The Angry and Swearing PoemTarget via advertising
Stupid firms and stupid brands
Because such generalizing
Does require intercept
For the influence of moron
For the psyches thus offense
Does perform defense the function
Very real thus defense
Maxwell color wheel invention
Wasn't meant for purpose this
Any act will have redemption
Suck it activism for peace
Hex my wheel is much more nicer
Isn't purposed for the firms
Neither chips or...

THE PRIMAL WHIRLWINDA clash between two atoms.
An explosion — the Big Bang.
And so it began: with an eruption.
A cry of fire.
A chaotic dance of matter.
A beginning born of rupture.
How could it have been otherwise,
when creation itself began with conflict?
And here we are—
millions of years later—
on a planet of conflict.
A whirlwind of forces,
an endless struggle between people,
between ideas,
between...

Armed Conflict Law
Armed Cyber Conflict Law
Is mepping your logic floor
This president is a bore
His reasoning for the war
You don’t want to stand for
For that with the funds in offshore
The needs of the state or the nation
Do not exist in isolation
THUS foundation we set for
For new Armed Conflict Cyber Law
Perhaps such care for the nation
May be arranged as...

Egregiously Misplaced Mercy
When you force Mr. Zelinsky
to feed the Putineers who’ve bulldozed Ukraine.
That’s when I’ll pressure Israel
to give Hamas’ Gazastanis more grain

took a bullet in my braintook a bullet in my brain
no refrain
no restrain
in a war I feel the pain
war is horrible for both sides
there is no place for us to hide
death or glory? You are kidding right?
so many lay dead on that first night
where’s the glory in killing so many young?
horrible reality, where’s the fun?
I’ll never again fully see the...

Pope Leo XIVA Cry to the Vicar of Christ
On the eighth of May—
in the year the world was wounded—
white smoke rose,
and the Spirit whispered:
Leo XIV.
Not a crown,
but a cross.
Not glory—
but Gethsemane.
Go now,
Holy Father,
to Gaza,
where God bleeds quietly
under shattered mosques.
A child cries without sound.
A mother digs without grave.
Hope is ash.
Peace is myth.
And still—
your hands are clean.
Go to the...

The UK was never innocent just cowardlyThe uk is guilty too
Stop hiding behind America
You were involved too
It's time for you to take the stand
Reveal the blood on your hands
Accountability is calling your name
America can't take all the blame
When it was them who followed your lead
Joining the slave trade from your influence
Don't hide behind black American history...

Just ThisForce that turns glass shards to mists
and causes girders to bend and twist
flesh and bone cannot resist
nor mortal word can console this
pushed to the brink
with blotted ink
the buttons pressed
have secret links
to battles pitched
it might seem rich
for ribbon bars
as spirits lift
the bodies stiff
a cheek to kiss
for some they dare
not lift the lid
an endless list
of...

ANSWERING A WARRING QUESTION
ANSWERING A WARRING QUESTION
Why must there always be war?
Can peace not be without war?
Yes, but with less money:
Leaving power mongers
Less oppressive over
Poor you and me:-

To the White Rose of Germany , In memory of Sophie Scholl and the White Rose resistance group
In halls where silence cloaked the dread,
You raised a voice, though fear had spread.
With leaflets fluttering like doves in flight,
You lit a candle in the night.
Not with guns, nor iron might,
But truth and courage, fierce and bright.
A rose in winter, pure and still,
Defying hate with steadfast will.
Your words, like whispers through the air,
Asked hearts to...

Modern Concentration Stamps for QueryModern Concentration Stamps For Query
Heights of subtly decide the best points for invention
Delights of brevity decide the next poetic composition
Insights of entropy reside and then collide in patient comprehension
Conspicuous engagements of the outspoken looking for transparent attention
Ridiculous derangement of the broken ones that should have been all about prevention
Ambiguous retainment of...
