Laura Weighs Luther For An Affair

Laura was looking back at him:
A coat for the first fine time trim,
A new eye glass with a gold rim
But Luther still not looking slim,
His bright eyes now gloomily dim...

Laura had this long sung to him
Like a Blues' tune, no, like a hymn,
Even as he bought her a SIM
"Don't be cup filled to its brim:

Mr Marcher- Martin L King

And now we walk together while holding each other's hands.
Back then, our unity remained undiscovered.
Although you had other plans,
that you pushed through while you suffered.

You marched ahead for rights that were left behind.
Making sure the next generations wouldn't have to

It earned you a Nobel Peace Prize, one of your greatest finds.
And lead you to realise,

Dr Martin Luther King Jr Dream, Hope and Inspiration

Dr. Martin's dream is a dream for many generations
Past, present and future… Life is about hope, compassion
Love, freedom and justice. It's not asking for too much
Because human lives are precious and priceless. As such
We were all created in the same manners. No one got
More, no one deserved less. There are three levels in the lot

Comparing Luther and Mandela

Shall I forget my asking a brother:
“Who of The Two has A Much Taller Order?”
And Dairy Hand mishandled An Udder,
For round spinning to watch Close Adder…

Martin Luther and Nelson Mandela,

A tireless showcasing of deranged energy,
Nearby grasses his sworn enemy:
A stern warning to the green vegetation 
About kindling it, no hesitation:

Or begin to deny a maternal bond…

Often summarized as Dead Confusion,

I Love You Doctor King

Dr. Martin Luther King is one of my heroes, and a spiritual guide.
I feel he is giving me ideas from beyond the veil, and I pay attention
Our connection is real, and mystical. I knew this as a child.
I visited his church in Atlanta, Georgia and his sermons were piped in.
When I heard him, I began

I Had a Dream

A great man had a dream
Ending in a murder scene
And I'm not such a man
Never been so brave or grand

But little one
I had a dream
About a nation that became...

A dazzling sky
The heroes of youth
A burning ache
Resurrecting Truth

My dreamy one
I had a dream
About a nation that became...

A guiding hand
Wipes the greed away
A whistle blown
Digs corruption's grave
