Siege Poems - Poems about Siege

My emotions tease me at their will, Plunder my hapless intellectual world And declare a bloodless coup d’état. This undeclared war shocks my core, Grips me with a freakish fear And forces me to plunge deep within, To rein in my inner turmoil. Ceaseless kisses from my emotions Fail to hide their deep-rooted delusions With perennial problems of articulation. Hidden serpents on a rocky hill Stare...

As the last twinkle In the brown eyes of Jesus Faded to heaven The morning star left Jesus Darkness covered all The sun of the archons set The binding veil torn Those ones in the sleep of death Were awakened hence For the sun of Christ rose up Envy and dumbness Were left in the empty tombs Now they are children Of the sweet infinite light Of the sweet...

It belongs to us! But we are surrounded Let's unite against them! But massive is their power I can see chains and locks, but ignorance sets in Their colour is different from mine and so also is their weapons Of what sort are these specie of humans? In twos and threes we were chained, weeping and...

Down in the south east of Ukraine they call the Donbas region Is where the Russians were kept at bay by the Azoz battalion For three long months in Mariupol, they put up one hell of a fight Against air raids, constant bombardment and military might. Many were severely injured in battle, but they never gave in In an act...

Behold the coming of the infidel with his tanks and brigades in battledress, where once barbarians on horseback fell new destroyers hide new sin unconfessed. Now Serb boots march where invaders have trod on Muslim Srebrenica in blood thirst, but where, O tell, is their merciful God when the lords of genocide do...

THE PEOPLES' HOUSE UNDER SIEGE January 6, 2021 was a dark and sad day Like a wayward traveler had lost his way White privilege of grievance reared its ugly head The transformation of chaos left five people dead Our better angels of a reasonable people, witnessed tyranny Simply distressing that many believe in conspiracies Satan has brainwashed the weakest mind As we...

Today I'm learning the name of war refugee camps, in Congo, Rwanda, Palestine, Lebanon, Turkey, Syria, Yemen, you name it, and the children who play hide and seek in charred automobiles, shivering in cold and starvation behind the barb wires, thanking the good Samaritans clothed in peace. Today I'm signing Lennon's Imagine, imagining those children swapping their places even for a day, with your...

Acoustic shadows haunted hills and crawled within a sleepless cave where peace was whispered in a wish and silence was an endless prayer. The sound of tears dripped in the wind that carried din until it bled the last of life from hungry lips, the last of love from hopeless hearts......

SEIGE Rifle fire. Breaking glass. The hotel screams. Heart thumping against my ribs and chest, I note the shooting direction. Cops taught me that, last time. Or was it the one before? I’m up to number four. My best friend , ashen- faced, rushes towards the main entrance . No, wait, Danny, wait! But he flees, risking ...

Crest fallen try to make best of something Left lost for US no life of hope returned All like dopes obeyed the sudden shifting Alarmed adrift while pointless parody remained Wracked with joyless laughing nature cries Arrested skies attest how man abstained Under cycle siege a reign of mixed belief Advancing chaos judgement failing all disdained ...

The world is held hostage Not by terror nor by gun. But by a tiny microscopic being, Spreading its tentacle like wild fire, All over the surface of the globe. The world is held hostage, And the mighty man's heart melt like an ice, Rummaging through his repertoire of knowledge, Searching frantically for a potent weapon, To contain the ravaging enemy, Who knows no noble...

Their story haunts my memory, I'll tell it to you plain.. in the city of Sarajevo, a place war could never touch, and hope it never will again. Already thousands remain so silent under rock and clay, in fields of Saffron flowers of May, and white blanket of snow come the Winter's day. -Boško- I remember that moment you led me...
