Illegal Immigrants
This poem was written after I took a tour of the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument in Wyoming, the site of Custer's Last Stand.

It was the year eighteen sixty-eight.
The U.S. government signed the Fort Laramie Treaty.
The Black Hills were to be closed to white settlements,
Preserved...

Illegal
I climbed over trepidation
poverty's barbed wire night
torn by your prosperity
my one change of clothes
thirsting for a drop of civility
on a deserted desert road
Scorched by hell’s kitchen
fed to death’s desiccate dawn
I swallowed shards of sunshine
pride's perilous knives
for one chance to be an American
to provide for my...

Illegal Immigration
The hour of darkness covers many men.
They enter foreign soil illegally.
En mass invasion time and time again.
The problem is arithmetically 
impossible to stop. Deportation 
is just an empty word that represents 
a losing battle across the nation. 
Until we take a tougher stance, miscreants 
below...

An Outrageous Case of Illegal Immigration
An Outrageous Case of Illegal Immigration

By Elton Camp

We hear much about invasion from Mexico
But the U.S. northern border is the way to go
Aliens can, and do, cross with greatest ease
For proof, here’s an example of one of these

There is a man who comes and goes...

In 1920, my father, 16, was a guest of the British government. He was a prisoner of their forces occupying Ireland at the time, a group called the Black and Tans.

One day he and seven other prisoners were brought out of their makeshift cells to...

Illegal Dying
Illegal Dying


On pursuit of greed
On pursuit of fame-
Gambling with precious life
Is no longer funny play.
We don’t guard ourselves
Marmon broke all bounds
Greed, flood gates opened
There’s a deluge
That inundates humanity.
We’re bait in water
Thrown by bungee jump
Into the deeper end
To bait wealth
With a piece meal
From our gullible hearts.	
At...

Love Is the Old Illegal, Love Is the New City Wide Ban.
Magical Malediction of Exasperated Want,

Passion Fruit splayed Eyes of the World

Are Cumming

For Christmas Charcoals

And Incinerated House Hold Pets

(Under Trees.)

Have you Gotten your Ticket Yet?

Don’t want to be left out 

In the cold cold Ugliness,

Now Would’ ya?

Fragile, So Don’t try and Get away,

I’m Quite sure your...

ELEPHANT’S GHOST
I am represented as a trinket on a 
Human's wrist.
I was bought from a vendor,
Sometime last September,
I remember the vendor, he was,
Approached by a man in the street,
This man had stepped...

Heartbeat
If six years ago 
had been today
...
would I be 
the survivor or
the accused?

in Alabama state

technically
the baby had made 
it to eight weeks
...
there had been 
a heartbeat

if six years ago 
had been today
...
after my partner
assaulted me and
the placenta detached
from my uterine wall and
my body wouldn’t give...

Premium Member So Many Opportunities Lost
Hers was a complete change of personality, moods, and friends
Her joyful happy self, turned rapidly sarcastic, mean, and secretive
Her eating habits changed; she did not need food any more.
Stopped eating with the family, painted her room black.

Threw her flute into the garbage. She had outgrown...

Deport those filthy illegals, go call the cops!
But not the brown losers who are picking our crops
We won’t tell them to go
Who else would stoop so low?
And it would cause inflation in our grocery shops
