The Stranger
My life warps by its beasts of woes
depression dogs my day
at night, stress drains my restless soul
the wrongs have no delay

Myself am I, forsook decreed
hope laid by things...

Under the bridge in Del Rio are stopped, stuck, stationed
Thousands of migrant Haitians, not Ukrainians
Frankly, if they were the latter, they wouldn’t be sanctioned
Detained, abased, mistreated and deported like Haitians
Like herds of cattle to detention...

It is the magic held within the darkness, the whispering of the night winds,
Echoing through haunted graveyards, cast are thus ancient spells, illuminated
Beneath the harvest full moon, in this eerie landscape the underworld is 
Released,...

In a dismal old fashioned cell at our ancestral home,
Wherein coconuts, new and old, heaped like a hillock dome;
Kid-butterflies, we're often asked to pick some for curry,
Finding phantom-forms we ran as scared as rabbit bury...

I hear things that make my dear heart lose its composure.
The news of Earthquakes,cyclones,and tornadoes have brought my rigid heart to a fracture.
Our lands have felt them,even the air,the waters and those high places that...

Yes, I am thinking about the human race
Please note that race has ‘four letters’
And most four-letter words
Can cause problems, ills, havocs and wars
Race is to describe what fills up the space
It is a trivially descriptive...

In the heart of the blackest abyss, down, 
Down, in fathoms deep crypt, where light
Does not penetrate, and the structured protective hauls,
Of men, are crushed beneath pressures massive
Weight, of the oceans deepest depth.
This is truly...

The Calamity of Nepal  Part  2 Concluded


The crisis of Nepal is not only the result
Of manmade deeds and erratic constructions
Of erecting unplanned houses and roads
Creating illegal buildings and dams
And erecting high mountain reservoirs
On...

Another day and sadly another Hip-Hop legend passes
One half of Mobb deep and he's responsible for a few classics
Juvenile hell came out in 93 when I was 1 years old
The infamous which they released in...

The Mother Earth

The fountain of your profound love
Gushing out with presents and gifts
Showering bounties, its treasure trove 
To all mankind your love drifts.

Your rivers and seas, forests and fields
Are full of provisions to banish hunger
You...

“Nature bears long with those who wrong her. She is patient under abuse. But when abuse has gone too far, when the time of reckoning finally comes, she is equally slow to be appeased and...

I never knew love has such a undiscovered side where you learn to be patient and silent even when you don't talk, see or even chat for days, months, but the feelings never budge.

It stays...

MURDEROUS HOLIDAY
By Roy Merritt

The havocs came out of the fog 
with faces wretched and forlorn
Borne them up from hell 
Borne them upon the storm
A vacation from the nether world 
Satan has granted these few
To alight...

My love for grey hairs will not be slaughtered
I like the truth & more
The right to fall over head heels in love.
Following love in its lapses - I see enemies as threat.
Stirring love in a...

Lord you are too funny
Why are you saying all the good things about me?
I am not 
I am spoiled rotten
I can be the worst person on the planet
I can make you mad that you don’t...

Coronavirus

An inconvienance came about
enough to stir the routine mood
and take for granted heaven’s gift
as each day passes without fright

from China first in havocs wake
a virus with a great expanse
it came to choose each continent
and raged...

Held within these hallowed bones, a tempest
Surging in the complicity of night
Dreams and thoughts solidified cease to rest
Sealed fate and ardor no longer hold right

But what force havocs through the human form
Rallying support, red-handed, inflamed
Bloodied...

The hate of time havocs foolish fate
And I, no one's blank slate
Will not my conscience hesitate
Or cast my eyes down at evening's gate.

You are neither victim nor demon since
You of your error is unconvinced
I am...

From afar a mist like  
Folded hand encircles 
The naked atmosphere
Like a drop of oil in water
Spreads,like cancer 
Hides in oblivion and
Manifests unannounced
Wrecking havocs 
To seeds of mother earth,
Like blanket bath
Covers the fleeing legs.
