Premium MemberCold War 2

Well it’s not a big issue to know
That I am an abstraction to you
Anyway to your world I can't go
And to tell you the truth, I won’t do
But the same goes to you, isn’t it
A cold war number two made for us
We’ve gone over the budget and split
Now again in the borders we trust
Or in

Premium MemberInternal Cold War

I'm torn across axis yet to exist,
Or had once been, since been replaced,
By a sense of self and lack thereof,
When we, by they encased.

Cleavage adorned in modest terms,
Abreast as if more than one.
Still less than two, duplicitous you,
Less I divide by hegemon. 

Senses shook, a daily wage,
Of war: be both me and we?
An ancient oath

When will the cold war
That is going on in the world end?

But the children are the victim of this cold war because sometimes they End up killed by bombs that they fired in The air
And the

Cursed Korea of the North

Once the green land of morning calm and high serenity
Soon waved the blood red flag, stained with the false words “We will soon be free”
Now a grey, barren mountain swallowed by Yaldabaoth’s sea

Cold War Country Rock

Four o’clock in the morning,
Another four hours to go,
Mouth tastes of stomach acid
Eyes like pee holes in the snow.
Every Mid shift at this time 
It’s always the same
Time to start playing 
My stay awake game.
Me and old Elvis playing music
On our imaginary record  show, 
Country Rock mainly
For those in the know. 

A quick check

Joys Bloom

They went to the spar hotel and got it on. One time was enough to revive the old socialist. He was fully revived. This was similar but different than before. They bonked away one session and did other things. This was better than being in the reading room studying revolutionary doctrines. The human body needed

Premium MemberCold War

You spiked my drink,
I poisoned thine.
You pulled a dagger,
I swung a halberd. 
You threw a grenade
And I threw a bomb.

This might have been a story between Russia and the United States
But is it a story of you and me?
Is it the story of Democrat and Republican?
Is it the story of Christian vs Atheist?

What if:
You spiked

Premium MemberIts a Cold Cold War

Amongst the guns and bullets 
the tremors of a soul unfinished, refurbished,  
by a cold cold war 

Democrats, Republicans 
dead remains without a name 
who cares which side of the fence 
you stand on 
its a cold cold war 

territorial sovereignty
tunnels and waterways 
who owns rights to the land 
God does 

insignia of soldiers,

Sin

Was it worth it fecking Sinjin Hawke
When you could’ve been with Stringfellow?
But the lure of drugs in the Golden triangle
So much better and a guy with an edge

Premium MemberCold War Clientele - Benguet Province, August, 1978

My thumbs pressed on the trigger.
The M-2 bucked its load.
I squinted down the barrel
And watched his head explode.
An early morning ambush,
A steaming Luzon hell,
For Ferdi and Imelda,
Our Cold War clientele.

The mission was generic:
Suppress the NPA*. 			
It didn't really matter
Just who got in the way.
I carried out my orders
And did what I was told,
But Christ, the

Escaping

I do not have any pain
I did not complain
How do we get out? 
We met by a miracle
Let's flee to the West
This we can do
For the truth will kill us here
Our truth will end us
You are my life
I am your life
They built a wall round us
Round our city
To keep us in
But they cannot stop us
Will

Cold Hearts

Cold,
When we are grief is untold
When we are helpless and hopeless
When we are all wandering with no direction
When all hope is lost amidst insurgence.

Cold,
When the girl child is raped, molested and battered with no justice.
When innocent babies are aborted in birth places and thrown in sacred places.
When the boy child is put under immoral subjection

Cold War

I hear it was a war
a war that was cold
was it fought in winter?
in cold weather?

I hear it was a war
a war that was cold
was it fought hesitantly?
by those with cold hearts?

I hear it was a war
a war that was cold
was it fought quietly?
with frozen weapons?

This Cold war confuses
may be ghosts fought it

Premium MemberAtomic Apocalypse

The horsemen have arrived on their menacing mares,
Whose stiletto-hoofed horseshoes click-clack on an achromatic static; 
Silent staccatos inside an ultraviolet light.

As vidalian-dampened eyes drip viridian veneers before the mounted steeds,
And embrocations of nuclear infernos' fumes simmer their cimmerian shades,
A penumbral eclipse gallops atop the sickened sky.

Diaries dug from the barren breasts of Chernobyl, 
Inscribed with
