I'M Free
He was a prisoner of war
Four years as an abductee
When they turned him loose one day
He yelled, "I'm free, I'm free, I'm Free!"
A boy standing next to a tree
Had never seen, such a thing before
He said, "So what, I'm already four!"...

P.O.W.
(This is a fictional poem)
I.m in Vietnam and I'm a prisoner of war.
Regaining my freedom is the only thing I have to live for.
I don't know what day it is or even what year.
How old am I? How long have I been here?
They keep me in a filthy cage and it's very crude.
I'm starving, they give me very little food.
Sometimes I want to die and get it over with.
If I can't be free, I don't want to live....

Trespass - Dedicated To My Rapist, Ach
You have died a thousand deaths since the day you invaded the gentle, passive
meadows in which I walk upon.
You thrust your evil hand on my pristine petals, eroding the beauty that once lay in
your view.
You ravaged the garden of peace, and left it a field of complacency.
You congratulated yourself for the prisoner of war you conquered, but I have won
because my Oleander petals will ensure your demise....

Casualty of War
The stench of gasoline and gore
permeated the encampment.
I am a prisoner of war
And I’m held in a stinking tent
that I share with a gun toting
taliban soldier. His black eyes
staring intently and gloating
as though I were a trophy prize
whose head would soon hang on a stick
for all his turbaned insurgents
to pelt with stones and broken bricks.
I expect his malevolent
Nature to vent with certainty
which translates: it’s curtains for me!...

Wind-Chill Factor
I felt the southern heat in my younger childhood YEARS.
And I also felt Chicago wind-chills that brought me to TEARS.
And I felt being held captive like a prisoner of WAR whose
blood-stained body lies tortured beneath the evening STAR.
Icy winds and driven snow besieged every fiber of my BEING.
And I often shivered in pain, being prevented from SEEING.
As the chilly wind-chill factor dropped far below ZERO, I
would pray and plea for God to hasten and send me a HERO.
