Best Emancipator Poems

Paul, Peter and the Tweeter
Why not choose, 
a billionaire leader?
One who is not 
an eloquent speaker.
Trouble rises,
he robs Paul to pay Peter.
The bold rich need tax savings,
forget about the meeker.

From a distance,
we watch the kingdom teeter.
Him smirking on high,
he thinks "What could be sweeter!"
Why oh...

...And Alexander Hamilton,
though know for controversy,
served alongside Washington
in the war to make us free.
Helped build up our new armed forces,
set the stage for our economics,
the prosperity we still enjoy,
he had a lot to do with it.
The man stood against slavery
when many just chose to ignore

Death,
A fate foretold 
Since the beginning of time

Master of time,
Misunderstood, 
And feared by many. 
Some say your power is a curse
Some a blessing

Emancipator of souls,
Bestow freedom 
On my poor soul.
Trapped in this prison of torture
Called a body, 
Which places limits on my true potential

I understand...

Life Poet

Contemporaneously, my thoughts ponder.
I know that the light of day supervenes when it does.
But when night comes, the blinds are yet left open.
The streetlights provide the fading sun. 
The moon glows above.
This is because in a storm the dimmer these lights will become...
If I...

Introduction

From the city on the river
Where the Sage of Monticello
And the Great Emancipator
Birthed the country, saved the nation,
Sounds a call for civil discord
In the service of ambition
From a man whose God is power,
And his name is Demagogia.

Gathering Storm

To the banner flock his minions:
Come the vengeful,...

"Ark"



books have eyes here 
they sense things 
through the turning of leaves

strange chapters
they listen to small sounds
loud lives lived quietly

they are grounded cells
measured by rings 
in untouchable ancient territories

somewhere else,
Amazonia 
sheds tears

she cries 
for her children, 
and herself, to be saved

the violator 
rapes her body
he...

An artist's pen
Whose veins are of
Cold black ink, that bleed 
Through the pages of time.
Fear not for dark realms,
Of torture, are but ignorant myths.
I have found solace 
In the arms of Morpheus
Under clouds whose wings
Block sunlight's irritating touch.
Such is the life of a writer
Whose works...

Terrible Towards Traitor

Always would be terrible towards a traitor;
Realizing there is someone who was greater;
Eyes baggy and sagging,
And behind not lagging;
Ended up being called Great Emancipator.

The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions. By Leonardo da Vinci. 


In a chasm of hate, shards descend,
Crystallized thoughts; their paths now bend.
Splintered and cracked in a furious fall,
Merging, dreary roads white lines extend.

Evil spirits spew out an obnoxious bawl.
Minds split, mixed...

A 1952s

I pulled the penny from my pocket to toss it
In the change jar. All my change goes immediately 
Into the jar upon arriving home. There it collects
Until I go to the bank and have it spun into paper. 

Government printing presses have reduced coins
To...

Two kings wage war on the same crown.
To which the fate of your kingdom is bound.

Destined collision. 
Of a manifesting mechanism.
The great schism of barbarism and wisdom.

Ruling over a nation of one.
By your actions a King's victory is won.

You are their common denominator.
Which is the...

Not all inherit a father's noble name,
Some learn deceit, others theft, and shame.
But I, blessed with a virtuous sire,
Inherited values that my heart desires.

My children will learn to reverence age,
With humility and sobriety, they'll engage.
A caring heart, I'll pass on to them,
Diligence and God-fearing, their...
