All For One Poems

"I Say To The"
Can you see me? 
Your eyes open but not wide.
Ears finding sound tho the message still hides.
Things we take for granted on the outside, 
easily turn against you. 
Feeling they were forgotten, left behind. 
The home which...Read More

Where Would We Be
By Franklin Price
6/6/2019

Where would we be, without this day, 
In nineteen-forty-four?
Our “Greatest Generation” , 
Went to open Europe's door.

Three score and fifteen years ago, 
Left their blood on Normandy,
Many fell, did not return, 
For this freedom that...Read More

Your Choice for President
( a suggested method for democrats this next voting season)
By Franklin Price
6/3/2019

Who is your choice for president
Of all who chose to run?
To vote for them as “Idol”
Would be “American” for fun

When the final ones have entered
And debating...Read More

Wake my news, take my message away
Communication became a red flag
Bulletins became a blind eye
Abduction, tourism, grief, and murder became my footsteps
Each time I had to open my eyes
Ignorance and intelligence became enemies
The report, reporting, and reporters became advertisements

I try...Read More

I hear the choir of the forbidden paradise
Singing true songs, with all their might.
I look through the keyhole, to catch one sight.
For behind this gate, no limit applies. 

Lush meadows and high trees, flushed in green,
From the shadows, colourful little...Read More

It's a turning point in time
A history that tells of lies and crimes
One percent shepherd and 99 blind
Led to the slaughter in a single file line

Be it less or more the same
We must shed our skins, forget the blame
See ourselves...Read More

I am me, is true
I have always been me
I have always been, not me
emotions folded into one

Wine sets mind free
to not be me
exploring contemplations
buried deep

Id tell you a story
Id tell it to you true
I shall you tell stories when I...Read More

Conflicted, dressed like a Santa Claus, Ed ponders the magical delight of Christmas time.   Is it only for Christians, or can it be for him too?  He likes this time of year, people are nice.
Bethlehem, Wisemen, Prince...Read More

Mr. President 
This world is full of hatred, people take their life for granted.
Kids going to school to learn but end up dead beside their books.
Mr. President it's not my fault that my friends grew up in the hood, but...Read More

You cant fix a certain man...
If he doesnt have a heart.
Its pointless to even try...
He was broken from the start.

Not even a stitch or a bandaid...
You cant patch or repair.
I told you that hes broken...
Theres no feelings in there.

He has...Read More

White stars, red and white stripes.
	Blue for loyalty.
Waving in the wind, instilling pride.
	Reminding us of pledge.
		Apple pie, Chevrolet, John Wayne.

Viet Nam, Gulf War, 
	Freedom of speech, freedom riders,

she often listened more than she played
they wished to someday see those
faces behind the beautiful voices
by traveling to the city to hear 
and see the sights.

they talk to much about it, and fantasied
so long that...Read More

I am a walking shadow, watching people prowl these streets
Their minds filled with perversion and degradation
I'm an observer of soulmates that amidst the weak
Fascinations so salacious and unchaste
But it's all for one woman
Fantasies of the netherworld in my existence
I want...Read More

tre three penny das ta do
 juniper juniper the opened mass
 turn over your yarn
 to the tormentors

 a silo bent through an accord

Christmas ...
A time of peace and goodwill to all
When folks smile a bit more
Hug a tad longer and deeper
Go out of their way a bit further for charity

And listen more intently to the needs of others.
Isn't it a shame
That we...Read More

     It's all there remains
     of their faces and names
     in the sanguinous pull of the Ocean.
     And ever abides the slow, ugly tides

The inky black water sucks her in further
As she descends into the black depths of the abyss
Cloying dark swirls cover her head as soundlessly it reaches
Possessing her every inhalation – exhalation - it envelopes her with force
Takes her heart, reaches...Read More

(I belong to the one in who the olden way has joined the new.)

I:- Can we meet In a park not so far away? 
Under an Ancient Oak Tree that bows to sway?
Like children in a meadow we run and...Read More

Little Bee


I've been given a fancy name for my illness
Clinically obese
It may be contagious
Never before seen in my colony
I can't work or lift a finger
Nice to see every one rally around me 
Even the queen bee is worried 
As what...Read More

Night time creeps up fog like and
Bare with street lights bending
Shapes into focus.
Zombies march to an unheard
Song that have no words or reason.
A march that must be made.

Rows of rows of darkened caves hold within 
Secrets and mysteries of forgotten...Read More

SHARED THOUGHTS, SHARED VOICES

Shared thoughts
Shared voices
Hearts combined
Minds and souls 

To bring forth
Strength and peace
All for one
Amazing soul 

Unknown strangers
This once united
To share their strength 
Spread their glow

Around the world
Their voices will echo
Their lights will shine
Relieve the burn

Break all the chains
Light...Read More

The choices I made whether good or bad
I made them on my own free will
Mine alone
Maybe I'm too young and naive to make 
 wild choices but I'm exploring my life
Maybe I do care what others think
 because like you...Read More

After fifteen years this old house looks the same, same old paint peeling from the window pane. I watched the world go by from this old porch I've laughed I've cried had my first kiss those days I've missed. When...Read More

EXAM MALPRACTICE

We are no saints, we haven't got holiness
Yet our steps can be retraced
Everyone there where he lacks 
For we're all for one and one for all

Many have been asked; they answered
Many have asked; they were answered
But if you've never...Read More
