Long Wave the white flag Poems

Curse you, curse you forgiving and patient heart
you would receive a thousand papercuts 
before admitting a person's fault

His name was Ezra but you didn't and wont know him.
An observant nihilist, pouring out vile play scripts in 400 word messages.
Researching one's hyper-fixation so the insomniac has someone who he may believe will enjoy...

Here from the ledge
eye for detail is really quite keen
seen from the sills, giving new edge
to life stretching flat, where black and white
is neatly sketched

There are women who feel a strong need
To nag men until their ears bleed
In a war of attrition
With relentless petition

Men wish for a life of peace 
But get...

Why do I continue with this book
the chapters either deadly dull
or all the action occurring at once
in an overwhelming cascade of events
that muddles the mind
too complex to keep up with
impossible to sort out the storyline

STAND UP

Stand up!
Don't give up.
Don't wave the white flag.
Don't give in.
What a shame!  What a sin!

I see a green, slimy smog coming from your mouth 
It smells so bad, it should have come from down south 
You smile like it's no big deal 
If bad breath was a move in...

LET THE BEES BE

I was ordered to surrender
by someone who used to be so tender
and i've changed my face so many times before

Throughout the passing years
I surrender to you

With memories so grand
On a mountain in which I stand
I surrender to you

With love so strong
We, together, never belong
I surrender to you

A past is buried
Once we...

Why do people create War?
Bombarding each other til the spirit is raw
Inflicting pain on strangers
It’s a numbers game...who kills more.

No one wants to lose
So death is what they choose
Who made THESE people “God”?
Where in hell...

Charlie the cowboy got a fright,
when aliens started a fight. 
He prepared to save the town's plight,
before the day turned into night.

ready to battle till sundown.

I refuse to run and hide.

When enemies and knaves come to seize

I have a no-fear DNA that dwells inside.

I'm popping out for everyone to see with no desire to please.
