Short Subjugation Poems

From the ivory heights of heaven
I am catapulted down
To the bottom side of Nothing
Where envy gilds my crown—
Separation, subjugation,
Force my frantic frown....

Bread of slavery -- and liberation
    Bread of freedom -- and subjugation

  Consider the Matzo: It's flavor-less and flat

Religions survive
  through subjugation

Without it,
  they are lost

Wielding guilt as a weapon,
  they proffer salvation

Enlightenment and freedom
  —their cost

Edifice, 
ones temple for his breath;
Pervasive force to guide until death!
Threadbare be thy mind;
Inclement in bind.
O so such-subjugation on one’s flesh,
Is like being cut up with still mesh.

Time is resolutely in motion
       In no captivity or subjugation

Let not the caravan of life halt
Love is a journey not a destination

A beckoning charmer,
Desire’s erogenous Flower
gratifies homage.
I justly kneel… 
Love must now obey
Pleasure’s quest ridden subjugation
till unchaste voracious waves, xenogenous, yield zealotry.

The absence of copula, 
black and white to and fro,
Pidgins broke the rules.

Yu spik a long tang,
ol rul mas stop, Braddah.

Into colonial subjugation,
Pidgin has no future, stalemate.
Falls under freedom of slavery,
let's have an interracial,
the bukkake of licentia poetica....

Memories of the South

spanish moss shimmers
slave ghosts of days long gone by
hanging from the trees

stain on Old Glory
dark time of subjugation
when man enslaved man

memories forever
then bodies, now gray moss hangs
tears, blood darken roots

Knowledge, freedom, acceptance
Ignorance, subjugation, resistance
The extremes of our existence

Caring, loving, devotion
Insensitivity, hate, revulsion
The extremes of our emotion

Faith, repentance, salvation
Disbelief, narcissism, damnation
The extremes of our creation

Heaven on earth seems to be so unfriendly
because of the pandemic’s subjugation!
Life is trapped in the quicksand of poverty;
unable to get up through any motion!
The rough road is trodden in difficulty;
but the end of plague is on the horizon!
So sufferance only makes the spirit firm;
letting soul have the strong hope in the long term!...

Whispers of serenity and freedom,
A chance to belong in God's kingdom,
Society freed from suffering and injustice,
Equality reigns, free from all subjugation,

A peaceful world for all to thrive,
Wars for control and resources hold no more meaning,
Rebirth of pure and civilized societies,
Poverty disappears, humanity redefined through equality.....

God is dead but no one knows
as they continue their ridiculous shows.
Everyone wants a piece of Him
but always deny him with each whim.
We kill and dishonor in His name
and the game always remains the same.
Money, power and subjugation
fuels the Godless in every nation.
One day there will be a full accounting
for on every evil the devil is counting....

Man shoulder that burden,
you are a beast,
here is my whip,
but where is your back,
you tire now so soon,
remember the days,
when I had my say,
got you to work,
in the worst of murk,
Now you are timourous,
and a rebel,
it is there in your eyes,
to a multiple of a treble,
tone it down,
and recognize yourself,
you are my beast,
to say the least....

To bring you back 
To subjugation
    In order to
Render and ammed 
    To thee
           So, let
The riches' of thy heart
The King or King's
    Our sole salvation
The guardian of the light
Surround God's people
With glory and might
          -----'
So, let the Sprit reveal ye
Take solace every-day
Let the Spirit move ye
As ye kneel
     And as ye pray

Social issues affects many people from all walks of life. 
A nation of destruction from past to present days from addictions, excess bank fees, church burnings and shootings, Covid 19, human trafficking, famine,, food shortages, childhood traumas, mental illness, no affordable housing, homelessness are the results of causes and effects of social issues beyond one’s control....

Feature cannot function
Humanity one more level
Yet all is unseen
The problems dwell

Partial gesticulation
Fungi never grow tall
Subjugation kicks in
Avenging the tall

An eye cannot lighten
An ear indifferent to all
A cranium starved of brain
A tongue talks it all

The skin appeals stain
A nose cannot repel
The grime & unclean!
Entire entity just a scandal....

Twisted fantasy, a morbid fascination 
Always wondering about other's disposition
A case of coprophilia, dipped in deep fanaticism 
Engulfed in shadows of bigotic fascism 

It is like a puppet made to move by manipulation 
A dull tool that is used for other's subjugation 
A master maligner, witness to false event 
It shows like a lamb, but in truth, a serpent

Start with an obscure form of poetry,
a female role in Shakespeare comedy
to find yourself in gender politics.

With changeling, colonial politics
mask anonymity in poetry
add subjugation into comedy

To mix sixteenth century comedy
with twenty-first century politics
without doubt produces bad poetry

Poetry comedy and politics

In Religion born, immortality supplication 

Foolish of mind, venerate the decadent and rich 

Materialism bounds purpose to subjugation  

Governments intent satin stitch


Hypocrisy’s compassion

Devotion in profit

Discontent, humanity’s ration

History the incessant  prophet 


 Contrary of law, justice

Loves whisper, illusion

Salvations road, oneness 

Attainment not, forgone conclusion...

Subjugation
listen to 
all the cheering 
the internal seething 
external hissing 
the breathing the bleeding,
the beating 
and weeping
eternally bleating 
Is supposed to be 
you said, ordained 
requiring a mark
and you are marked
whipped mindless,
senseless
Cowed into believing
in ancient lamentations
but didn't you know
when silence crawls, 
this is
Subjugation,
it's unconditional
consensual
sweet pain...

My home on native land
I stole that from a T-shirt
Gotta give credit
Where credit is due 

Canada 'eh
Kanata
Iroquois for settlement or village
And here's where I slip in pillage
Pardon my digression
Subjugation segregation
And bad first impression

Gotta give credit where credit is due
I remember being proud of a beret in blue

Here again we are standing against
the wall of silence,
time has made us partners of sorrow.
Merchants of terror have spread their
wares
on the road. I was only a name.

Hundreds of miles fear was darting
no body knows who will become unfaithful.
Prayer demands subjugation.

Life sucks the laughter, we want to 
go back to childhood,
shut the eyes and recite the hymns of
history,
when prophets were roaming in 
neighbourhood.

Citizens Prerogative

In this clime of ours,
citizens right is an illusion,
the subjugation leaves a dent.

Our legs wobble with weakness,
our lungs go dry with thirst,
Dreams bleached in graves.

From one mendacious tale to another,
It's a cycle of everyday struggles, 
and there's no end in sight.

Amid sighs and sobs,
amid groans and tears,
we pray for light and hope.

Where freedoms boulevard
will be crystal clear and
citizens right upheld....

                  ~Freedom~


                       Free
             
              Choices, thoughts
      
   Working, worshipping, celebrating

        Yours to choose or to lose

             Mobs, herds, violence

                  Sadness, injury
   
                     Subjugation
