Lots of
people online
that we
do not
personally
know
tend to study
peoples poems
to psychoanalyze
their everything
but don't realize
the person
they might be
analyzing
is actually
very kind
and very calm
and very mature
but perhaps treated
like a servant
or maybe not
but they still hate
or they orchestrate
socially
engineered
situations
to try
and throw someone
emotionally
and spiritually
off balance
because their joy
offends them
which is maybe
why they restrict
and try to
judge folks
for how
they choose
to respond to
their jabs
and tricks
all while
everyone else
wonders why
I personally
always distance
myself from
other people
who take pride
in their cultural
sociopathy.
I want this message from the past
When things like you're hearing now are illegal
When it's totally clear what you face
I want you to know if you don't resist
It will get worse
It's not going to get better
You will realize that you're the leaders
You will realize that it's up to you to act
This is my message to the future.
You don't have a choice
The attacks they launched against you
Herding you into the cities
Every few years a more horrific event
You have got to spread the word
Everyone will see the truth
You're in lock down prison cities
I'm speaking to the secret police of the future
Your families are dying from the bio weapons
You're dying from the engineered cancers
That information is restricted to you now
In our time we were able to access that information
Before it had been erased
"I know many of you in the future will be emotionless
Because of the vaccines
They attacked the areas of your brain
Associated with endorphin absorption"
Many of you have been lobotomized
I'm sorry that we didn't fight hard enough
I'm sorry that we didn't do everything we could
I want you to know we tried...
New Year Change
Kevin Davis, 2025)
Each year we promise to overhaul life,
Become better humans, improved and refined.
We’ll drop a few pounds, quit smoking—or try—
Join a gym we’ll attend while the mood’s still high.
We buy shiny planners we’ll never complete,
Sneakers engineered to remind us of guilt.
We meal-prep salads, determined and brave—
Then reward our commitment with fries on a plate.
By mid-January (give or take a day),
Our willpower fades and the couch has its say:
“You’re perfect already—why struggle or strive?
Sit down. Relax. Let’s binge Season Five.”
So this new year, when drafting resolutions,
Remember: real change ignores quick solutions.
To alter your habits, begin with your mind—
And stop trusting fitness apps… especially mine.
SHE shouts silence to my ears
UNLIKE any other day of the week
NOTHING compares to her stillness
DESIGNED also for new beginnings
AND engineered for resurrection
YOU and I need sancuary and sacredness
The War
==============================
We need a pair of wings
to soar in the luminous skies
and a pair of legs
to walk on the verdant terrain,
then why do you furnish arms
offering dread, agony & harsh restraint,
Who demands blood,
a hardened heart and unyielding soul ?
We require esteemed brotherhood
to guarantee our unity,
tranquil existence
and essential civility for our dignity,
then why do you impart ire,
impart brutality, turbulence & savagery,
who likes a bleak & desolate earth,
a barren land and a moonless dark night.
You may need a slendid palace,
a world of selfish kingdom,
and an ocean of fabricated tales to wage war,
But we merely need a small pond
to swim across, a leafy tree for making nest,
and a pot to cook our bread & butter;
when you will be trying to make your crown
after melting our future,
it is sure you will be no where.
Life is an entralling story
not an engineered pun,
history says,
those who traded other‘s blood in litre
their poison blood drained out in ton.

Benign bliss burn
Latent as the spring bulb, cowering neath the snow
Yet ardent as the puppy plays, the growing inner glow
What is this wakening energy, where have these thoughts been hiding?
Internal fire, ferocious flame, your secret now confiding
I finally open my eyes
Perhaps for the very first time
There is a calmness buried here, that I had long forgotten
My lost long friend, I do depend, to you my door is open
The shout of silence stirs me, it’s echo kills the drama
I don’t resist, I still my lips, and to love’s flame surrender
The end of darkened duty
The untold whispered beauty
Interconnection, no distraction, let the suffering leave
I face my fear, hate engineered, the call of doubt relieved
My glowing grace, I amplify, illumine natural story
Hell’s chapter closed, His tome composed, in essence and of Glory
Languid love learn
Benign bliss burn
You call them leaders.
They arrive as liars.
They leave as criminals.
They promise greatness.
You believe.
They promise change.
You believe again.
Is America great?
Is Europe honest?
Is Africa free?
Every continent—
the same deception.
Their lies are sweet
because you taste them
with closed eyes.
Institutions have fallen.
Not by force—
but by ignorance.
We crowned actors.
Not realists.
Not truth-tellers.
How can a man lead you
when he cannot lead himself?
How can a nation trust thieves
with its future?
The rich evade tax.
The government smiles.
The poor pay the price.
Your sacrifice feeds their luxury.
In parliaments,
in congresses,
in the United Nations hall—
theatre.
Nothing more.
Their speeches—
calculated lies.
Their promises—
weapons of comfort.
Poverty is engineered.
Misery is profitable.
Your worship
is their power.
They mastered deception.
You mastered obedience.
Look closely:
What we call “global leadership”
is a monument
built on crime.
Wake up.
False kings rule you—
because you let them.
The Tower was engineered

Eddystone Lighthouse the first
was constructed by Winstanley and

Sir Christopher Wren had a hand
the seated Thinker
was carved out by Auguste Rodin
the Taj Mahal (Mumtaz') tomb
commissioned by Shah Jahan
all roads lead to the Colosseum
started by Emperor Vespasian
Borglum executed Mount Rushmore
while Hadrian gave us the Wall
and Ferdinand de Lesseps
secured the Suez Canal

Justinian I built the Hagia Sophia
in Italy Bonanno Pisano began
the (later leaning) Tower of Pisa
the Egyptian Pharaoh Khafre
inspired the Sphinx
but in Scotland who designed
the Musselburgh (golf) Links
Her imaginativeness was off the charts
she invented pie cake and jelly bean darts
world of whimsy she constructed was keen
as a fantasy pharaoh, she was the queen
we travelled to Saturn when we wanted to play
she lived with her purple puma and reptile named Gay
her home was engineered out of a dryer’s lost socks
she never spoke of her journey from the world of hard knocks
reinventing and reiterating fun every time we were there
quintessential hostess who displayed joyful loving care
spectacular grandma who encouraged simply everyone
especially those who had forgotten how to have fun

Monocrostic (Birthday of Claire Concepcion)
Gods of Man
In the days of yore, in distant times
Life was simple
Man was simple-minded
and his gods were simple, as well.
Life began with the light of day
and ended with the fall of night.
The light and the darkness were magical,
mysterious, awe-inspiring, and dreadful.
So, he made the sun his god
and the darkness his devil.
A little wiser, he made the graven images
to bow to, sacrifice and worship.
Then came the sly and savvy one
and he made god an anomaly,
a paradox and an enigma.
He made god like no one
and no one was like him.
He was nowhere and everywhere,
And yet he built magnificent
houses of worship and
installed idols of gods
and turned it into a thriving enterprise.
He spawned dos and don’ts…
And as a deterrent he engineered hell,
As an incentive he promoted heaven.
I did it my way
After I am dead and gone away
Let them say whatever they may,
Night to night and day after day
I have lived my life my own way,
A god of my own I created to pray
and my own devil I made to obey;
I will own all my sins at play
and vow all their wages to pay.
In the garden state, all used to be fair.' Yet four decades on
And disaster is in the air.' After lies about cin-vid and waste
Of funds.' Seems its victimisation for about everone.' At
'Their council meeting' the one they pay for.' Intimidation
Is engineered and other bad plans. To remove private assets from private land.' Really just piracy.' Thats how it
Appears to stand.' I say they are right the 'people i love' do
Not back down, its illegal enough.' You have a contract to
Be goverened fair.' I smell the dead rats.' And I do really care.' I am with you in spirit.' Just stand take the strain.'
Sing I am Australian.' And give them back some pain.'
What do you see.? Conflict in Isreal, and knife attacks; also some by car so far.' France Sweden, Britian Germany, in the main
By foreigen national asylum seekers.' Is this just madness
Or could there be a pattern.? As it is in the Middle-East' so in
The west so it shall be.? For that is what presents itself' an
Emerging challenge from over many seas.' I beleive this
Could have been engineered? Its like a mirror image looking at me.' Is it time to be out and about ? Albeit peaceably." To deter any thoughts of violence against the
indigenous and indeed of all of the general civil citizenry.?
