Best Investigations Poems


Premium Member Now It's Up To You and I

We have the left; we have the right.
In the political arena they both fight.

Always claiming to be on our side,
With ferocious rhetoric, opponents they deride.

Vote for us, to be saved from a vicious clan’s
Reckless and dangerous life ending plan.

So now it’s up to you and I
To decide, who is right and who tells lies.

Now I don’t know what works for you.
I judge not what they say; rather what they do.

For talk is cheap and taxes ain’t.
I’m in support of fiscal restraint.

Now this is a fact for all posterity;
A nation can’t spend itself into prosperity.


Both sides know that this is true.
But look at what the charlatans do.

They simply make a language adjustment;
Government spending renamed as investment.

So now it’s up to you and I
To decide, who is right and who tells lies.

The finger of accusation is pointed;
As our nation becomes disjointed.

Now both sides in self-righteousness claim;
The other side is the one to blame.

I’m not sure how you deduce,
But I look at the fruit they produce.

Who supports phony investigations;
The sole evidence of their own making.

Who supports keeping people in places;
Dividing them up into different races.


Who believes they can legislate prosperity;
Ignoring all of human history.

Who believes it a proper choice;
To slay the unborn who have no voice.

So now it’s up to you and I
To decide, who is right and who tells lies.

Media acts in a partisan manner,
Thus, I ignore their constant clamor.

People throwing bombs and firing weapons;
The very definition of insurrection.

When people gather to show disgust.
That is what is defined as a protest.

There are few neutral voices.
Everyone is always spinning choices.

So now it’s up to you and I
To decide, who is right and who tells lies.

Premium Member Adoption - G and G Contest

For many many years her dream was denied
Every month she prayed, every month she cried

Hospital investigations she painstakingly endured
Sadly she was infertile and this couldn’t be cured

She spoke to her husband about adoption
It gave them hope – it was a possible option

Application forms completed, then test after test
Would they be accepted – they hoped for the best

With guts and determination they continued their dream
Would their chance of parenthood ever be seen?

Then they got a phone call, a baby had been found
Abandoned by its mother and left on waste ground

When she finally held the baby for the first time
The smile on her face was simply divine

No longer childless, with her adoption they did gain
Finally parents with a daughter named Charmaine

No One Really Cares Part2

NO ONE REALLY CARES

Part 2

With a scheme from a team of human traitors who are unclean,
Straight up extreme and using it in a deceitful way, 
Holding KNOWLEDGE of natural law, but manipulated bringing us decay,
May we all someday, see the lies and tainted blatant statements, 
If I spoke this way in person, you would probably say to drop it,
So listen closely and see these are natural law compliments, 
Right now as you read, Yes this very moment,
You have to agree, you have no spiritual mindful acknowledgement, 
To any of my poetically written comments,
This message has been sent and must be put into action but don't rush,
Even this modern day scribe, alive and learning who to trust,
Most of us hide, side with the blind, ignorantly trusting our governments, 
Raise the alarm!! Dam it's for real, we don’t even get the hint, 
We are inattentive, lack being inventive, so we sit back and don't get this, 
Ignorantly we rely on our current structured system,
So its not surprising we collectively invest our minds into everything,
We aren’t seeing, therefore we open the door to negative action,
Because the reality we are living is a huge distraction,
Our interactions of actuality doesn’t impact us enough,
To even contemplate bringing up spiritual investigations which is a must, 
We lack legit validity and the understanding of true love,
But some of us have a chance, a little advanced with minds that rush,
Who gather up enough information to start questioning, 
Asking "who in the hell, do we really trust"?
Knowledge into action with a robust mind removing the rust,
Starting to see my way forward I wipe off the dust,
With a small thought of disgust, I laugh in joy, 
Enjoying what I’m seeing while inner cleaning with no fuss,
So we must trust in ourselves, ask for help from inside,
We are blind but in time we may get a small glimpse,
When we rinse our minds, we gain insight that’s simple,
Your physical body is the temple,
You planted a seed and what's being revealed is the whole apple,
The allegorical story of Adam and eve is factual,
So listen up and go learn about the Natural Law Principles.

A Tangled Web of Lies

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
Can't help but to recall this famous quote from Sir Walter Scott...
When one reads the latest revelations on the financial scandal that is 1MDB...
Touted as a sovereign fund to help the economy of the Malaysian Nation...
What has been revealed so far is a tangled web of deception for the nation...

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
At the onset of of the saga of 1MDB, it was a sovereign fund entity....
It sourced for billions and billions in cash money for seed capital initially....
Taking out monstrous loans using guarantees from the government...
No red flags were raised, despite reservations from the management...
When the numero uno signatory is the Finance Minister himself...
And it being so he is also the Prime Minister, who is to question...

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
The wheels of international justice are turning, investigations are revealing..
Convoluted  money trails of obscenely huge amounts to the tune of billions..
From Singapore to Switzerland to Luxemburg to Australia to the United States..
And a couple of other countries with highly principled banking standards...
Are seeking to unravel the this global money scandal with the  highest stakes..
Wall Street Journal expose is churning out scandalous information of the investigations..
While in the home country of Malaysia, political warlords brush off all revelations..

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
A single plea of innocence was well propped up with tales of donation...
As gifted from individual or individuals, ultimately from a dead Arabian King.. 
Stalwart political warlords were nevertheless resolute in defending...
As a much tainted political leader wisely maintains a eloquent silence...
Even as political foes and the knowing public cry out their frustrations...
Horrified and anxious over the repercussions from this 1MDB financial cancer..

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!

When It Rains It Pours

When It Rains It Pours 

Idiomatic sayings are such a delightful way of expressions,
The truth in them may sometimes stretch our imagination..

When it rains, it pours is one such expressive gem of wisdom..
When troubles in numbers mirror realism in a weather phenomenon..  

Here in Bolehland widely hailed as a Land of Endless Possibilities...
Ernest concerted efforts are put in place to deny negative publicity...

Like minded politicians are staying resolute behind a highly ranked civil servant..
Whose exalted position demands he be above controversies as a public servant...

Electorates on the ground are increasingly befuddled and anguished each day..
As snippets of less than positive news and episodes are revealed each day...

It is widely accepted that the door of opportunity closes while another opens..
Likewise all tall tales of lies and deceit, numerous are the  twists and turns...

Here in Bolehland, there is outright shock and disgust at the latest turn of events..
After months of in-depth investigative reports, no one could comprehend... 

When the highest legal prosecution office in Bolehland triumphantly blared...
Despite the voluminous reports and papers, there was no crime to declare ....

The presumably guilty topmost civil servant was declared squeaky clean...
To top it all, he was so honorable as to have had returned millions unseen...

The gossip mill is rampant and unflattering over this latest seal of innocence..
More so when there are incoming news of global inquiry and  investigations...

The court of public opinion is out there in the streets of Bolehland...
To the man in the street, he is seeing multiple acts of Houdini first hand...

But as the proverbial wisdom has so aptly been used when troubles abound...
When it rains, it pours, especially for someone in high office in Bolehland.....

To all interested, seat back and watch the melodrama as it unfolds by each day...
When it rains, it pours should hopefully reveal the elusive truth one fine day...

Ghost Gun

Ghost Gun

Officer Smart from Oxymoron
Was called to school one day
Johnny pee pants raised his hands
He was about to pray
Teacher yelled, “He’s got a gun!”
The cop shot Johnny dead
….Then read him his rights….
Years were spent on investigations 
In hopes of finding a clue
The judge had called it a “Suicide”
Nothing else is new
Society went along for the ride
Thank goodness only one child died
Officer Smart from Oxymoron
Still searches the school today
Preventing crimes and looking for fingers 
Loaded and ready to fire
A lesson can be learned from this
That is, where not to pray
Do it in church
Or else you’ll be cursed
By the guns of the Holy Ghost ire

Precious Time

Time is precious. 
Time is irreplaceable.
In this moment in time
there is a moment that's favorable.
Time ticks, never stops.
From day to night
as the sun drops.
As memories rise to the occassion.
Another killed. 
Investigations. 
Because of want to be gangsters
and homicidal demonstrations.
Gunshots, bodies hittin the pavement
and in this time, another soul is wasted.
Lives taken.
Just reactin, not thinking.
Never waiting.
Like time.
Drugs and alchohol destroying young minds.
Too many turning down the blinds.
True saying, when they said
The blind can't lead the blind.
Too much disrespect to mankind.
Praying to God for peace of mind.
Wanting, searching, 
so hard to find.
The Devil ain't kind, 
still I try 
because, of my pride.
Hold my head high.
Though it's hard to say goodbye.
R.I.P. to my peeps
the Devil's a lie.
Time is Precious.
Time is a memory
and as time goes on 
It fades to infinty.
You will never get that second back.
In the blink of an eye
it's gone.
Just like that.
Like the people we've loved,
and the people we've lost.
In due time
we all have to pay the cost.
As we become memories in time.
In time.
Precious time.

Corruption

I too sing corruption
I waited on the bench
was told no work
reason (mkono mtupu)
yes had no long relative

I sat next to the conductor
comes an officer
wringing their hands
red-pinkish 100 shilling note
(afande chai)
but the vehicle overloaded

I went job-searching
but my less qualified counterpart had it
sexual favors I tell you
My certificates useless
I now clean the streets

In the bureaucrat
I see my tax
I see embezzled funds
several investigations
with no results

The country is mired into corruption
Who will emancipate us???
strong vespers we need.
 I really yearn for the times
when fairness will thrive
when we will sing a dirge to corruption.

A Snowflake In June

I thought I saw a snowflake in June
Perhaps, it was just silly daydream imaginations
Or were ongoing investigations really do

Upon further horizon inquiries
The sun ended interviews in blushing denial
And when heavenly interrogations finished
The sky was turning guilty blue

I’m absolutely sure
The clouds were somewhere amidst the cover up
Fortunately, a little pigeon squawked
And revealed something of the simple truth

That, there was a brewing
Conspiracy of rumors, flying 
So I ruffled stoolie feathers convincingly
To spill the beans, out with his scandalous news

It seems a wintry prima donna 
Performer of the coming season
In order to beat the ratings
Broke out early and was somewhere on the loose

Could it be
The very same stitch of ice I'd seen
A snowflake thespian
Acting out in the month of June

Then, I saw a glistening 
Of arrogance pass right before my eyes
And tiny banner waved
Followed by the squeaky words “see you very soon”

I rubbed my eyes in disbelief 
And then, my tongue was quickly unleashed
As I closed the case of any further flakes
From trying to make their premature Hollywood debuts

The Anonymous Patriot

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations can attest
That none raised a claim against him, even in jest,
And reports on his environmental conduct all agree
That he never injured a sprouting tree,
And that all he did was to the favor of Mother Nature.

Apart from a short peace-keeping mission overseas,
He worked for a charitable foundation that preaches peace,
He never skipped a day of work and never got fired.
Tax evasion was to him an unpatriotic sin,
And he paid all his levies with a mirthful grin.

All his Sacco reports faithfully indicate
That he remitted his contributions and didn’t wait
To be reminded by the office like the rest.
The media sorority remains convinced in every way
That he bought the three mainstream papers every day.

Policies registered in his name doubtless show
That he was fully insured from head to toe.
The departments of health well understand
That he was cognizant of the benefits of the National Health Insurance Fund.

He had the things necessary to a man of his day:
A radio, a piano, a car, and a house fit for his modest stay.
Researchers into Public Opinion are satisfied
That he had the right opinions for the day and year;
If things were alright, he agreed:  if things were foul, he defied.

He married a pious girl and added five souls to the population,
Which experts say was the perfect number for a father of his generation.
His teachers are grateful he was never a nuisance to their work.
Whether he was happy or free is a question rather absurd,
But had anything been wrong we should have no doubt heard!

Premium Member Finding Mr Stink

After a long period of time, there was an awful stench  in the garage.
After ceaseless investigations, we were clueless of  the origin of stink.

It smelt like dead mice, but there was no sign of any.
It smelt like gas, and we feared there might be a leak.

The Gas Utility came out; but found no sign of leakage.
Though we felt safer, I worried as the smell grew worse.

Some time ago, we discontinued using our second vehicle.
After some time, one day I pushed the vehicle into the driveway.

I do not remember the reason I moved it;
but it had nothing to do with the odor.

The vehicle was a very popular one;
The best selling  SUV at one time.

We also grew older and decided that one vehicle would suffice.
So we dropped the insurance,  ‘non-opted it’, and parked it in the garage.

Currently, it’s still a good and desirable vehicle.
But it was the choice of my wife; not mine

Notwithstanding, I was surprisingly pleased with it.
It became aged and began to wear with costly repairs.

One day I walked past the SUV as it sat in the driveway.
You guessed it. I smelt the same stink that was inside the garage.

The riddle was solved; the mystery was resolved; I found Mr. Stink.
He was in the radiator; I flushed and ran him out; he was forever gone.

Premium Member If I Was a Seagull

If I Was a Seagull

If I was a seagull
I wouldn’t have a bank account
I wouldn’t watch misery on TV
No concerns about the economy
Prices rising constantly.
I’d have my own nest
And wouldn’t need to upgrade
Or downsize. My kids would
Leave home naturally.
I’d find enough to eat everyday
I wouldn’t gorge and put on weight
I’d go wherever I desired
I’d be able to sleep when tired.
If I was seagull, I’d be able to swim
Walk and fly. Leave excrement on
Passers-by, laugh and squawk at will.
There’d be no lingering death if ill.
No coffin and false funeral
No religion and propaganda
No investigations by Panorama
No sex abuse by the clergy
No exams, no measurable stress
No jealousy, no hate, no misery
I’d be able to have sex, obviously
No bullying, bulimia, autism or 
Dyslexia. I’d suffer from tourrettes
But never need the vets,
No Shakespeare, no poetry
The odd cat might worry me.
If only I was seagull.

Find Best Friends To Come Out of Your Communal Problems In the World

Someone can advise you 
To be friend of big rich people 
To be also rich in the future. 
I am telling you to be  best friend 
Of majority poor as
They need your aid 
to destroy  the system which enrich 
Few people and
kill millions of poor people. 
Poors of the world always fight each others 
For the interests of the minority big rich people.
Who captured 
the World  
Do yourself investigations to find 
out the main problems of this World.

Insurance Fraud

People would do anything to get their hands on the money, even stealing from these people.
I'm told that people will have committed insurance fraud by either faking an injury,
faking a full disability, or fake a death. These people really need to be honest with all
of the insurance companies, that also includes the auto insurance companies, because if
these hard-working employees who are working for all insurance companies find out that
these bad people aren't really injured or whatever, they're going to jail. It makes me
sick that those phonies will tend  to bleed all of them dry. There's a lot of
investigations that will have been started by multiple insurance companies, and one of
them is either Nationwide, Allstate, and/or others. We've got insurance fraudulent
investigations, embezzlement investigations, the works. What I don't like about these
people, trying to have gypped these insurance agents and its companies out of their
hard-earned money is when they became scam artists. And unless these so-called "victims"
prove that they're injured in auto accidents   or whatever, then they don't have cases
pending. Now I know why I never want to defraud all of the insurance companies out of
their money, because I'm not like one of these scam artists. So if these people are
planning on gypping these hard workers who work for multiple insurance companies out of
their hard-earned money, well they've got another coming. So my suggestion for these
would-be scam artists better be honest with all insurance companies because if they're
planning on taking their money from these hard-workers and their companies, they're going
to prison for fraud and theft. This type of fraud has got to stop.

B.R.E.A.K.(Bad Relationship Enters a Koma) Part 2

Until I had a nightmare and things got vile

It was you running from me on our wedding day

I yelled out baby please come back this way

For weeks that scene bothered me

Then my trust for you started living in poverty

I'll never forget that faceless man whose arms you ran to

Richard said I want her, Chris said I'm through

I had to figure out a way to not get hurt

Because behind my back I felt you being a jerk

You'd ask me about coming around

But I hated seeing your family memebers frown

Something told me to quit acting like a clown

Or this relationship will plunge to the ground

The gut feelings I was getting stopped me from wanting to eat

It was a sign I needed stomach room to digest defeat

He got his cake, my girl, your dates, ya'll hearts, and sex

I don't know what I'd do if you got his last name next

Your love I crave

Or my heart gets a grave

I'm on thin ice with you I see it in your face

Shall I fall through, it'll be a cold case

Now we must rebond, our relationship rectified

Together you and I must strategize

Multiple times I apologize

You see the sincerity in my eyes

Take care of your business then come back home

With me is where you belong

There will be signs under your nose 

Of me about to propose

And then we see just how far our love goes

There is a reasonable explanation

Of our love taking a vacation

Coming back to me soon is a strong contemplation

Infinite infactuation

With this situation

No longer your mind has investigations

We evolve around each other like circumnavigation

We migrated from friendship our destiny's manifestation

A flower you completed fertilization and pollination

On a love cruise we ride to an unknown destination

You are my mother 

I am your brother

You are my sister 

Love off the scale of Richter

Death to the attitude

Baby

Love longer than longitude
