Senseless violence, again
I bask in my sorrow
Where once again we must witness
humanity's frail idiocy
Another lone agitator and deceived soul
spreads violence and his ego's greed
It shows the world that he has never
had his own thought.
Can no one spare us from those
that will use this to stand on and see
their pure lying righteous?

We have turned this entire earth into a senseless graveyard through ignorance and fear
We have turned this entire earth into a senseless graveyard through ignorance and fear,
people are afraid to say YES to life, afraid to listen to the deep laws of their BEING,
afraid to surrender to the direct experience of life as if to a purifying stream,
remaining forever captive in the clutches of cultural conditioning that drowns

How to? Why do?
Why disturb a functioning country? Why force untried
Socialogical patterns.? Why dis-place positive gender
Roles? Why encourage seperate (communitys?) Then
Advise coming together? (Why?) Why would anyone do
Such iniquity.? Why encourage more people into higher
Education? When there was not enough opportunity?
Thereby leaving manual workplaces needing more applicants? Why cause less birth rates? Encourage even.?
Why alter course?

civil war
Hamlet, sharpen your sword of trust, for Macbeth is surely waiting.
The specter of ‘Civil war’ stalks the land and the ghosts of senseless violence, so long docile, have come to hollow-eyed attention.
Our cauldron was filled with innocence, as the ever-thirsty succubi require, the glory of war is being shaken, not stirred and the betrayal will

Senseless Days
In senseless ways for days on days
She wandered in nomadic haze
Gazed upon sporadic strays
In clarity to manic craze
Want not for more than place to graze
Where not one seeks to change her ways
To be afloat in sheltered bays
With no ask for the tolls she pays
Barefoot from sole to soul in case
The earth may speak and so

Senseless Suffering
1/27/23
Remaining a junkie
Continually spending money
Like a dummy
Life ain't always sweet like honey
It's cold not always sunny
They're out for bloodshed, so it turned bloody
They're still racist full of hatred so times got ugly
When push comes to shoving
I'm covering much ground, important matters I'm touching
Still so many bluffing
My family so out of touch with one another,

Another Sad and Senseless Massacre of Our Brothers and Sisters
Not safe in God’s House
In trouble at the Schoolhouse
In danger at the White House
Especially, in our own house
We’re hunted like the old time
Prosecuted
And persecuted
Like breathing was a crime.
Too much racial hatred
This is a new, new apartheid
They want our blood, our sweat
For nothing, for pennies
They want us on our knees
Begging like a cheap pet
Like we have

Senseless
Stop the madness, I entreat.
On Southside, Chicago Street
Sparked rat-a-tat of gunfire.
A toddler caught in crossfire!

A Senseless War
Senseless war
The suffering poor
Bombs explode
So much charity to unload
Refugees flee
Casualties they will see
Hiding in stations
In harms way
Such a cruel nation
The rockets light up the sky
In the distance a child will cry
Another nation must intervene
A shocking outcome will likely be seen
Widows grieving
Assistance receiving
A terrible fight
A long suffering night
Crying mothers
sisters mourning brothers
A senseless war
What's it all for?

Do Murders Seem Senseless
Violent offenders released without bail
a senseless reform, it unfailingly fails
Victims walk alone in dark alleys at night
then rant on the news 'bout the lack of streetlights
Movies at theatres feature a killing a minute
Hollywood's culture of death implicated in it
Crude rap songs glorify every nasty habit imaginable
blare from

Senseless
He asked if you had sense
You did not understand what he meant
You go home thinking about that
Until flies over your head
A black bat with suddenly makes you sad
For no good reason,even in a to celebrate season
You still thinking
Along your blinking
You feel you're sinking
You're in a useless mess
You think it is a test
The only reason

Senseless
courage lies in the eye of beholders
but unfriendly fire had blinded her sight
collateral damage in the face of a battle
long lost shrapnel in hollow sockets
visions of compassion dissected by slaughter
thunder of warfare in bullet proof darkness
