United Nations

Let us all now make this promise
To be signed by every land
If you hurt the children of this world
As United Nations we will stand

You may never use our children
As fighters in your wars
For our children are not soldiers
They are gifts to be adored

Don't think that you can take them
Or use them as your shields
That the killing of our children
Will help to change the way we feel

No one shall ever force a child
To preform like an adult
For that gift is only theirs to give
When true love is in their hearts

Know the world now stands together
For this fight is worth the cause
And our countries have no boarders
When children are involved

Let us all now make this promise
To be signed by every land
If you hurt the children of this world
As United Nations we will stand


Signed by The People of
The United States Of America

The way you rapped me around your little finger
Twisted and twisted till I could untie myself no more.
Rocking and rolling my poor heart, letting it linger
Leaving it left so sore.
Yet this passion clutched me, hung from my every limb.
I would not leave you. As I knew you would not me.
The country moves of yours swaying, humming hymns
Every move so elegant, so classical, so free.
I could not grasp the way you did it,
Moved me from my deep burrowed Blues.
My hero in every form, like a candle lit
In a darkened, dusky room.
You will be my song, my tune, my being.
For you and I will breathe as one breathing.
First Sonnet
i would rather die on my feet
than live on my knee's

*he died for freedom of expression

I'm the Sun in the Sky
I'm the Moon in the Night
I'm the Dark and the Light
I'm the One and the None
I'm the Air that you Breathe
I'm the Sounds that you Hear
I'm the Dreams and your Screams
I'm the High in your ****
I'm the Smoke in the Speed
I'm the Water you Drink
I'm the Killer at the Sink
I'm the Eyes that never Blink
I'm the Time in the Clock
I'm the Crime at the Block
I'm the Angel of the Dead
stop planting flowers
in the yards of people who
aren't willing to
water them.
