Best Tyranny Poems

Some say mankind’s a blight upon the Earth
That left alone would be a paradise
But sucks its blood and lays on it a curse
Destined to burn or freeze in waste of ice
 
Cassandra voices preach in latter days
To craven souls, increasing sad despair
In strange alliance then...

Voices no longer talk but yell.
Angry legions, carrying banners
along burning streets,
have infiltrated the Temple quiet
with the unholy noise of hell. 
Rage has been elevated 
to the status of virtue, 
division into a hymn.

Soon, fiery eyed militia,
banging their drums, 
will be knocking on your door 
to...

Sky says goodbye and begins the ritual. The swirl of yellow moons arise....

A country in turmoil
An imposter sits on the throne
From the moment he takes office
Stripping our rights away like a banana
Leaving us slipping on the peels
Trying to figure out what the Hell to do.

Workers vanish from the crop fields,
who will harvest the produce?
Pulled from WHO and...

Blood of martyrs dried in the plains
Died in the Valley Mountains
Fighting for independence

Injustices felt when migration arise
In the island of pearls
And in the land of promise

People were put in chaos
When their land grabbed out of laws
Immigrants view as dominant foes

Once an oasis of freedom
Is now...

The Evil Hands of Tyranny

See “The Evil Hands of Tyranny” gripping coils and springs,
As they crush the throats and lives of all innocent people
Who cry for fairness and justice—but get only a deaf ear. 

Dealing cards falsely makes a laughing stock of us all,
While we...

With tyranny appreciated and coercion praised
The noble and gentle are bewildered and dazed

Today the world is simply disenchanted
     Tomorrow there will be many fingers raised...

Prowling predator in a starless night.
No one knew when it began.
Have we forgotten all the lies about Vietnam,
the predatory newspeak from Pentagon deception?

Prowling predator in a starless night.
Do we recall a lying president dispensing
cocaine jingoism, driving the war in Iraq,
codifying the surveillance state 
complete with...

Gun ownership is a means of protection against government tyranny.
Lose our 2nd Amendment and kiss goodbye all of our civil liberties.

"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bare arms is as a last resort to protect themselves against tyranny...

DON'T GIVE US BUSH OR CLINTON,

GIVE US LIBERTY, NOT TYRANNY!

FROM THE CRIES OF CITIZENS OF THIS REPUBLIC,

GIVE US LIBERTY OR GIVE US DEATH!

WHAT HAVE ALL OF OUR WARS MEANT,

TO A PROUD COUNTRY NOW IN DEBT?

GIVE US ABUNDANCE, NOT TYRANNY!

LET OUR FREEDOM TRULY RING UPON A...

The majority of human beings
on this planet are like sheep
those who suffer the Ram.

Our Shame, 

"PRESIDENT" & "LEADERS" 

Full grown men,
old,
devoid of vision,
Lacking in wisdom, 
wicked weaklings 
protected by paltry paid gun men 
great grandfathers, 
unwilling to train Younger Leaders.
Untrained themselves in morals & reputation,
Liars,  
Tired & fickle in frame,
feeble. opaque, lacking imagination,
These exalted clowns,
drawn from rickety...

I have toothpaste because I paid money.
I watch TV for the same reason.
And this money thing is far from funny:
Without it you are as in a prison!

I have polish that I also have bought.
Water, power,...are all obtained for cash!
All existence seems to be by man...

It is the witching hour.
There are no breezes in a windowless house.
There are no shadows in a cave devoid of light.
There are no dreams in a sleepless night.

It is the witching hour.
When our endangered psyche roams.
When we are captured by pernicious spells.
When we are easy...
