have I enough?
Adding up the cause,
Because the cost, is gathering
Sum bodies hungry
Justice and cause
Lucrative
Makings of large sums of money
Yet! improvised lacking to show subtenant sustenance
Plenty of no food, nor drink other elements
Though I need to live and survive, even without seeds?
have I enough?

I roam into a tunnel of ebon night
when stars crumble like grated ash,
the remnants of a heavy day fills
a bleak alley with rubble and debris--
Somehow, the howl of life grows
ghastly, creepy : stray dogs lapping piles
of left-over food in a garbage thick
with ravaged bones, while breezes
laugh at my emptiness mocking
time’s losses and farewells...I bleed
upon the fangs of anguish defying
this phantom within me that lurks, hollers
loud as I slip into the void
of endless black : my lungs cry,
while my knees tumble
on rough cement: and an old man
strums haunted notes from his stale corner…
an overture to a raw, insolent flight.
-On the pedestrian island on intersection of, Papilion.Parkway.On the corner of the street. For days, for weeks, so many months lies a full Ice cream cone, unbroken, untouched, and there's a white lava dried out puddle. The Vanilla Ice cream still yet white and coloring has not dissipated. Doesn't didn't disintegrate no evaporate ? Ice cream cone must have came from across the street from "Mcdonald's" where they sell real food?????.

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2020©
Another day, no food
Another night, no sleep
Cords, tubes, needles and beeps
The negligent hospital controls,
The outcome of health
The outcome of life or death
Suddenly, my life feels no longer my own
Doctor's lectures, doctor's decisions
Wanting answers, stories changing
The mind screams to be heard
Who do you think you are?
Runs through the mind
Over and over and over again
Trapped without a choice
Alone with vital signs dropping
What if I don't make it?
What if this is it? And Here!
While stuck looking at dropped ceilings
Gray walls, with a round clock ticking
The minutes and hours away
Still no help, pleas for help go unanswered
Pain rages on, as time ticks away
---Another Day---

What are you doing?
Don't do that!
Don't give it money
It lives on the street.
I hate to see these no-hopers
No shoes on their feet!
It's puts me off my coffee and my tasty sweet!
They make me feel uncomfortable when they don't even have food to eat!
I bet his story is so pathetic, so young but giving up on life?
Well NO not really, he's just lost his wife!
Well NO not really, his friends are all dead!
Well NO not really, he's limping badly because he got shot in the leg!
WELL NO NOT REALLY, HE'S FOUGHT IN A WAR!!!!
Come home to be cast out because he's different from before!
He risked his life trying to fight for your freedom and rights while you sat on your backside!
You owe him your tasty little sweet, your coffee and so much more beside!
Damn mites
Not laser power or starships
Insects a few millimetres wide
We can't survive them
They sit out there in the skies
Watching us slowly dying
They won't even come down and fight
We face this doom of complete starvation
Insects, trillions and trillions came one night
Now no food can be eaten
No water is left that we can use to survive
Our lives are now forsaken
Damn alien mites
Humanity has been sacrificed
Iron skies wait to take their prize
Damn alien mites.
Pain, what is pain?
You speak of it, you know it's name
You bawl and wail, water falls from your eyes?
So many more of you
So many yet so few, the animals we left here too
There life means nothing to you
You hunt and feed on all your beasts
Predator of flesh, blood and bone
You find your ways to use what you don't own
Now hunted you are, now meat, now bones
Your place at the table; taken by your foes
Though alien we may be, this was once our home
Now mankind is not free
Because it's been overthrown
We enjoy raw meat and now you I own
Because to us you are meat, because to us you are bones
