Poem (1.)
Nights Were Our Time Setting Our World Ablaze

Youth, we thought world, our commands must obey
we headlong raced to grab new gold all day
Not knowing such may bring unholy Hell,
Slacked our thirsty throats from deepest dark well!

Living our quest for pleasure's Holy Grail
We our own desirous lusts chased pell-mell
On paths were horrific roadside remains,
Of dead things and other slow drying stains!

When those older and wiser tried to warn
We laughed seeking to burn every new barn
Nights were rampages to set our world ablaze,
In foolish glee more hell we sought to raise!

Alas! For three time allowed no amends!
As Fated black hand its early death sends!

Poem (2.)
When Man Lusts For All, Seeking All The More

Beneath heaven's stars, below mountain tops
Streets full of cars, traffic that never stops
Hustle and bustle of racing world speeds,
Seeking massive wealth, as if such life needs!

Under dawn's new glow, some work as if bees
Amass wealth for show, as time away flees
With little thought of living to explore,
What help one may give to our needy poor!

Above this sad world, sweet blue sky adorns
Nature's gifts hurled, yet red rose has sharp thorns
Careful sniff, aromatic its sweet smell,
As man's vanity such beauty impales!

When man lusts for All, seeking All the more.
Souls thus sold, oft birth war's bloody gore!

Sonnet, ( Black Curse, And Destruction That Such Greed Brings )

Poem (3.)
Yet A Cure Within Light's Truth, May Be Found

When the truth from ones life has been removed
Vacancy slows what could have been improved
Then comes decadence, its decaying rot
Buckets of woes, despite what you have got!

Life and this dark world, every soul affects
In myriad of ways, some bring neglect
Of heartfelt need for romance and true Love
That oft negates pains of world's push and shove!

Alas! Blinded path many millions walk
As wickedness in this evil world stalks 
To happiness devour by its great Dark
Roaming seas, eating as a great white shark!

Yet a cure within Light's truth, may be found
If one prays, asks to no longer be bound!
