When do we say we are happy?
When all our allies are happy?
When do we say we are peaceful?
When the Alshabab, the ISIS,
When the radical groups are peaceful.
When do we say we have conquered?
Not when our soldiers are rested to lay,
When our people lie to rest.
When do we think our leaders are lazy?
Not when Tiinga is only lazy,
But rather reasoning.
When shall our dead lie in peace?
When we ignore anniversaries,
When we stop depending on them.

I am watching liar
Go from tears to grace
With the same indistinguishable sallow face
And emotional state of fluxed empathy
The frown conceals
Beneath the brow of dirty tricks
Without a flicker
To wake's each day ever slicker
More experienced in the dark arts
His twisted seed imparts
On plundered heart's
Guilt and Shame
While he remains
In an impenetrable bubble
Distanced from the trouble
The court's denied
A jury of one's peers
From mouth to ears
In the defendants chair
And the media glare
As a lie is caught
And the jury can not be bought
Better late than never
But the Devil is clever
And he doesn't accept no as an answer
Ask his victim's
He doesn't adhere to the system
He prey's on it
As his power enabled it

All Those Wh Have Died Haiku
Have been observing
In respect for our country
All those who have died.
If it had not been
For each one of these dear souls
We would not be free.
We thank them so much
From the bottom of our heart
For all they have done.
Make sure you include
Each and everyone of them
We want to honor.
God with your glory
Please do take all them with you
To be by Your side.

In my room
air thick
I hear you hating me
outside my door
I't don't matter how I suck you
anymore
For what I was
you loved me before
you hate me now
for being your whore
