"threats" poems
So many words are being spent everyday Each of them, used to construct a bridge Where communication can take place And meet half-way, to greet each other Wondering, if that what is to communicating Only based on words and the verbose Have we bothered to see the many layers Which makes up the fragile ecosystem Yet, so often we go on eroding the surface Leaving it bare and exposed to threats That communication will be wiped off Not long, with the undermining of feelings Communication will have borne the brunt Of our callous attitude and lost forever Not only waves of words that washes away The beauty of meaningful communication It's time, we also listen to each other's heart And pay obeisance to the silence that speaks Communication will have a fair chance to survive

Communication
Turn the corner Hand tenses Looking down the iron sights I see an object fall "Tango down" I call over the radio what was his name? Tango, Threat, Terrorist, doesn't matter. Explosion Mud brick wall vaporized into dust Keep going Out of breathe Keep going Hand tenses "Tango down" Does it have kids? A Family? Threat eliminated Round the corner Hand tenses "Three tangos on west building roof top" Bullets from my brothers **** by my helmet Return fire "Take Cover!" Sweat drenched face fogs up my goggles Explosion Brick pieces pummel my back Ears ringing, faintly hearing "Alpha down, Medic!" Blurred vision, equilibrium thrown off Raise my rifle Hand tenses Silhouette falls "Medic!" heard faintly Hand tenses "Are you okay?" sounds distant Hand tenses "babe?" getting louder Hand tenses Hand tenses Wake up Sheets heavy with sweat "Babe, are you ok?" Throwing the blankets I jump back to the edge of the bed Her frightened face I've seen before I look down Hands tense Same look, no tangos No threats Just Ghosts

Spa D is on fire Administration is a liar Student body has a desire Let's fulfill our needs before we expire You think your threats can stop us I'm sure we didn't want to make a fuss What makes you be at a nonplus Let us know when you are ready to discuss For how long will you bluff? Don't you think it's enough? We've suffered enough over the years We have overcome all our fears Don't light up the fire with our tears You better stop playing with our careers All that we ask for is some trust But you left us all in utter disgust Spa D is on fire Administration is a liar Student body has a desire Let's fulfill our needs before we expire

Love the wife of Loyalty stands with her husband's arms wrapped around her and her arms wrapped around him in an warming embrace. Loyalty looked into the eyes of Love and said "My beautiful, beautiful, wife you filled my heart with joy by becoming my wife. My world revolves around you. I will always be there for you. I will stand by your side and help you chase after your dreams. I will protect you from all threats." Love gave Loyalty a squeeze and said "I too will stand by your side and help you chase after your dreams. I will be there for you in your time of need or when ever you just want me by your side." Love and Loyalty looked into each other's eyes and began to kiss. Written by Keith Edward Baucum

The sky crackles and I feel the most alone. Just like that day in the woods. My special place was off the trail, but he couldn't have known me, I was so young and such an idiot, Not everyone is genuine but I was so trusting, I can still smell the sickening mixture of fresh-fallen rain,his sweat, the mud around the creek and salt from my tears. With every atmospheric collision from the sky my stomach churns tasting the blood in my mouth from his fist thundering against my tear stained cheeks. When the wind blows I can still feel his callous hands bruising and exploring my unwilling body, and scraping against the most intimate parts of me. The lightning is when I remember the rock that found my desperate palms and crashing against his temple The wind howls and the rain finally starts to fall then, near my belly button burns just like it did when the blade he swung wildly cut me before I could run and the water is my heartbeat pounding in my ears, but I can hear him behind me The rush If my blood reminding me I’m still alive mind begging me to stay that way, his threats pushing me further Head pounding ,body burning, I burst through my front door And then I start to cry

When it thunders,
Bunga Bunga everywhere, a powerful man with silly hair seduced a girl too young and scared, was married too but didn’t care. Corrupt and feared! Bunga Bunga sounds like fun, a swimming pool and saucy sun, an Egyptian that was on the run Or, under-aged Morocun Who ****** the boss! Bunga Bunga ***** and ***** coffles of women to choose and buy and grab and ride and use, with confidence and so much to lose, but why didn’t he lose? Why didn’t he lose when it was on the news and hundreds of thousands of people accused   him of scandal and incompetence? He never revealed his conscience or any remorse for play boy antics so far removed from his pedantic stereotype as a political leader, more like a ****** wheeler dealer, pervy old ***** geezer, over cologned, greasy, heavy breather; machinating falsifier; misogynistic ********** He prized a Ruby above the rest. Bunga bunga, what a pest... she leaked his private fetish fest; poor Silvio, he tried his best to hide the bribes and bets and ****** and drugs and threats but never could care what was right and what was fair. Could only care about the colour of his **** hair.

Love and Loyalty
Russia and America circle each other; Threats nudge an act that were without doubt A melting of the mould in the mother, Stones melting about the root. The quick of the earth burned out: The toil of all our ages a loss With leaf and insect. Yet flitting thought (Not to be thought ridiculous) Shies from the world-cancelling black Of its playing shadow: it has learned That there's no trusting (trusting to luck) Dates when the world's due to be burned; That the future's no calamitous change But a malingering of now, Histories, towns, faces that no Malice or accident much derange. And though bomb be matched against bomb, Though all mankind wince out and nothing endure -- Earth gone in an instant flare -- Did a lesser death come Onto the white hospital bed Where one, numb beyond her last of sense, Closed her eyes on the world's evidence And into pillows sunk her head.

A Woman Unconscious
November is the cruelest month Reminiscence forced of things far gone and Bitter foreshadowing of what is to come The leaves have lived up to their name The trees, a shell of what they once were The grass clings to its last hope The temperature makes its empty threats The beauty of Autumn deteriorates She is haughty and cruel We were strung along for so long But like all good things Her presence is too fleeting We try to rationalize her departure We didn’t need her anyway Her sister is far more beautiful Autumn was never committed We will look for someone else What luck! Her sister is coming Her name is winter! But alas, how could we love Someone so bitter and cold? November is the cruelest month Joy is attacked in a dark alley Melancholia does the mugging Bitterness steals the Hope November tears apart the heart With a ruthlessness unseen In any other month. The days are soon so short and cold The landscape is so barren There is a hint of snow But it is more like rain It is so unfortunate to see Nature’s beauty going all to waste The thirtieth is here Judgement Day has arrived It is only possible to conclude July was great if too hot indeed January hard but nearer the end September its usual lovely self One month stands alone in its horror November is the cruelest month

We've had a turbulent journey together And as he pushed the bike, slowly did his hand release me Riding the crashing waves I admit my struggle And my childish naivety gave passage to worser threats Yet still he stands there, waving me on my way Even to this day, despite questionable confidences, I still turn And still he stands there A rebel I didn't mean to be, but I am cursed with escalating emotions Or maybe he would say a blessing, to empathize and find strength As memories haunt me at night, teaming with those of ill will The sensitivity he passed on to me prevails, Innocently I am slowed But my wheels continue turning, and my heart stays true Though my eyes and ears remain obstructed, my heart makes a turn And yes, he still stands there His presence unpurposefully commands attention And his knowledge, he gives without catch I understand the wars he must encounter, and yet he stays calm Giving peace to the tide, he offers nothing, but gives everything I unconditionally love him I honestly hold respect for him, He indirectly teaches me And fuels me with his love In this moment, I turn back, not for fear of falling, But to wave back to the man who let me go He is no longer there, standing firm in his spot No My friend, my father, he rides by my side.

Recovery, Initially, is about knowing;  Knowing that change is necessary, Accepting that your life is not where you want it to be,  About facing up to your fears and anxiety Then taking the first step eventually… When you, and you alone, feel you are ready. Recovery, Critically, demands pure honesty, requires the utmost integrity Most Especially, when confronting your past traumas, your history Though it may make you feel angry, sad and often times guilty This process is key if you really want to move on, to change truly.     Recovery, Truthfully, is far from easy,  It can be fraught with challenges, setbacks, difficulty. It can hurt physically and even worse emotionally, Testing your will power to the extremity. It takes great Strength, Courage and Bravery; Determination, Resilience, in the face of adversity Recovery, Thankfully, need not be a lonely journey, Though you alone must take ultimate responsibility. There are lots of supports out there happily; from good friends, family and in your community Though it can be hard to ask for help, understandably…Let not pride undermine your recovery. Recovery, Ultimately, is about getting where it is you want to be, about starting anew daily About achieving realistic goals you have set regularly, Learning from the process; what worked successfully Starting to believe in yourself gradually, Gaining an insight into what you are capable of ...potentially Finally, Recovery is for all, a lifelong journey, Guarding against ambivalence, relapse, constantly. Knowing that every day will, in reality,  pose real threats for you in your recovery But every day also presents an opportunity… to engage with, enjoy, your life more fully.

The lines have become blurred between lawlessness and legal Shot in mid-air, the American Eagle the symbol of our freedom dismantled Big Brother can't handle the fury of Liberty within the mind of the time of those that rise Neighborhoods are war zones each house a prison, overhead are drones So Uncle Sam can listen. We give up our rights for our house and lights Forgetting those who fight the good fight. Patiently we wait at the government gate with a rumbling stomach and an empty plate. Our words are weapons that are kept in line with threats of a fine or prison time Road blocks or baracades, they're both the same So government control can remain. Shooting an American seems routine and daily life, a twisted dream. War is on our doorstep, just outside from Big Brother there is nowhere to hide.

I just want to ask one question Is the human race obeying the mathematical rule called BODMAS? Just a refresher...   Brackets, Orders, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction We have created different brackets where we enclose people like casket He's black, she's white, they are rich, those are poor, she's educated, he's religious, he's fat, she's slim... Brackets People are treated differently Based on the class that we've put them in Some are raised to power like exponents Others are trapped in like square roots...Orders The segregation has only intensified our division I don't fit in here, I belong over there My group is stronger, those ones are losers... Division Disunity and absence of love has caused A multiplication of our problems Threats, deportation, persecution We don't like them, we'll bomb them War, insurgency, terrorism, hate speech... Just problems Multiplication Every second, our population is experiencing several additions Our population keeps growing while Our natural resources are being exploited And depleting at a rate faster than our population growth Our resources are experiencing severe subtractions I just want to ask one more time... Aren't we obeying BODMAS?

BODMAS
I'm a lonely sailor, down four pitchers, I'm high and low, how often I don't know. I'm to take commands, I'm not on my own, Days with bacchanals, nights with dark. A deserted sailor, with a salient dream. Whom I'm to speak with? The sea? I've lost my tongue, I've lost me. A pure path leading to the moon, I hear the echolocation of whales, It's the only company I can think of. Threats passing within miles, with sharp red lines, A twisted fate, I dream dancing on my grave. I get old, I'm ranked high, my pockets are full. My heart is dry, and smiles are wry. Whom I'm to speak with? The sea? I've lost my tongue, I've lost me.

Lonely Sailor
He almost let out a sigh of dismay, Knowing this stint would be short lived. The common sense in his head seemed to say, "No one could be this lucky, don't have yourself deceived". His wheels wobbled and shook; squeaked and wailed, Under the collective weight of the two. Screaming threats from worn bearings that ailed, He did not want to appear weak so his legs pummelled on through. The ease of cycling was only temporary He pedalled harder to gain more speed. Then the ground began to slope gently His lungs felt like bursting as he pounded his iron steed. The journey uphill had been more laborious than he had expected. All the while, the beauty hadn't uttered a single word. His mind had drifted off even though he was worn and ragged, The thought of emerging as a couple seemed less than absurd. The crest of the hill was a cool, long anticipated welcome. He could finally ease up on the pedalling. The view from there was nothing short of handsome, The downhill would take charge and he could catch up on his breathing. The wind met his face and whistled itself tuneless. The bicycle rattled as it rolled down the uneven trail. He felt a sense of flight, there was an air of calmness, Almost had forgotten about the quiet guest on his tail. At the bottom he thought he should check on his passenger, He looked ahead as he addressed the lady. When he had expected an almost immediate answer, No response came, despite his calls for her repeatedly. He pedalled with little effort as if there wasn't added weight The bicycle slowed down to a clearing where it was dim. Fatigue was setting in as the night stretched late His curiosity won the battle and got the better of him. He stopped his bicycle and maintained balance with his feet, He twisted his torso so he could speak to his fare. The moment he did so, his heart had almost ceased to beat, To his horror, he found that the lady was no longer there...

Why am I so weak? Why can’t I be strong for once. Why can’t I be normal? Why do I live in a world of pain This reality of truth This realm of heartbreak? Why do I live in a society where I fear for my life? I fear the terrorists coming, I fear the school shooters shooting, I fear the threats that have yet to be known. Why should I, or anyone Have to grow up with this? The constant threat of something coming, The feeling of uncertainty when it come to school, Wondering if I’ll be the next victim? When will I be able to walk the streets, Not wondering if I will get shot. What wrong with today? People ask. Let me tell you. I have to grow up Living In fear for my life I have to grow up with the threats of terrorism I have to grow up Wondering if I’ll die today I have to grow up Knowing the world is falling apart I have to grow up Feeling as if there is always something bigger than me I have to grow up With no hope for a better world This world is toxic, I wonder when others will start noticing

The World Terrors
All year the flax-dam festered in the heart Of the townland; green and heavy headed Flax had rotted there, weighted down by huge sods. Daily it sweltered in the punishing sun. Bubbles gargled delicately, bluebottles Wove a strong gauze of sound around the smell. There were dragon-flies, spotted butterflies, But best of all was the warm thick slobber Of frogspawn that grew like clotted water In the shade of the banks. Here, every spring I would fill jampotfuls of the jellied Specks to range on window-sills at home, On shelves at school, and wait and watch until The fattening dots burst into nimble- Swimming tadpoles. Miss Walls would tell us how The daddy frog was called a bullfrog And how he croaked and how the mammy frog Laid hundreds of little eggs and this was Frogspawn. You could tell the weather by frogs too For they were yellow in the sun and brown In rain. Then one hot day when fields were rank With cowdung in the grass the angry frogs Invaded the flax-dam; I ducked through hedges To a coarse croaking that I had not heard Before. The air was thick with a bass chorus. Right down the dam gross-bellied frogs were cocked On sods; their loose necks pulsed like sails. Some hopped: The slap and plop were obscene threats. Some sat Poised like mud grenades, their blunt heads farting. I sickened, turned, and ran. The great slime kings Were gathered there for vengeance and I knew That if I dipped my hand the spawn would clutch it.

Friend In Respect
The greatest challenge my nature presents: Love is harder to find Hate is easier to find Within myself and others Is rejection different for me? Everybody seems to know the pain of being unwanted And idle threats and empty words are no stranger to rejection But when you say you'll **** me if you ever see me again The intention is clear The existence of my attraction Is grotesque beyond redemption I thought I loved you... When appreciation comes my way It's superficiality amuses me Because I know all that needs to happen Is breaking down the wall to my mind Or unlocking the door to my heart And those appreciators will transform into detractors Especially if the hideous leviathan approaches their vessel Not finding women gross frustrates me Because I have no reference point For why people hate me so much Which provides a reference point For why I hate myself so much It's difficult not to be dominated by this damnation But there's no way people could understand The daily subtle nuances Why should they? I don't constantly consider their lives either Even if someone tried to comprehend my life I'm not sure it's possible I've been here the whole time and I'm still massively perplexed I display my emotions Disgust I shroud my emotions Indifference I **** my emotions Hatred Is there no escape? Even with sanctuaries along the way Life feels like Everybody swims in the ocean While I'm resigned to my lonely oasis Is it possible to feel more alone than completely alone? Like a cockroach consigned to living under the refrigerator It gets so cold and dark down here I forage for crumbs only at night Mortally afraid of human contact For I know that the boot follows the light And why not? In a world where our priorities obstruct our compassion How much consideration should a real human show to a lowly maggot like me When they have to worry about paying the exterminator?
