Long Objector Poems

It seemed to me,
when I was eight,
U.S. Christian disciples and teachers
had been given so much grace

for God's universally healthy
multicultural EarthTribes.

It was so...

I want to respond
to the retired Marine
who watched Democratic Congressional Leaders
during the State of our crippled Union event,
disappointed at how their patriotism,
their loyalty to sacred sacrifices of soldiers
appears too tepid,
jaded,
ungrateful
as compared to more thunderous enthusiastic...

Femme Fatale By A Wishing Well 
  (In The Wastelands Of War)

Warm as breath on placid skin,
Soft as gentle summer rains,
Loud as natures angry clouds
That gather in ambushed lanes,
To confer with the wounded boys

“Now listen to Nanny, while the nurse gives you a shot.
I’ll tie your hands fast, so you can’t throw a swing.
Potion injected will tend to burn hot.

Weird Ways and Good Old Days

If feature was made into a modern day
About past, wonder what it would say
Things have been done in weird ways
And were always called good old days.

This to some might sound...

As a child and a teenager I used to attend a mission-hall, 
Which had an outreach to the homeless of Edinburgh; 
And every three weeks until I was about seven,
They would give the last call...

Military Mind 
Military Mind 
 
 
Sexless uniformed surfaces not needing a life inside. Worthless devils fighting 
all the time and hurting all others against the flag or under orders or authorized

Help me save just one
They are so many
I have reason for no gun
I refuse the use of any
Use me to carry him
On my back to safety
It’s now dark, dim
Just one, help me
To what am I...

Where do dreams go if they die?
You can't put em in your pocket
You can't plant em in the sky.
And if you hide em in your heart
Then with you they'll surely die.
Where do dreams go, can...

Born a hellraiser, and lived that way
For the better part of his days
Til riding back home, one stormy night
Struck by lightning, he kneels and he prays

Now he was torn, about who he was
And he didn't...

Villanelle : The Dilemma of the Non-Violent – 18

World in which is ingrained innate violence
Where nation-States all hell-bent on blitz wars

Oh my god, what have we done 
Just gone and killed, your only son
Even worse, tortured him to death 
Jeering whilst he gasped for breath 
In realisation, we’re overwhelmed 
Certain now, to be all condemned...

NIMBY

I have a penchant for nature
				Sacrosanct
As I mature it grows
			Paramount

A proclivity toward the conception of the attributes of my affection

Life, animation, progenitor, the essence of 
							Vivacity

Conveys its invioble existence in the plethora of ways it...

Where it is warm, cozy and oh - so popular.
She keeps an eye for the birds on the porch,
Always on the lookout, she’s my torch.

She then jumps down...
