Premium MemberI see, much confusion '

I see..The struggle; the decision May 
fourteen ninteen forty eight.' Truman
Recognises Isreal I would have too.' The
Next day Arab armies attack, and are beaten back.' A fledgling State fighting to
Survive, yes i am for that.' Yet I am not for
The slaughter i see today, upon their neighbours, I am against all war especially wars to obtain others land..
How does humanity, mess it up so much?
Is it there to call in Jesus.? Is it academic
To argue this or that position.? I am
highly perplexed, and even more eager
For peace thsn before.)


Premium MemberThe Abandoned

The draft-dodgers who fled and even more
Deserters who abandoned their posts
These are the real heroes of war
They’ve paid their personal costs
Their names will never be known
No obelisks will be erected
Their very existence will be forlorn
Otherwise scorned and rejected 
They knew they would be slandered
But by saving their own lives,
They gave the answer to their offenders
Let’s flee, despite of being despised
It’s a senseless slaughter for false ideals
Of politicians with high morality 
To whom people’s lives aren’t a big deal
Who dream about their own immortality 
Let their faithful armchair analysts snap 
They never fight wars only talk a lot 
Patriotism fits well with a nap 
One snore away from the hot spot.

Premium MemberTell Me Saint Michael

When someone says, "(S)he's a saint", 
I think of peace and restraint, 
but when it's time for battle paint,
tell me, Saint Michael,
must we hide from sight?

Truth and justice, we must protect - 
those things, both good and correct. 
So, I ask, with all respect, 
tell me, Saint Michael, 
sometimes, must we fight?

And what to do if Man divides - 
sometimes there are at least two sides. 
As to where the truth resides,
tell me, Saint Michael, 
who decides what's right?

Premium MemberYou Have Celebrated '

Celebratiions are over, calibrations must
 start' 
trumps in office, the wars continue in fits and starts..God said they will celebrate peace and safety, then will come the end..
It could be amost upon us.? But i can't see farther than the next bend.)

Premium MemberPax

At the end 
there are no sides,
we walk in peace
to a place of calm
that land beyond the sun,
it matters not who won or lost
when all is said and done


Premium MemberRemembrance Day

I remember, 
  Lestweforget, 
And the phrase: 
  Between the wars, 
Said during: 
  Times of peace.

TRUTH BE TOLD: SIMPLE, YET PROFOUND 

It’s not about peace;
It’s about evil power:
That is what war is:-

ABANDONING WAR FOR PEACE: A SCRIPTURAL PERSPECTIVE  

Remember and be encouraged by the blessed scriptures:
“And let the peace that comes from Christ rule…your hearts.
For as members of one body, you are called to live in peace…”
Likewise, in thanksgiving prayer, also be forever inspired
In knowing “God blesses those who…[labor]...for peace,
For they will be called the…[blessed]...children of God.”

Premium MemberStained Glass Window

All that was left were remnants
of shattered memories ~ emblazoned
      in my mind,
as if it was all still there,
when Sunday salvation was
at peace with the sun
and sermons of love were
     bled in glass...
now shards on the chapel floor,
and, like sand castles on the shore
were washed away in an angry tide
where waning life stained the sand
     crimson red...
and lead was rained in bullets,
not to frame etherial light.

Sacrifice has an ambience of more
   than just ~ pretty colors...

Premium MemberA FREEFLOW APATHETIC INVESTMENT: AN ALLEGORY MOMENT

A FREEFLOW APATHETIC INVESTMENT: AN ALLEGORY MOMENT

Know that today’s war is
A real power mongering,
Money-making investment:
Mudering innocence lives, 
A part of the bloody returns:-
Ironically, to ignore this investment,
Is a moneyless investment itself.
However, the return is abject hypocrisy:-
And so-called “legal murdering”,
Of defenseless human beings,
Is of little concern for us
Beings who declare we
Are for human equity,
Freedom, justice,
And democracy:-
How long will we wallow
In the mockery of such beliefs?!
Come on now, let’s evoke peace
And get to depressing today’s war:
Icing out heated political muderings:-

Premium MemberWe Pray for Peace, We Get War


               Each of us prays for peace
                  All we get is war
               What the H do we keep praying for

               Let’s try praying for war
                   Perhaps we’ll get peace
               At least ~ the chances might increase

IN THE TRINITY OF IT ALL   

War fruits crucifies…
Love fruits resurrect in peace…
Oneness, ascends us…

Premium MemberPain

“Pain”
I’ve had enough.
I’ve seen enough.
My bucket is full.

Little lost boys. 
Little girls raped.
The guns never stop.

Mothers grieve.
Fathers bury.
Neighbors’ morn.

We write of it.
We sing of it.
We pray it ends.

Nations at war.
Lives destroyed.
Destruction surrounds.

Are we insane?
The pain it brings,
Over and over,
Again and again.

In midnight dreams,
On sweat-drenched sheets, 
No joy is found,
As life struggles on.

Is this the way
It's supposed to be,
No smiling faces
On living room walls?

Is this the way it ends?
Are we insane?
I don’t understand.

Premium MemberA Pope And Hope

A Pope Brings forth hope But a kaiser Spews hate and horror A Pope Spreads peace In the north, south, west and east But a prideful mope like a squalid dope Spits horrors and terrors And starts fights and wars A peaceful person de-escalates But a belligerent bully booms, inflates And explodes like a lost missile Which acts like a cussed imbecile A real leader Never follows an oppressor Yet a follower is a master loser Who lies about everything Even when the sun is shining A Pope Offers love and hope But a loser displays no compassion No sympathy and no comprehension.
