Murky Mists of Narcissists TrystsVarnished Tech Titans
Tattered totems tarnished
Viral tribal bible spiral
Tainted talismans taunted
Cash cows flaunted
Gerontocracy trumps democracy
Theocracy stumps hypocrisy
Autocracy dumps diplomacy
Haunted schism prism
Vaunted Fat Cats
Enigma?…just
Dogma & Stigma
Tit for Tats

Doff your hats

Deplore or Encore?
Poor Planet in flux
All about the bucks

My InnMy Inn by NoelsArt
Humans are a hotel.
Each day a new check in,
Happy, Sad, Good, or Bad
Welcome to My Inn!
Smiling, “May I help you?”
“Here’s the key to Room 2.”
“Enjoy our breakfast buffet
and enjoy our coffee too.”
Smiling at my frown
Laughing at my sorrow,
“Okay, spend the night”
“But, begone by tomorrow.”
Be grateful to new check ins,
they’ve all been...

OblivionPoem ‘Oblivion’
Drastic times calls forth bold demands,
Not quiet hearts or passive hands.
For change to rise, the roofs and roots must shake,
To build a new, immoral and unethical ways must break.
Sometimes it takes the patience to fall,
To raise up justice, loud and tall.
Opposition paves the path, it’s true,
For something better, bold, and new.
Wrongdoing for too long...

Where were YouWhere were you when I was three, where were you when I was crying out for thee, I lived in the bosom of the sea but no one came and look for me, I learn to fend for myself and when the times get tough, I had to take care of myself and make...

Ruthless HeartRuthless heart running around the street with desires pulling strings in dark corners of night, corrupting the people that they meet and causing commotion in the street. The wet grass is filtering a strange feeling in the atmosphere and my heart began to fear.
It was just yesterday you came this way but you didn’t bother...

It is the spark that no one could see, it is the spark of a higher decree, and...

It’s time to take down Iran
