Today, I Mourn slain Beatle John Lennon

Today, I Mourn slain Beatle John Lennon
assassinated at 10:50 PM,
on December 8, 1980
forty four years later to date
outside The Dakota Apartment,
(also known as the Dakota Apartments),
located at 1 West 72nd Street
in New York City, U.S.

After Mark David Chapman
unloaded five bullets in the back
with a .38 special revolver,
that son of a gun got his quarryman
and became

slain

Sacrificial 
Love for all mankind
Agonizing pain 
Indescribable 
Nailed to ths cross

God so loved the world
that he sent his only son 
as a living sacrifice
to set us free
from sin
pierecrd for our transgressions
no words can describe such Love 
that you would die for us
so we can be free
thank you Lord
Amen

THE SLAIN SOLDIER BONE

THE SLAIN SOLDIER BONE
 
Once upon a dinner plate, there lay,
A chicken bone in a peculiar display,
Arranged like a man just so upon a plate,
Wearing a Christmas hat, looking quite elite.4

With ketchup splattered in crimson hue,
Like blood from a mischievous BBQ,
A Christmas tang tastefully satisfying,
From the festive spirit, it was not shying.8

Wow, what a view,

Widow of Slain Ricardo

For full nine months forlorn widow,
Every nine hours by window;
Men watching their every shadow,
Still hoping for her Ricardo,
Who'd promised her Eldorado,
This doing in a Choice Meadow...

Now, The Incommunicado,
Gone her main source of Bravado
And Volunteering Troubadour,
To her a Buck she to him Doe,
Ricardo, not innocent, though...

Slain for vanishing with Grang's dough

Slain Young Children

Relaxing in our comfortable seats.
declaring that it's a crying disgrace
honestly, it doesn't matter to us
further than just facts are required.
to justify all of this suffering and loss
of another heinous crime
we are refusing to look
take a step back.
as the number of victims grows.
every day

Ananais and Sapphira - Peter and Spirit

I
Spirit of God gives wisdom:
Read Acts, chapters 4 & 5
Doing charity and kicked down
Ananais & Sapphira: not alive

Peter sensed this couple, Christian
Had ignoble motives, sold land
Lied to him, they donated everything
At his feet. Scary bible study. Be warned

Noisome Dragons Slain

Sad the dark of night has fallen once again,
Rapturing the light of another splendid day
Wherein I have many noisome dragons slain.

Reintroducing me to a night of nagging pain
Beneath this quilted coverlet for solace I will lay,
Sad the dark of night has fallen once again.

I foresee the wee hours of a hot, searing chain
Tightening around my

I Shouldn'T Have Loved You the Way I Did

The sun now sheds tears,
Making the sky, less fenced
Inputting in me, strong hell
Harvesting on earth, ill sense

I was a snapping camera,
Now I am the major general
Making the problem my sitting throne
Housing with me, odious loans

I advise with great caption,
Making you believe my fake action,
And causing your heart to be well textured 
The pains now are

I Cannot Forget Trayvon Martin Slain Teen

I cannot forget Trayvon Martin - slain teen

no matter manifold more young people
unthinkingly killed, who spirits aspire
to ascend higher than a steeple.

revisited and slightly revised today
March 14th, 2021.

One deliberate shameful death,
whose demise linkedin
violent cessation of breath
thank heavy gun wielding hand
innocuous thug disguised
as armed neighborhood watch
firearm brandished
as weapon of choice.

Once again rifling thru outdated drafts,
I unwittingly

Simplicity Slain

And so the show begins
in an effort to simplify

The Voice of the Slain Black Man

Thank you, 
Mr Officer for showing me 
The devil is alive an real
Your cruelty is what makes
A Black man constantly bleed
It doesn't matter if I am raped 
Or I cant breathe
Your errors are classified as third degree
You are praised for making
A Black man bleed
This law is unjust and so unreal
'Jesus please',
This Spirit have me on

Beauty That Slain

BEAUTY THAT SLAIN
Vivacious voyage into the Azure
Heart never embark on this imaginative story
Without the consent of the body
To envision your whole, glamour and bliss
Which is a physical adorningly masterpiece
Lips sumptuous, dripping sweetness in every word
Your beauty term others odd
You could have been Miss World
But you ain't part of this world.
Like a knight I raise the

If Only I Could Soon Be Slain Again

If Only I Could Soon Be Slain Again

If only I could soon be slain again,
As first true love and she slew me.
With pure joy, from ear to ear I would grin,
We would settle down by the sea!

If only, life would not change my bold plans
And steal dearest fruit from my tree.
On white-sand beaches we would
