A world without war . . .
When was mankind ever without it?
Over the centuries,
Rumors and the rumblings of war have seemed to persist.
Little does it seem there is anything the common man can do.
Do we even believe in the possibility of peace?
We dream and sing of peace. As John Lennon sang,
“Imagine all the people livin’ in peace.”
The world would be such a different place.
How wonderful to think of that – a world in which
Our children need never fear war’s horrors, and
Unified in peace, all nations thrived!
“Triumphant” would take on a different meaning. . .
Were the world at peace, “triumphant” could be defined
As an adjective for overcoming prejudice, hate, and greed.
Rich in love would be our world. In fact, we would be heaven.
Respect long due for a new paradigm
Another form of love is here to stay
In flying colours passed the test of time
Name is no shame whether she he or they
Beyond the rainbow glows a brighter day
Over the prejudice high and above
Worldwide waving symbol of peace and love
Live and let live without prejudice
I believing in basic freedoms for all,
Being fair and just, principled
Equality being a God-given right,
Regardless of race, creed, or nationality
Always following the Golden Rule,
Loving always overcomes hating.

Hot white harvest
a bone dry land
years have been spent building
this reapers Machine on desolate Sand
American madness
An empire of a dream, dark
start the towers gleaming.
Reaching into open sky as ravens
gather to blackened
out a sapphire sky
reapers machine
Dead at last
Among the shafts of wheat
there in it’s rusted stance,
Headlights broken dead eyes stare
Light nova’s off shattered glass
shown bright like Sunbursts
on the Fields of barley and rye
A Machine built on the backs
of the damned
enslaved
Lost and insane in distant summers ago
rains hide far over the mountain range
White horizon seam
hot white sands
A bone brittle days
years have come to pass
the machine of man derelict at last
on these brutal wind swept lands
American empires of madness
dream of a reapers machine
Dead in its last stance.
Eyes vacant gleam,
under a harsh yellow sun
Among the fields of wheat and barley…
God but a word, unless felt in our heart
Ingrained prejudice, makes us feel apart
Verily, through surrender, our prayers start
Inviting Gods grace, to fill us within
Night and day, He cleanses feral toxins
Guiding us, we feel His touch on our skin
Grace in-pours; there is no separation
One with oneness, each breath meditation
Dwelling in heart, vibrant is our silence
Living thus in divine entwined parlance
Yielding to love; life a celebration
Grace us with your embrace: our entreaty
Remove dark voids and our impurity
Acts, words and thoughts, let each with love align
Clear light of truth, please to our mind assign
Ensconced in Your arms for eternity

Reign of terror plays out
Endless nights as victims shout
So many good ones vanish
People must hide their anguish
Equality is a forbidden word
Community's voice tries to be heard
Together they stand and die
Say a little prayer - then cry

JUNTEENTH ANTHEM
Justice without prejudice we pray,
Unsung heroes paved the way.
No cross, no crown, cries sing from the ground,
We can still hear them singing now today.
Every trail of blood that made our history,
Today bookmarks the end of their misery,
No pain, no pride, our scars can’t hide,
Our song a forever symphony.
Freedom is America's middle name; one is missing ... FORGIVENESS
LORD, please be with USA now, you are the NOW God. America needs U
"Others" feel hated, berated, executed by cop, or racial bias. Bless us
YOU know us! You blessed Pilgrims and Puritans, Quakers & Penn
Do it again LORD. Many like Rhonda are weeping ... U heard Rachel
Shalom, shalOM. The LORD will hear if we repent. Read (google) 2 CHRONICLES 7:14 (Old Testament). God forgave our Fathers their repeated sin. He's listening
No one fairly knows what a "thing" is, not before "education"
Attributes ... Names begin "THING-ing" for us, the indoctrination
Moses means "pull out, draw" as Pharaoh's daughter did
Even Avram was changed to Abraham, Jacob to "Isra El" by God
Some naming is needed. But for God, human SHUTDOWN would be the rule!
NOTES:
1. Most of the species on the planet communicate very well, and minimally with words and sounds. After all some 75% of human 'dialog" is non-verbal.
2. The fact that "God" or somebody changes names in Scripture, to better represent the prophet or messenger, SIGNIFIES that "naming" can go "wrong."
It’s sad just how low, American leftists will go,
Mentally ill by the thought: TRUMP WINS—two in a row.
Pelosi—their Jesus, decrees moral high ground,
Enter Schumer, Nadler, and Schiff—three idiot clowns.
And yet, not one strategy has rid them of him,
Charlatans and liars—appropriate pseudonyms.
Hating on this president, three long years now and counting…
Trump Derangement Syndrome—a social disorder,
Hampers millions still clinging to their losing New Yorker.
Impeaching popular presidents, with opinions—not facts,
Should scare you to the polls—to vote Donald right back!

H ate is not a pretty thing
A ll who hate miss many joys
T hrills with friends, elated songs that ring
E ven their children caring, sharing toys.
I n some places throughout this world
S ad are little boys and girls.
N o one can know how they feel
O nly those who mourn such loss as
T hey, who’s folk passed in killing fields.
A n unnecessary loss has
P ut a signature on every broken heart
R emembering such tragic scenes
E ach child and adult do impart
T he horrors of death they have seen
T hey’ll cry mourning tears; suffer scary dreams
Y ou can’t imagine all the pain.
T hey lose loved ones never seen again
H ope will be lost by generations
I n every heart, such disdain
N ot only in their tragic nation
G od is the only one who can heal their pain.
Transitions towards a worldwide truce
Highlight our hearts, hopes, hymns and
Inspire us to embrace peace as a truth
Spread globally strong from love’s roots.
All prayers seek universal peace,
Love-filled hearts breathing ease and
Living life as freedom guarantees.
Corrupt power holders need be
Outnumbered by justice seekers,
United in faith to crumble cruel
Leaders and their false rule, to then
Determine all lives harmony soothed.
Blessings of equality could be as they should be,
Enjoyed by all brothers and sisters of humanity.
Diversity thrives today and
It takes many forms.
Very nearly extinct once, It’s returned.
Each time it’s experienced,
Reveals more of it’s value.
Something brand new, of good, in this world,
Is to humanity’s benefit;
Though some have no clue,
Yes, they will benefit too.
Where do we go from here in this time in history? Man has tried to make things right, but he can't.
Where do we go from here? God has open the door to life, but man has refused to accept it. Where do we go from here? Death and life are in the power of the tongue; man has choose death.
Where go we go from here? In places; prejudice, racial intolerance are tools of the land, when God has given wisdom, knowledge, and understanding; yet man chose the lease.
Where do we go from here? Here lies in your hands, blessing and curses, death and life. You and I must make a choice; where do we go from here? It's your chose, Choose life that you and your family may live.
