Who are you…


Christ came.
Christ went.
But why crucify
love’s goodness intent?

Why suffer fools idle play?
Why convert love as hate
and make little inroads
as to why in your heart
you died a deathly lament?

Who are you …
as crucified, lost, abandoned
no help in sight?

What possesses man to stray
make a marriage and children
leave and not come back?

And in this climate of turbulence
why birth anything,
least of which
is that of suffering, pain,
insidiousness and regret?

Another way


Try not to walk the life of a saviour
there is no such thing.

For a saviour imperfect
is what in man God expects.
For learning,
as with a life on earth,
where a good soul portrays
man walks and talks
the miracle of worth
in each step he/she takes –

and in that a saviour is born
into a consciousness
for all to observe
as for them too
another way – to be portrayed.

The weather bleak – the opportunity awaits


Sorry I have been out of sorts
trying to maintain the evidence
of my sincerest of reports.

The weather bleak
from where I have been
watching and waiting
for some form of evidence
to report

but what I found deep within
was a message about
how we all appear to behave
when faced by the ugliest,
gravest situation
forced to now admit
that we as others have not been
honest and forthright about what we did
and have done to those less fortunate
and in them have burdened all
by our horrendousness.

Where do I stand…


Fractured society –
Where do I stand.
The life force inside is dying
and I have lost the will to survive
in such as this the West in overdrive.

GBM

The value of my life force, that I did require
is being burnt out as I here now stand.
The value of my worth hidden
too afraid to stand out into a vile
and unpredictable worthless band.

People I thought I knew, vocal and worthy
of what they observed, considered of worth
for the worth of each man , woman and child
value and virtues worthy to uphold
about humanity and the planet,
earth required to maintain life.

How is this possible
a fracture in a society claiming in arrogance
they are exceptional and gallant
when all the time deviousness is the upper-hand?

God bless the American way of life
that the foolishness of Westernised society
claims the best for every human life.
But how devious to proclaim
while earth is shattering
under the weight of human detritus
and the value of all mankind.

Not to me …


Not to me my dear heart
not to me
for I am a shallow man
with not a lot of future
ahead of me.

I’ve searched a terrain
long and wide.
I’ve undertaken journeys
across foreign soils.
I’ve ventured far
and seen all kinds –

but none so rich
as what inside I found.

A mind abundantly rich –
wealth beyond a human (’s) scope
more about life than another did
so poetically or prose wrote.

I know, along some narrow ford
I expect a more,
much more greater reward
but what I have found
although challenging at times
has altered every view and kind.
