Ask Not Why You Reap Such Ills


Like a tight jar your fate rests sealed
Life strains under its heavy goals.
After death, truth's light is revealed
Lying lips are kissed by burning coals.

Loud roars cry out life is so unfair
Beg pay for merely knowing your name.
You play, wandering...

The Lure of Society's Ills
A creature lurks with a formidable eye
using bright color as a disguise
the sting of the fire breathing mastadon
seals the fate of a life gone wrong

Demonic pleasures to be obtained
through taboo-stricken means
and the real scheme being
there's such pleasure to be gained

Larger doses surrender you faster
numb and...

Ills of Smoking
Can I be any different from the dragon,
Can I be more precious that the dinosaur,
Some say it warms me,
Some say it flavours adorn me,
Some say it savours my body senses,
Hey! i smoke,am distinct,
At bay its death lurking about ye advicing you to be extinct,
A moving...

The Incurable Society's Ills
Two scales must always be within an approximate range
for an accurate weight, and the close relationship
between the Humankind and God must withstand any change.


Solutions must be found before catastrophe approaches,
and if we were caught by surprise, we would regret the outcome;
less trees should be cut...

Ills of Our Society
Athletes jog on Victory Field,
I join them to test my endurance,
but underneath the bleachers kids smoke weed;
are these the bright young men of our future,
who will be the backbone of our Nation? 


Drivers converse on cell phone,
paying no attention on the road,
the traffic light suddenly...

Pills For All Ills
Pills for all ills

Here are my bottles filled with pills
Which doctors claim can cure all ills
Amoxicillin for ear, nose and throat
They've never worked for me 
So they don't get my vote

Mirtazapine to keep me calm 
Works better than a herbal balm
Ramipril for high blood pressure
Taken...

God Forgiver of All Ills
Oh God, forgiver of all ills,
To thee we lift one voice;
Through thee, our reason is instilled,
Our wills, granted free choice.

Upon the cross on Calvary,
Thy only Son forgave
The errors of humanity;
Our weakened souls, he saved.

Thy justice is all-merciful,
Rewarding self-control,
Then sparing tortures that befall
The sloth of weak,...

The Companionable Ills
The companionable ills, short heavy breaths
 with which I force the wind into my blood,
 chill and whisper- that I am not 'complete',
 that my youth has 'run dry', and yet this poison lets
 me the world unfolding with unforeseeable possibilities:
 the jut skulls of...

Talk Therapy As Fulcrum To Leverage Psychological Ills
Oh...and hello
to you, some hours past, I
returned from counseling,
(hence this boy yent -
     albeit beastie boy 
     figuratively basking
in fading afterglow)
great kickstarter session,

countless moments ago,
sans treatment plan,
she facilitated emotional airflow
i.e. Stephanie Dodds,
(sat straight as an arrow)
whereat this...

Social Ills
Past behavior predicts future insanity 
Child lost in ills of society
Driven past attention disorders
Family lacks law & order
Her right arm, left to the dark
Deep down, heart torn apart
Longing for parental love
Daddy gotta make da money baby
Stand steady 
Attention in the form of money
Mommy ain’t ready...

Clean Up the Spills of Ills
The gulf oil spill… drilled from the depth of ills
A battle between money and men, power and perils
A quest to depopulate the world by the New World Order
A sect storming every sphere of our seas with oil disorder

The continuous extraction of oil and fossil fuel
Has...

Written Skills Or Mental Ills
Engage each word of this poetic verse
For it reveals the truth of a concealed curse
Contained within the shadows of my written skills are the depths of darkness and mental ills....

Premium Member These Ills
These pills I now take,
in my advanced age.
Are the Ills I've committed,
when I laughed at the game.
If I knew back then,
what i know today.
I would be a billionaire,
But it doesn't work that way.

Crase Men
CRASE MEN

They are hiding their crase
Democracy it is
But it's not demonstrated 
Their crase in obscurity
Pretentious crase men

Dwelling in gigantic villa
Their violent color Agbada
Picking money from the flaws
The masses they prey on
Our needs they scatter for
The people they stranded for

Their hobby is to lobby
They buy us...
