~BUTTERFLY MAGIC~
(please go to my site&click on video)
Delicate wings aflutter
Their brilliant colors
Eminate through out
The lush green forest
As I walk along the path
They follow Me in pairs
Sometimes stopping to rest
Upon the array of flowers
Then taking flight again
Their wings move in rhythm
To a Silent Song of
Butterfly Magic

One generation shall commend,
Of Your works one to another;
Declare Your mighty acts offend,
To another who’s a brother.
I speak of glorious splendor,
Of the majestic works You make;
Created lovingly tender,
I continue to meditate.
I shall speak the might of Your deeds,
And will declare Your vastness;
Catering to Creations’ needs,
With loving care and steadfastness.
I will pour forth utter the fame,
About Your abundant goodness;
I will continue to proclaim,
Sing aloud of Your righteousness.

Oh dear Lord I plea
That your death isn’t far away from me
That you’ d raise on the third day for me
Dear God I hope I would receive
Today your resurrection to me

In a minds eye
Staring at the waves
To take me away
From this melancholy
Unable to avoid seeing
My head on the chopping block.
I was driven
By desires
That couldn't be satisfied
While suggesting treaties
To banish our suffering
And bring about a state
Of unity.
But the higher court
Refused to ratify
The measure
But as you leave
Wiping your brow
Heaving a long sigh
I'm keeling over
In dramatic tones
A famished heart
For giving too much
To you
And not leaving
A crumb for myself.
For my demented love
You couldn't relate to
Nor had the patience
To wait
Until it materialized.
My spirit flagging
Not like an eagle
Soaring through
The clearest skies
Above you.
Despite the cost
And the eternal darkness
Slowly killing me
Like a plague
Couldn't pull the trigger
I may be devastated
But ain't suicidal.
No one worth
Such a selfish act
Just assumed that
Someone out there
To would welcome me
With open arms
That's what the tarot reader
Envisioned in the cards.
Whether a comeback
Comes to fruition
Or remain a rebellious student
To the intoxicating
But empty illusion
That you can make me whole.
Have to move
Cause I'm persona non grata
Back where the
Sun shines eternally
But hides a dark secret
To terrifying to uncover
Where internal beauty
Is forbidden
To be intimate?
Once healed
Maybe when we
Let time
Take the lead
I'll let you know
Why the levee broke
While gently probing
For your secret
To be revealed
That kept me
In a state of suspense
Always on the periphery
But never entrenched
In your presence.
P 11 6 25

Scum rises to the top
While the just
Fighting for breath
Still under
The belief
Respect earned
Not given freely
But the sea once pure
Now bloodied
By needless examples
Of hearts sawed in two.
Fools
Believing they were wise
Becoming the imperialists sacrifice
While perpetual nerds
Infested with artificial intelligence
Are living it up
On your dime
With no iota
There's suffering outside
A bubble
The curse of envy?
Or justified criticism?
Life inherently cheap
Built up into some grand scheme
That's gonna save humanity
Such hype
And deceit
And all these possessions
Proves
Nothing but old fashioned greed
And an arrogance
Protruding from their thick skulls
That their companion
For the evening
Returned incessant calls
For their dynamic personality
Of such depth and wonder
Not the size of their wallets.
But I'm warned
With a pistol
Gently nudged into my side
That honesty
Is a ride
To a sanitarium
Or a fall
Into a grave.
So I should stay mute
And be grateful
I'm still able
To see the dawn
And appreciate
There are still distractions
To keep me shielded
From the truth
That I'm just a puppet
On a string
With a blessing
To indulge in the
Dope of the masses
Cause a mind
Is a beautiful thing to waste.
You gotta cut corners
Cheat with a smile
Flashing
Glorious white teeth
With a heart
Of a cold blooded assassin
That knows where
All the bodies are buried.
So continue querying
For the answer
As to the meaning of life
While we continue
To inflict the disease
Of immortality on the
Sheep of this once great nation.
I'll remind you
Of the decaying flesh
At the bottom of the sea
Where noble intentions
Became sullied dreams.
There's no such thing
As an utopia
Just our nightmare
Of toxic ingenuity
That we plan on furthering
Until the skies darken
And the air inhabitable
Hasn't freedom always
Been subjective?
P 12 21 25

I´m an unrepentant Socialist
I follow the creed
From each according to his ability
To each according to his need.
Most of my life I´ve been governed
By an elitist aristocratic class
Heads firmly up in the air
Accents like cut glass.
Then recently came a variation
Of their Management story
Leadership seemed to pass
To a Middle class type of Tory
Who cracked the whip
To prove their worth
To those aristocratic
Lords Of this Earth
Who maybe would overlook
Their less elevated start
If they more than
Played their part
Coming down hard
On the working masses
While looking up
To the better classes
working hard
to ingratiate
Channelling more
To their rich mates
The most incredible part
Of this story
At the next election
The majority Voted Tory
Throwing hard earned
Workers´ Rights away.
The turkeys went and voted
For an extended Christmas Day
