Short Armament Poems

Love was born
An instinct inborn
Love took its first step
An invasion of sense
Love was real
An emotion to feel
Love was a belief
An armament for relief

Love became a fallacy
An imprint of fantasy
Love turned into melancholy
An output of jealousy
Love became hate
An apocalyptic fate
Love became extinct
In my heart’s precinct...

The skies of Paris were lit up
in 1940, when the Luftwaffe 
rained down armament...

Burned again in student riots
in 1968, with the protests
against parliament

Then again an apartment block
In 2019, Feb, arson after a 
neighbours' argument

And now the skies light up once more 
In 2019, now Our Lady's flames 
on the firmament 


(c) The Didds 2019...

Waraments

We must face a crisis that is of our making
Arming countries whilst it citizens starves
Remember greed is a hunger we can't feed
Ammunitions serves no purpose if no wars
Maybe peace can exist, not if there's greed
Each day another country begins a conflict
Nothing new there but at expense of it own
Today greed is tomorrow hunger we'll feed
So let start today cease the armament sale...

Ten thousand chains their bayonets piercing one's flesh; embedded
Spirit's these devilish hooks bereaved it's mastery ? Gomorrah, enchanted
Of baroque embellished your melodies a millstone, pulling hearts down his barracuda
Come out of Babylon, my child: Goliath, her guilotine and all creation groans their, calvary....
Keen jaeger's armament God'speed extracting thorns entangled time; tis what she's like, entombed....

Technology ascending
  Traditional religion ending
Robots comprehending
  Life's secrets upending

Black holes extending
  Cyber wars impending
Electronic devices contending
  Wizard-like gurus pretending

Media noise unrelenting
   Massive armament-spending
Extremism transcending
   Holocausts never ending

How much better now, our enlightened Life --
   Man's Progress measured in Death, Polarization and Strife...

Bullseye,
on dot,
marksman,
archer,
and a great shot,
each aim,
for him was a killed game,
he struck fear,
when he began to shake,
and have his armament leer,
he did not know,
that his days,
were near for taking a bow,
another of his clan,
had a long plan,
this time when he took the aim,
and could utter victim's name,
a little pain traversed,
from his temple to temple,
and he bowed and fell,
in a pool of blood ample....

These are very bad times for our nation.
We are in a very dire situation.
Our tsar is not in his palace anymore,
since our country is embroiled in a war.
The tsar is supervising the front line armament.
In St. Petersburg, a mad man is heading our government.
The tsarina is very difficult to convince
since Rasputin has hypnotic power over the prince.
We must come to the aid of Mother Russia.
Let’s murder that little monkey from Siberia.

The armament 

Awakening into the harsh light
of blinding loyalty.
Jubilation and flags.
Soldiers synchronized 
Stirring talks, hateful lies told
La vie en la rose
someone sings to stall time
The unthinking holler
Daring, the long night
The thinkers know the score
The smart knows too
but join, bet on the winner
Among the ruins, the unthinking walk
The scholars write books
the smart knows when the smell 
of cordite is gone, the world needs 
more weapons...
