Winds, Trees, Me and You

A senryu for A Shero, heroes, and for POETRY's sake ---

I
sudden gusts of Fall -
green heroes fall in twos, threes
yes, trees, and you, me

II
Notice the saplings sway
With the winds ways, unbroken
Resist and old limbs fall

All Lives Matter

Raising the slogans won't make it any better. 
Dare to accept the truth, 
All lives matter. 
Does that sound better, 
Islam is the way out, 
Quran is the light out. 
Read it I promise you will later have no doubt, 
As  from it I have learned 
All lives matter.

When its Flopping Time for Floyd

When it's flopping time for Floyd,
Anywhere there is a void,
Is where you will find Floyd,
And as a dogs life is something
   Floyd cannot avoid,
It is an act of kindness by those who Love Floyd,
To avoid,
Asking Floyd,
To move to another void,
Leaving Floyd to be Floyd.

Jesus and George Floyd

Jesus was betrayed and crucified
By Judas helping the HATE (got paid in silver pieces)
Both George and Jesus had premeditated plans
To crucify them
Not by good people
Judas Iscariot and Derek Chavin
(See Brother of George Floyd testify before the US Congress)
and know why Hitler also won elections & German support

Premium Member George Floyd Rip

George Floyd RIP

A man on the floor
A boot on his neck
The foot of the law
Serve and protect

Life is snuffed out
A family will mourn
Creating a riot
A new victim's born

When will it stop?
Where is the end?
Killed by the men
Employed to defend

The colour of skin
Predicts your fate
Take off your foot
Before it’s too late

Officer - Sir, Everything Hurts - Water

He was crucified for his pedigree (I weep)
BLACK
He begged for air, then water, then food ("Please, Sir ...)
ZERO
Look at the finely-dressed "soldier" (Serve? Protect?)
SOUL-LESS
I watched the execution-turned-crucifixion, and lost my
HUNGER
But I will eat again. I will celebrate America again. So will you.
REMEMBER
why why why why WHHHYYYYYYYYY!

Repedition

Realize to recognize to many to tell.One thing for sure it was all too well.Possesion a key to this oppression. The adversary all too caring in how he fell.Into him through to them. An anomaly we see again.On the midst of confusion was corrosion.In the eyes of pestilence was repedition.
                                                                      _sky

The Needle Pushes: An Ode To the Pink Floyd Song Comfortably Numb

the needle pushes in her face 
a kiss and the wall scratches 
higher naked searching cracks
for an exit you scream soldiers
planes flash back and forth flying
a room fills with angry anxious
voices shadows growing tall
corpses rise flowers swallow
space white crosses over graves
praying mantis mothers explode
down the endless fluorescent
hall your lifted into the 
long black limo ripping worms
from your face

Premium Member Floyd Is No Martyr

Don't get me wrong.
He didn't deserve to die... like that...
Under an eight-minute nonchalant knee.
In full panic mode, crying out for his mamma.....
But he doesn't deserve a statue either.
I mean, what kind of angel holds a gun to a pregnant woman's belly?
(I wonder if her fear reached the level of his).
Please don't dumb down our real martyrs....
Leave Honest Abe alone.
After all, he took a bullet to the soul, for the cause-

On Floyd

On Floyd
Riots unleashed, arson, looting and destruction.
You officers of law mindful of your job
Are you aware of what you have done?
You judged and executed not your duty
But a human life.
Is that ‘bill’ more precious than breath
You constricted so brutally?
Were you so inhuman not to see him struggle
For his life?
You are no better than a beast
Officer of the Law.
You heard the protest of one man
Now, you have thousands screaming for your blood.
