lad
the world is all good
except 
for the bad

just a fad
for the past 
ten thousand years
and a tad

how sad
how bad
human nature
not a fad?...

Ten thousand years in time
Before his claim may be denied....

If a skylark flies ten thousand 
feet 
above the uncaring world
Has not that lark ten thousand 
feet,
faster with every whirl,
To fall 
and smash in pieces on the 
ground....

My follicles falling to my sorrow,
Ten thousand dollars to my surgeon,
Some people think I might be splurgin', 
But I can't wait for my new hair to grow....

Mail Call
Ten thousand years at sea in a star-ship’s dome
I sail the galaxy, I scribble letters home.

And fifty thousand years pass before I learn
Earth-folks’ loyal tears weep for my return....

Bloody Children
All those times

Mouths of different

History of war,

Mistrust,

Insecurity.

Ten thousand years

Excuses for killing,

Mocking,

Insecurity.


The Stupid's brethren,

Bloody children....

Ten thousand hooves and horns on the Devil's run

If I Was a Farmer
If I was a farmer, 
I’d cherish what we’d achieved 
Throughout ten thousand years
Towns, cities built on our sweat
Civilisation itself conceived
Yet fertile ground for ill thought fears.
