Picasso in pieces —
a puzzle, out of sorts…
a commentary slice.
the raw rooster of war,
cocked and loaded —
a worldwide death sentence.

No Searching
No searching
no searching for me
I’ll not bother for you
do not torture yourself
wounds you inflicted
on my heart
passed death sentence
on our love
forever!...

Premium Member Death Sentence For Dogs
I'm an animal lover but I never knew this.
If you love your dog never ever feed it any chocolate.
Chocolate contains a compound known as theobromine
and it is fatal to dogs nearly all of the time....

Taking Advantage of Critical Comments
Being criticized by sage
      it's totally flattering
      tremendously stimulating...
      Being criticized by ignorant,
      it's execration and cursing,
      it's almost death sentence......

Premium Member A Death Sentence
Fear less fearless, you will lose freedom;
Rejoice with real revolution;
In the atoms of a bomb 
our disturbing past blasts 
with a renewed rage;
A death sentence 
of silence 
filled with
tears....

Full,
pull,
forced,
gorged.

grammered,
wrote.

delivered,
couriered,
in cell,

Horrible Death sentence, through a kiss and a soft whisper
expert assassination by the hands of a Leper
living particles with no length
pull mega ones with their strength
accident occurring from a malfunctioning wiper....

God, where is thy hand?
Too many have died;
How many have cried,
Because of bloodshed?
Should man's innocence,
Be blessed,
With a death sentence?
I'm ready for the end,
Of needless punishment.

She Wants
....to run away.
Run away from the person she is;
The pain is suffers.
The tears she sheds.

She wants to be normal.

Someone without depression

She wants peace and serenity.

She wants a life;
         Not
          A
  death sentence....

No Death Sentence After All
To have life crumble to my dismay
But not afraid of Judgement Day!

God obviously has a plan 
For me to be a better man

Reach out to others; heal their pain
Or else life could be but vain

Satan tries to control with fear
Hope the voice of God you hear!...

Checkmate
At last the game has ended
Checkmate, I fell for you 
A pawn in your game of decit
Mercilessly sacraficed for your future queen

Falling back to reality I embrace the final blow
Loving is my sin
Heartbreak was my death sentence
Pain, my final resting place...

Death Sentence
Death sentence

Heads hang
High
With tears
Of rain
Pouring on their face.

The woven knot
Is tied around necks,
Tightening slowly
Cutting off circulation
From their brains
Down to their feet.

Feeling their pulse
Slow with a deep
Chilling demand for death....

Premium Member Crossroad Decision
Godless, I faced a crossroad decision,
I knew that I would have to choose.
Facing a situation I did not envision,
God showed me what I stood to lose.
The cancer that had my body bound,
Appeared to me as a death sentence,
And yet God chose to make me sound,
The price I paid was my repentance....

What of life? What of death? Clinical murder under investigation.
With cruel calculation, the doctor splits the fetus into sections.
A "little boy's" leg jerks reflexively, a helpless human specimen.
Dreaming of riches, she coldly mutilates, a chilling death sentence.

I’m here as observer -
watch mankind the master,
see how he treats nature.  

He has such cocksure ways.
His arrogance amaze.
But what of future days.

He thinks he’s in command
as he is oh so grand.
But I know he is damned.

I’ve seen the evidence.
Mankind has no defence.
Shall he face death sentence....

The Gavel
Cold scared
A little unprepared
Hopes lost
I’m well aware
I'de tries to move
But I don’t care
Impressive, your presence
Last meal, death sentence
Gavel rings
Destroys dreams
An angry chair
Wishes to share
Its personality
Electrifying character
Waiting arms
Tin crown
Watch your step
It’s a long way down...

Choking
Like a quivering leaf climbing
unreachable thighs of a cloud
in naked shelter of sun.

I lament the fall 
of a colossus
who would not live in a glass house.

Ash smeared on face 
a name walks on the book
of barefoot poems.

Today I am going to morph 
into a death sentence 
for an uncommitted crime.

Who had lost himself 
in unslept awakening
of a disaster ?

Premium Member Our Day Will Come With Justice
A true Irish man with proper values cut from the cloth 
not like those white elephants whom deforming the truth 
Have made a mockery out of basic humane rights 
and anyone with a morally stable brain or an ounce of wit
knows the faces of traitors claiming the harp and green 
without a backbone to hold our flag up properly 
freedom calls where our peace has been removed 
replaced by a death sentence...

Premium Member Death Row Blues
He’d spent nearly a decade on death row
Praying for appeals that were not bestowed
     Had a solid alibi
     One the courts would just not buy
A death sentence he’d have to undergo
 
DNA exam proved him no killer
But there’s a sad angle to this thriller
     Tests performed posthumously
     Executioners agree
Evidence came too late; what a chiller!

No Tears Will Come
No tears will come 
Struggling 
I pray death will send it's angels to my door
Life has no meaning without love 
Living with a broken soul is a sin 
Hell on earth ,the blazing fire burning my flesh 
No tears will come 
Death can take my soul 
No life within, life without love 
Hope has no voice to sing 
Emptiness is a death sentence 
I am in a shallow grave 
No tears will come 
Take the air from me and give me peace...
