There was a time when words were derived,
not slovenly crafted with prefixes.
When drain meant to let the water out.
When cast from window, meant to throw it out.
That was before the arrival of de- words
De-water means to drain, why not just drain the water out?
Defenestration is de- French for, throwing someone or something from a window
Deforestation is chopping down the trees
Decoupling is divorce, or detachment of carriage from engine.
Demystify is to remove the spook.
Departmentalise is to open the gates on open day to the silos.
Depolarise is inclusion .
Depigmentation is to bleach or whiten.
Desensitise is to get over, your touchy self.
Desalinate is to go easy on the salt-shaker.
Detoxify is to flush and cleanse.
Desertification is to water the parched fields.
Dehumanise is the demise of individuality.
Demise is goodbyes.
Come On,
Let's End the De-s
De-End

Than all those whom promote killing
as progress science has said life begins in the womb
shade it which ever way you truly wish
shows an aggressive side which is very heartless
to say the least because i know
how deeply you have insulted me
in every way from having an opinion or sense
plain as ice to be seen on my stand in the protection of life
are you trying overturn my good values
shame on you with such ugly agendas towards others
also very aggressive i find cursing my existence
abort like my view trying to overpower my comment on an article
so sad really focus your energy on your children
not killing other peoples I lost a child
you even try to dehumanise my thought process
that is sick in my book of life long live our children's rights

China & USA
In the shadow of banal news,
Russia and spying on elections,
lurks a threat that can lead to
nuclear war and the long night
drops by drips our mine is being
prepared for a war and hatred
this because two giants are on
collision course as the plates of
the earth are shifting, a political
disaster for the sake of power.
We who do not want a new war
are drawn into fake propaganda
learning to dehumanise a people
a war without winners bar those
hiding in caves underground with
their gold and worthless money
