Premium MemberLennon and Napalm

The Beatles split up so mystically -pronto
the Vietnam spine came back together
some branded the blame into Yoko
some tied a wreath of thorns on the reds.

Imagine time moving queerly along-
Lennon was so very seductively shot
rice paddies are still pocked with craters
where peasants' cast ancient nets into ponds. 

The Beatles will never peace back together.
Vietnam will never

Napalm Salmon Dinner

Salmon Dinner

nothing can be separate us 
a child from a mother 
a brilliant plan and a truck

go steal his bank card
riding home dad doesn't know
that I am wanted
neither do I

sneaking in the back door
salmon dinner and rice await
while I wait for a chance

I allready know the secret

slipping a card out of his pocket
as dinner awaits

Napalm Rain

Deadly chemicals
parked in the cargo hold
of an American military plane
Destination: the jungles of Vietnam
Guerillas in the mist ...
communism with an Asian face
is on the uptick
It's the 60's, man
Free love don't like none of that 
paid warring
Progressive rock-n-roll got a hippie soul,
but seeing flags burning make patriotic blood boil
Peaceful protesting
on college campuses all across the American

Premium MemberNapalm In the Morning

All the marches suppressed
And dissenters in jail,
Fascist troops are in charge of the mall,
And God’s churches now given last rites,
While our Statue of Liberty melts at Trump’s touch
As our President fiddles unburdened by tune,
The fat Savage finds joy in the sights.

Yes, the demon possessed
Are a sign of our times,
Reasoned change and consent put to death,
Shameless

Napalm and the Evil That Man Do

The evil that Man do, the US military outdid themselves...
When  they rained  napalm into the lush jungles of Vietnam...

Political ideologies were being fought, and the US was arrogant with their might...
But the US was suffering  badly against the guerrila tactics fought out of sight....

All hell breaking loose in the treacherous  dense

Torpedos Napalm

TORPEDOS’ NAPALM

T remors shocked the penguins of the Arctic Circle.
O rbital the water lobbed in the ocean.
R otating in a circumnavigating format
P enguins dangled high in the air.
E stablishing that quavers do manifest in cold weather,
D issolving the water into a formed ditch.
O nly the vibrations remained.

N uclear bodies lye in rigor mortis.

Napalm

It was a roar like no other you’d ever hear,
It always brought death and fear;
And  limbs and the already dead, jumped
Up to meet it, the tin tube from America,
Bringing the end of life to everything

And if you only felt the heat, maybe you’d not
Heard the roar; or your daughter’s screams
As her flesh fell from

Doused In Napalm

At a loss,
The trees seemed to confirm
That I was losing the inspired
fire

That once raged;
Consuming all the insides.

Yes many a night, & early slant of sunlight
I stood unzipped skin 
Laying out every organ,artery,blood,
Blood vessels, cells, veins,
All of every inch that rests
beneath this earth

Giving up a complete holocaust
for the ever eventual muse,
Now standing emptied midway between the
