Just a Mercenary

Just a mercenary
Unethical with greed
 Imitating plastic
Modern kind of breed
Logic left disjointed
Blinded by corrupt
Sheer selfishness of others
Merely made messed up!
The missing link on the brink
Of self-annihilation
Digested poor examples
And miscommunication.
Though I have compassion
For the gullible and plain
The self serving ignorance
Is idiotically insane.
We see them on the media
We see them in real life
Dramatising, advertising 
Mutant means of rife…

Friendship We Can'T Buy

Have few friends
             lose them all for
             mercenary ... it is
              an infamy ...!

Elementel Forces Cry

A morbid chill in the wind,
The sea not always quiet,
She's mercenary like her brutality,
The sky a canvas of colours somber and sultry,
A morbid sound within the wind sends shivers inside,
Rain heavy and fast, vast amounts of water from the sky,
A morbid chill within the air,
Have we all lost touch with nature?.

Janissaries of Peculiar Fictions

Janissaries of Peculiar Fictions
David J Walker

Janissaries of Peculiar Fictions
David J Walker

Janissary mercenary 
Defender of the faith
What fate awaits the imaginings 
Of the faithful
From the thrown  colored in
Peculiar fictions unknown

Whether worlds without end
Life everlasting with
Saints and angels singing 
on the heads of pens

Or streets paved with gold
bought and sold with
Favors of 70 virgins 
in waiting

Mercenary Heart

Battered and bruised and broken before
My courageous heart, comes back for more
It soldiers on but finds no peace
Losing time and again, the battles never cease
A kindred spirit it fights to find
Shattered dreams and tears, in it's wake behind
Mending itself after each conflict
Future struggles, it can not predict
One more battle, one more hill
My enduring heart, perseveres

A Mercenary-Based Acquaintance

A young pretty lady, seeking company from an unknown
and to the hospitality of my open arms, she quickly lodge.
A stranger still remains an alien until some acquaintance is established
seeing what is right in front of me, such a feeling was purged.

Sweet conversation, chilly atmosphere and some sense of belonging
are benefits attached, hence nothing observable to

The Mercenary

Just when you think memories die
They say your life flashes before your eyes 
Silent nights 
Scripts of peace in a new born life
Hunger in days
Taken back less for what poverty weighs
A couple visits to I-C-U 
Now as a ghost I see you
Pain inhabits reflection 
My anger and aggression 
Smiles and faces
child’s and different races 
In

Mercenary

lone man stands on the hill
invisible demons picking at his will
reminding him of times he’s killed
showing him of the last time he will
lonely soldiers in unknown graves
left to rot for untold days
they fought not for honor or for hate
but for paychecks day to day
hoping, pleading, praying still
for the souls of those they killed
the old man

Mercenary

On the zig zag zenith
we will polarize
the camps between us
who don't realize
the gullible draft
of the patient soul
complacent idols
we will leave  unwhole.
