Lawed Poems | Examples


Premium Member LIFE

Living in the world today, we're faced with drama and frustration
It has become brother against brother and nation against nation
Flawed governments, people who are greedy for fame and power
Each guilty of tainting life, toxic like acid rain in a summer shower

Premium Member Can Mankind Survive Mankind

as children we watched the sky wind clouds
from amongst trees or sandy beech crowds
we played in the water and had fun with reflections
picturing lions tigers and bears as with our cloud assumptions

until isaac newton no one understood the nature of light 
water reflections and cloud images were mysteries in actual sight
ancients pictured these visual echoes in rivers of water or air as proof 
revealing what exists above is but thought to what lies beneath

high ideals of mind grasped a system of logic that appeared as lawed
from above the cloud image reflections of those looking down called the gods
heaven was thought as wisdom above so below was pain ignorance and death
and we slowly evolving fractal biological thought forms knot and pain the earth

typically problems grow till out of control and we finally summon all our forces
to first protect corporations with legal 'personhoods' not our people sources
of families labor and taxes without guaranteed government health care fallback
just an 'us against them' two party political system with hollywood at its back

Problems

solve em.dissolve em.we walled em off and called em
the f.b.i. done cleared my eye
and the floor be done be crawled em
lawed em,in 54
saw em,when we wore
baldin,and the moores
taller than they were
shot em
to a store
