Two Minutes

Two Minutes

The birds in the churches don’t know,
why the people have gathered.

The leaves fluttering around don’t know,
why their eyes are glazed over.

The younglings, confused, don’t know,
why wreaths are centered.

The wrinkled faces.
The ones who do know,
must wish they didn’t.

The Blue Planet

The Blue Planet

In a world of blue hue,
trespassers were found guilty.
Nature bloomed and boomed.
Outsiders: money-crazed.

Eywa their provider,
Forever enthralled with life’s energy.

Now they seem pure,
My soul is bound by all its lure.

Power, religion

Power, religion

We’ve been through this before.

I might not have been around, but I cry.

I cry about those lost souls,

Raped by their race,

Mistreated by their religion,

Murdered by their dictators,

I cry for all those who robbed them of their self-respect, their hope.

They sucked them dry leaving them without a whole soul.

Why are we dealing with these same issues again?

Have we learned nothing?

Power.

Religion.

While we spit in the face of humanity with our own hate.

Inspired sigh

Harsh words; the more, the stronger you’ll get.

Bravery doesn’t come in a battle; luck does,

to which you've made it alive but dead inside.

Love speeches inspire art.

Dictators try to rule; overruled by rules.

Last world- - confused people. Struggle, it’s this!

My page, I’m stuck in this chapter. How will it end?
Will it end? Today?

Our ambitions turn to dreams;

our goals into miracles.

Pregnant War

A heart shaped kiss,

In a world gone bliss.

I hold thy hand,

Walk with me in sand.

Glowing, howling, deceivers of hate.

Such powers were too late,

Mistreated, naked and bruised.

You said no when they made you choose.

Your heart grew cold,

When your soul was sold.

Cold how? Your body numb.

Oh no… They gave you some.

Dead. Left here so beautiful, powerful.

Traces.

Faces.

Careless now.

Loneliness how?

He left your body but took your soul.

For he thought somehow to make you once more whole.
