Thunder of Wars Waged

Can you hear?

Weeping

chorus sung

boots thump

mothers

screaming pain

fathers

smiling pride

sweethearts

promises broken

brothers

nephews

uncles

men

taken

to wage war

to keep power

in hands

of hungry

mad

old white men

penchant

dining on lies

swilling degradation

with smiles upon their lips

disdain

for generations

upon whose back

their wealth has grown

voices repressed

salient desires

hook

crook

stolen

under public noses

nothing done

til now…..

wake not to blazing skies

drone of planes a high

enemies come

discord beset

all of this

it could have been undone.

Untitled Dark Poem #1

Dead

broken

branches screeching

winds 

howling

destruction

rampant

burning cities

screams of injustice

bleeding 

cracked glass

shattered

pillars tossed

hidden beneath

glittering fools gold

bones

basement level

crypts

misted hoards

felled upon

feeds bitter death.

Night sky

orange

acrid smoke

drifting 

broken lands 

cracked

sered

oceans boiling

monsters rise from the deep

clawing

cracked maws

fetid breath

run 

crimson puddles

gleam black

footprints 

burned into concrete.

Follow 

me…..

Follow 

you….. 

Follow

Death…..
