Strategically placed when raised 
Upwards
By your masterful and well 
Practiced hand.
To mingle with ever changing 
Skylines 
That frown down with arrogant 
Scowls
Upon the indigenous populous of 
This just and tolerant island.
To study and pontificate upon 
Predictable behaviour, 
When so lamentably remarking,
Then to inwardly digest;
Our conclusions...

Almost always, as additional allurements arrive, ask as a Being...
 By better borne behests become best Causes ?
  Can causes create concise concepts Diligently ?
   Do doers do decidedly dumb doldrums Ever ?
    Each eek echoes egotistical efforts enduring...

COPLA 104 RESOLUTION : This Bad Guy World

Ethnicity geography parent
Ferment in spiritual cauldron :
Breed gods violent

Who wants to serve gods heirs apparent
Can believers be made to reason :
God indolent

Gods thus get imposed on others
Through violent spiritual conquests :
Meek must submit

One Way of Life spread over...

Deceit o’ bloodred,
Languish droplets bled
Elements purge forlorn
Happily e’er after battle-torn

Cruel lips kiss adieu,
Loathsome toxin askew
Slumber still mercy mine
Ador bore thou decline

Tangled web of lies,
Depths of loveless eyes
Pierced by devious dart,
Enfeeble, tis terse impart

Remiss of presence so
Willful heart nary let go.
Welcome harbinger grim,
Laid broken, weakened dim.

Come...

Soft feelings must never upset my boat;
It must sail uninterrupted as ought,
Let it to the whole world be heard this trumpet clear
That yummy things are for timid men,
Brave ones wrestle to the end
And never even the slightest bend, 
Even when flames of life sear
Nor obey...

Nor Usman’s treasure-chest you own, Nor Ali’s empty bowl,
With spirits of such great forbears, What kinship has your soul?
The honoured of their times, they lived, For theirs was true iman,
You live disgraced, as having left the paths of Al-Quran.
You roll the eye of mutual wrath,...

You want it to make sense
You want it to become clear
Your feigned self importance
No longer precious or dear
But the only one caring
And the one still in doubt
A mirrored reflection 
Of what never comes out
Lunch breaks upon you
Again eating alone
Your steak is still raw
Chewed right to...

Carbon human lives address, express ideas? debate caress'
All mammals made of carbon too'  walk and live some are; confined to zoo's, a manmade place to observe
And gather; revenue in that preserve' yet now a human
Zoo is planned, with vax and chip in many lands,...

What has one become?
Do as the Monster chooses
Mirrored in the eyes

Which Daemon will come?
The fiendish mental muses
Inanely arise

Where did it come from?
Short circuits and blown fuses
A malfunctioned mind

Why am I the one?
The object of abuses
No reason or rhyme

Is it having fun?
It rages and confuses
Plays tricks...

Years ago bold the Sun
Saffron lands 
The waters depths plagued our mind
East was once a golden hue
The winds came gently
The August people steered
their heads converse as one
We were at peace
to the west
West is the best
Gold behests the streets
The Golden  crowds
free at last...
