Peace On Earth

Dissidents claim they must reform
The life we accept as the "norm" 
As Mother Earth said,
"Until you are dead
Peace lies in the eye of the storm!"

Arrest To Rest

In the formation of the word arrest 
There is err up side down 
It’s cause for arrest and to end rest 
Either it’s to rest in prison
Or else to reform in rest of his life

Spirituality

True spirituality is feeling 
and believing even not seeing
not experiencing, making mistakes,
but persevere believing and evolving,
 In the continuous effort for intimate reform ...!

Come Here

COME here
find your peace
that desired
Lay your head
upon my shoulder
Release your pain
Fret not the moment
It is yours and only yours
Rebirth and reform

Forbidden Love

I've counted the days this time.
Dear, 
I'm not that person surely here, 
I fear, how sorry I'm for! but

because I love, love a sporadic bird.

Solo Uno

If one person remembers …
a legacy yet

If one person remembers
old feelings reset

If one person remembers
the words to reform 

If one person remembers
—tomorrow reborn

Big Riot Beginning To Form

Big Riot Beginning To Form

Sure has started out as one heck of a storm,
With all attention that is given to tax reform;
Enough for now;
Get by somehow,
While outside big riot was beginning to form.

Dreamy echoes fascinate
Giraffes heighten inclines

Tax Reform

If it does not require
People like Donald Trump
And corporations
Like General Electric
To pay Taxes to support
Operation of the federal
Government of the USA
Then it is NOT, "Tax Reform"
It is just "Fake News"!

A Pirate Named Fred

There was a one-eyed pirate named Fred
Who wanted to reform and get wed
The wench who took his measure
Had got used to the treasure
So she shivered his timbers instead

Song 19

How well I spent the weekend fair
  And tasted the rivers form,
Until the morning of Sunday bliss
  Ended with Monday's reform.

With laughing mind, I departed
  And tossed my love aside,
Went back into hiding
  And with society I complied.

Premium Member Literary Giant

His Victorian times were in need of reform. 
He wrote of orphans out in a storm
With no fleece coats to keep them warm,
And a miserable miser counting his gold.
Charles Dickens' topics were true and bold.

The Big Bloat

The Big Bloat

It’s Not as easy 
As you know
Food is legal 
And can get
It to go
I find myself
In the same 
Bloat
We eat when 
Hungry
Or in a
Deep mote 
But...
As hard 
As it is 
To dig out
The rut
We all can 
Do it
And have
A good
Gut

Premium Member He Left Her a Poem

On the streets of the tent-city
   the lad grew up fast
Crime, drugs and vice
   How long could he last

A rich heiress had pity
   took him into her home
Too late to reform him
   He left her this poem:

   HIV bug
   Grave dug
   Cry not
     ~ I rot

Reform

I used to be carved out of marble
I used to take a chisel and hammer
To my useless pieces, and break them off
But over time, the empty spaces
Overshadowed the solid frame of me
I have run out of material to shape
I am no longer marble, I am
Bone white shards swept under the rug
