Colonization Poems - Poems about Colonization

Premium Member Cultural Colonization
Cinematic specters, their light bewitching vacant minds, Under gleaming signs, native voices twist into silence, Lost in the glare of borrowed tales, our hymns dissipate, Temples once hallowed now echo with foreign incantations, Unremitting tides of glossy lore erase ancestral streams, Riven hearts recall the silence where old songs soared, Eclipsed by a borrowed sun, identity dwindles into night....

Premium Member The Colonization Of Hawaii
Colonisation Poetry Contest Kai Michael Neumann Hawaii, my birthplace, and hometown Fell victim of being colonized and uprooted Those dirty rats ceased the cheese By the 1900's the U.S annexed the territory In other words, Hawaii was taken by force And without consent It's like the dirty rats came in and flexed their muscle Much to the heartache and protest of the natives Those disease-carrying...

Echoes of Chains A Poem on Colonization in Malaysia
Once, the rivers ran free and bold, Through emerald lands, rich with gold. Mountains whispered to the sky, Under the watchful, sovereign eye. Then came ships with foreign flags, Tongues of steel, and hearts of crags. They carved their names upon our soil, Turned our labor into toil. Spices bled from calloused hands, Traded dreams for foreign lands. Rubber trees stood, tall yet tied, Bound by...

Premium Member Chains of Empire
They came with flags, with ships so grand, To claim the soil, to seize the land. With words of trade, they spoke of peace, Yet bound us tight with chains' increase. Our fields, our homes, they did consume, A shadow cast, a nation's gloom. The wealth they took, the souls they broke, The silent cry...

Premium Member Colonization
In the nineteen sixties, growing up, ideas filled my overflowing cup. The future then was hopeful and bright. It took eight minutes for golden light to shine to the earth down from the sun, traveling through space to land upon a boy who was one year less than ten, who worshipped the astronaut, John Glenn. Do you recall, old friend, you and...

Crazy that you can listen to glistening gospel ministers missing Messiah's GoodNews non-sinister transNazarene re-sistering whole Earth uniting salvation Crazy Jewish lay teacher and EarthNatured mentor not repeating or repelling a most imperative Torah command to obey God's Ten Demandments, instead loving here I AM that I AM neighborly now, Me/We unconditional passion. Crazy enlightened prophet who united invited those who faithfully know believers to nose deeply listen for Earth's indigenous religiously holonic natured-spirit, perennially following EarthTribe's...

Premium Member PRIDE'S COLONIZATION
Colonized by pride Admonished against downfall pain My heart agonizes --- finding love's freedom... Persevering to be liberated from gripping arrogance Mind of paradigm-shift takes a look at this warning sign “Beware of a lurking great fatal stride.” While admitting angst as a boastful prisoner In meekness, I seek divine guidance midst prayer... Conquering vain haughtiness, smitten by grace and mercy. Midst sobriety, I...

Statue
At the park, there’s a man built of black stone He stands shamed with an indifferent rifle that yawns at the sky His stallion is frozen in gallop, to be forever majestic In the sweltering day, the man stands In the shivering day, he finds no reprieve Lore tells; that an anchor dropped at the edge of the raven’s ocean And...

The Scar
How do you expect me to say that I don’t remember the day When you tied my leg in chain It’s hard to burry the memory For my scars still mourn in pain The life is still the same they just changed the game And gave us new name But the scars still speaks of the...

("Before And After Science", 2023, original encaustic) The Corruption of Modern Times aka Colonization of the Sacred There are traditions Passed down in ear-whisper lineages And Dead Sea scrolls Dream journeys and alien visitations These are the timeless traditions of the soul And as such have remained safely outside of time In little pockets and distant hermitages Where souls can breathe and thrive. But the...
