“It Came in Our Dreams”

The Others 
watch on,
somewhere above us.

we, ant like
form our battalions
soldier ants 
with no substantial sting
repelling reptilian 
brains in flight
striking our oily deals 
sliding into our nightmares, 
acrid smoke, bee-keeping our hives
we...

"Revolutions"




7

We are all for the Fall
in the seasons of His hands
where He pulls in the strings 
of all His puppets 
calling in cold legions 
in a bitter Winter bleeding
before Spring arrives again
bathed in Light
and a...

The Caricature 
You like to label it as a nefarious empire
 brought to power by an unpropitious circumstance
paint a picture of evil and malfeasance
blood soaked canvas is the final image 
mass murderers, the greatest genocide

Let me take you back
To 1942
In Sagan ( Zagan ) Poland
In World War II
 
Their was built a camp
For prisoners of war
Primarily Air Force
Heroes galore
 
The site was selected
To escape them tunnelling
Deterring their efforts
In freedom...

Nuremberg, Nuremberg, I’ve done nothing wrong
only followed orders, the children only song.
First it was the word, next it was the book
then it was history, surreptitiously they took.

From a child’s birth, others choose the way 
raising...

…the seeds of neo-Nazism are germinating  
Markus Nierth, former mayor of Tröglitz, Germany 2015

Germany’s rock candy windows and cookie like shingles make seeing the oven inside impossible. At first, the obsessive compulsive cleanliness of...

When ruling orders are given,
subordinates must make it so
If they are evil decisions,
then lesser ranks should not yield their integrity
They should have enough moral fortitude to say no
A Jezebel justification
is an ancient war crime against...

War crime trials had come and gone
And Nuremberg became old news
But there were some who would escape
They packed their bags, with no remorse
Changing names, and hid away
They had shamed the course of history

They had slithered...

When the Germans invaded Latvia and Estonia
They decided these people would have 3rd Reich favours
And so they recruited or drafted young men into the Waffen SS 
Who fought on the Eastern Front battles showing their...

when the “dignitary,”
the president or the lesser puppet
stands down from their post
to “write” their book &
blab on the lecture circuit,
those who remember the bloodshed
of which their administrations
were responsible
make their way to the front 
to grab...

Whisper this in your baby's ear
science poses little fear.
Though still primitive and childlike,
it finds first tracks on which to strike.

Billions spent on science research
scantly more than a stumbling lurch.
Bright babies will topple toy towers
as Mom...

With no end in sight and a year has passed. 
Kremlin won’t admit their forces are gassed. 
So they keep their foot on the wrong pedal. 
Exhausting their labor and supply of metal.

The things of which we cannot speak
Make us become we cannot say
The thing brought back from yesterday
That praised the strong and crushed the weak

That thing whose name we cannot name
That fathers fought to keep at...

What can I write, a mere mortal, to an angel?
What has not been written before 
more eloquently than I can ever dream?

Pen in hand, I glance at you over my glasses
Older now, as we are...

Covid-19, do you run
on some evil foot 
out of sight,
beneath the light
till your Napoleonic march
brings you to rout?

Or out of habit
Do you lust for old flesh
due to a generation gap?

Alien footsteps on our life intrudes

(a poem in Senryus)

They say that you should
never follow whisky with
beer - but my new rhyme

is - never follow
several martinis with
two more martinis

Ladies, please take my
advice, you can’t focus your
eyes in the morning

When your roommates...
