Iran is called weak.
Yet it gives birth.
A little boy is born,
and suddenly Israel trembles.
Safety now lies in continuation.
A nation survives by existing.
Israel calls
United States to its doorstep,
to fight a war
that profits the few,
not the many.
Those who threaten loudly
often feel weak.
True power does not warn.
It acts—or waits.
Since 1776,
America has marched through wars,
many declared,
few concluded.
Iran stands
7,260 miles away.
Distance becomes danger
only when Israel desires conflict through you.
America fights on behalf of others,
but the Iranian people
are children of endurance.
War is not foreign to them.
If America attacks,
victory will not be simple.
History favors the patient.
David was small.
Goliath was loud.
A sling was enough.
Misuse of power
breeds misery.
Empires rot
before they fall.
For how long, America,
will you police the world
in the name of fear?
Israel influence your governments.
Governments influence wars.
Wars are paid by taxpayers
who gain nothing.
Iraq.
Afghanistan.
Syria.
Now Iran.
Yet Iran is a lion of the mountains.
And now—
it has a child.
Why deny a nation
the right to give birth,
To a little boy, because Israel said so?
Fear of a little boy
reveals your hypocrisy.
Power that threatens the weak,
confesses its weakness.
History watches quietly.
It always does.
Iran's leader was our friend
but Zealots forced his rule to end.
Now Iran joined our fervent foes
The Jihad tree sends out roots and grows.
Then there was Afghanistan.
We got dragged into war in that deadly land.
They had hosted Al Qaeda, practicing how to slay.
Killed 3000 U.S. civilians in one fall day.
We went to war in Iraq too
We thought we'd be welcome, Bush had no clue.
Many turned against us, a bitter hard war.
Many voices here say - what were we fighting for?
Islamic state took sex slaves, also crucified.
beheaded if you're lucky, if not, burned alive.
In the power vacuum, they took a chunk of Iraq.
Eventually, temporarily, we beat the Jihad back.
We'd been fighting in Afghanistan for 20 years,
On paper we were strong, but reality jeers.
So Trump said, “Time to call it done,”
And Biden said, “The war is won.”
We withdrew our troops, doomed people fell off our planes.
It was like Vietnam all over again
And today Al Qaeda camps sprout there, for them no fears.
Could we have stayed, could we keep losing soldiers for years?
“We’ll watch from far" said Biden "over horizon sight,”
He said we'd look out for each woman’s right.
But girls can’t go to school anymore, nor walk alone—
Nobody believes our politicians, we turn tail and go home.
In Christian Lebanon, now Hezbollah rules
An Islamic State graduate took Syria, trusted only by fools.
In Mali now, Al Qaeda looks to win
Three times the land of California, the tide is coming in.
Nigerian leaders minimize a slaughter to cloak
In ten years' time you'll see the same land, different folk.
I've just scratched the surface, to be candid
Recall Mozambique, Christian island, till Jihadists landed.
You say, “So what? that's all far away,
They live their lives a different way.”
But that's what we thought, until airliners flew
Through our skyscrapers, the Pentagon too.
Now you might argue "America First" to keep out is best.
But you might not understand reasons for conquest.
I certainly don't want to be in the first combat wave.
I don't want endless wars, or an early grave.
I don't want to fight totalitarians, just live my life, lots to do
But though we're not interested in war, war may be interested in you.
We have enough problems here, in fact they grow worse every day
Can we stand up to enemies, I wouldn't bet that way.

"DAMASCUS"
There is no collaboration in War
Poison winds and bullets
The fallout from a silent bomb that arrives out of nowhere
Lives left dead and damaged in the rubble
Line's drawn
Zip code
Zip locked
A Child's Tears
A Mother's Face
A blood running river silent scream
An absent State of Grace
A pointed loaded gun
Homeless nowhere to run
The enemy could be close
those you know
havoc reeking destruction
A pointed loaded gun
Another's War
Damascus

Democracy for everyone
The democratic party is in power now
and Trump, for all his flaws, didn´t want a war in the middle east
he sent many soldiers´ home.
The new President Joe Biden sent them back to Iraq
he has an issue with Syria.
There was a revolt many years ago that with the help of the CIA
developed to a civil war, and bombed fell, killing thousands.
A War the USA lost, and the failures on the ground turned into ISIS
and nearly won if it was not for the Russians and Iran,
who pulverized the murderous thugs?
Under the sainted Obama, there were many wars, (Libya) springs to mind)
Joe Biden wants one too, the sight is on Syria bringing Democracy whether
the Syrians like it or not.
Since Joe Biden is an old man and soon will die, he should think
of the Palestinians
so, he can meet his maker with a clear conscience.
The west went in guns blazing to help their fellow man
In Syria against the Islamic State and in Iraq and Afghanistan
They brought an end to a campaign of terror and a killing spree
And made the world a better place and safe for everybody.
So why in God's name is the civilised world, just standing by?
While thousands of innocent men, women and children die
What is it about Russia, that murdering terrorist state?
Are we just going to look away, leaving them to their fate?
Ukraine is running out of fresh water, they have no electricity
While the Russians carry on firing missiles, indiscriminately
And committing atrocities that would make a grown man cry
A harsh winter is fast approaching and many people will die.
Why are NATO and the civilised west worried about escalation?
While Russia carries on pulverising that peace loving nation
Enough is enough, NATO needs to put boots on the ground
And rain down hellfire on that Russian scum, round after round.
The west is sending arms and humanitarian aid to Ukraine
But dragged their feet when they requested a fighter plane
Vladimar Putin growls like a dog and the west backs away
We shouldn't listen to his rantings, he must be made to pay.
Ukraine got rid of all nuclear weapons with the fall of the iron curtain
I bet they wished that they hadn't given them up of that I am certain
Because the yellow backed Russian scum would never have invaded
And their threat to world peace would never have escalated.
Written 24th November 2022
Up to October's end
life was peaceful and delightful;
I enjoyed the strolls and chats,
going to baseball games,
seeing crowds cheer at CitiField
and I zealously wrote
about many human experiences.
Disaster as predicted,
was in store for two thousand twelve:
Italy was shaken by earthquakes,
drought and floods in the USA,
then Sandy came with fury
wreaking havoc and destroying
everything in its path.
Thankful and blessed
for not having lost anything,
greatly rejoiced for being alive,
but moved by the tears of others
whose homes were slammed
by the storm on the eastern coast...
who doesn't sympathize with their loss?
Obama has been re-elected,
will he bring those changes
he promised in the first term?
Iran has fired at an American Warfare
and vows to exterminate Israel;
Syria is in turmoil and Greece
is facing unemployment and unrest.
An unimaginable fear awaits us all:
is it another World War, or Armageddon?

the bleeding Africa
Africa is the cake
of the hunters
at a table some where
In the west
from yesterdays history
Africa was stabbed
chosen and divided
till now it still bleeds
it scars is obvious
home and abroad
till today the hunters
are still hunting
so always we have
the bleeding Africa
the bleeding Africa
Africa still bleeds
in the well of poverty
we are sock with starvation
history with proves
never lie
neither does the proves
with it obvious reality
of Africa proves me wrong
am a young bleeding soul
from Africa
a human like everyone
yet it hurts to see
what is your right
denied
taken away in Greed's
like we worth nothing
our land destroyed
like we are nobody
our economy controlled
to devaluation
like we are not accountable
of our own
so here you see
why always we have
the bleeding Africa
the bleeding Africa
Africa bleeds to wars
we are not far from Syria
we exist but walk in shadows
our hero's don't last
our struggle never end
our dream is always eternity
despite our grave yards
are always full
full of the innocent
who did nothing evil to
deserve an early grave
our old are sick
our hospital are worn out
so our needs always remains
endless to no avail
starving people all over
the place
moving around in
the bleeding Africa
the bleeding Africa
35 years I have seen
the world
35 years I see same
politician's controlling
Africa
is obvious in 35 years
I realise they are mere
pulpit
35 years I grow to see
they are not what we need
a man of 35years
is no longer a boy
he could be a president
so in 35 years of my
life on earth all I see
from the old days till
now is nothing but
the bleeding Africa
Voices facing headwinds feel the calming seas
Elephants grasping backdraft tails are letting
go and hearing the rumble of discontent.
The runaway (with your $$$) train called washing-
ton with earplugs jammed so tight hairpieces
jiggle with every falsehood.
People are waking up!
People are waking up!
Were you asked if money is better spent (1/2 trillion$
stolen from
your future) arming blurred sides in Syria that we
intend to bomb? then decry their use against us?
We the people are no longer in control and live in
fear. Do you worry I cannot speak freely in this
land of liberty?
WHY?
My ancestors died in battle so I can write this
diatribe!
You, all of you artists, they fear us most...
and silence us if our words pull the sheep
away from 'dancing with the stars'
I am not a slave...I am not a slave
Rejoice in liberty!
Join my voice!
