that carried by the tree
soon enough falls
when you turned brownish and cold
innocents of night and morn...

Slaughtered Innocents
slaughtered innocents
lambs on an evil altar
sacrificed to hate
carnage outrages the gods
spilt blood spells out remember

Oh! Nemesis!!
The guilty ones escape unscathed,
The innocents are relentlessly punished
The fools are adorned,
The wise are scorned.
Oh! Blind Justice,
Of Goddess Nemesis!!...

No To Federal Sars
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......

Silent Is Beautiful
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...

Truth of War
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...

Premium Member No One Wins
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....

Premium Member When Jim Crow Goes Hunting For Gems
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 to play.
Jim crow is cawing for souls once again....

Premium Member Innocents
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

Premium Member The Innocents
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...
