Best Home Front Poems
Come and gone like small twister
like the cloud of debris he’s left.
Echoes of Charlie Brown’s buddy Pigpen
blow through the cobwebs in memory.
Left over coffee cups replacing
Transformers still dumped in the attic.
Reams of knarley skateboards, wheel-less,
lay in piles like so much unburnable refuse.
The obligatory hugs and peck, over and done
the never paid chauffeur collapses…
Ah, to have him always near,
So, each kiss was not quite so dear.
The last fair maid on parade has wandered across
the home front, wondering about her predecessor,
still tacked with magnets to the fridge,
still part of my heart and his…
Sons…they say, do not cause such angst.
Couldn’t prove it by this mother.
This maternal blimp of unused helium
was not permitted a girl child.
One did come and fleetingly leave before formed.
We’ll never know the sweetness of her.
Let the image of his manly self disperse, this son..
into the mist as his Father’s has…
to be remembered again, only in times of need, his need,
for to do anything else, would be to rub salt
in an open wound.
Poet: D. Guzzi
*the day after Christmas
of love of war
the staff of a prophet, seen
fairness not imagine, sings
shouting out, obscenity
recognized, yet
in search of fame, seeking stance
the moment arises, seek
of voice of power, godsend
renown supremacy, yet
prophet not acknowledged, kept
desire of a great life, sought
skill of voice, articulate
hardly ever, cheek
no longer free, famous self
seldom bite snarls dogma, link
of country of faith, kinship
all that’s true, fair play
desired fame acknowledged, pent
the home front, covetousness
war or peace love or hate, just
yelp puppy love, nice

Discrepancy is an economic thing. Have you ever known this to be anything else?
Money is the great separator of togetherness. Man rob, steal, and kill just for the feel of its illicit presence. Woman will sell, which defines exploitation, steal from you, and lie on thy neighbor for just a little wealth.
These concepts are aspects of someone’s life.
Crime becomes escalated and mental health becomes the strife. The minister said within his blackness, “There has to be a better way.” However, there is no reason for this other than the lack of fulfillment and/or greed.
As a poet and philosopher, I respond, “We have to help everyone to overcome poverty.”
Note, the media and academia went on “The Tour on Poverty.” When they reported out, they showed how the Great Depression of 2008-2009 had affected the workforce and the home front.
Why are we not upset to see people living in poverty?
Academia stayed East and this made it seem that North, South, and West were the greatest downward spiral. Therefore, I present to you The School of Social Theology.
The School of Social Theology is a new school of thought that states poverty is melodramatic to us not being there for our family and what friends we are.
We live well but we do not offer the same to all.
The School of Social Theology seeks eradication of social injustice to state poverty must end. If you are working to end social injustice, today will not be the same as tomorrow...
A fight against social injustice is a fight for social justice!

I am looking for a way out.
I have been on the battlefield for too long now.
To see what my efforts are worth,
I escalate to seek progress profound.
However, I have gain insight along with a philosophical mind that is overpowering.
Therefore, I must reflect to share with others that may be in the same aura.
A tenet that is intense is that I must procrastinate fate -
Take my time to prefect a greater way.
Walk in stride of belief that
Let the people see
That the cause has evolve
To a grandeur source.
I am looking for a way out.
I want to embrace the knowledge found.
A new world discovered
New ideas uncovered
Treading in confidence because I have earn this self-image.
Therefore, I can see my own reflection.
A precept that has formed is that creation is done through acumen.
Dictum and aphorism are the rules of thumb.
Augmentation lambastes to strengthen the home front.
My eyes are in the sky!
When are yawl going to start partying in the streets -
When I am homeless on a bench or when I am no longer here?
Peace be unto you!

APOSTOLICITY
I stood at the peak of the mountain and shouted – This is our time Lord. Glory is thou name.
The sun was shining brightly.
My words came as the breeze in the wind.
I knew the Lord was beckoning me to do his earthly work.
I sanctified my purpose to evangelical.
I walked under gloomy cumulus clouds thinking about my next step.
That perfected step that would take me closer to the Lord and his intellect.
The day became glorious but a depressing state remained.
I knew the Lord was beckoning me to take a stance.
Once I made it to the home front, I retrieved the Holy Scripture and began reading The Book of Isiah.
Chapter 14 Verse 27 bellowed these words:
“All the forces of darkness cannot stop what God has ordained.”
I paused in passage to scribe.
This is what I wrote about - SECOND ECCLESIASTES: LIVING A RIGHTFUL LIFE .
The Lord gave me a voice to apply in or to life.
If I am not for right, who am I.
Wrong is not a just God.
Second Ecclesiastes is about rightful means bring rightful things.
Second Ecclesiastes is about wrongful ways abominates.
Like Prophet Solomon in his day and time via the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament, I seek wisdom.
Gainful knowledge received throughout living a rightful life in a perilous world.
Apostolicity is defined as of or characteristic of an apostle.

[MILITARY PHILOSOPHY]: METTLE IS A BETTER WORD OR TERM!
Might strength along with an image be a concept to consider?
Else, to be strong is considered to be mighty.
Tapping into another’s reserve is a way to achieve an advantage.
The test of fate is allowed.
Like acquiring power from a source of pleasure.
Easy seen when you win.
Inoculate your fortress to be invincible.
Surface your mind to ruminate stratagem.
Absolute absorption of the power you possess.
Be of focus and conquest.
Engage your thoughts and emerge with invigorating ideas.
Trade show your heavy artillery to those you trust.
Take away knowledge to acumen the estate.
Establish an institution of today.
Respond when required even if vulnerability is present.
Wage efficaciously for thorough use of all resources.
Ornate to eradicate poor will.
Ruminate the home front amply.
Defeat downfall and roar once again.
Obstinate for thorough insight.
Resist when in question.
Time efficaciously for thorough use of all resources.
Edify to educate poor will.
Ruminate the home front amply.
Muddle downfall to roar once again.

LANKY AND PLANKY
Lanky & Planky wanted to hanky pank.
They were two happy men without brains.
They thought about the Wizard and wanted to visit Oz.
But he was a doctor just as retarded.
Nevertheless, they set out on their journey to the land afar.
This was during the time of sexual introspection.
Lanky & Planky got lost.
However, they found their way once more.
They arrived in Oz exhilarated.
The Wizard appeared.
Lanky bowed to him.
Planky curtsied.
The Wizard smile and stated:
“This is Land of Oz. I am its Wizard. I watched you via my Crystal Ball. You two seem to adore each other. Therefore, why have you come to visit?”
Elatedly, Lanky introduced himself.
“I am Lanky Masters. I am here to discover who I am intimately. How I feel for Planky is love.”
Ecstatically, Planky provided his introduction.
“I am Planky Matters. I do love Lanky. However, I am sexually indecisive.”
The Wizard revealed their lives together.
One would become a woman.
One would remain a man.
Their brains were born.
Insofar, no choices did they form.
Through the power of Oz, each was spellbound.
Lanky and Planky were transformed and never returned to their home front.
Today there ingenious story is told by all in which their characteristics creates jocularity.
In that, everyone is allowed to be witty.

PUNGENTLY POIGNANT (STRONG & EMOTIONAL)
I am from the Mississippi Delta where cotton use to grow.

Crossing the Mississippi River was a manifold shown.
I went to the North to discover self.

They say the ways of the oppressed man was embedded by King, Jr.
Who went to West to learn Gandhi’s concept!
Oprah Winfrey visited his slums.
Where she was greeted as a great one.
She walked through the City at night.
Gaining her insight as sums of sums.
You see the Northern region of the U.S. desires the prophecy that man bought via

The time of servitude and bondage.
Today the power struggle cover is iniquity.
A paved path of emplacement is the European man statement.
X marks my footsteps said 101 Black Man of the Delta President.
He is a statue of political etiquette.
He hides behind a culture of low-downiness.
He broadens my world as the bawdiest *****.
We all family out.
What do we talk about?
The systematic discrimination happening in our lives.
To conclude, family and friends is how we socialize.

Get your house in order.
Your blood does not provide a hidden culture of defiance.

THE HOUSE OF LORDS
I am from The House of Lords
where men are great and women are whores.
I am travelling to the home front to inform
my country that war is to come.
Our rivals are jealous of our fortune.
They sent a woman because their attention becomes grave.
I am sharing this with my fellow women for solidarity and support.
I must bring honor to The House of Lords.
Cohesion is the militia.
We all aimed to a common cause.
We know our men are our strength; therefore,
we must morally espousal.
I come to empower.
We will write to enrich and advocate for corroboration.
In that we fight for our self-worth,
Let us henceforward.
We will stand in the piazza.
We will speak in our clearest voice.
We will bring insight through our performance.
This will be an enjoyable time for all.
However, when the time comes, we must declare war.
I came to home front for stratagem.
Our military are strategic women and men.
Insofar, we know when.
The House of Lords is foreshadowing a liberated country for its inhabitants.
Our conflict is with those hostilities because of our affluence.
We are their weakest point.
For that reason, we know that warfare is to come.

PLIGHTS FOUGHT TOMORROW KNOWN
WRITTEN FOR DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. HOLIDAY 2016 (Versified!)
As days transpires, better we focus.
As life transgress, better our voice.
A walk, a talk, a political aspect of religion and righteousness.
Via the Founding Fathers we separated church and state.
Socio-political and socio-religious are the floodgates.
As we remember, tears may drop,
Is it the strength we possess that ruminates us?
We overcame our struggles and we are abreast to our accomplishments.
We are the United States of North America.3
Analysis of our external environment let us know
that we are a strong workforce.
That we are no more separated by the color of our skin.
That our unity is our identity of different nations of human beings.
That our mien is our self-image of economy –
the” big picture” of demeanor.
When we falter, we recoup.
We do not assume we will fall from what others do.
We are the people of our regions that are vast and wide.
We are negotiators of our lives.2
As we celebrate today in our mind-sets,
we know what may overwhelm us.
This could be how far we have come.
Or, it could be how far we will continue to go -
to climb the mountains that we must peak -
to deplete human suffering from the illness we perceive.
That is what is known and all the possibilities.
We have witnessed many tragedies from the
time of formation to present day.
But oh, we can find glory just as well in our beliefs,
creeds, and unity.1
Envois is this discourse.
Pro-activism edifice verbalized.
But to no idiom this loll.
We are all part of the same universe.
Each has his or her role to play.
All are formidable when the goal is stated.
May one be easier than the other?
May we strive to be a part of the same country?
Where we are awe-inspiring but together.
That is on the same page.
Where our lives are the similarity, and the same is our home front.
This is right outside our front door.4
The plight is fought and tomorrow is known!5

TODAY’S WOMAN
A column can scaffold a back that is enervated.
We as women will burden ourselves with hate.
That is we will take on another’s disintegration.
All in that business is a mess.
It becomes our plight to fix.
We sing our songs while we take on the world.
We continue to overwhelm ourselves.
When we know anything, we have achieved success.
This is a formidable woman’s road map.
The lines she follows gets her there.
Intense in thought and with mind involved she forms the stratagem.
Her purpose is to inform the world.
Her future is, therefore, passed on to next baby girl.
Imminence is still yet to come.
Unless the world is in a formation discovery, we are backward spiraling.
The diffident disguises our lack of unity.
How obtrusive we are.
A conspiracy is inferred.
Reticent is unreserved.
We are a political powerhouse that must be robust.
We as women are the conditions of our home front.
We must disallow polluted waters from the wounds that bleed.
We must not be garrulous in our activism.
Cagey old women we will become.
When there is a reason, we must step-to-the-cause,
Insofar as our souls and spirit are intertwined,
As we segment, we can inspire all women to intermingle for support of universal health where women help each other to move forward.
For those aforementioned, our draft has been self-possessed.
We are women of potential acclimatization to invigorate, innovate, and to inform.
We are tomorrow and the future forthcoming.

FOR PROLIFERATION OF THE IMMIGRATED SOUL
There are those people who would not leave their country no matter how the trouble comes.
There are those people who leave the same regardless of loving home.
Yet, there are those that leave their country just from the mere thought.
They want to embrace diversity.
They want to experience the world.
America the beautiful is origin to the immigrants’ daughter or son who travelled to our shores with his or her spirit and soul.
Contented to find his or her own niche in the world.
Encircled by the strife and the struggles that confronts them to develop within an economy that has its depths of despair.
You now consider one selves native born because you are part of a government and a home front.
Our neighborhoods are our safe havens.
The bases of our freedoms is this interior.
The Statue of Liberty stands in the great State of New York where immigration manifested and destinies were sought.
Today you harbor the same protective thought that your worth is palpable to autonomies given.
A sanctuary that cherish your diversification, America the beautiful you come concentrated to growth into frugality of a new generation.
Determined to your mien, your consideration is the right to work.
Your interconnectivity represents your material culture.
Sociability, you strive to thrive in divergence...
For proliferation of the immigrated soul that came to America as a catalyst within a new world.
Stand now for your self-determination, for your independence and choices...
You have the freedoms and the hope for a greater tomorrow.
Social sets and communities will form.
Welcome to the United States of [North] America!

IN THE DEMEANOR OF GOD
We deployed military to Afghanistan to fight terrorism, but nothing has curtailed.
Today we are up against ISIS in Islamic worlds whose cipher can be deciphered.
One of these old days not so long to come righteousness will transform.
There is poverty yet known of mind-sets and/or of hunger.
We as a world should be concerned with that that affects our home front.
We as the universe know that the influence of poverty as a mind-set henceforward a famine state.
But oh, one of these old days not long to come righteousness will unleash amidst mammoths.
In a Biblical presence, do we coexist?
We are the ideology and the historical eras.
As the sun rises in the East, our daily lives become the idiom.
We are diverse in dialect.
Our world is the Unites States of America.
The sun shines on the righteous.
Humanitarianism is our cause.
We want universal peace for one and for all.
But oh, these are the precarious times.
A righteous mien is the will of the Almighty God.
The philosophical tenet is that a man (or woman) that does not fix his (or her) own problems, God will help resolve them.

[A] World is us.
[The] World is the universe.
Attuned to captivity from the freedoms denied to others internationally,
only defines true political activism.
Benevolence does not just form even in civilization.
We must annihilate those that deny peace.
This is where we find our true leaders.
For the love of God, let’s stand together as a method of wealth.
Formulate the terrorist to close the flood gates.
Our grief and bereavement states that we will die one day.
Therefore, our journey should not be negated by killings premeditated.
The world as a systemic force defines the people who invest in hope.
The emotions shown from unnatural occurrences demarcates a new system of
government.
Forum for Discussion - we will define (M)ilitant (C)ommunism.
It is our civic duty to bring forth new theory.
A world as us deals with our home front.
Unnatural occurrences do shape world war.
Once ignored, it overwhelms the balance of amity and peace.
We are the people that find responsibility in ideology.
Militant communism is to be.
For the love of God, let’s endow humanity a greater passage to a new era where
peace is positioned in precarious time and not through terrorism
contradicting creation and life.
For the love of God, we should appose right from wrong where we do not
condone beheading at all, but stand together to eradicate all aberrant
mind-sets to preserve human existence.
For the love of God is an outcry that describes a terrorist attack.
For the love of God, Why?
