All that is and all that was

By and by
It draws near
the songs unwritten
unspoken thoughts
solace in downfall
skin-deep it runs
I shiver at the thought
Under those fears of freezing
The frost bitten left hand
And no wings to save
A gentle touch isn’t as gentle as it was
Let that touch be lost
Reality sodomizes
Downfall flashes
Another man would want a branch
To catch as he falls
Don’t need no twig
And yet that fall bogs down
Aren’t we all stardust
One 1000th of a soul
Images and imagery
The laughing stock
Better than a slaughtered peacock?
It’s a cigarette that brings
The burning thoughts
The trembling legs
That last filter drops
And
Reality leaves with a 100 buck unclaimed on the bed
Frost bitten finger burns
Irony of it all
No conclusion to this song
Only smoke that disappears with dawn

Sneaking "into" those windows

Even as you face your past ,
As windows bring back to you familiar light , familiar darkness
As desires then unfulfilled are no longer so
And promises to oneself seem a mix of show
the glamour of innocence that lead to those promises
insecurities that led to lieing in the mirror
I look up , proud as I fly , I break those walls of false shine
the glass shards fall , and as they disappear
the sun shines on them , reminds me of the challenges to face
those dreams seem to be realised now
those insecurities lessened
Honesty forever is a turn on

Even Sadness can sing

A painting I made that inspired me to write this poem

 When the sky isn't blue enough
The air suffocates you
This sadness is not something to weep over
For when has anyone ever wept over emptiness
What is this void , tell me more
It makes me crazy , saddened to all folks
They ask me , what is the matter
But all I do is nod and say
Just let me be , just let me be , I pray
Oh! what beauty ,
oh! what light Its alas! all so very bright
But ask me and I would nod
Ask I from myself and I would avoid
For sometimes there are secrets that no confidant can share
Secrets that make you weep and make you glare
But uff!! just let it be
Who is gonna hear my appeal
For no sad man can ever appeal
All he can do is pray
But pray he must
Pray he must
Else even his loneliness is going to leave him lonesome
Grieved ,aghast and gloom-some.

peace is a bird not captured but called

The world war 1 struck in august
Bringing devastation to every soul
The trauma ended in september
But ,did it bring peace to the soul
Peace is a bird not capture but called
But it will not come if tension , stress, greed and religion remain above all.

The world war 2 struck and was taken to be an economic loss
But will the loss be more than the loss of the world the loss of peace
Will the pounds lost be more than the children orphaned,
ill the dollars spent be more than the raped daughters,

Will the gold spent be more than the children slaughtered,
Peace is a bird not captured but called
But it will not come if tension , stress , greed and religion remain above all.

America fought vietnam to stop spread of communism
Vietnam fought for soveriegnity against a world nation
Newspapers roared "killing of billions"
But doesl the term "billions" express the loss of

The "billons" scandalised,
The "billions" kidnaped,
The "billons" made homeless-helpless-refugees,
No for are eyes are open only for greed of thyself,
Our hands ready to take the life of everyone else,
Our thinking primitive our behaviour inhumane,
Peace is a Bird not captured but called
But it will not come if tension , stress ,greed and religion remain above all.

December brought the america iraq bomber
December brought the hunger, loss , and misery to children
Caught was Saddam
But what was its cost
Wake up call not of mother but that of an nuclear bomber,
PLace of living not houses but prisons,
Workhouses and orphanages replacind hospitals,
The tolerance power is receeding the greed increasing,
Peace is a bird not captured but called,
But it will not come if tension, stress ,greed and religion remain above all

There is no date to tell when it started
There is no reason why it started
Arab-Palestine war is but a league of death that has yet not ended
Are jews better than muslims or muslims better than jews
Whatever the debate is
Is it worth the loss of families,
Is it worth the destruction of two civilizations,
Is it worth the spread of nuclear diseases among children or
Is it worth the death of even a single person,
Peace is a bird not captured but called

But it will not come if tension , strEss , greed and religion remain above all.

If an eye for an eye rule is followed
The whole world will turn blind
Territory is no reason for war
Greed is responsible for it
Religion is no reason for war
Superiority complex is responsible for it
Peace is not the abscence of war
Peace is the presence of humanity tolerance and sanity
