In the eyes of the World
Just of Floyd...

A Social Commentary
I just heard that Donald Trump

Is making Pink Floyd pay for the wall 

They're the ones that built it 

Seems only fair after all...

Stung
There was a beekeeper named Floyd
who had thousands of bees deployed.
He neglected their hives
a threat to their lives.
Soon thereafter Floyd became void....

Premium Member Floyd's Passions Boil
Floyd was having an affair with the soil
Something in the ground made his passions boil
   He dug a real deep hole
   Up popped a New York mole
She slapped poor Floyd ~ I'm not that kind of 'goil!'...

Sights and Sounds
Raindrops pounding the pavement
like soldiers marching to war,
dark clouds blowing by
like cars on the freeway,
the crack of thunder sounding
like a home run swing,
and a light show
better than laser Floyd....

Cousin Flo
Windy and her cousin Flo
Went down to the rodeo

The cows were walking on the moon
They hadn't seen the crack of noon

Floyd got his fiddle out
They danced the night away

I can't remember anything
I don't know what to say...

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...

My Globite School Case
My trusty chunky Globite with its rusty clunky latches, 
Its shattered battered corners and its lid worn thin with scratches, 
Pink Floyd stickers on the inside where the teachers couldn't see 'em, 
Now my dusty rusty Globite’s sitting here in a museum....

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....

Haven
A surreal love we share in written word,
Unseen a touch to reach beyond a cloud,
Emotions sailing as Floyd plays aloud,
Her beauty calls my ship to come back home,
The heart delights in what thoughts call absurd
As my wandering dreams no longer roam.

Unnamed
Love is lost within the world
Anger flares in light of misconceptions
Sadness comes and sees its flag unfurled
Feeding itself on varying perceptions

This poem was written for my by another poet. I thought to finally share it. Check out Syd Floyd for more of his poems. Afraid it has no name....

Birthday
It’s your sixty fifth birthday
Enjoy it now because
Time goes fast like a cheetah

But you’ll always have your memories
Of the things you love the most
And you’ll always love your family


These words were written by my friend Russell Floyd in 2013 for his grandmother when he was seven years old....

What Really Went On
Rumble in the jungle
Thriller in manilla
The biggest bite fight
Fights we remember


Manny Pacquaio
Robbed of points
Won or lost
Robbed on points.


The whole world knows
What really went on
Floyd may too know
What really went on.

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...

Fulla Flaws
Floyd was a fellow full of flaws,
Who flipped for females without cause,
They thought he was cute,
As long as he stayed mute,
But then he’d start jacking his jaws.

And if the lady had any doubt,
What his intentions were about,
Her doubts would soon be gone,
Cause when Floyd was turned on,
His false teeth would always fall out....

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...
