Damsel In Distress

Heartbroken lass bereft of eminent beau
papa doth vicariously experience her
(mine daughter's) grievous woe.

Unfair a budding promising relationship nought
going to incorporate wedded bliss,
when for all the world
the strong humble lad
absconded to Puerto Rican his homeland.

Thus pained University
of Pennsylvania alumna
("star student") since grade one
at Belmont Hills Elementary
whose high school alma mater
i.e. Harriton High School,
now glum Oakland California transplant.

I (biological father),
who helped beget offspring
writhes with agony,
cuz he and the missus
sowed wild oats
during prime time,
when irresistible call of the wild
overtook wisdom to shuck contraceptive
yielding the miracle of life.

Parenthood never ended
just because declaration of independence
and autonomy witnessed natural propensity
for progeny to reliant become on self
forced shoulder living expense
no only for herself,
but deux darling
tortoiseshell dappled

five month old kittens
most certainly a constant reminder,
when she and he "two peas in a pod"
shared so many college campus memories,
whereby appearances hinted
and predicted a shared destiny
between two love birds.

An abrupt cleavage
rent asunder never witnessing
mutual graceful dotage
figuratively saddled once ebullient psyche
unnecessarily bogged our engineering minded lady
with cumbersome equipage
after they spent precious
young adulthood years together

emulating how married couple live, I gauge
such scenario, cuz talk of wedding bells
filled the (telephonic) airwaves,
whereby yours truly feeling blessed
potential prodigal son in law
his earning hand over fist big bucks
employed at Silicon Valley company
geared toward marketing fitness application.

Unsure how said high achiever
bolstered with you go girl refrain,
(who ofttimes communicated with Zayda,
i.e. his demise a crushing sorrow),
which inevitable prolonged decline

sundered special rapport
since more'n threescore
Earth orbits around the sun
papa acquired mechanical engineer degree
working within Aerospace Division
at General Electric.

Impossible mission not to care
despite mein kampf punctuated
with mine wanderlust flair
marital covenant garden variety
wordsmith did greatly impair
triggering hostility within mine humble lair
adulterer letter forcibly donned as outerwear.


Premium Member Chronicles of the Pied Piper of Mar-A-Lago

I'm not sure how it all began, 
When this soothsayer became heroic to some.
As he molded a story of greatness,
Against what our nation has now become.

Those that listened were mesmerized by his fable,
As he wove a tale of conspiracy and doubt.
Then his minions spread the veil of shadows,
To every corner with whispers they could shout.

Almost miraculously, this mirage became a leader,
Beginning a reign that some wish to forget.
But his actions won't be lost to history,
Since the aftermath lives on to regret.

Early on in his term of division, the
Tactics would erode basic trusts once held high.
Such that... we are a nation made up almost entirely of
Non-natives, yet that must stop, & he'll build a wall with lies.

Soon after, attacks were focused on the media,
As 'fake news' ran rampant in the press.
While the mouthpieces, such as, Hannity and Tucker,
Provided his message to the ignorant, more or less.

It wasn't long before this infection on credibility,
Attacked our very own intelligence community next.
Because ol' 45 would disparage the CIA & others,
Preferring Kim Jong and Putin's rhetoric and text.

Now to be fair, he did accomplish something...
A huge tax-cut that the wealthy endorsed.
So while the rich got richer, the melody sang loudly,
While the poverty of others was reinforced.

Throughout this one-term the primary focus,
Seemed to be undoing everything his predecessor had done.
Now while most of these efforts were negated,
The passionate pursuit gave himself, so much fun.

The ongoing hatred towards Obama and Hilary,
Was a constant theme in the Trump-laden White House.
Lending fuel to the fire of partisan politics, while
Staff and contemporaries posed quietly as a mouse.

The end of this pathetic term was filled with failure,
As dual impeachments and the lost election were to blame.
Followed by legal matters that consumed a nation,
As proud followers were jailed in his name.

Yet the MAGA minority spread far & wide to the horizon,
Where vocal women shamelessly sought his favor to gain.
So between Marjorie, Lauren, and Kari...
Their BDE chorus was tuned to deny any pain.

While conducting this orchestra of disaster,
A nation held hostage, sought truth in the wake.
To the point where regardless of convictions or pardons,
Our Constitution and democracy, will not be proven fake.

Spiritual Strategies For Trump Times

We're in the midst of trump times and 
We need to understand 
That that individual in the White House 
Is not a righteous man 
He's all about division, discord 
And disarray 
And when a domestic terror act occurred 
He did not have much to say 
White nationalists staged a rally to keep 
A confederate statue in place 
No regard and no respect for any other 
Ethnicity nor any other race 
A group of anti- protesters were in a
Peaceful march as well 
Until a nationalist in a car mowed them down 
Causing utter hell

We're in trump times the country's 
Moral barometer has done a reverse 
We're in trump times trust and believe
It can only get worse
Threats against the North Koreans 
Who are launching potential weapons to kill
Instead of using diplomacy 
Trump wants to assert his will
On the precipice of what could 
Possibly become world war 3 
What should we do?
What are our spiritual strategies? 

One, we would do well to accept
The invitation from Christ our Savior
To worship, witness and walk
With a Christlike behavior
We need God to remind us
That we are not alone
And never ever forget that its He
Who sits on the throne 
God is in charge He's still in control
Hopefully He'll work on presidents
Trump and Kim Jong Un souls 

Two, we need gather together in 
Remembrance of He
Jesus the Christ who died
To give us the victory
To eat of the bread and drink of the wine
Remnants of His body and blood 
To examine our own hearts
And acknowledge His unconditional love
To stay in touch with reality 
To remember our past and our pain
Of the slavery that is still on American
A badge of shame

Let us never forget 
what has come to pass
Let us never forget Jesus 
and the love for us He has
For when we remember we reestablish 
All truths and how they came to be
And no tweet will erase nor change
The true reality 

Trump talks about fake news
But free press will prevail 
As only free press stops a nation from 
Becoming a dictatorship from hell

Spiritual strategies for trump times 
We need to realize 
We need to stay united
And keep our eyes on the prize 
Let us never forget the blood 
That was shredded and the sacrifice
Let us never forget that for our sins
Jesus gave His life
Let us look past skin color
And ignore race 
Let us remember God 
Who gave us His infinite 
Mercy and Grace

Premium Member Woman In Chains

she carries the child on tired hips rested on chains ‘round her waist

wasted on freedom designed to serve a white man’s lustful desire

branded inferior as time repeats itself and the pain knows no end


a tattoo on her skin confirms her as chattel in self-righteous shackles 

festering wounds of Apartheid resemble the foul stench of humanity

as her child suckles from an empty breast and cries out for more


they did not really abandon slavery merely gave it a different name

too sweet are the rewards of exploiting the world as we know it

division of labour and they enshrined her firmly as an illiterate pawn


her soul wrapped in skin and bones and her eyes like rusted steel

an empty gaze almost gave up on merits of justice from hollow eyes

camped in concentration of power domination she is raped daily


of her dignity while she ploughs on in fields of plenty and the dust

of history and yet she never gives up on struggle for emancipation

some got the vote in a rigged system with dice slicing the fortune


disembowled by wolves in capital’s fangs her innermost treasure

has become hope that succumbs to memories of her forebears

born into poverty and meant to stay there she rattles her manacles


in vain in defeat because leg irons and handcuffs are made from

diamonds and gold in the heartland of theft and misappropriation

when her child dies she carries another from the master’s loins


expendable and forgotten her tears are salty and polish the gyves 

and just maybe might help to corrode bilboes and unholy bonds

because human emotions do not forget who triggered the hurt


outcast in a so called homelands or locations she requires a pass

to enter the kingdom of opulence in which she serves as a maid

but the young maiden has become old and dies cleaning their dirt


a stolen life is all that her daughters will remember with hatred

and when they rise they too will die by the greed of their captors

but one day the tables will turn and revolve in anger and retribution



20th August 2020


‘Apartheid’ in South Africa was the system of racial discrimination

Workers needed a ‘passbook’ to enter rich suburbs for work

‘Homelands’ were the allocated regions where black people would live

Their abodes where called ‘locations’ to sweeten the tongue of evil

Tales of the Lone Wanderer 2

Found the G.E.C.K and a genius super mutant named Fawkes
It's the lone wanderer, were their truly any doubts
On his way back, the enclave stun him cold
It's the lone wanderer, they must truly be bold
He wakes up to the face of the man that murdered his father and his dream
The lone wanders promises to severe the head from this fiend
They made a mistake and set him free
He lets off some steam and goes on a killing spree

Hoping to find the fiend, instead he finds a computer
It claimed to be president Eden, the leader of the future
The lone wanderer couldn't believe the stupidity
It gave him the F.E.V virus and claimed it was the best for humanity
The lone wanderer then remembers he found a self-destruct code
He told president Eden he was a whole
Laughing while he activates It's self-destruct mode

Running and gunning to his P.I.P boy radio
Listening to 'Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy' to fit the scenario
Turning Enclave soldiers into mashed potatoes 
By the time he escaped the count down hit zero,
The lone wanderer stood in the background looking like a hero
Reunited with the genius super mutant Fawkes
They now have matching toys to take back to the house

Deciding to stick together for a noble cause,
They return to the Citadel after unloading a few hundred shots
The Brother Hood Of Steel commended them and gave them a round of applause
Time now to suit up and release a giant robot
'Now we take back the purifier!', Cried Sarah Lyons
'Take everything you can because only Enclave shall be dying'
The lone wanderer refuses their power armor and instead pulls out his Gatling gun
Him and Fawkes bump guns and are already for some fun
They rush through the gate behind the giant robot shooting a vertibird out of the sky
Running through the carnage seeing Talon mercs pass by

Barging through the front door of Jefferson's memorial
Spraying Enclave soldiers in a effortless tutorial
Beams from vengeance making clean incisions
Rapid is its fire with precise precision
Even if the lone wanderer had no vision
Fawkes and him could easily wipe out colonel Autumn's entire division
Now approaches colonel Autumn's final hour,
Without hesitation the lone wanderer  draws his sword with power
Striking colonel Autumn dead and sour
Before his head rolls into the water,
The lone wanderer convinces Fawkes to play a little soccer

Top Ten Children Poems

A Hint at What Is Beautiful : 
Lovely is the 'bless your heart' 
Wrapped with appreciation, 
Offered to peace inclined individuals 
Who make a special effort 
To nurture shrapnel singed casualties 
In the midst of napalm sedated air, 
Conveying their humankind, unobtrusively 
Also, unassumingly, in our 
Blood recolored, avarice unhealthy, 
Detest eaten world. 
Lovely is the occasion, 
At the point when the heart apathetic 
To euphoria or distress, just trusts 
Whatever this life brings 
In any case, discovers time to simply be. 
By Yoonoos Peerbocus 
A Crazed Girl : 
THAT crazed young lady ad libbing her music. 
Her verse, moving upon the shore, 
Her spirit in division from itself 
Climbing, falling She knew not where, 
Stowing away in the midst of the load of a steamship, 
Her knee-top broken, that young lady I pronounce 
A delightful grand thing, or a thing 
Nobly lost, chivalrously found. 
Regardless of what debacle happened 
She remained in edgy music wound, 
Wound, injury, and she made in her triumph 
Where the bunches and the bins lay 
No regular comprehensible sound 
Be that as it may, sang, 'O ocean starved, hungry ocean.' 
By William Butler Yeats 
A Baby View of Abortion : 
I came as tomorrow 
Swaddled in guiltlessness 
To your warm womb 
Mother… … 
Without your decision 
Or on the other hand mine 
Bound to up date 
With time 
Our human tree 
Be that as it may, before adoration 
Developed into fragile living creature and words 
What is incomplete creation- 
A precipitation of blood 
Turned into my greatness. 
By Yoonoos Peerbocus 
A Ballad of Heaven : 
He created at one extraordinary work for quite a long time ; 
The world go by with elevated look; 
Some of the time his eyes were dashed with tears ; 
In some cases his lips with giggling shook. 
His significant other and youngster went dressed in clothes, 
Also, in a blustery garret starved ; 
He trod his measure on the banners, 
Also, high on paradise his music cut. 
Contemplative he became yet never dreaded ; 
For dependably on the midnight skies 
His rich symphonic score showed up 
In stars and zones and universes. 
He thought to duplicate down his score ; 
The moonlight was his light; he stated, 
'Listen my adoration,' however on the floor 
His better half and tyke were lying dead.

Premium Member Our World Changing, Not For the Better - Potd

It's not hard to see or tell this world of ours 
Isn't the same as it used to be. Granted, it has 
Never been perfect, but I've seen better days
I've become numb to a cavalcade of bad news
That saturate the television, social media
The radio, the newspapers. 

I see our world changing with my own eyes 
Every day, and not for the better. Sometimes I feel 
As if I'm dreaming, but it's not a dream. It's reality
It's like I went to sleep one fine day, and woke up 
To a world gone mad. A world, like crumbs 
Falling off bread being sliced

What happened to the state of civility? What happened 
To the nature of our social fabric? What is happening 
To our country? 

I'm so sick of Liar-In-Chief Donald Trump spewing 
Hundreds of lies every day, further breaking 
His unbreakable record of falsehoods. But why stop there? 
Since his presidency, racism, xenophobia
Fear-mongering, corruption, foreign and domestic 
Terrorism all surged exponentially

Under his watch, police brutality is at an all-time high
What is the world coming to when our "President" 
Sides with foreign cold-blooded dictators
Over America's intelligence agencies?
What is wrong with that picture? This nation, this world 
We're living in just isn't the same as it used to be

More and more African-Americans are ending up 
Dead at the hands of trigger-happy police officers
More and more celebrities are falling from grace
Many emerging as sexual predators since 
The inception of the "MeToo Movement" 
Oh, and let's not forget about the Catholic priests!

The never-ending wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
Continue to claim the lives of American soldiers
Needlessly. When will our heroes finally come home?
What happened to the political climate? 
It has grown so toxic. Washington politicians 
Are failing to do the job the American people 
Elected them to do. 

The GOP has become the party of Trump
A so-called leader who stays up all night 
Tweeting more nonsensical lies, who continually fan 
The flames of division, continually assault 
Freedom of the press, calling a legitimate investigation 
Of Russia's meddling in America's election process 
A "Hoax" and "Witch Hunt." But we all know better, don't we?

I wish I could go back to sleep and wake up 
To the way the world used to be...


Poem Of The Day on 12/03/2018

Bottle Dance

BOTTLE DANCE

Across my land, abysses gnaw at automobiles,
From the foot of the mountain, 
To the shores of the oil fountain.
Certificated youths drinking piss to mellow their brains,
Clutching at wheels, dodging bumps into fog lights.
“Stupid, ing dog” curse survivors of amputation “you bastard” 
“Who cares, you swine” retorts I the offender 
just before crashing into the next one.
In my shack, counting my yields and sighing, 
evading the burning eyes of hungry breeds.

How did I ever get here?

In the ring stood I, surrounded by Foncha, Endeley, Jua and Ntumazah
Um Nyobe sang the UPC song and they danced. 
They danced the bottle dance.
Sandwiching in the center, on the slaughter slab, my motherland.
Nigeria to the left, La Republique to the right, 
Trampling upon outright independence.
Foncha  danced and Endeley danced and Nyobe sang and Britain watched. 
The tune was clear, the rhythm was jazzed but the lyrics were blur;
Whence had a nation’s independence, 
Been conditioned upon attachment to already independent states?

So how did we ever get here?

A loaf of bread baked in the flames of WWI
And served into the plates of Imperial barons of foreign insanity
Too blind to the tongues of oneness.
Drawing a line far far away in the halls of mirror 
That tore grandmother’s breasts apart.
The story of the Ewes of Togoland 
Was being whispered in her land while she slept.
A line dragged across the highlands of the Adamawa and drained into the Atlantic,
Sullied the virginity and orthography of kamerun.
Grooming a set of dysfunctional twins through years of alien doctrines, 
Only to be reunited in an unholy matrimony called Cameroon or Cameroun.
Testaments of tongues foreign like those on a devil’s Pentecost,
That sowed seeds of immortal division.

So this is how really I got here!

A son deprived of the warmth of a Mother
Drained of her milk,
Tapped and shipped offshore. 
Scorned and oppressed by a brother,
His name slowing fading away from the sands of time.
And now, the land of bottle dancers clamour for a new dance:
For I know how we got here and I too want to dance; 
Federation to the left, secession to the right,
Trampling upon the pseudo 1972 re-unification.
The blood of the brave pipe the tunes 
And rhythms of gunshots meet hallelujah,
Sang in a coffin.

Premium Member Caravan of Courtship

Sire she's been sighted
two miles south of Sinai,
our sentinels say she has brought a river,
her baggage train stretches into the ancient sands,
the envoys of her retinue spoke of marvelous gifts,
beasts and creatures of the Orient
gems that glitter like the eyes of children
summer baskets of gold bullion
and satchels of spice from Siam,
our men said they could smell the barrels of balsam Sire...
To travel with such unmistakable wealth
the Queen must have brought a war machine along,
have desert brigands been spotted near the route...
No my King, no raider encampments have been observed,
just the regular rabble and agape villagers,
it's been confirmed that her associates
are passing to the people pouches of cinnamon...
I don't trust the Egyptians, 
they may try to incite the Bedouins to foolhardy thievery, 
our Nation's honor demands
that not even the dust of the devil's danger
deign to dry upon the clothes of her most distant servants, 
if the House of Zion can secure a partnership
with the trading powerhouse of Sheba
our supremacy over the Babylonians will be indomitable...
I pledge my life, and that of my family's
to her caravan's safety Sire...
So mote it be General,
your loyalty is my blessing, 
may it be as strong as the staff of Moses,
dispatch 333 of the Lion's Legion
to reinforce the Queen's guard
and send a circuit of 15 water wagons...

What does a Queen dream of
in the calm desert nights...
I dream of roses melting
into snake bitten hearts,
I've dreamt of citadels broken
by the grips of greed,
I've seen a child walking out of a tomb,
what does a King dream of
in the shadow of paradise...
I dream of thorned stars,
the division of labor and wages,
of priests and Judges
whom wish to rule quietly without blame...

Do you know what thrilled me the most
about the Court reception...
Tell me, my cinnamon Queen...
The seduction of your Servants' silence
as I entered your meticulous throne room...
I understood their awe,
you moved so gracefully, 
your body like an ancient lust
your face a flame of royalty...
I think I fell in love with your eyes,
there is something rough about you Solomon,
but your eyes and lips
relay a sweet mercy to me...
Mercy is never free Veronica...
I will pay the price...
We will pay the love cost together...

Premium Member Good News

Song by George Jones

There is some Good News
Not to find in the news
Which loves to create division and hate
Just out to get the most ratings
All can see this world is falling fast
But we love to broadcast it
To leave one in no hope
But the good news is
This should seek one to seek for better
 Not to want to belong unto it
This world is run by the evil one
To see all the division even in churches
What happened to one spirit
Which Jesus sent to dwell within
This should bring unity
Spirit joins one with another spirit
Sees no color or religion 
I glance at all the different churches 
Only God can pull one out of it
To reveal how corrupt mankind is
Thankfully God showed me 
That my path was leading to death
I shall judge none because God saved me
And I have seen all have this hope within
It's the unseen spirits that are deceiving 
We all have to get to a point 
To say there must be something better
It's now like watching Satan running rampant
Knowing his time is short 
Trying to deceive as many to drag it out
There is great news for the ones that
Are seeking better which are tired
Of all the chaos , depression, seeing hatred
Not fitting in with this world
Which is a great thing 
We don't want to follow mankind
But through calling upon Christ
Bring division within oneself
To place the old self in the grave
No matter what this world tells one
They have no judge over the soul
Jesus came to die for sinners
To bury that old lifestyle to give a fresh start
No longer seeking to belong to this world
But seeking to be pulled out of it
Jesus said the tax collectors and prostitutes
Would enter His kingdom
For they come to an end hopefully
To see their own path is not good 
Before the self righteous
Which claims to appear good only to man
While the inside is full of corruption
God sees all my friends
Either His spirit from Christ reigns within
Or the spirit of this world evil one
I love you all and will be here
To encourage all and give support
In this battle of the unseen that's taking place 
Would be great if one could see
It's within us that needs to be destroyed
So Jesus prayer of May your kingdom
Come on earth as in heaven, this takes
The spirit of Christ available to dwell within 
Jesus loves you all and is waiting
Patiently for that one which seeks
