Both Alahsar and Salahmar in the same space,
One would find Victory, the other, leave this place,

Under the Arc de Triomphe
Marching along Champs Élysées,
In the Liberation of Paris;
When a short while ago
German soldiers' goosesteps
Thumped on the avenues,
Filling Parisian hearts with...

another Black Friday inks history

it ripped it from their astonished eyes 

Then lights turned off on a Tower

Linger in the outer stratospheres of air.

Pure sources of energy.

Songs of Louis
Capart
-by Bob Atkinson

simple phrases
satisfy

although messages
pass me by

deep within the
voice of sentiment

moves a heart toward
contentment


driving again down a
road

ample farms of crops
unknown

to Dijon up from
Paris

could have been just
any place


City of Light still
inspires

six story limit

I was soaking wet 
and now I am dry
All the moisture is gone, 
sucked up from the ground.
Reversing rain, 
it makes no sound.

The flowers cry,
tears joining...

This beautiful breathtaking city is not near the sea
It is in the sea
Like Venice it has sublime majesty
With water channels stretching for infinity

But with one difference while in Venice people travel by boat

Troubled teenagers question their fate,
expecting love, unprepared for hate.
Armored in lies, defending the truth,
a warrior lives in every youth.

insipid badges, oft crude and stark.
When trust morphs into panic and fear,
