Love and anger evoke in me
strength and hatred that you see
Makes me fight and carry on
even more when hope is gone
When I am cold and feeling done
love warms my body like the sun
helps me stand when I feel weak
fuels in me the strength I seek
Anger makes me forget the pain
keeps me walking through the rain
hate it now because I can see
What this world an life should be
Love and anger are my fuel
and yes together they do duel
one cant exist without the other
so stand with me fellow brother
Use your anger and your pain
help this world get back to sane
spread love and hate evenly
an make this life what it should be

I will not be seen by your eye
in deep grass and striped am I
hiding not but hidden still
until I know it's time to ****
Low to ground I hold my stance
hidden from your every glance
yet I know you know I'm near
as I can smell your building fear
I choose my timing to announce
now any second I can pounce
It's far too late to keep on walking
now that stripey death is stalking

Tell me now then Mr minister
why is politics all so sinister
In past controlled us all with fear
now they fear the truth is near
Divide and conquer is the goal
hate what they cannot control
Internet means communication
no longer divided globalisation
We are numbers this they know
struggling to keep us all below
on our shoulders they've stood
not helping others as they could
We all know about their crime
and now I think that it is time
for a simple an affective solution
has anyone heard of revolution?

I think it's time for a conversation
about human beings an our imagination
Great inventors like in past days are rare
and it seems that society just doesn't care
So just what happened to free innovation
it's now controlled like a railway station
Some great ideas aren't being inspected
well inventors of hoovers are getting respected
If they can't control it they make it stall
as mankind's inventions could free us all
Letting them do it will be all our regret
Man made are we and we shouldn't forget!

Judge a woman by her lovers
just another one after others
Wouldn't do that to a man
welcome to bed who he can
Judge a woman by her clothes
her material and fabric throws
Criticised for what she wears
doesnt matter still gets stares
Judge a woman by her hair
try it different if she dare
It shows now, nerve reveals
surely you know how she feels
I Judge a woman by if she cares
deals with life and how she fares
In what she has a sense of pride
and the feelings she has inside
Judge a woman how dare you
exam her and what she do
It does more harm can't you see
to look at her so judgementally

A fellow poet sadly has just departed
a good man was so kindly hearted
a talented wordsmith and lyrical creator
John by name and indeed by nature
Family he was but also good friend
many a meal sat, time we'd spend
Didn't see you recently but hope you know
I hate the fact it's your time to go
and know when we gather as family
it won't feel right without you sat next to me

Poetry to me had become boring
pretentious writer craved adoring
"Likes for this one" it overtook
a simple love of a poetry book
Poems to me had lost there flair
no love up here or under there
with every single word I'd gloat
in the dribble that I wrote
Yet now a new style I've found
playfully written wrote for sound
Simple to read and flows to say
so fun to write with words I play
And helps keep the ego at bay
loss of identity some would say
but to not be "known" I feel I can
relate to all as just One man

Let's all work together
and build a world where
no one is starving
no one is homeless
Everyone is like a friend
Everyone is like a brother
We will feel the pain together
if someone gets hurt
when someone feels helpless.
Let's all love each other
And build a world where
no one will hate
nothing is loveless
Everyone likes their beloved
Everyone likes their mother
We'll be successful forever
if someone gets pleasure
when someone feels happiness.
Yeah, let's all leave behind
a better world
to our nation
We should leave behind
a better future
for our children
That can only be achieved
by ending the war
and joining together
to work, together!
Let's be all together!!

Greedy rich still take from the poor
seem to think they still need more
If I had one wish it would be
to try to help and make us free
I'd wish all on earth have one wish
from man to dog and from cat to fish
This one wish would come with a rule
to keep it fair and make no one a fool
You could only wish for another
maybe dad, mother, sister or brother
Couldn't share or make no deals
just to see how good generosity feels
When best of plans have been laid
all the wishes should be made
to change these people make them see
you don't need stuff to be happy!

How dare we sit skipping on porcelain throwns
passed pics of children starving on thousand pound phones.
Remember singing "feed the world" and watching band aid?
it's no natural disaster this in balance is man made.
Life should be the most valued of things
and not only helped when the Irish man sings.
We need to take action and not let it get filed
just think how you'd feel if it was your child?
It's time for a change and the sooner the better
people are people to me they're no debtor.
We must change this world even if governments must fall
cause if any debt is owed then we owe it to all!.
