seems to remember that FMD was sent to Hawaii to write for a CPUSA-dominated newspaper and shrill the Moscow/CPUSA line in foreign affairs, politics, etc. He was sent by two KGB agents/assets, both identified covert members of the CPUSA, Harry Bridges (also of the Communist Party of Australia, and a KGB asset/operative), and Paul Robeson, also a covert member of the CPUSA until they outted him in the late 90’s. Robeson was definitely a Soviet “asset”. Whether he was knowingly operating under direct KGB or GRU control is not documented, but he willingly served Moscow by his own admission, and the KGB doesn’t let a man like him run around like a loose cannon. He was too valuable to them for propaganda purposes so it is logical that a Soviet intelligence “handler” was around him most of the time. Who that person was, is the question.
PS: Robeson’s wife was also an identified member of the CPUSA as was his son, Paul Robeson, Jr. (HCUA Hearings on the Organization of the Communist Party USA, 1961).
Lots of questions but not enough HARD FACTS. That is the sign of a very successful Soviet intell/propaganda operation. Few fingerprints, few footprints.
