When the gods created the world
When the gods sat down and made the world,
And saw just how their plans unfurled,
As humans created civilisation,
They rose and left in sheer frustration....

Europe
Europe 
That sad decaying corpse 
Of western civilisation 
In the final throes 
Of cultural suicide...

On the Moon of Rwanda
It begins as a melt
On the Moon of Rwanda
It ends on the Delta of Civilisation

Offer Him a Raise
“‘Civilisation shall stand in the dock
And answer for her ways!
My poesie binds her
The Guardian of my new age!’
‘How say ye now, Sir?'”
“I say, Call up the Person from Porlock
And offer him a raise.”...

A Revolutionary

and that is the machine 
of the world today

it need a mechanic

Street Cred
Houses on parade
Guards to civilisation
A great divide between man and space
Escapism opposed to reality

Sentinels stand at either end of street
Neighbourhood watch
Dangerous tongues gossip
Prepare for another onslaught...

If I Was a Farmer
If I was a farmer, 
I’d cherish what we’d achieved 
Throughout ten thousand years
Towns, cities built on our sweat
Civilisation itself conceived
Yet fertile ground for ill thought fears.

  EVOLUTION 

              Analytic rationalisation.
              Ongoing progress of civilisation.
               on scientific realisation :
              That's the Theory of Evolution. 
               Blind process on Natural Selection.

Where To Die
where to die...
and death to the noise
hell of this iron bird.

and to the woods...
there i was really
dead, dead to civilisation

and alive to the laughing tress
to the singing of the flesh birds
there the air with hands
like juliet makes me sleep...

where am i.
not again in......

Digits
digits
insanity in civilisation
can never be separated
from our dreams nowadays

always we need to achieve
still our achievements is
never enough 
in a world of no humanity

where human are just 
mere numbers 
always fighting too
hard only to 
achieve in every way 
just mere high 
digits...

squarish watermelons
dogs eating lions
small fish eating big fish
watermelons grown squarish
bombing tunnels is third world war
blind obedience to next level state
is causing mass civil killings in long war
like broken stars,broken earth may discontinue
sun orbit
it is supranova explosion
it is end of civilisation 
it is universal death

Blood Soaked Pages
Civilisation down through the ages

Written their history in blood soaked pages

Blood of the innocent

Blood of the meek

Savage and brutal

They always seek

Power and greed they're predictable

Their lust for war and death is insatiable

They've written their history in blood and shame

All in the name of power, greed and fame....

In the Now Being Taken
in the order of establishment
and the movement of individual freedom..........
we cannot wait to be freed....yet have to find the inside need 
to see the motions accompanying nothingness are the gates to your inner mind. 

We find ourselves so comforted by civilisation..........society, norms & acceptance...
that we lose what defines the deeper innner psyche.........

....each different to another...

A Legend
Thousands of years before history
when civilisation began,
there lived an intelligent race of people
who could be the ancestors of man,
their knowledge was far superior
to anything we know now,
and everything we have achieved
is because they have shown us how,
they lived in a place called Atlantis
I'm told by a reliable source,
but you really don't have to believe it
for it's only a legend of course....

This life of work is a running red line.
Why do we drive so fast and eager into the night.
We build our life then sell our soul.
Nobody tells us what we don’t know?

This civilisation, this wonder, this majesty.
We lose our own sight of what we could be.

We dream of cares that we don’t have.
We strive for something but don’t know what or why

This life is strange and through guilt we see; forever wanting more to be....

Silence Is Going Beyond
Silence is going beyond
Day by day,
Keep yourself alive
You may realise, nature does say.
Forest goes, comes village,
And then towns come,
No peace of silence
In depression, will come to you
As a soothing balm.
Civilisation, with greed
Of human being, does so,
Too much for it,
Some soft people against, though
Would make no difference
In the run of life,
If we suppress our greed
Near future would a least better thrive....

De Amore Versus Odium
ON LOVE VERSUS HATE

There is but one truth. 
Its name is love; 
It is the foundation of civilisation.
Love fears nothing; 
Yet without hate, the heart cannot cope.
Love and hate dies….sometimes 
They are both beyond the cycle of the outset and the demise of emotions.
They are powerful and formidable. 

Love  realises kindness
Hate is the beginning of upheaval; 
Both are true in their concept 
Through the ages, they were always there!...
