Biblical Poser
King Herod was such a big dummy
For armies must march on their tummy
Why would he crucify
A "FREE FOOD & WINE" guy
Who could make Army chow quite yummy?...

Remembrance
Today we remember the fallen
on foreign fields that were trodden
     by armies at odds.
     Our wreaths laid on sods
will ensure they are never forgotten....

Soldiers of God
the armies of Heaven
stand in line
holding spear and shield
waiting for their fate
the
soldiers of God
are on both
heaven and earth
protecting the legacy
of God's voice in this world...

Radioactive
Like a mushroom, war blooms with the dark,
Armies troop on and incendiaries fly on.
Mercenaries are cold and greed burns red,
Hearts are so sore and the civilians cry on.

Flowered words of poets, 
colors of artist,
guns of armies, 
prophets of gods,

One never knows from where destruction shall come,
 Yet the galaxies spin on 
unimpressed with the doings of man ....

Blanket
Rifles rattle,
Armies battle
On the plain,
Getting glory,
Grief, or gory
Colored pain.

Conscripts giving
Up their living 
For a patriotic bed
That is bag-shaped,
Shrouded, flag-draped:
Blue, white, red....

Chimeran Crossing
Bridging the gap…
hate falling away

Into the chasm,
fate tightens the stays

Forging two armies,
to now fight as one

Entreating their union
—Saint Michael has come

Angel's amity amidst angry assembled archenemies,
archangel's amazing announcement,
an armistice achieved, armaments acquiesce,
ardent applause,
averted an armed and amoured armies animus
and an Armageddon annihilation...

On Dvorak
Sun rising
Over the rampant seas
Clouds opening to reveal
The armies mustering 
Preparing for death and decimation
They march steadily forward
Into the maws of 
Misguided patriotism
As those they love 
Wonder what 
And why...

Defendense of Home Lands
The armies line up dressed in armor,
Every villager knight and farmer,
They all have come to defend there soil,
That they’ve earned with sweat and toil.

Bloods been spilled before,
And will be spilled again,
But all for country and family....

The I Am Apocalpse
I did behold the vision
one like a daughter of man
singing before the armies of heaven

I did hear what the seven thunders said
said they put on your war robe LORD and go
then go and cleanse the earth with your sword

Nature’s victorious armies of spring and summer
Marching are now, in a stunning glorious retreat, 
Proudly displaying the harvest’s banners of plenty
As their destiny’s undertaking is for now complete!

On the One Hand
our eyes searching for peace
armies besieged our horizons
on the one hand our dreams dies 
on the one hand our hopes are captured

we are on fire in the hot desert 
thirst burns our soul
on the one hand we see a mirage
on the one hand the oasis too far...
