Red, White And Black Blues
The white man stole their land
now the red man has the blues
the white man sold their families
and the black man's still ill-used
the white man shot the American buffalo
now the red man sings the blues
the white man put their people in chains
and the black man's grief accrues
the white house is to blame
the Government just the same

No Treaty
No treaty is negotiable with the eager viral assassin.
Doubt the truth of gossip. What’s sadder than the unreasonable sucker?
Tribal outcries and worldly conceits are not impenetrable refuges.
May you all be sheltered and safe and may modern alchemy protect you.
May you have what you need and be happy.
We will rise or fall together.

The Treaty of Love
THEY SPOKE TO NEGATE THE THOUGHT
HE WISHED FOR TOGETHERNESS
SHE WISHED TO OWN HIS HEART
NEITHER HEARD WHAT THE OTHER HAD SAID
THEY SOUGHT ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
THAT WENT OVER THEIR HEAD
MOST WISHED THEM TO BE TOGETHER
SOME WANTED THEM TO BE APART
THEY KNEW THESE THINGS FROM THE VERY START
THEY HEARD A TALE OF A MAN
HE UNDERSTOOD WHAT THEY NEEDED

The Biscuit Treaty
The biscuit treaty
Ranting is what we do best
He thinks he’s right, but I am
With angry jibes we begin
Snippets of lashed tongue
Whip their way across the room
Pulling on his trigger
Fired bullets retaliate
Injured, still undefeated
I ponder my position
Another attack invoked
Flicker of realisation
Is there a need to endure
Realising stamina’s gone
The point is simply advised
On both sides for that

I Dreamt of a Treaty With Trieste
I dreamt of a treaty with Trieste,
but it was to get my mind off something else -
the Brexit.
In the treaty all would be good,
and I would have hols in Trieste
twice a year.
Do I take my bucket there and spade?
Do they have sand in
the city of Trieste?
Actually, I've just fallen in the sand.
Brexit's come to pass
and

Treaty With Destiny
I wish I could sign a treaty,
With my destiny,
'To make you mine forever'
I would give away everything, I had ever!
Living with you was most important,
As rest everything was insignificant !

A Lasting Treaty
Wars cause only destruction and death
leaving behind scenes gloomier than itself:
bloody bodies strewn on dry leaves,
while the jubilant king falls to his knees...
thanking God who has brought him victory,
but then looking at his hands he ponders with asperity.
" I have built a kingdom by demanding loyalty,
accumulated a huge army allowing stealing and killing;
but none of

Treaty of Waitangi
In 1840 the Treaty of Waitangi was signed,
from then to now the government can't hide,
freedom the Maori wanted, from oppressing minds
but what they got was almost cultural genocide.
First to go was the land,
next was the language suppressed by force,
legislation wrote favored only one man,
the marriage they talk of was now a divorce.
In 1980 Maori

Sneaky, Treaty, Now Not So Meaty
There once was a Ninja so sneaky
He broke their mercenary treaty
For he turned on his own
Because greed was his bone
His skeleton is now not so meaty
Now let this be a lesson to all
Be upstanding and honour your call
Like the Ninja has fared
No sneaks can be spared
If you do it, your never to fall

The Treaty of the Voracious
Utopian only in the eyes of the incipient yet vastly virtuous inverse commanding
leagues of the damned. Unbound in a secular disposition it rots, the treaty of the
voracious. A reciprocal nexus lapsing into a grave valor. Inter-dimensional seals torn
asunder for control. Looping utopia, learning untold evil.
