Premium Member The Graves of Jesse James

Two empty coffins...with unknown names 
Saved for the unfortunates...of Jesse James 
Made for the men, they say...Jesse killed 
Only a matter of time, they'll both...be filled

Night's Sky

When you look up at the sky at night,
You fail to mark immediately,
The many wondrous stars there are;
Your gaze must be constant and precise,
To note the lesser sparkling ones.
So is it then, that in this world,
Of successes and unfortunates;
We still cannot see beneath the apparent,
For something intrinsically beautiful.

Premium Member The Heaven Is Still Far Away

Befiore one climbs the ladder to the heaven
One must fulfill one's promise on earth
Glitter the life on earth
Herald a meaningful life
Attend to the needy
Fair to the unfortunates
Treasures on earth are to be shared fairly
Just like the share of a place in the heaven
When you've paid on earth
Sure you'll be free in the heaven
This is what I believe

Think and Pray

If you feel and suffer
                for the unfortunates, excluded
                and wretched of this world and,
                not much materially
                can do for them
                do it :
                cry,
                pray,
                pray...!
                Much before God        
                you will be doing...!

Premium Member Singing From a Corner

I am singing 
From a corner of the house
Voice sweet or hoarse
Sentimental or having an appeal
Melody or clamor
I didn't bother
Only that I feel lost 
No one can help
People are violating
Virus are attacking 
People are sad 
People are heart broken
Somewhat a chaos
I sing to the underprivileged
I sing to the unfortunates
I sing to the Almighty for help
I can only sing 
Hoping the God will do the rest


A Vampire

The soporific sound of rain
Falling on the shingled rooftops
Induces his subconscious brain
to summon id with every drop.
The instinctual impetus
craves immediate primal need:
vitality that flows through us
tonight the innocent will bleed
to quench within a burning fire
that’s required to tame his soul
forever damned:  a vampire!
that roams and stalks celestial
darkest nights for unfortunates
to engorge their blood to excess.

Premium Member More Places To Lose

What can be done when horses don’t run on the track? Slot machines and table games bring the gamblers back. Compared to horses, casinos bring in much more money. People prefer to stay inside where it is not sunny. Racetracks all over are making the transformation. New casinos are popping up all over the nation. These are the places compulsive gamblers will choose. There are now more houses where these unfortunates will lose.

Unrequited Love Poem

Accidentally chanced upon
While browsing through a set of tomes
An unrequited love poem
Marked between the yellowed pages
Within a volume rifled through.
Thereupon, I eagerly read
The words in Edwardian script
Predated nineteen hundred six-
A sad age of class distinction- 
Where lines describe a futile love
Of two unfortunates in love
The beau from high society
His belle of notoriety
The aging ink was droplet smeared
I want to think it was from tears.
