Premium Member Almost Engaged

Youthful Israeli embassy couple,
almost engaged,
gunshots fired in the May DC eve,
murdered sweethearts,
hate, it never pauses,
almost had hope,
shalom to the world. ~

Premium Member Economical Woes

There’s this mellow fellow who toast, boast
      every night drunk with his host, most
      now the embassy has closed
      the high life exposed
      a hobo a bench a lamppost

When you can't relate any more
Your thoughts are out the door

No sympathy, no empathy
Stuck in a foreign embassy

Of a thought process strange
Clever shots are out of range

The drugs, the grog, the women
The warped sense of dominion

Are you stuck in my head
She said or are you dead?

She asked.

Neo Neanderthal

Culture, a vulture
Martyrs feed greed
Oil stained blood
Program a new seed
Coffins, casualties
The media loves to see
People die for county
Is there any need
 To breed a bigot creed
Put another embassy
Across the sea
In there holy tree
Hang a fantasy
Color the enemy
Skin shades of brutality
Disguised as hope
Ending of humanity

Premium Member evil empire irony

When 1953 began
Iran’s oil annexation plan
Meant seizing our stuff
But the CIA’s tough
And installed the Shah as he-man
 
Since Iran’s parliament was dead
And Muslims brutally bled
The people rebelled
But what came next spelled
By an ayatollah they’d be led 
 
When exiled the Shah became sick
The U.S. was his treatment pick
The prick of this deal
Our embassy did feel
Where the hostage taking was quick

press briefing sonnet

Press briefing sonnet

A journalist walked into an embassy
where he was killed, stripped naked, and
liquified washed into the sea that is
inviting at that time of the year
The one who gave the order is a dear guest
in the White House
In a city where thousands of homeless
People live in a painting by Gustave Klimt
was sold for millions, art made into 
commodity, packed away for no one to
See before it is resold

All Crows Congregate

The story of our past
Engulfs the future of our present
Kleidoscope lens zooms at star speed
Flames left from frozen mouth bender
As seagull glides new treetop defender

Archers of embassy packed in heat
Hips to knees the october feast glee
Breaking free to shatter time piece
All crows congregate a started belief

This next crack coincides together
Heart luminous, fleets to heaven
Chartering new age of diamond soul
Clamoring from waves that break the toll

Premium Member Happy Days Again, My Commie Friend

              
              Happy Days are here, my commie friend
                 Iran holds America hostage again

               In ’79 the embassy, now the Hormuz
                  each time Uncle Sam sports an ugly bruise

               Ah, but happy days are here, my commie friend
                   DSA's* ascendant; freedom’s gonna end
                       Only question's ~ When?

Musa's Death

An hour ago
At the embassy
Fleets of steels sighing
Protracted protocols prying
Exodus of seekers of greener pastures murmuring
Hanging hangars rusting and resting
Busy bees bullying deterioration
Officials posses with officialdom
Cabs crowing
Heads heavy with thoughts
Eyes lacerated with tears
Wives in sack-cloths
Sympathizers gulped down dry gins
As the blue bird landed from the air,
The remnant of his remains
Descended from above
Musa,
Butchered in the street of London

To My Guardian Angel In Charge

shall allow you to march
Please forgive me
Always guide thee
Help us see
Our value beneath
Through the greatness you possess
You help us to progress
Keeping us safe
You help us be brave
Our Lord Embassy
Rose from our destiny
Jesus Christ
Forged our lives
Refined us to be great
Many you have saved
Sent us from above
To deliver the world your love
You know us better than anyone else
Guard us from all else
Spread our Lord love reciprocated
Blessed the reason we were created
