Hi
Hi...Just the Devil dropping by
Big *** sigh..No longer do I wonder why
Angels burn while Hell does turn
Cold like my heart..still I yearn
Fiction fanatic..My words are my magic
Hair stands up from my static
Hate me lovely..Beautiful is ugly
What eyes behold..go ahead judge me
I want to care..My heart wont dare
Still I look..Can't help to stare
From afar..A distant star
Reality a reflection of what we are
I am here..You are there
I can rip..You can tear
Open up to a fantasy
Door from you straight to me
Twist the ****..Drop on by
Spark up a bowl..We can get high
Vibe together side by side
Inside each other we can't hide
Truth today told me a lie
No good is bye so I say Hi..
M.A.N 6-13-14 This is an odd one but I enjoyed writing it..

Write me a poem
About anything but love
Make the bleak seem enchanting
The everyday spring from the page
Write about anything
Anything but love

Coyote
Political ****** lining
their pockets with gold,
mined with the blood
of America’s youth
**** the world
and all who would
rule it!
Who asked you to ****
for liberty or cheap oil?
The spoils of war will
not buy you a reprieve
from perditions flame
or indeed a single extra
day in the world of the
living...
But then, what do you care?

You are dead already.

Goin to where

The road bends

Unto the high hills

••

Finding our Courage

In love of our fellow men

••

••

You know "this world"

Don't mean nothin at all

Don't mean nobody no good

Respecting no Law

••

Seein easily

Through all that is false

••

Only the road to the top of the hill

Captures my imagination

Conquers my Will

••

Come with me
If you wanna

Be free

••
••

Goin to where

The road bends

Into the high hills

••

Have no fear
Just know why you are there


Have no fear
Just know why you are there

Come together people
and
write this poem

The end of war
we know it's coming

It's gotta come now
there's no more time
to
wait
The Blue Orchid
it's wilting in space.

The power of peace
it's gotta get moving
"If you're not part of the solution
You're part of the problem"

You hurt me
I hurt you
You **** my sister
I **** you too
You **** my child
I slaughter more.

"War War
what is it good for? "

Come together people
and
hear the cry
the mourners are suffering
but
forgiveness survives.

The dead don't dance
too many on the ground
listen
listen
We can still hear the human sound.

Come together people
and
write this poem
The one that will get
peace going.

It's been one too many centuries
no more time for this disease
eradication for this plague
the anecdote
only our words
can say

We can all share in this
our
Poem Of The Day.
"Part of the solution. . ." Eldridge Cleaver, 1968.
"War,  what's it good for", 1970, Edwin Starr.

Will this be the summer of our discontent
Or must we wait for more to understand
The dusty red and blue have merged
Whilst grasped in business' firm hand
The last of the lavender party politicians
The dawn of an enlightened age
Brought about by peaceful demonstration
Compassion replacing our rage
It's time rise and unite,
Time to balance the books
Time to listen to Chomsky
Time to trial the real crooks
Time to understand the state
Sees you as the enemy
it's generous, docile tax cow
Time for the remedy
A positive equal future awaits
Regardless of colour, age or gender
A resource based economy
Without need for ****** splendour
Sure,  it won't happen overnight
And Rome was not  built in a day
But today is the day to begin the fight
Leading our children to a better way
A way of life,  not slaves for rent
A devotion to knowledge and peace
A disposal of our disposable lives
Where we all are the same chess piece
