Best Band Together Poems

There are times we are left to cope
With situations that drain our hope

Leaving us full of despair
At how some people just don't care

About the evil that they do
To good people like all of you

We are left to somehow face
That in mankind there is disgrace

And those...

The sun awakes each early morn
Bright sky glows its colors adorn
Nothing but jeans tattered and torn
Miracle of life a child is born
	How come I wonder

Fly in formation at high noon
Birds band together sing a tune
Scent of lilac come early June
Summer breezes come none too soon
	How...

There, beyond the garden wall,
are fronds of grass and weeds  grown tall
A wild rose pleads for a breath of sun
just like a child who needs some fun
A greedy shade has kept her shunned

She is watered, fed, by pearls of dew
hidden by the scattered hues
of...

Political Correctness
By Franklin Price
6/16/2016

Political correctness 
Is what it's all about
Makes me want to pull my hair
Run around and jump and shout

I ask myself what's happening?
Where is my right to speak?
Think it's not here any more
Years ago it reached its peak

I'm not in a minority
In color,...

I’ve been a resident at ole Soup Creek for a while now,
For the most part, it’s a great town with folk from all over.
But through years, I've seen riff raft come here too,
I never cared too much about them; just ask Rover.

The fine citizens of...

We stand up
We gather our weapons
We band together
We fight
We battle
We win
We gain power
We are commoners over 
Emperors
We are the powerless with 
power

They came
They rebelled
They fought
They conquered
They are Royalty to us 
peasants
They command God
They are power high

Ecstasy running through 
everyone’s veins
The order of things thrown into...

predator from the deep 
 destroyer of amity
  his fin glides toward you
    voracious enemy

peace in soupdom imperiled
 by beast with many names
  his temperament assails
   engaging in mind games

from friend to friend he turns
 spewing hateful lies

I heard that there is a group called the mean girls club.
An elite group of poetesses that some like to snub.
A strong group of women who have each other’s backs,
and band together against petty and meaningless attacks.

There must be some jealousy from some not in...

When I was young, I heard my momma say, 
come here my child and sit upon my knee.
This life is filled with many ups and downs,
but you can still be what you want to be.

I was just eighteen when my momma said,
son don’t you know...

Inflicted is this society
Of depicted truths to matter 
Does it matter
When every life doesn't matter to the same accord

Accordingly, slavery was abolished 
To what effect when our minds are currently enslaved
When the only awakening comes from the mourn of graves 

Theres so much to be...

Woe to the average Malaysia, of the latter are our elected politicians....

Malaysia as a sovereign nation has been robbed in...

I Don’t Have Answers Either

I’m sitting here today
With my government on my mind
And all the folks who work there
Some out front and some behind.

“Political office” is a strange concept
Not everyone will rightly fit in.
Unfortunately the best of folks
Aren’t always the ones who win.

But best or...

The American Way

In every neighborhood
There are problems that arise.
Some never get resolved
No one that fact denies.

However:  the other day
A big story was in our paper.
Of a group of upset neighbors
Pulled off a “real-estate” caper. 

It seems the lovely development
Was being constantly harassed.
By big money...
