Risk and Riot
Cold choice, listen to the voice! Waver filleth all! He who suffers Sin annoys? Blanching light, thy pall. Hated minutes of each day! Flickering in time! Doubt belies all disarray! Drop and drop, O dime! Slickened hatchet, cudgel black! Blood along the back! Stuff the world down bitter crack! What then profits? Stack? Weather, winter, splinter! Shredder, call the storm! Brutal blight, art beginner? Blizzard, keep us warm! Swarm of locust,...

Beyond the riot of colors
I stand at the edge of a canvas, where the world is painted in hues of black and white, their quiet constancy my only refuge. Like the moon’s loyal reflection on a still lake, these two shades have danced through my life, never straying from their path. They are the steady rhythm of my heartbeat,...

today is the day
Mother tongue held in such high regard, not only words, tone is known. Beating chests signal the end, well maybe in the mind of the ignorant. Broken glass, and sweeping rubble make for the coldest of soundtracks to the nightly news. Failing to heal without the bandage of community, fractured are the few. Discontent and disavowed...

Value for Life
When law and order broke down on the street, And people run riotous, with no retreat, Looting and destroying city's core, Youth, in their recklessness, yearn for war. But only those who've witnessed war's cruel face, Can truly cherish peace and its embrace. A youngster clamoring for battles to wage, Knows not that war brings death and endless rage. Until, suddenly, hundreds fall...

Your Enticements Are Incitements

Quiet Not In Riot
Oh! How great it tastes: Steamy Riot But is it delicious like Quiet? How glorious it appears: Chariot Still in some wars and conflicts: Idiot… I had had to talk about Riot: The scene promising all but quiet, The maddest jury of a chariot, As men go for chaos like diet. Real and fake claims clash with canisters They flee who had...

Chariot
To War goes a Chariot: To a Special Riot; With Quivers of Arrows, Bones piercing with Marrows… Had Throwers of Javelin, All through Men, no Jocelyn. Chariots were for Elliot And Judas Iscariot; Largely part-horse, part-cart You’d see and lose heart! The Armored Car of Old, Now in loved plastic Sold; For The Tough Kid as Toy, Future Soldier still Boy; Some in...

An Idiot Does Not Riot
Demonstrators in all riots Aren’t at all full or half idiots: Any fellow on Rich Diet Most likely will remain quiet… Idiots don’t fear Police Canister, Whose contents are damned sinister. Cops begin to consult Tear Gas And vanish would even a lass; For man fancies not Helpless Tear; Once its source sights, to The Rear... With Betrayers they remonstrate, Against The Bizarre demonstrate: Idiots don’t...
