Rebellious Converts

Convert! Said the Spanish conquistadors.
They were more violent than the Moors.
We put on our mask.
And did what they asked.
Pretending to believe in their Christian lores.

Discover America

Discover America
Come all aboard
We’re sailing to freedom
Like all those before

Leif Erikson, Columbus 
Then CONQUISTADORS!!!!
They came, they saw
But noticed NO door

Discover America 
Like all those before
It’s yours for the taking
Ignore the border

Politics Part 2

Corporate wealth sought
by Labour czar conquistadors
scourge wealth
the have-nots will prevail
30,000  measly votes for a standing Labour MP

the enthusiasm for them is underwhelming
without PR we are shorn of democracy
sleepwalked into a Labour majority
Apathy is their achilles heel
belief flounders
when Reform were second
in 100 seats

The Conundrum of Adam

Listen to poem:
The Conundrum of Adam
David J Walker

Having forgone my claims 
On sainthood 

I stand naked for all of
Nature to see

I am Adam and the 
Part of me that is Eve is

Missing and may be 
Reclaimed only in 
permissive sin

and contrary to reports
the purport of my innocence 
is exaggerated

I am a willing sinner
Unaware of snakes or apples

Unable to remember 
The words of God

Only the odd meaning of the
Conundrum resonates

Vagabond Conquistadors

Listen to poem:
Vagabond Conquistadors
David J Walker

Having wept
	And slept
At the bottom of the canyon
I’ve become the climber 
	Of mountains

Where I may see for myself
	The residents of the clouds
And find that 
It is a lonely place
	Unaccustomed to the resonances 
Of habitation as

It moves on
Without the vagabond 
conquistadors
Claiming clouds 
in the name of Christ

I have flown and fallen twice
For the believers of fables who  
Know only what the hear on Earth
