Poetry for Change
…
Unity needing solidarity, equality of sexes,
Races, and religious beliefs
Needs compromise, and setting of pride aside
Letting devotion to home, country, and family
Lift you above all that is petty.

The terror drives their heart beats into a drum
A drummer erasing your life and turning it into a bum.
Sirens, louder than your heart’s drum,
Blare out the need to evaluate the slum.
Run, run, run faster, faster still, jump
Into the bomb shelter for fear of being a lump
On the street, another cadaver hacked in a frump.
Blood stains the streets, cars, homes, and fields
That sustain the rebellion that fights oppressives.
In a vain attempt to eradicate the beliefs
I look around, children, women, elderly, youth,
All strewn like rag dolls, puppets on strings! Truth,
They are victims of unending war for territory of faith.
What a scam, lark, lie, brainwashing schemes,
Imposing your will on others!
Keep them weak, hungry, and hopeless,
As you stomp on their rights! Bleed them,
It’s the last foray into unknow, dread for them
Terrors testify that the drum itself is to be feared. For them
Is a way of life!
Well then, do something to end the strife!
That’s no way to live a life!

I was so excited when I got this!!!! Have you felt the same?
Mother, mother, mum, mama,
Who are you?
Are you just the giver of life?
Mom, madre, mami, mam, ma,
What would you do to protect your babe?
Legal or nefarious means?
Mother, oumi, mama, Haha, mà,
How do you love equally all your babe?
Do you prefer one over another? Why?
Mam, nanay, habibti, ema, mamma,
How do you empower all your babe?
Do you compare them and demean some?
Mami, mother, mom, love, Ema,
Love me for me! Never send me away or leave me!
Mum, mother, maman, madre, Ema,
Don’t break my heart to leave,
Don’t break my heart and hate me!
Exert from my book, Perfectly Flawed
What of the ordinary man whose livelihood
Was stolen away? What of his family? Blood,
Sweat, gore, stress, unimaginable fear
Drive his motivation to strive to survive maugre,
While he takes the brunt of the consequences of his leaders.
I’m being interviewed about my poetry book, Perfectly Flawed, live tonight between 9pm and midnight! You can hear the interview on the link below:

I hope you enjoy the book!
I’ve perhaps done a lot of things halfway,
Gave up, and moved away rather than fight the fray.
Why do we give up when home is but a minute away?
Doesn’t it’s security call to us from far away?

Jump up revive and rejoice
Life is full of constant noise
Don’t let it slip by without a voice!
Don’t let the whisper build into a noose!
Let it out, and let it boost,
Boost you into the orbit of fools!
Fools for whom life is full of drools
Laughter, and zealous pools
Of people trying not to swoon
From the pressures that life has thrown.
Jump up, rise up, and be blown
By the continuous changes that have flown,
Capture them in your heart and groom,
Tutor loved ones that life is but a broom
That sweeps away misery and doom.
Never bound by labels and hatred
Never round the increasing bend
Never be a compelled bland
A copy of a model
They all do trend
Never blend
Like a led
Downed
Bed.
