In The Morning

(“Enemy of the State Merit Badge”, 2011, original oil)

In The Morning

In the morning the house smells
Of the sandalwood scented candle
I burned all night
In honor of a slain patriot.
I wake heart still heavy
And it just gets heavier
When the news keeps coming in
Of how much his enemies despised him
And how they gleefully celebrate now.
It’s odd to think of sane people celebrating
The murder of a kind and just and righteous, 
And may I say, pure soul.
It just goes to show where their hearts are
And where they are not.
Morning dawns on a new day
As hundreds of millions of Americans wake up
To what is now an openly declared war
Between good and evil, liberty and tyranny.
And somehow it feels like 1775
All over again.

(9/11/25)

That same, old kind of line blurs

Where does capital end

and mere terrorism begin

Rachamim

Rachamim
 (Compassion Of Mercy)
 Why do nations rage?
 Always at war in vain.
 The wicked will never stop.
 They love violence and it’s wrong.
 Under the sun, always at war.
 No care for another soul.
 What life is this?
 No victory in the blood of violence.
 It is in our nature to destroy ourselves.
 Leaders care for no one else.
 The fall of mankind.
 Burn down all the land from the inside.
 Very few people are left.
 Hope Jesus remembers me in the end.
 I want no part of this dark world.
 Always another war.
 Have compassion for those who still believe.
 Through mercy, forgive me.
 Time is like Sodom and Gomorrah.
 One day it will be all over.
 Judgment will be worse than before.
 Not water but fire.
 Raise up into the colorful sky.
 All the cities will be burning bright.

Soldier

Soldier
 They march as one as a unit
 With discipline they stand lucid
 Into battle, they are ready
 On a narrow path feel their furry
 As bullets fly by
 In combat they are brave in the sky
 With courage in green, they protect
 For we will never forget
 War is upon us all
 All four branches in the military stand tall
 In the desert there is difficulty
 On the front lines it is bloody
 With honor they protect with their lives
 Silver in hand is sharp like a knife
 For they are so far away from home
 We acknowledge the sacrifices you made, you are not alone
 Camouflage painted in green and black
 We thank our soldiers for coming back
 While the plains fly high in the sky
 Our military troops fight, we will never say goodby
 A lonely road is unforgiven
 As Americans, we will lift your burdens
 In closing I write this letter for you
 In testimony I can’t thank you enough for what you do
 Our enemies drew first blood
 With Amo and guns, we’ve all had enough
 To all those who have fallen hard
 We give back with honor a purple heart.
 It has been a long journey under the sun
 Lay down the violence for it is done

Ruining of Society

Ruining Of Society
 Earthquakes are everywhere.
 No one can be found here and there.
 A lawless society.
 With no authority.
 Vandalizing someone's property.
 No care but to destroy the environment anyway.
 An era of decay.
 The world is going insane.
 Mankind above the law.
 Just like Babylon.
 The sins of the earth.
 Burn down the flesh, remain in the dirt.
 A corrupt government.
 Everyone can see it.
 Many will suffer.
 The world is going under.
 Every man for himself.
 No food on the shelf.
 Centuries burning, what a shame.
 Nothing will ever change.
 A holy war no one can see.
 Stand by the cross, it’s all that I need

Vendetta

Vendetta
 Weall know what the word vendetta means.
 I am writing this blindly.
 Take revenge with your fist.
 Through redemption you're on the list.
 One of our own has fallen.
 Take up a sword and let the skies burn red.
 Ignite the fire from the gun smoke.
 I will put dirt on your grave with a shovel.
 Stand as one against our enemies.
 Slash the skin and watch you bleed.
 Dance around the fire.
 Wedrink into the night, I am a survivor.
 Another civil war is on the horizon.
 You better run, you know my reputation.
 Brothers stand on the front line.
 Protect our own, we fight.
 Our an-sisters fight along with us.
 Through victory we are just.
 Weare outlaws with no remorse.
 This is my journey moving forward.
 Take back what belongs to us
 Soon you will be a foot stool for my feet.
 The rage carries on.
 As a warrior, this is where I belong
On the front lines to protect

343

343
 A tragic event 24 years ago.
 A picture can say 1,000 words.
 In memory of those we lost.
 Time has passed, we have not forgotten.
 How could this happen?
 Survive and move on.
 343 and the brave.
 In honor till this day.
 A hijack in the sky.
 Two planes crash in sight.
 This will change our lives forever.
 So many worked in the Twin Towers.
 I just wanted to say thank you.
 For our firefighters that day at our Nation Capital.
 New York is home for many.
 Stand with us while the terrorist bleeds.
 Stand strong into tomorrow.
 Honor them in a memorial. (2006)
 Never forget that morning.
 Unite this country in new beginnings.
 Raise up our colors.
 Red, white and blue for our brothers.

September 11th 2001

September 11th 2001 
Terrorist Islamic  
Hijacked an airplane, suicide attack 
A day will never forget 
Two planes crashed into 
World Trade Center 
Twenty four years ago 
Twin towers collapsed 
Almost 3,000 died on 9/11 
Tevevised globally 
An invasion of Afghanistan 
War is never ending 
Destruction is 24/7 
What is the meaning of this 
Impacted changed the world 
Surrounded by smoke, gasping for air 
We lost 343 fire fighters 
Put your arms around the world 
Were always under attack 
Another war 
Heroes with blood 
Millions saw the event unfold 
Don’t forget this day 
One day, we will meet again  
In a radiant blue sky

Harvesting Love Not Hate

If you plant the seeds of love
You'll reap gorgeous flowers of love
If you spray the seeds of hate
Many plants and trees
Will blossom flowers of hate
And you won't like the fate
Nobody enjoys death and miseries
Ugly, dirty and evil flowers
And people with ill manners
Love is the answer
Hate is a toxic cancer
Be positive and make sense
All the time 
Is obviously not a crime
Violence is unacceptable
Peace is divine and preferable
Please use good common sense.

Right on the Left

  
      The left’s declared war on the right
         The right’s declared war on the left

      When they finish with each other
          In the center aught will be left

Children of the Gaza

Children of the Gaza, 
How do you strive to survive? 
Children of the Gaza, 
Why aren't your struggles amplified? 
Children of the Gaza, 
Can you hear my voice? 
Children of the Gaza,
Tell me, are you still alive? 

Young souls, being killed everyday,
"Babies aren't meant to be here", they say,
There's a horrifying, terrified sound 2 year olds make,
Hearing the sound of planes. 

Being fed water instead of milk,
Where has your baby formula been? 
Being thrown bombs over your heads,
Is this how months olds are supposed to be fed? 

Voices struck in their throats,
Bloody and hoarse,
Lost in the noise of destruction,
Panic attacks and starved stomachs.

What did they do to deserve,
To be born in the middle of the war?

LOVE IN RUSSIA

When guns sound  
Here and there on this soil,  
Souls sink like on the Titanic.  
Good news for survival—  
surfing in from the Soviets:  
an answer to WHO’s  
long-awaited question,  
a cure for killer cancer.  
Hats off, Russia

Varied are ways to suffer

As flowers for fragrance suffer,
So does brave’s blind advance suffer.

Those that Moon’s silver deem dreary,
More so, full moon romance suffer.

Some who take bold chance with their life,
Some, as they take blind chance suffer.

Life oft makes us do hopeless dance,
Some make life’s very dance suffer.  

Wooing, she starved me for one glance,
Married me by same glance suffer.

What are you doing to Prepare for The Impending Civil War?

The two sides will be: caucasians (white people) and everyone else.

It's necessary to organize to fight it or immediately to escape the country!

Foolish people are saying there have been times like this before in America but that's false. 

If you know enough about German history and how the Nazis were able to accomplish what they did within the short period of time that they operated, you would recognize the same coalescence of "power forms' occurring here today!

So . . .
