Short Tracers Poems

Million dollar fireworks light up 
the eastern sky

leaving red tracers between broken homes
and marking the rank of ordered followers

blackened by the smoke of oil money
smoldering
and a dream deferred
in the cradle of life...

Visions unendurable
Thoughts not erasable
Tracers of red
Running through my heard

Yellow smoke for the dust off
Brings tears
Death and destruction
Memories of loss

Haunting images
Ghosts haunting me
Blood on my hands
Unable to clean

Youth destroyed
By war
Hate and anger
Unknown to me

Until The War

Tribute To All Veterans on
Veterans Day...

Spinning out of control...
Like a child,
Never feeling...
Dizzy
Cant see...
Through the fog
Gears & Cogs
Turning...
Broken... record
Screaming
Unheard
Time...
Not enough
The road ahead is looking rough.
The webs & string
Holding
Everything... together 
Tiny spiders in my head
Am I leading or am I being lead?
Spinning...
Watching the Stars
Turn into tracers...
Take the Shot! No need for chasers...
Dizzy...
Cant see...
The path in front of me
Has turned blurry....

Just let me win ten grand
I could piece my life back together
And still vacation on the sand
I could hold out for a good job
Take care of my daughters like before
Maybe even fix the dent
In my mercury tracers door
I could be the best santa claus ever
(my house burnt down last x-mas eve)
A christmas they'd remember forever
A few extra grand would help acheive
During my holliday season
What will surely make me weep
If you truly can't buy happiness
Then why is misery so damn cheap...
