Leaders Of Tomorrow
Been around the world
seen some strange sights in my time
and looking back
my favourite is a roadway sign
of yellow and black
viewed in the U.S.A.

Failures Colossal
Nine months after October 6, 1973
PM Golda Meir of Israel was history
For an intelligence failure colossal
She became a political fossil…
Fast forward to October 7, 2023

The Gaza’s Stolen ChildhoodEvery forty-five minutes, thirty children vanish—
not into memory, but into blood and rubble.
The soil of Gaza drinks the tears of mothers,
while those in power sip wine behind closed doors.
This is not war.
It is business—
and crime is its most profitable currency.
Why should we entrust justice to those who profit from injustice?
Why should we plead with architects...

Music WritterWritten By:
A. Pseudonym
The Motif was decided to
precede each new verse
The words were written
to inspire a sound
a big bold beautiful
sound
happy enough to smile
melancholy from the frustration
of lacking inspiration
having been blessed with those
who share the interest of completion
and a strong spirt
those music lovers
are willing to collaborate and compose
to complete that full rainbow of
emotion that put's signatures

Bio-BalladeShe was happy to hear that drizzles
had made the pollen more tollerable.
She had been saddened by the large amounts of pollen
that made herr eyes red and caused her
to sneeze. Blowing into her bassoon became
a chore
due to the fact her nose was sore and sneezing
bothered her.
When the rains began she smiled:
she wiped
the dust and pollen off...

When Leadership Forgot Her NameLeadership once stood so tall,
But lost her spine along the hall.
No knocks, no words, just silent calls—
She wiped away the names on walls.
Silence sits—a secret scribe,
Whispers soft, commands prescribe.
No voice to speak, no hand to shake,
Just shadows where the echoes break.
Respect once tried to find her place,
But Ego barred her from the space.
He strode in...

The Letter They Never AnsweredTo those who should have heard my plea—
I write not bitter, but silently.
In shadows where the messages fade,
I found myself in silence laid.
It started with a hopeful thread,
A truth that whispered, softly said,
To stir the waters, call a friend—
But stillness echoed to no end.
No ripples came, no words replied,
Just empty space where trust had died.
“You...

we are individuals are we notnone of heard the same words
for we are individuals are we not?
it is not our hearing that did not hear
it is the interpretive additives we add
for we are humans
living our own life
experiencing what no one else can
for they are not us
and we are not them
none of us saw the same things
for we do not seek...

Penniless, yet rich in spirit
I can also say that, in my heart, I firmly believe... Since my youth, before bedtime, kneeling on my bare knees, I prayed to God. I prayed that way until I reached the age of 50. From that time onwards, I pray a bit different, but it doesn't matter, the essence is the same, and...

Taiwan, My BrotherIn the flowing scroll of time, said Confucius, blood remembers where it came from. The mountain does not forget the stone, nor does the sea deny its river. You, Taiwan—jade carved from the same dragon—why drift like a petal in foreign wind?
Does not the moon rise over both your skies? Do not ancestors whisper from...

The Song That you can Never SingThere are songs that you will never sing
There are lips that will never speak
There are voices that you will never hear
And there are some hearts that you cannot move
For the world don’t know the rhythm
Stay on the path that you are on and destiny
Will compose a new song
The rhythm is bellowing in my ear
But...

Silent One in the SkiesThe morning is walking in its own pride
And courage is leaning by my side
The sun is rising up from the east
and fire is burning in the belly of the beast
Morning is shining all over the place
And the evening sun is melting their faces
Strange things are happening in town
And the multitude is moving around
With bags...

‘Por favor’ means ‘for a favor’
‘cos that’s what ‘please’ is about
A pleasant way to request one’s desire ~
unlike ‘our leaders’ who scream and who shout
