In reality


In reality it is far too great a mistake
not to awaken and stay awake.
You have to become aware or not
that choice is yours,
but what in the end is up to you to face?

You are all you have at hand
and in that need to take a look
and in that quagmire own and state –
no more, no more
I am prepared to stand my ground
and look at the issues facing me and mine at hand.

Exceptionalism’s dirty stain


What on earth can be said
for those exceptionalism led,
those to whom profess
capitalistic evidence is irrelevant,
but who are they when confess?

I say this,
a dirty stain is what exceptionalism is.
A tried and true mark against
those of virtue and not hate.
A mark so stained it leaves its mess
where ever that blanket of denial
is put to another war monger’s test.

So when making the plea for greed
think back on who you are
and of they, them and those
who greed fill the offshore hiding banks
with your taxes
they in fact have never had to spend.

Help we rest to understand


God bless America
the land of the free
and of course liberty,
whatever else is publicised.
For in any other colour
you of course do not, as I, recognise.
There are no such things as democracy, as liberty,
when you tie up to a band of one percent
slave making barbarians that keep you unkempt,
homeless, voiceless and treat as if spent.

God bless those who follow through
and make a stand.
For at least in some small way
help we rest to understand
that life as we are visioning on television
is not in fact reality,
but plugged in to morose and total comatose.

Invasion


Invasion is a dirty, vile and uncompromising word
used indiscriminately for what in effect is,

‘I want your goods no matter how,
so why complain and expect something in return?’

Nothing much matters for us here in the West
idly watching film and television screens
whether large or small, carried around, attached,
as if some form of viral call to alarm us
of what is to prevail,
when in fact no more than useless idle chat.

Black lives matter


Black lives matter
or white lives are irrelevant.
Without open debate
between difference,
a growth toward humanity
does not exist or can survive,
in a future of immense need,
to communicate and relate
to all peoples of different culture,
ideas, understanding and values
of worthwhile peaceful ideals.
