Long Denounces Poems

[This poem 'No God Of  Mine' was seemingly confounding readers as

What if I ,
Saw a waist-coated white rabbit,
Pass and disappear down a hole
Would I think I was going quite mad

The price we pay 
For these countries of ours
Battlefield loss
Coffined towers
 
Daughters and sons
Gunned down

To fight each other, my thoughts bland
Muslim, Sunni or Shiite Bro's
Severe grudge,...

I'm found in the black of existence
black bushy hair, black the color of my skin.
Beautified to this black at birth
I rise this black to the height of colors ,
I rise this black...

indefinable spaces between the words in a conversation
warm with feelings found in romance or those realms & aspects of

Human- what is it? 
Ask a biologist and he’ll tell you.
A lump of flesh maybe, some bones.
A mesh of veins, arteries and blood. 
Ask a poet and she’ll tell you.
Human is so unique, so beautiful.

Stone stubborn, strictly stuck until struck.
Then mined like gushing gold, loquacious litter.
From hills and dales, from stillness and storm,

of my eyes as sorrow
to fall down my cheeks 
in grief kissing my lips 
with misery in 
silence to fall from my chin 
as despair finally into

But so piercing are their look
They maybe dark as the deep sea

today
into my being
I want to love
this hour
into fullness
I want to write
this moment

let me love
let me write

with responsibilities
with agendas and appointments
with guilt ridden reminders
of what I must do...

Stands, four players. 
Quarrels of foul cries, collided.
Facing each nemesis into quadrants, divided. 

Individuals motivated by objectives.
Devising plans, careful detectives. 
Goal to achieve the highest rank, careful steps--discriminate.
Going by the hit-list, tunnel vision, hindrances...

Still he shows...

Delves deeper into dangerous detrimental delirium 
Devious diseased disability discriminates

A choreographed dance of heart and deed
fulfills the spirit that denounces greed.

Why, now, should there still be hunger

Silos sleep, filled to the brim with grain
