WHY
guns flash folk... dead
bombing mosques... shooting...
killing innocents... why...
I'm happy to spend my day
away from the political fray
Innocents wade into that water
~ like lambs led to slaughter
perfectly pure love
exists in the minds of youth
sweetest innocents ~
expectation emerges
painful truth tests and confuses
did you ever wish to be a leaf?
that carried by the tree
soon enough falls
when you turned brownish and cold
innocents of night and morn
slaughtered innocents
lambs on an evil altar
sacrificed to hate
carnage outrages the gods
spilt blood spells out remember
For Carolyn's 9-11 contest
The guilty ones escape unscathed,
The innocents are relentlessly punished
The fools are adorned,
The wise are scorned.
Oh! Blind Justice,
Of Goddess Nemesis!!

What if I say yes to Federal SARS;
Will they ever stop seizing big cars,
Or stop killing the innocents?
Labelling it as accidents;
While flexing and dancing to guitars...
he was a Nazi
doing what he thought he should
killing innocents
without a care
when he rode his motorcycle into hell
the others shuddered
fearful of this evil soldier
For I, who have brought winter on our world,
Whose fists in bloods of innocents have curled,
Do not propose to live but for the day
That something of my past, I wash away.
several neighbors are watching
young innocents fall in love in a garden
remembering their own romantic stories
with deep sighs,
trying to capture the feelings
many had lost long ago
her silent beauty wild untouch flames
that capture me like a moth
her silent innocents inspiring dreams
of angeled voices in my ear
mirrored beyond passion
kissed between pink petals
Swords flash with a glint of lightning
Men yell with a voice of thunder
Innocents killed and become the earth
Grass turned the red of flame
Water turns to blood and food to ash
Such is war
All lifeforms are
merely temporary
inhabitants of
planet Earth.
Man's time a
millisecond hidden
in the vastness of
space
Yet innocents still
suffer needlessly
again and again
In war; No One Wins.
Teachers are supposed to be polishing gems.
But instead, are cracking the gloaming of innocents.
Judging children by their race, when all they want to do is play.
Jim Crow is cawing for souls once again.
Sharp Suited Sharks
Feeding
Fervently Feasting, Foul Fiends
Covetous Cuthroats, Cultured Convicts Convincing
Innocents Inked In Immensely Incurred Interests,
Indebted
Enslaved, Effaced Emotions, Exasperated
Weary of all the killing and death
Israelis and Palestinians hold their breath
In hopes that the one leader who heard their cries
has crafted a deal wherein no more innocents die
In a war-torn town
on a cold Christmas morn'
two children huddle close
trying to keep warm.
They have asked for no presents,
no toys of fun,
just for the gift of life
and the silence of the gun.
living by the sword -
many die by it as well
unfortunately
in their bloody wake are left
the innocents they’ve slaughtered

Mother Mary weeps for her children; her tears are soul-ambrosia.
Skirmishes and wars have taken their toll; innocents are slaughtered.
Her tears wash away the bloodstains; her guidance, gives hope.
Fury of the sea
Panic of the boat
Cry of the fishermen
Catastrophic
Is it a revenge of the fish
For the pollution of the sea
Innocent were the fishermen
Who were wrapped
In the waves
And disappeared from the sea
Defendless
Instigates trouble
Innocents bubbles within
My Daughter torments

AFRICA 2
Adoration of sunlit bold high plains
Frozen herds torn from creation’s page
Rocking tribal fears—who’s got the reins?
Innocents are hurt while tempers rage
Call for voices high and voices strong
Africans say hide when things go wrong
old men deciding
sending young to die
grandmothers crying
destroying families
killing people’s dreams
devastation
terrible horrors
sanctioned murders
innocents die
no one wins
upheaval
strife and stress
skirmish
battle
war
the assault rifles help whom exactly
fraternity of gunmen
silence from nra
the killing of innocents continues
as schools practice lockdowns
nra rules
senators vote for nra
yes yes hip hip hooray
lining their pockets with blood money
