Pirates Without Ships

Beware of pirates without a ship
like rebels without a transportive WinWin cooperative cause,
like ego-politicians without sacred ecological-economic portfolios.

and choose not to communicate disvalues
is by how and where and...

In the quietness of dusk, when shadows stretch long over the fields of memory

Memories rise like reflected ghosts, wandering through the labyrinth of thoughts,
Taking me back to the times of childhood, when backyards were boundless...

Shadow is black
My skin is dark.

Black man down
White man's town

Jury men in white ridged caps and black cape cloaks-
take sides with the...

Robin Hood and H G

Robin Hood was captured
Thrown in the castle cells
Here he met an inmate
By the name of H.G.Wells.
Herbert George is fascinated
By the story our Robin has to tell
but he knows Robin will be executed 
When the church...

No more guns

Imagine owning a gun 
and you are doing it for fun
only for it to bring you harm
you become its casualty 
or end up serving a penalty
while it becomes your reality
Destruction is a language they speak

One dumb mistake

Marijuana from a farm in Oklahoma
Chemicals added that could put you in a coma
Grown by a Chinese Mafia, on American land
They don't care if you die by their hand.

Barbed Wire

Barbed wire seems a 'thorny' subject on which to opine,
But there arose a need for such for people and beasts to confine!
Cowpokes cussed as they worked with it mutilating their hands.
Sheepherders fussed with cattlemen as...

Quatrain For Robin Hood

When Robin Hood hides in our wood
I shall not turn him out
I'll let his merry gentlemen
Hang all their bows about.

So when a swaggering M.P.
Comes riding by alone
The arrows of the hidden host
Will ring against the...

The Swallow and the Sheriff

And while you're at the ballot box he's knotting up a rope.

A general kills another man whose children scream and cry
And while you watch...

Tornado

Sky’s black fingered-funnel, pierces 
the night; five people dead; brothers, 
uncles, little mite.

Store clerks, soldiers, sheriffs in pants,
passed on to Jesus, pastors’ rants.


Ripped from the earth, never the norm, 
houses gone, and cars in storm.

Roaring...

They protect us everyday,
It’s not just their job
It’s their chosen way.

They face the unpredictable
With hours that are sometimes long,
They continuously teach our children
The difference between right and wrong.

They put their...
