The killing fields
right here at home
are somehow different
from those that we've known
no longer war
on foreign fields
but there's a body count
this new war yields
students and teachers
professors and preachers
murders committed
by horrible creatures
are there no answers
to the question why
these monsters keep killing
causing mothers to cry
life is not ours to take
nor a game that we play
when will this madness end
will there come such a day
a day of beautiful peace
love shared man to man
the tools of killing laid down
would be a wonderful plan
but I know it's a dream
one that can never come true
and that thought and the stress
leaves me ever so blue

we are monsters
from the boutique to the
embroidered throw pillows the
pen dashed around the neck
stage 5 bone cut
sawing ossification to the
hollow core

we are monsters
hooting in tunnels lined
with bats coming out to feast
creation
to scrape the streets
shimmy the walls
bust the coffin and
succckk

we are monsters
who can't enter under the
doorframe
fearful of being burned by
the sun silver stake
rat poison holy water sickle
and windmill ash

we are monsters
sewed stapled dead meat
skin hair plugs ceramic
teeth tested and tasted by
rats

we are monsters
jumping high over white
fences frenzied explosion
running through corn
angrily bled in a field shot and
hunted like embarrassing
waterfowl in the jaws of
mammalia

we are monsters
of flaming brilliance flashing
in your inbox
read us and gnaw
braised
roasted
grilled limbs
watch
as we watch you
be scared and
stab
I promise we don't die.

Daily life was such a bore,
Couldn’t get any more worst.
The events of life, all a blur,
Will this get any better?

I prayed to God to find an answer,
Hopping one day I’ll break this chain
Sweet chance, A friend walks in
That led my steps abroad.

Lord, how rich the times are now,
I praise and thank you for this.
Now must I thank ye friend,
For I see joy in thine presence.

The friendship you have given me,
The joy you brought to my soul,
Has filled me with strength
And made my world clear again.

Now life has changed.
The events of life all clear again
And much better the times are now
And I thank you very much.

In you I put my trust
And I will always have faith.
By your side I will always stand,
And be the ride you always want.

The moment we met,
We were caught in a friendship net.
And indeed a perfect set.
A gift from above I get.

Our friendship will never end,
I promise to you my friend
The events of life all clear again
I thank you very much once again.
This poem is dedicated to my friends who supported me and helped me choose my path right,who came in to my life and changed everything, who saved my life from a huge mess.....

Sum It
You can be sure of one thing
I want to be in love with you.

But my love for you
shall not be ordinary
My love for you
might neither be extraordinary
somewhere in between
somewhere beyond both

My love for you is like my love for starry night.
I can't have it every night
But its all I want when I am looking at it.

Like rain that turns to snow for the love of mountains
Like snow that melts on the warmth of sun
I want to be in love with every inch of your existence
Even if it means losing my own

I want to love you the way I am in love with loneliness
Alone but fulfilling

I want to love you like the way I am in love with destiny
It keeps me moving forward forever

Have no doubt about my love for you
You are the sun I love ,
that shines the light out of my soul

Like moon can't have sun and  still dances on it light.
I want to be that moon with all my dark sides hidden by your light.

I want to be over mountains,
just to see you,
with no veil in between,
to have no clouds between us.

I will write your name over snow
knowing-- it will melt down as river
down the plains of valley
where flowers of your name will blossom

I want to love you the way bees are in love with flowers
Without one, both wouldn't exist.

I will close my eyes laying down on your thoughts.
And my love for you ,
I will let it blossom...

I want to be in love with you
like silence loves music
I want to vanish in you just like that.

voyager
I want to embark on a quest
Thats is long to conquest
Just like a voyager on a mission
To fulfil his vision


I just want to go
Where no other chap has gone
Go miles and miles
And seek devine intervetion
From oldies for protection
To fight the cancer of CORRUPTION

I want to embark on a journey
To end lovers of money
Establish new regime

And the war begins
The common light skinned citizens versus the "big fish"
Living in extreme poverty
Hungry and thirsty

Uncompleted projects
Lie everywhere in the country
With promises to be kept
Yet the saying broken
Its a matter of tyranny of numbers

To put an end to this era
Unending decades of lies
Yet you abide to the ties?
Feels like drowned in mollasses
