THE REAPED OF CHAOS

A nightmare without terror,
A peaceful life without savor.
Voluble blasphemies
In the flames of a hell
Perfumed with the stench of lust.

A heart loaded with lugubrious memories,
My soul bellows in the darkness.
Running to die, for barren pleasures,
Insatiable are the sickles of the reaper.

Allergic to flashing lights, even with a spotless record,
I wander in the obscurity of their hatred.

Thirsty for bills of every color,
I sometimes gaze at my scars
So as never to lower my guard,
Always on alert like a fugitive terrorist.

A few victims etched on the clocks of my conscience,
I have lost liters of hemoglobin, scraps of flesh,
Worshipper of spontaneous shots of adrenaline.

I know the story of my genetic code,
I will never be ashamed of coming from a third-world country.
I have rummaged through the trash of my memory
Before scourging the arrogance of my oppressors.

Lamentation has never been scribbled
In the script of my existence.
Clairvoyant, I behold the world
With the eyes of the bearer of celestial lights.

Nothing but interests in my directory,
I have no time to scrutinize
The complexities of human nature.
I glean my elation
From the fears of my enemies.

I carry the stature of those slaves
Drugged by the peace pipe of liberty.

Premium Member Living the Dream

Living the Dream
By
Kevin L Fairbrother

From Hobart to Cape York from Perth to Sydney
And all the cities, towns and country in-between
I am visiting places on this Island I’ve never seen
Experiencing the highs and lows and living the dream

East and west of the great divide a picture so different
In the west the landscape so bruised, dry and parched
With the drought lingering and causing so much suffering
People so resolute and tough don’t know the meaning of giving up

East of the divide a picture of greenery as far as the eye can see
Not feeling the hardship of life unlike their cousins on the other side
Here the cities and country towns are vibrant and alive
For the mountains hide the devastation on the western side

Thousands of kilometers and thousands of liters of fuel
Not to mention the thousands of dollars well spent
With my Ute and van I’m able to greet a new day in a new place
So every day is a new adventure called living the dream

So many new and old friends I have met and greeted
Lots of campfires and happy hours under the stars
Filled with stories of travel, adventure and friendship
The memories of which will stay with me fore-ever

So many places I have been, so much I have experienced and seen
The sea of sugar cane from that stretches the eastern coast
The beaches, the forests, the mountains, the flora and fauna
All visited and reached by manmade roads that stretch from coast to coast

The country music musters so enjoyed by so many travelers
The buildings and relics of old so rich in fame and history
The diverse cultures that live on because people care
Are just a small part of living the dream in Australia

I will keep travelling as I follow the ribbon of tar
For every day I wake to something so different
As my life unfolds towards an ending down the track
I’ll sleep with the memories, I’m living the dream.

Premium Member New Start

New year starts from prayers to cheerful soul and nice eating habits
      Nutritious foods, balanced diet and purity of life always keep us fit.

Every morning, let’s all stretch, bend, jump, walk, run or dance
      Exercise controls weight, heart and brain cells are enhanced.
 
Working every day at long hours…so exhausting, we sweat a lot
      We need to drink 2 to 3 liters of water especially if the weather is hot.

Sunshine-exposure each morning strengthens muscles and bones
      Stronger body resistance to diseases boasts soundly like horn.

Temperance regarding foods, smoking, alcohol or liquor 
     Trash vices! Health is annihilated at a drunken stupor.

Air is fresh and soothing at beaches-- take time to walk, inhale
    Always check air quality index, wear mask if AQI is low, fails.

Relax once in a while, watch movies, listen to music or sing
    Rest from long days’ work, refresh mind, have enough hours of  sleeping.

These health laws add life, bring peace and joy, dodging all tears
    Trust God above all, for spirit and body’s strength throughout the year.

Not a Glass To Drink

The pearl Indian Ocean,my soil,Sri Lanka a blessed with no less anything,so impressed .Flora and fauna wherever to see and smell,mountain ranges sitting like angels in the central adding beauty,the rivers turning like snakes in all directions spring from their mother mountain genes.

It rains in all monsoons sometimes fails.Here and there some reservoirs holding rain water to generate hydroelectric power.Rotating Sun all over the world in March summer marched  down here in Sri Lanka burning the Lankan heads.Rain falls here in monsoons and fails sometimes even during monsoon.The Sun in thirst drinking the waters with its ray hands,holding in the reservoirs until they are running dry.Sudden power cuts imposed for want of rain to the dismay of people.

When it rains in monsoons water,water everywhere in liters everyone to drink.But in March summer not a glass to drink.Power cuts imposed hitting the pockets of masses and crunch state treasury is like insult to injury.

Failing is in human genes came from Adam in Paradise but God never fails.God gives enough water even all to swim for years.How can it happen to rain every moment everyone like? God has given the sixth sense instead to make use of it to decide what’s right and what’s wrong.Men for his foolishness fail in his decisions and pass the blame on God for no rain.If men is that wise he has to save rain water in a proper way to utilize it when there is no rain.

We have enough learned people here but these unlearned give no room for the learned knowing geography,the one much learned mathematics but the unlearned let the learned to  watch their monkey dancing to the tune of ignorance.It’s like 
Dogs bark not allowing cows to chew grass!

he knows his block making though, formula, and production.
He has a skill for density and scaled production procedures.
I found him keen and quite genius.

Homestead City Gypsies

The load bearing capacity 
Load bearing consistency
It lack such but provides
the artist the ability to create
It's need for insulation
He stood before with
Such a grin
The conversation would be
needed to talk in a standized
Way.
Grams into ounces
Kilos into pounds
Liters into cups
They stood there smiling
Like gold miners we
Struggle with the same
Math.
Might these conversations
Make the fear of gypsum
Block making easier or
easiest that we fear not
that thou are with us
To speak these manga stations true.
That those who wish us parted
May frown in the fact that have
been undermined in a reversed fashion
Might they then speak us as
Lord and Laird, yet we pray
Yet we pray!

The Great Lakes - Part Two

An alternate track is via Illinois River (from 
Chicago), to Mississippi, up the Ohio, and then 
through the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway 
(combination of a series of rivers and lakes 
and canals), to Mobile Bay and the Gulf. 
Commercial tug-and-barge traffic on these waterways is heavy.

Pleasure boats can also enter or exit Great Lakes 
by way of the Erie Canal and Hudson River in New York. 
The Erie Canal connects to Great Lakes at 
east end of Lake Erie (at Buffalo, New York) and 
south side of Lake Ontario (at Oswego, New York).

Statistics:
The Great Lakes contain 21% of the world’s fresh surface water: 
5,472 cubic miles (22,810 km3), or 6.0×1015 U.S. 
gallons (2.3×1016 liters). This is enough water 
to cover the 48 contiguous U.S. states to a uniform depth 
of 9.5 feet (2.9 m). 

Although the lakes contain 
a large percentage of world's fresh water, 
the Great Lakes supply only a small portion of 
U.S. drinking water on a national basis (roughly 4.2%). 
Winter 2009–10 was somewhat mild, the precipitation 
was below normal for Great Lakes Basin. 

Mean lake levels are thought to be slightly below or 
at their levels of 2009. An ice jam in February 2010 
dropped the level in Lake St. Clair. Since jelly roll more 'in jam 
was removed the level has come back to its average. 
As of March 2010, the lakes were at the level, or slightly 
below, where they were in March 2009.

The combined surface area of the lakes is approximately 
94,250 square miles (244,100 km2)—nearly 
the same size as the United Kingdom, and larger 
than U.S. states of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, 
Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, and New 
Hampshire combined.The Great Lakes coast measures 
approximately 10,500 miles (16,900 km);
however, the length of a coastline is impossible to measure 
exactly and is not a well-defined.

Premium Member A Who Thanksgiving

The Who’s were all gathered one Thanksgiving day.
Their little brains pondered what games they might play.
They’d already feasted so royally that
they couldn’t stand up from the place where they sat.

They’d hobgoblin-gobbled their fish with no break
when they pigged out on pork and a juicy beast steak.
On Yorkshire pudding so puffy and yummy
they soaked up their gravy and filled up their tummy.

They tore into trifle. Someone blew a raspberry!
Toffee pudding so sticky made each Who so merry.
They guzzled mulled wine - those Who over-eaters.
Oh how they guzzled those big wine-filled liters.

They’d wanted to think up fun games, but each Who,
by the time they stopped feasting, could not a thing do!
Their tooting and pooting turned into their game,
and I’m thankful no Who in that room lit a flame!
