   They plant two kisses on each other's cheeks

If a dangerous murderer repent and regret,
His punishment  will be reduced by a half, 
And  will be chopped off only half  villain's head !...

cause they don't like the words painted on our signs,
"Stop Detonating Love Bombs
In the Middle East!".
But I suppose that will be all that's left
when everyone dies for this
enigmatic War for Peace....

watching the US & its NATO buddies
beat the middle east senseless 
until it get its way, 
is like watching kids show up on the playground 
with semi-automatics,
when the few that they are gonna fight
have a couple of switchblades 
between them....

A universal sign of peace
Is there one to see
Has there ever been universal peace
Even at the end of The Great War
There was war in the Middle East and Russia
I suppose the question may be
When will there be universal peace.

Boldly soldier shemaghed scarf
Ammo railed full masked buff

Middle East catwalked explosions
Judge clowned judgement of jud

Little girl drank a cup of wuff
Beloved siblings danced a lot of goof

Bang bang bang forever prank
Clang clang clang coffins emerged...

Young men, 
Women and children,
Fleeting their land,
A war destroying their country,
An enemy they can’t seem to understand, 
“we are freeing you from your leader’s tyranny,
slaughtering you all is a war causality...”
On embers and ashes 
an empire of democracy shall be built,
Oh... The irony....

Drought dry walk for life
Mother stumbles weak
Babe clutched close at heart
Unrevivable
Life taken today

Family walks
Survival now
No grief today
Must find some food

Infant weak
Medical
Care needed

Dry wind
Grim hope
Death!!

Pray for the drought stricken people in Africa and the middle east....

   George W. Bush, so much maligned
   for the economic collapse of 2008-09 

     Yet would that we today had his outstanding Secretaries of State
     Colin Powell or Condoleeza Rice handling the M-E would be first-rate

Eyes which have seen sorrow 
    shall now taste 
the wine of life!
    Feel the soft echoes 
of an ancient time 
  in the familiar melodies 
      from the Middle East 
Let it be known to you that you
  can escape 
incessant urban struggle for money and power 
    for one evening and the day following 
Peace - Shalom - Peace...

As it Is

We are right, we know we are
Our history tells us so as do our. 
Forefathers 

Therefore you must be wrong 
Although you insist your history 
Tells you otherwise.

The place of righteousness is
Bleak, less we venture to see
We shall fail to understand.

How two rights can exist 
Side by side where common 
Humanity  can prevail....

‘We stand by the dead
We support the displaced
We succor the disabled
We serve the deprived’

But who will tame the Rogue Ztate?
Who will knock with the Mosaic Punch?
Who will arrest the savage Thug?
Who will pull their below rug?

While the civilized world
Boils in this soup
Who will stir the pot
To injustice stop?...

ah...the fm radios old rock
and classical stations be
my mind for the day...

then...the news cast echoes
of the dark shadows of
an all out war over...

the...whole middle east with
real possibilities that it
may include use...

of...the nuclear weaponry from
many different sources for
profits and or power...
