Acidic Flash
Inside all war there lies conspiracy
There's nothing to believe but lies
Raging fires on the innocent
While the dead watch from the skies
They take the blind man to the killing field
To play in someone else's game
Let the lesser lands be torn apart
And bring them here to bear the shame
Acidic Flash
Burns my eyes
Acidic Flash
Buried Alive
Severed spirits hanging in the wind
Tear the truth apart from lies
A sordid effigy of past mistakes
Their heroism lost in time
They send...
There's nothing to believe but lies

They take the blind man to the killing field

Acidic Flash

Lineal Descent
We are our Bubbies'
granddaughters—
tribal survivors
Never again
will we be imprisoned—
beaten, owned, or raped
But, fight to the death
for our God-given right—
to live as women

From before to the now
From the deepness of the truth, that it shall reveal the real makings of a new, frontier of hope and dreams and endless possibilities. 🙏 For sure we can slowly see a new horizon, that once was hidden behind the darkness of thick clouds. Changing as it has done more harm than good, yet it is soon coming over the world. 🌍 YET it's for the betterment of mankind and humanity, for gone is the unnecessary feelings of hatred and discrimination of negativity, bought on by the devil's 👿 in human skin. For sure we stand here as one nation under GOD. 🙏 ALMIGHTY and the...

in the stellar dawning, bleed
suffering the inhumanity of humanity
it hurts to feel this much
flooded with information not said
would it piss you off to know I can read what you really mean
behind the lying smile meant to disarm me, I see
in my vow I remain stoic
I will not succumb to the bitterness of rejection
it is an infection passed around so some can feel superior
I don't need your disease
head check yourself if you think I'm wrong
it's the ego inflated talking
I strike at the pus so you may be free
in the cold dark believe this, you are...

Dial Portugal 1944
Under the cloak of neutrality,
Portugal, land of ancient navigators,
watched the world in calamity,
in the silence of their own fears.
Salazar, with his iron hand,
kept the war out the door,
but the echo of the conflict was sincere,
and in the gloom, hope was dead.
The Tagus reflected the moonlight
while spies danced in Lisbon.
War, a shadow that continues
in the story that memory sings.
Tungsten fueled the economy,
dark business in dark times.
Neutrality was a utopia
or a game between several...

grandad's war ..
grandad never talked
about what he did
during the war
but after the war,
when he thought the police
were no longer
interested ..

The Real War With The Sleeping Giant
I know there is a war between Russia since the invasion of Ukraine’s territory, however, America needs to pay more close attention to the sleeping Dragon, which is China.
Can you imagine the commence we share with that country and how much in our GNP befalls the financial stock that China holds in America and in surrounding other continents, from raping the natural mineral resources from continents in Africa such divisions as Zambia, Tanzania, and Mozambique.
Precious minerals used for your everyday usage, like the cell phone technical properties, the mechanical...

Vampires
We hear the gunfire off in the distance
We find ourself picking up pace in that direction
No more than filth covered skeletons trekking through the jungle
War harden with dead men eyes looking for the next skirmish
We know our positions and the way that we each move
The natural predators here give us a wide girth
For they have all agreed this is man's war
They have agreed to come together as one and clean up the battlefields
But for now and from afar they watch as we kill
They don't understand it, because we are defying the...

They Sleep Unaware of the Clarion Call
in foreign fields they rested
where past dreams echoes
they sleep unaware of the clarion call
that no more pierce the silent sleepers
they fell responding to their duty
defend the nation from perceived enemies
they understood and accepted their fate
when they heed the call to arms
under the field of crosses
the sons and daughters so loved
were identified only by their name
carved on the crosses
their names testified to their bravery
they were the living walls
against the oncoming enemies
