Poems
May 2014
Before World War III
Let our collective imagination
Turn to stone
Antique collectibles
For our future
To own
The dissent
In current politics
Tries to prevent
The Third World War…
Earth’s civil war
The third rock
Becomes
The third world
Third eye
See’s it all
But
The blind leads us
Illuminati Catholicism
The Popes
False sense of hope
Falls
Since
The World holds on
And drags us
All
Down with it
Withering destiny
Dying
In the arms of humanity
Beautiful bibles
Used against
Those
Who know no
Interpretation
The courageous Koran
Has a cordial
Approach to
Oppression
The New Age Martyr
Dies
And ties a noose
Big enough
For two
Jews choose to
Subdue
The wealth
Money is the root
Of it all
But whose truly to blame
If the claims
To royalty
Are fought by all
No-names
Fight for fame
Like nomads
Of a tribe
The top
Is pursued
With the body left behind
Most kings end headless
With their body left behind
The future
Is a faint painting
Blurred from lack of vision
The piece lacks
Precision
From those high
Off power
Making the wrong decisions
