Double Chained Sonnets

(1.)
Clock Sounding, Its Hum Of Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock,
Double Chained Sonnets

World, our existence, more than mere charades
charades of fantasy, dreams and parades 
parades often growing beyond the pale
pale in reality, to pits of hell.
Hell born of deepest darkness, lies one rides
rides of vanities, sin of mortal prides 
prides born of aching heart's truth deep inside
inside soul of man, its dark oft so wide.
Wide open arms, beseeching ever more
more pleasures, gold treasures, another score
score of greed, its ever increasing weight
weight and true measures,  set by hands of Fate
Fate and world's alarm, ever sounding clock
Clock sounding, its hum of tick-tock, tick-tock!

Face History Of Humanity's Plight

Hope in life's walk and better tomorrows
tomorrows, dreams erasing sad sorrows
sorrows in marrows of decaying bones
bones too often broken by falling stones.
Stones and bloody cuts from great battles fought
fought in trenches, where mind and soul are caught
caught bleeding out heart's saddest of sad pains
pains beating woe'some fears, seeping dark stains.
Stains coloring ones journey through life's span
span of fleeting moments, gems cast to man
man within earthen realm, at its fast pace
pace of a journey and end each must face.
Face history of humanity's plight.
Plight, mortality, dread of darkest night!
