Premium Member Jallianwala Bagh
The occupation of India began, with the East India company
And prospered across large swathes of Indian territory
Then the British Crown took control, bringing military might
And to maintain superiority they were prepared to fight.

The British saw themselves as the ruling class elite
Opposing their occupation always ended...

Do you see What I see?
Dr Fauci says to wear a mask and social distance, it will prevent the spread of the virus. Has it, NO! It is spreading like wild fire. Fauci either is wrong or he's lying or both. I think both!
How do...

Premium Member Oh Moon
Oh moon, so full, so dearly
bright, You are the light 
of lovers; misty glow of night,
Dimmer than sun, his subordinate 
reflection, yet remains he jealous 
despite; for even death, cannot silence 
love’s forever brilliance, vows
trans-versing ages--the grave a 
mere cycling phase…each new face 
a hopeful...

LET US PRAY

Let today Sunday the 22nd March
Be a day of prayer,
Which will include all denominations,
Let us ask Our Almighty Father 
To forgive us our sins,
And the sins of this world and think 
Of heavenly destinations
Let us ask Him –  would He
See fit to...

Premium Member Shot-Gun Wedding
An angry Father, that wore a frown
has watched the rise of the devil's moon
While pacing, he's worn the carpet down
They arrive at dawn, and none too soon!

Broken curfews, her virtue at stake
The stakes are high, but the daughter dared 
Dad quickly plans a wedding date!

Where I Come From
I’m from small town homes and rose bushes overgrown, with
Close-but-not-too-close-close-knit-crazies.
Where my best friend lives down the block and I make late night trips to her house past the town curfew, because I am from just inside the city limits.
Where I can’t drive underage in a...

Puberty
Oil creeping out from a ship over a vast expanse of ocean
of pubescent faces.
Punctuated with
island chains of volcanoes,
scarred land from harsh maintenance.
Pus volcanoes erupting hormones,
hot magma dominating the land. 
Adults prepare fervently for the warnings
of unpredictable and raging climates
to no avail.
Fierce weather
takes hold of the...

to just to out and have fun and for once in her life and get drunk,
she never once considered or believed the consequences
she would suffer and how her whole...

Hot Oil In China
We have hot oil in China,
  Rising slowly from the ground
  There is a deep dense fog hovering round

The air is smokey, so dense it seems green
  The sun so hot it's making everyone lean
  Curfews so early all think it's...

Premium Member The Brainwashing Is Almost Complete
The government proposes a new danger threatening our lives
in order to sell you their protection racket against it
Fear is the successful product used by ancient empires
if we do not bow down they will punish the so called guilty
making everyone feel helpless in the eyes of...

Spring Feeling (An Ode To Michigan)
I love farmland in spring 
and new beginnings 
and winning in extra innings. 
I love a fat lady singing;
barbecues, chilling, grilling; 
no curfews, imported brews;
a lime or two beautiful women;
swimming in ocean michigan.
Bonfires waterside 
with fire flies flying by;
whiskey bottle by my side;
sitting, sipping, simply...

Premium Member Do It For Your Children
Here are the cold hard facts everyone.
If you have given birth to a daughter or a son,
their future is going to be a very harsh and dark one, 
as will all of their future generations.
No one appears to see what I see,
hiding in plain site...

From Afar
Headed for home on a greyhound bus
With four years of freedom behind me
Back to the homestead where my father ruled
Trepidation for what I know will be
Rules I never followed before I went away
Curfews lay broken at the door
Constant yelling and degrading remarks he made
Nicknamed stupid,...

I'M Grown
Look at me I'm grow.
I want to be out on my own.
I always did what I was told, but now I'm grown.

No need to worry just stay off my back.
Take a chill pill and relax.
Don't want to hear the facts cause I already know, I'm...

Corona Virus
HEY YOU DEADLY VIRUS! What have you done to the world?
You came in like a hungry wolf
We are shattered because of you
You made our governments create new rules
People are locked inside their houses with weary looks
Wondering what to eat and planning on their next moves

Thousands...
