Dying Nation
Dying Nation

Anguished, frustrated
Cowering Inside,
Trapped in cobweb
Nation's life.

Disentangle, escape
Tightening grip,
Handcuffed by
Society's whip.

Hypocrats, Scandals
Stymieing progress,
Repressed opinion
Honesty undressed.

Bomb-Blast, massacres
Breaking events,
Delighted vultures
Hunger content....

Premium Member God Is Great
Lord terrorists who praise Thee as GREAT Thou hands with the innocent's blood wish to stain*









(c) Demetrios Trifiatis
          16 July 2016


*The terrorists all over the world, before each of their massacres, cry out "GOD IS GREAT " and then slaughter the innocent. What a blasphemy to commit murder in His Holy name!...

Premium Member Death To Death
. . . I stoned the lord of death to death
     we lye, now, side by side

as

effigies of who we tried to be
among countless 
revolutions
among countless 
massacres

evaporating into mixtures
of all who passed 
that day, united

beyond soils of new shoots
I, a deserter
I, a warrior 
I, a beggar
I, a zealot

with the lamb
gathering stones . . .

Fixing the World
iraq needs social sciences
those fighting the holy war need to know
massacres over your love of god is you failing your judgement day
good to know chinese proverbs hold many fortunes
to heal the many prisoners tortured
america kept pretty ignorant to the facts
of being sold genocide
walking these tight circles to find
your porn industry of kama sutra holds much sway...

Premium Member A Hoary Man
A man with a hoary haired head
From shining black to innocent white
Carrying wisdom and experiences
Is the man to live with history
Which can't be tampered and distorted
His life carries the evidences of 
Any past wars and massacres
Any past incidences and disasters
And now is our turns to become
The witnesses of the global epidemic Covid-19
Are you feeling proud or grateful 
Thanks God we've struggled through...

Counting Sheep
We persist in running again.
Eyes widened by experience, open like wounds.
Heavy jaws of ruminated
Portions.
Hallucinations of wolves and foxes and mean people,
Ripped members and massacres could
Always and never happen. Our lives
Mean nothing while living in
Tastebuds of animals and those who profit
From our meat and coarse hair.
They fade in our mind, hitherto
We persist in running,
To fleetingly feel alive....

Cnn Senryu
if bombs fall on a
far off place can CNN
make us feel the pain

woman lies about 
her color do we color
her in black and white

man massacres nine
innocent souls yet some care
more about burnt flag

Charley Cotton blames
the dead for dying because
they didn't want to kill 

a flag flies above
intolerance lives below
hate lives between them

emancipation
reshaped a nation don't fly
stars and bars no more...

Complicit Silence
They say silence gives consent.
It is true especially of a tyrant.
When people obey his evil deeds, 
And rival to please his sinful needs, 
He then parts with the human soul, 
And answers only his rapacious call.
If they keep their disgraceful silence, 
He goes beyond any viable riddance.
He is not to blame for his massacres 
As they granted him god-like powers.
It takes God to bring him down, 
And rid the people of his crown....

Life
This life is a series of massacres
not an ongoing war
an onslaught of broken words
and dreams shattering to the floor
the guns are only firing from the attacking side
in life we cannot fight back
we cannot turn the tide
sometimes life gives us good
gives us rainbows through the rain
we try to mend our broken pieces
only to watch them split again
there is nothing we can do
no hope for him or her
for life is not an ongoing war
life is a massacre...

Premium Member Save the Innocent
Carnage at churches & clubs
Mass shootings at concerts & malls
Massacres at schools & theaters
Our children walkout today
Peacefully protesting gun violence

Background checks for all
Bump stock elimination
Military weapons ban
Commonsense gun reform
What our students are fighting for

People dying needlessly
Drive-bys occurring daily
Innocents gunned down in the streets
We need gun safety taught nationwide
Rallying for the wellbeing of U.S. all...

Old Man At the Diner
Old Man At The Diner
 

He slaughters his hamburger steak
with a fork and a butter knife,
massacres ringlets of onions
again and again
 
thumps catsup all over
the bloody commingling,
then ever so slowly
peppers and salts
 
and reminds me of Hrebic,
whose wife, back
on the block of my youth,
sat all summer out on her stoop,
 
knees awry, one eye black,
the other turning gray,
sunning the great white hydrants
of her phlebitic legs.

Premium Member Hard to Stand up for What's Right
  Hard to stand up for what’s right
     when POTUS gives up on the fight

  Right away he abandoned Afghanistan
     forsaking our own soldiers to the Taliban  

  For two years he’s supplied arms to Ukraine
     but never sent what would recapture terrain

  And now he’s all-in for a Gazan permanent cease-fire            
    fueling Hamas’ ‘thousands of October 7 massacres’ desire ... 
     
   Just part of POTUS ‘ironclad Israel support’ ~ the bald-faced liar
