“Watched The News Today”

Gallery

I was watching the news today,

And what do I see?

.

Politicians blowing sunshine,

And wars overseas;

Blood, and death,

Even killing of our bees;

Robbers and banksters,

On nations they scheme;

Corporations playing god,

Even tampering with our seeds.

.

Skies are turning silver,

From things we can’t see;

The poisoning of our crops,

On which the people feed;

More government than people,

And they say that we’re free;

The only ones living,

Are the wealthy and elite.

.

Cost of living getting higher,

And insurance we can’t eat;

Wages that stagnate,

Unable to afford needs;

More homeless than ever,

Numbers growing like weeds;

Our lives losing value,

Nowhere left to flee.

.

Yes,.. .

I watched the news today,

but not on t.v.,

I opened my eyes,

And this I could see.

“We’re Play Things For The Wicked”

Gallery

.

We’re play things for the wicked,

In this hell we call earth,

From the moment we’re born,

With their certificates of birth.

.

We’re collateral to a debt,

In a country we call home,

Ruled by the rich,

Where nothing is owned.

.

Human livestock we are,

To the wicked, just peons,

In a world so corrupt,

It’s been this way for eons.

.

From monarchs and dictators,

To corporations and banksters,

Plutocrats and oligarchs,

Their all a bunch of wankers.

.

There’s something to be said,

In pretending to be civilized,

Our freedom and liberty,

Leaving much to be criticized.

.

We’re deceived by their media,

And politicians puking lies,

Nothing’s as it seems,

As we begin to clear our eyes.

.

And now the fog has cleared,

And the darkness falls away,

We’re just play things for the wicked,

It’s always been this way.

“My Precious Dove”

Gallery

.

I have wandered this earth,

Though not, but yet alone.

I have squandered this life,

For a Love, I’ve never known.

.

I have lived so many days,

Known some, and loved.

And yet, for a lifetime,

I have prayed to God above,

To release you from hiding,

Ooh,.. .

My Precious Dove.

“Where Nothing Makes Sense”

Gallery

.

I so wanna know her,

This woman in my dreams,

Dreaming from afar,

Like an illusion it seems.

.

I want to reach out and touch her,

Caress her and more,

Feel the warmth of her skin,

As we fall to the floor.

.

I want to taste her lips,

Smell her scent,

Just fade away,

Where nothing makes sense.

.

In the hush of silence,

Where dreams collide,

This love that’s bound,

In these dreams of mine.

.

Like an illusion it seems,

A dream from afar,

A touch never felt,

Dreams lovers,.. . we are.

“She’s,.. .”

Gallery

 

‘She’s my fourth of July,

My one and only,

My teammate, my pal,

Never I’m lonely.

.

‘She’s funny you know,

The way she laughs,

The way she smiles,

Even her sass.

.

Some say, she’s not pretty,

But to me, she is,

‘She’s beautiful, and loving,

Yet mean as piss.

.

‘She’s my bestest best friend,

My favorite pass time,

My pain in my rear,

And yep!

.

“She’s all mine”

♥

“Broken Dreams”

Gallery

A sliver of light,

From yonder room,

Comes from a window,

I must assume.

.

Specks of dust,

On beams they slide,

Singing in glee,

Of days gone by.

.

In shadows corner,

Are wandering souls,

Wooden tables,

And empty bowls.

.

Once was night,

Consumed by day,

Vanishing dreams,

Just broken clay.

.

Disdain memories,

Like mangled ropes,

Hanging on vines,

Of nowhere’s hopes.

.

Endless sunshine,

Knocks the door,

Reflects the sadness,

And so much more.

the “Parasites”

Gallery

They came with their politics,

Their money, their greed,

Stealing from the poor,

On countries to feed.

.

The world, their game board,

And we, the playing pieces,

Just sacrificial pawns,

For the few, the one.

.

They hide behind bullshit,

Spread by their sycophants,

Flaunting their privilege,

This class of psychopaths.

.

Society their blood vessel,

They latch on and suck,

“The ultimate parasite,”

The people just grunt.

.

Taxes and credit,

Bailouts and more,

Kickbacks and bribes,

Economy through the floor.

.

Never is enough,

An unsatisfied hunger,

Our democracy’s decayed,

The world to their plunder.

.

Hear the war mongers?

They scream for the elite,

“Our parasites are hungry,”

From one and all, shall eat.

“Passed”

Gallery

It was nice out,

Till the wind came,

And sucked it all away.

.

Daylight gone,

No warmth, no sun,

Is this the end of days?

.

Humans,.. .

No longer proud,

Hiding in holes like strays.

.

Darkness abounds

In distant screams,

Stars have all passed away.

.

Humanity lost,

Like rabid dogs,

We’ve all become insane.

.

So hungry now,

No plants to eat,

Animals have all decayed.

.

A planet dead,

So lifeless now,

Has simply faded away.

.

Like nothingness,

Never were here,

Just remnants of our day.

“Remember when.. .”

Gallery

“Remember when.. .”

.

Remember when the skies were blue,

And children went out to play,

Before the sky changed it’s hue,

And the earth began to decay.

.

When flowers bloomed,

In sunlight’s ray,

Before the gloom,

Of skies of gray,

Before the doom,

Of every day,

Remember when skies were blue?

.
