They did little to save the land


They did little to save the land
from the devastation
and desperate state of affairs.

They came and went and tried,
but no chance it had all gone well before.
And now the evidence ever so clear
man was doomed to end his life
without any form of wealth,
let alone fresh clean air.

God help them in the plundering ways
the devil has in mind,
but oh such a waste dear God
of what you so beautifully had placed
for man to endure the harshest of ways
followed always by the beauty the eye entailed.

But now by God
the devil plans to usurp us of it all.
The greedy few, the one percent
lost everything they saw
as was the way of those devilish players
into which the world only carries the burden
of what is now no more.

To take the advantage of saving
some form of space to reflect
can in fact carry weight
beyond what is thought by man.

For in this world of hardship to come
that source may be forever all man has in store.

He left me…


He left me there standing alone
in the cold and bitter night
to watch what in evidence
had happened to our Earth.

The cold and uninviting moon
shadowed by the depth of despair
rang true to me now
as I faced this world
into which I now must boon.

Who on Earth is this man
who comes to me at night
and shifts and sifts the memories of old
to which I am to have no idea.

But the way that world was to be
looked very much like a heavenly space,
one so beautifully designed
with every creature abundantly placed
and the air sweet, so sweet to smell.

I felt that in this dream this night beyond most
I had a glimpse as it was before…
Before the ravages of man and greed
spent their days in desperate ways
to end the race to be next born.

No such luck for these fellow travellers to come
and find naught to entrance and enjoy,
but loss and sorrowful past tales
of what was and is not any more.

The earth is heavily burdened


Come to me they cried.
Come to me once more
the Earth is heavily burdened.
And I am not free to assist,
but there hidden deep within
the scar of the past cried out in pain…

Shelter not you foolish child
the world of Earth needs your support.

No time for idleness and play
for here upon the ground
I see the death of man.

No more time to be at peace
while the violence on the Earth remains.

So much humiliation,
man tends to deny his greatest need
to bow before the altar of his life
given to be explored endlessly.

Oh God, the devil gone from man,
but hindered by the western greed
came back so suddenly.

And in his haste he failed to see his call –
to become a man of pride
and deny the gluttony of man’s making,
that of endless desire.

And now I come and see my place
to rid my soul of pain.
And in that task I find myself
in a more actively engaged way
to do for God the proper call …
to be respectful of all humankind.

Shadow dancer


Shadow Dancer come to me
I want to be aware of who you are
when the lights are on.

Won’t you dance a joyful tune,
a melody of bliss.
I’m so tired of weariness,
hate and hurt and mess.

Life is so bleak upon this Earth,
tragedy enormous,
wars are man’s eternal joy
and peace an after thought.

But I am sure when this year is gone
another will burst forth.
But oh the worry
as the crops die brown
and the trees no longer tall.

Whatever will then become of man –
his own forever dead trail.

Take me home to a heavenly space
away from the doom and fear.
And shadow dancer who are you,
but my own misery upon a wall so bare.

The greed-filled lane

It said to me, into the ear of inner listening and understanding, of whatever is required, at the very least one must pay attention …

Who art thou among the others wanting and desiring, wishing and praying for more, much more than is ever to be necessary to have a good and prosperous life?

I said yes, it is I, the fellow traveller on this Earth wanting and desiring, wishing and praying as any good man or woman would do where health and prosperity of life is concerned.

Do you not hear me, you silly child…
This that I am to say is about wealth beyond any fair play or kindly acts.
This that I say is beyond any reverence for life and care for the human being – that of the lowly and middle classes beyond the depths of despair.
This that I refer to is about sustenance and fair play, rightful behaviour and the consequences if that kind of behaviour is not in place – instilled. In fact, so known as to be outrageous to contend otherwise.
–
The Devil spoke in harsh reply …

Don’t you be a silly fool and listen to those enormously proud and wise ways, for that will only result in some form of hardship like having to care for your fellow man.
And that, my friend is totally unnecessary and outrageous; in itself a foolish game to play.

My way, the only way for the greedy folk as yourselves, is to wrongly play the game of life and suppress any form of conscience prick. Involve yourself foolhardy, but necessary into the greed momentum and fail as you will, drive hard as you can; nothing, yes nothing will allow you to enter the kingdom of heaven for that is quite a ridiculous myth.

The way and only way is to play the game I instilled long before your birth, well before your ancestors. Play that of the devilish, forward planning, greed escaping wrath – but wrongly to your fellow compatriots for they in themselves care so little for your well-being.
So henceforth come to me, oh yes do come my way for here I like you to do for me what the gods predict is far too dangerous in the end, for they insist that this type of behaviour will eventually drive you mad.

Well, that being said, it is far better to root yourself in the greed filled lane and drive yourself into oblivion than play God’s words and game, for that leads to a more righteous folk and these end up no differently, but for them conscience freed.
