Premium Member America the Broken
“O beautiful for spacious skies”
yet marred by all it’s leaders lies.
See it’s “amber waves of grain”
beneath them hidden is a stain

I pause  “For purple mountain majesties”
yet that’s not all that my heart sees
There “above the fruited plain”
Souls cry out for justice in their pain.

“America,...

Premium Member Honor the Gracious Doorman
Elegant traditions slowly fade.
A life of service, a worthy trade.
Helping others is its own reward;
inherent virtue can't be ignored.

Wear a tie, tip your hat,
shine your shoe, don a spat.
That's the proper way to do;
adopt a cultured world view.

Bow to kings, royals 'n mates;
respect heads of...

than competing WinLose psychic separations
of ecosystemic feelings-Right Sacred (0)Soul

The Last Kick of a Flying Horse, Not the Last Kick of a Dying Horse
- matric dance 2017

We are Ambassadors,
We are Ambassadors Embarking on a new journey,
Reaching out, towards the future
That is glittering like the sun 
Its warmth melts resolutions of today
We could mold awards for tomorrow
Walking on a new track
Leaving better tracks for our brothers and sisters
The first...

I Will Hope In He
Life is not fair nor is liberty and justice unified 
So I will hope in He the God to whom I cry

When I think about this presidential election 
And we now have Donald Trump 
I am suspect about his abilities 
And how he won has...

Premium Member Unconditional Love
Love isn't just a single word or feeling
Said to tickle an ear and leave you reeling

Nor is love abstract and void of care
But what one envisions and does all year

We convey our love by things that we do
When a loved one is hurting we hurt...

Way To Great India
Let's change India the way we need,
Let's make a Great India so that others praise our deeds;
Stop discrimination between the ruling and opponent one,
Time for us to have a new India born;
Our forefathers may not be happy with us,
Is it the same India they dreamed...

The Ambiguous Voter
Be cold or hot  
with the faith you’ve got,
The lukewarm are headed south.
He vomits them from His mouth.
Be careful at whose table you eat;
if His Word is not welcome,
shake their dust from your feet.

A presidential pick 
A thorn’s poisonous prick
in the back side 
of...

Premium Member Dear Sitruc
It doesn't surprise me that you have reached the age of 95.
In addition, you are in great shape, and you look fantastic.
I remember that your prayer was that you would not only
Grow to be very old, but that you would be a healthy aged one.
From...

Hands folded in my lap
like dying birds
I wave and they fly again

Feet tap like nervous hens
pecking for crumbs
I have nothing to feed them

My heart pounds like the neighbor
on the wall
I cannot wish it away

I try to write about beauty
Black marks on paper
That is the...

Culminating Rivalry,Commencing Brotherhood
Still waiting for the peace to establish,
The grudge for each other must finish;
67 years is not small period,
To see the 2 nations fighting weird;
Even the Germans made their wall fall,
And the Americans ended civil war;
Politics putting the brotherhood at stake,
What the delegates do with every...
