Poems
Jan 2017
Book of Revolution
Further down the wishing well
The pale horses descend
The wheel of time is turning
As we're thirsting for the end
Faith's accursed plagues have reaped
The Eden fruits with drought
Apocalyptic famine's war
Yet spill no drop of doubt
The only change is rising seas
That flood the streets in vice
Treading in the melting ***
As cook's increase the price
The cost of life almost as high
As crossing Heaven's border
For the heathens' health and home
We offer you no quarter
Here lion rules devour
All the naive little lambs
And prayers will fill the bellies of
The beggar's hungry hands
Now fear and hatred subjugate
The mass consumption slaves
Buying that salvation lies
Somewhere beyond the graves
Locked inside such walls we jail
Convictions in a cell
Of mind incarceration
With a death sentence to hell
In anthems of hypocrisy
To not take part is treason
Yet burning cross injustices
Need only pious reason
To deny the evidence
That helps us to evolve
From silly monkey problems
Flinging **** can not resolve
Unless this nation under God
Pledges loyalty
To the truths it has forsaken
We can not be free
