Shoot Poems

Illegitimi Non Carborundum

Here's a thought or two for you
and it's not that I am bitter
but when around and about a look I took
it ground me down to see such litter
tourists travelers neighbours too
please let me remind
think what you do I beg of you
and only footprints leave behind
but when it comes to living things

On Target

He had to be mad
to invade Ukraine
his troops followed orders
they must all be insane
to cross the borders
an unwarranted attack
by a megalomaniac
bombarding innocents
who couldn't fight back
one leader was a comedian
the other is a clown
the former gave us smiles
the latter makes us frown
what do the Russians hope
to achieve or accomplish
by destroying all they covet
leave us alone Ukraine's

If they shoot, tell my story

A boy writes a letter to his mother
She will know nothing of it
Until
Something bad happens
But he knows something will
He knows the colour of his skin
He knows that it means a possible death sentence 

He gives his mom direct instructions 
Of what to do if they try to silence his existence

Shoot Me with Words and I Will Rise

I have known the ache of being picked apart
by cultures trying to prey on my wounded heart.
By predators whose cruel words were spoken,
hoping they'd left me bleeding and broken.

I've cried out in sorrow from slurs of disdain,
felt the prick of their thorns like nettles of pain.
I needed healing when my feelings were spurned
Not bodily, but

Directors cut Cad Jax Spoken Word Vid Shoot

(Lights dim, a single spotlight illuminates the speaker. A beat drops, subtle and rhythmic.)
 Cad Jax. Yeah, that name hummed with the city's pulse, a neon flicker in the back alley of your mind/
 (A slight snap of the fingers)
 He was Mr. Flow, man, pure, uncut man on the go/
 Had a ride that

The US president tells Israel not to enter Gaza
Israel enters anyway, which tells us the might

Don't Shoot the Messenger

Pardon me I have a message

You may think that it's a joke

But the bank has sent this letter

To inform you that you're broke

I can tell by your expression

None of this is very funny

But your wife and her lawyer

Just ran off with all your money 

I know this comes as quite a shock

But Mister Man I'm

Shoot that Arrow

Love come find me, remind me, how it feels not to be alone,
Where are you? Be near me, I’ve done the work I’ve grown,
Has Love forgotten me, gone far away?
Did Cupid skip out and not want to play?
I know I’m deserving; I was willing to wait,
But twenty long years, Alone, aint great.

There is no denying,

the immigration bill 3-2-1 shoot down

Gun funds fought latin commies
And launched immigrant tsunamis
Trump's wall at the border
Now reads out of order
And can't stop the kids and their mommies

Gave many a scare
Being bullied is no vacation

Republicans caught in a lie
We do know why they won't vote aye
They'd the polls ruffle
