Best Buildings Poems
Buildings Go UpBuildings go up
Trees come down
Country living
Becomes a town.
Wildlife vanishes
Streets appear
The destruction of yesterday
Draws quickly near.
Lights are abundant
Stars are no more
The horizon is hidden
Behind constructions decor.
Greed runs wild
Where nature walks
Silence is golden
But money talks.
Farms erased
Corporations written
The beauty of our land
No longer smitten.
Fresh air shrinks
Pollution expands
Across this...

but allow their Palestine citizens, men, women, and completely innocent

On Viewing New Buildings In Washington, D. C.Man’s lofty hopes once soared in stone.
His architecture sought God’s sky,
In spires uprisen, sprung from earth.
Today, man’s mood is crudely shown
In concrete cubes that smite the eye,
Brute paleoliths of stone-age worth
That future archeologists, amazed, will scan,
And ponder… did ape-like artisans evolve from man?...

City BuildingsThe buildings in the city
Love to talk about
All the hustle that's within
And bustle that's without
Downtown people always
Scurrying here and there
As the buildings windows
Take on a reflective stare
Everyone around them
Always on the go
Not knowing where they're going
But staying with the flow
Not at all the least bit...

Crowded BuildingsI look across the tables filled with crowds of people and I see cliques, families, and couples. These are structures to me, under constant construction yet fully complete at the same time. There, stands pillars of popularity, supported by many butresses that cling on their...

Empty BuildingsSomewhere
Inside empty buildings
Our voices still echo
Bouncing
From
Wall to wall
Somewhere
Inside empty buildings
Where our voices still echo
Are the sounds
Of our shoes
Walking in
Walking out
Walking on
It’s quiet now...

Twin BuildingsBorn and lived as one
Suffering terrorist wrath
Housing souls within
Falling to their knees
With fatal skeletal wounds
Bleeding flesh and dust
Catastrophic acts
To the ground, loose curtains fall
Human spirits soar
9/11 names
Speaking through living voices
Never forgotten...

Twin BuildingsCock-crow precipitation -dripping
from the eaves stores cry, “no, no they weep.”
Ciao to the sun-god and the dryness coming
the conurbation awakes from sleep.
Crows roost on high-wires caws calling
begging their searching for initial treat.
Five wire, barbwire, steel-post line falling
in a fissure many feet deep.
Placid...

BuildingsIt's something in the architecture
I see a face
Clear as looking at a picture
It looks at me in this place
The walls, they see everything
People trapped inside the paint
Shadows see everything
Every heart that you did taint
I'm trying to free them
Tour all the walls down
Thought that we could...

Trump Buildings On Every BlockTrump Buildings On Every Block
Did have all of our heads deep in the sand
Inauguration was abandoned by another band
Connection by Trump supporters was not found
Now that he for White House will be bound.
Never understood what Trump may mean
He tries to avoid each confusing scene
Looks like...

The Lives of the RuinsAncient ruins stand alone,
tired sentries over ancient lands;
they watch and remember their glory days.
Testaments to their builders;
do they ever wish a glorious revivification?
History tells their stories when
they need them heard but,
the, “horses mouth” can tell them better....
