Obfuscation
Too often anger wells in me
Like an unquenched dragon
Seeking answers shielded by
Wealthy or powerful pricks,
Truth shaded or obscured
By political appointees eager

INGRATITUDE 

“No surest enemy than the one who was benefited" SOCRATES 
 

Ingratitude,
You ungrateful: 
Traitor of trust
Destroyer of kindheartedness
Apostate of friendship
Annihilator of beneficence  
Assassin of benefactors, 

How better the world 
Would be
If only you were 
Forever thrown 
Into
The ABYSS of 
Human Condemnation!

Forgiveness Comes Last
I want your forgiveness to come last:
You often go back to a sin too fast.
I could you with soldiers grenades blast 
And later pained flag fly at half mast,
Even as onlookers are aghast;
Of the sorry news try to broadcast;
My guilt and worries soonest cast aside...

your benefactors you leave red-eyed 
As though they had for days on end cried 
Or in public staked and lost their pride 
Or spent and spent and up pockets dried....
