Next Year, In the Movie Titles, To Any Feature Film

Next year, in the movie titles, to any Feature Film,

" No animals were eaten, maimed or killed,
And there was no sexual harassment of any actor!"

World of Warlords

Created animosities
scattered hearts
in the fields and streets,
broken wires...
maimed
the disillusioned roots
shape lives
now empty
reconciled lives
no direction and right route...
reality created by
warlords !

Tragedy

They invaded you,
On your sick bed,
They maimed you,
Dismantled you,
Turned off life support,
Switched off oxygen,
Left you lifeless,
And walked away,
To buy you casket,
No a coffin,
With three sides...

Pale

The distrust inflames me
A tainted image 
An angel fallen into the flames
How could he?
He stained my fantasy
Stabbed my trust
Maimed my dreams
And now all i have are ashes of what could have been
A dream killed too soon.

Effigy

build me an effigy
red brick stone
one brick alone
a tear
a sorrow
a wall
built to contain
a soul maimed
build me a pyre
gold covered relief
a smooth curved bowl
made to hold my soul
set it afire
with belief (c)mjr 2007

True Story

TRUE  STORY  

He  was sweet and wanted her  to have his son
She felt he could indeed be the one
He  waited for the day to be named
She was hit by a bus  and maimed 
Legs horribly  mangled beyond repair
He left her in selfish despair

Afghanistan ~ "dumb Support"?

Maimed support undone,
the battle won ~
is still that tyranny's succumb
mates jeopardy with truth, upon the run!

Prowess protects more than
the "rule of thumb"!
Support not my position's drum,
If I am able . . . and yet still dumb!

Premium Member Something Unique

Something unique to the United States; children are getting murdered in schoolrooms. Innocent kids maimed and slaughtered, by crazed classmates brandishing guns. And moms cry; pleading for gun control laws, that'll never pass.

Premium Member Reminiscing Sadly At This Sight

None can guess the darkening pain
Dull and aching it is
Emotive and locomotive
It keeps me never at ease

Disease to rhyme with universe
When ready it is to cry
Maimed at the mere sight
Of evil, winning as the spy!

In His Name

Thousand of miles away he came.
Salvation of souls to proclaim.


Silver nor gold, not his aim.
But our lost glory to reclaim.


How powerful is his name?!
The lame and maimed walked in his name.


A creator born king, with his fame,
on the tree, bore his creature's shame.

Premium Member Black Friday

I won’t shop Black Friday
because I’m not ready
to fend for my life
in a scene rough and heady.

So call me a coward!
You won’t see me fight ‘em,
and risk getting maimed
for a much-desired item.

Eternal Timber

The Cross is our crutch: we are lamed and maimed,
Crippling sin in our soul,
Defiled and scourged, our faith defamed,
Golgotha our gloried goal.

The Cross is a bludgeon for smiting down
Death in his sable gown.
It’s Roman-hewn and Jesus-borne,
Encircled with blood-flecked thorn.

The Enigma of Hitler

Who?What?How?
He was Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
The German expressionist
So badly maimed was he during his artists life
That he emerged as Hitler in1938
He overheard the Gods talking
About a world without sexually depraved humans
And creator and hater became
Destroyer and lover
of Kali.

Premium Member Limerick: An Invasion By the Maimed, Tamed and the Lame

Limerick: An Invasion by the Maimed, Tamed and the Lame

An invasion by the Maimed, Tamed and the Lame
Is still an invasion by any other name
     “She stoops to conquer!”
      Hearths freeze in fire
Better life for theirs is the name of the game.

Savage Hands

They traced the boundaries
And split the minds
A savage then bellowed
Come hold my hand
Loyalties maimed
Even the gods' they cried
Grace just scattered
For the tears to dry
Will these contours
Just blur and conjoin
When hearts doth speak
Shatter thoughts so weak --

What have we done to our blue skies what have we done to our land neglectful beings that we are we abused the works of His doting hand What made us think that we were Kings in a Kingdom not quite ours with Mother Nature maimed we're paupers, living on counted hours

Across Ticks of Losing

Menaced by a triumphant chanting of lament
Entrancing the soul of Hades’ kin
Missed eruptions of the sensory nerves
Onomatopoeic of hollow gongs 
Resonating, maimed through the indescribable facets of
Your  forgotten youth.

Hands

These hands mend minds and massage maimed muscles  
These hands protect the powerless providing strength to suffering souls
These hands rarely rest, they’d rather
Save sinners souls from flinty fires
Carry cold welcoming waters toward the thirsty
Fetch food for famished fellows
These hands are always here

Death Uniforms Blue and White Stripes Cleanliness Godliness Slam

The uniformity of death

Blue and White

Fattened out with pin stripes

Until they did not resemble 

A single shred of humanity

A ghost in all but name

Shamed and maimed

Dead behind the eye's and soul

Destined for the showers

Where cleanliness,
Is next to godliness

Meant exactly that

Last Act

I loved her sorrows.
We shared a mask
that we spoke through -
a mail-box for wordless hungers.

Passion maimed us,
even I shed tears sensing
a Puccini last act.

She read herself in my face;
I gave her long-range forecasts.

She endured –
desperately believing
that I would always be there
to mop up.
