Think, they need only to understand Understanding means commitment One side or the other There’s no middle ground The victory of the conception Means the distinction of the other The diminished responsibility of proof, just the response to obey The scale of disenchantment and disillusion that will follow The manipulation of Ferber When the political forces seek loyalty above compassion Correct positions aligned will come to the poet to the intellectual Not abstract to be the mouthpiece of the tyrant Once the voice of the abstract people Now slaves to their cause A scapegoat for their errors An undeclared war on society Pitting those who will gain the advantage and to those who will find discrimination, disappointment and depression Ignorance will be the death of our democracy

Try to be happy You have to pick the Elements of Life You ask yourself what they are the answer is quite easy you just have to sit down and think about and comprehend it....... Before it's too late..... Life is a Gamble..... Because humans are playing dice to make it to the top...... Everyday we have consequences .. and choices we have to... make.... and this hollow world..... Sacrifice is the only way to live...... Because you can't have it all. Because someone will always have it better than you Even if you gave it your all Troubles will always find a way to hunt you And to you dig your own grave..... Mind and body it's fragile........ Like a porcelain doll.... Because everyone breaks in little bits pieces at the end......and turn into decay because humans are like dirt trying to grow into a spout ...... But if you can think courageous..... All of your worry and doubt can go away for a period of time...... If you take the wrong step They could find a way to attach to you like a spiders trap..... Think resilient.... A wise human can defeat deaf for a Shorts period Of time if they only clear they mine from the devil's grass.... always remember Laugh at the ones who think they can harm you with guns and bullets because ideas can be Bulletproof........ You can make a mockery of my words as you will..... But it has been proven before beginning of time it happened proven ideas are true devastation..... Words are just a plus and the mix.... So here's a gun and aim at me and pull the trigger..... So I'll say my prayers for this December night I will not miss his world because I sleep underneath the stone...... Enjoy your petty politicians.... We are obligated To vote for a man and a suit and tie with blood on his hands......... That's a joke everybody laughs..... Just a Pawn trying to rebuild a empty Relic does not even exist anymore..... the 50 states equals blood..... the stars mean tears from the Fallen and the Forgotten.... You do not have to be a soldier marching out for war. Every human is a soldier And their own type of way.... Because every soul is rare.... Just walking a different path..... If you're going to try and give it your all..... Or don't even start..... Failure is not an option... But watch your step...... Because this Valley it's filled with snakes slithering in the valley of Sorrow

you got your back against the wall son situation takes ***** but you find yourself looking at the man in the mirror it looks like he's falling apart.... You stare at yourself with disgust.... Because you are starting to come the monster you say you would never become You can't defy the things you have done to people you love.... You pushed them away and they pushed you back... Now you can't go back to them now... they gave you chance after chance but you denied it with no hesitation... Now you have burned that bridge and you can't repair ashes.. now you are alone to walk a New path... but you have questions to ask yourself.... the big question is are you really alone... it's a woman in your life she says she loves you.... she said she will always have your back... but you don't know who to trust... if you leave yourself vulnerable will she leave you in the sand to die will she keep her promise... some promises are meant to be broken.... but you love her too you told yourself you will never love again you have lie to yourself again.... now you have a new choice to ask God but he is silent just like usual... you wonder why he doesn't answer now you start second-guessing yourself should you try the patch things up with God maybe he might answer..... that leaves you with two options.... Walk through the tunnel of darkness Or walk to the light You don't have to make the choice alone 💞So I will listen to my heart ❤️... If you break my heart I will die dear beloved..

My dear friend I know how you feel Life has so many twists and turns leading you In the wrong direction but you have to keep strong don't give in to your demons they will **** you I'm so broke All the cuts and bruises on my arm could tell a story But that is the path I have chosen to walk Sitting here in this dark room waiting for the end It is so complex I know But I cannot fall but I must live another sunrise for you my dear beloved friend but some days it is hard to breathe like a dying man who's so far away trying to fight for every last breath those days are the worst some nights I find myself talking to The Man in the mirror clearly it looks like he's falling apart I tried to help him pick up the pieces he keeps pushing me away now I don't speak to him no more that's another friend I have lost who do I talk to now.... now I fine my self outside this November night to Greek the Man in the Moon he is silent just like usual looking down at me with disgust but I cannot judge you because you are alone just like I am I would like to wish you a good night my dear old friend....

I miss you Isabella Rose
He could feel it His body turning to dust Like the others around him He didn’t wanna go Not now. Not when they’re almost done. He could do nothing but feel pain          I don’t feel so good. As he stumbled over to the man who helped him The man who shaped him His hero, mentor, father-figure. It wouldn’t be long before he too was gone So he fell into the man's arms And in a voice holding nothing but fear   I don’t wanna go, please, I don’t wanna go. He fell to the ground his feet turned to particles Continuing until only his head remained. He managed to get two words out to the man Before the dust took him like it did countless others The man with eyes stricken with grief and despair and anger The man who could only watch as the boy left this world               I’m sorry.

The gold fish named Tony (a poem) Happily and freely Does the fantail goldfish Named Tony Swims With out a care in the world Tony thinks The world is a peaceful place Yet he does not know Much of what goes on Beyond the fish Bowl But it is better Then hearing and seeing The bad things That happens outside of the Fish Bowl So freely and happily Tony swims Ignorance is bliss When you’re a fantail goldfish In your little slice Of paradise

Tony the gold fish.
When looking for people, you'll always find food. So look for food, and you'll find friends. Cause that's how it always ends : with good food on their hands, a table surrounded by friends.

To Tony
She's missing, they're sure of it now. They thought it strange no one called, not a word, not a sight, not a sound. We fear for her, missing overnight. They're searching, asking questions now. Locals helping, no one sleeping. No word yet, family weeping. Headline news, tension rising. It seems like a week has passed by. Police announce an arrest, unspoken ********** fears. Volunteers asked to stand down. Missing, she'll always be missing.

I Like Jazz (d) by Tony J.R. Wilson Maybe it's been lost In the hearts and souls Of the youth, But jazz has Lived and will be alive! Live life, jazz and all! Live jazz; jazz us all! I like jazz. Jazz is all! Lick the spoon of jazz After scooping jazz In the hearts and the souls Of the youthful soul! Love that jazz as your own! Like that jazz and just get grown! Listen to the jazz that's played! Listen to the notes not played! Listen to and understand that jazz! +++++++++++ Yeah, it's not the thing You hear When Looking for an easy swing, But Look into your heart and find that jazz! Lead into your soul and See that jazz alive With burning fire! Jazz is sweet and burns With flames of fire from the soul! Let it go and let jazz in From head to toe! Let life jazz and let go!

Let Them Know You Love Them (d) by Tony J.R. Wilson Love can bring these: A lasting joy, And last of all, The light of life. One can sigh and wait For just one lasting face That looks into their eyes and says The things that make them know Who they are and what they need. This is what one needs: A lasting face, And most of all, The love of life. It's not enough of What is love that's Put in one's mind: The thing that takes Away from what is true love Is the sacrifice. A sacrifice is what makes love: When one may leave the other In the ground, but takes the time To dig the other out, Love is made. I can't live without The knowledge that I've said something That you've heard: Take some time To think about The things I've said. I want for there To be an everlasting Lesson here that makes The ones you know and love Let you know they love you.
