inks on fire: random sketches 05
war and reason
all the broken pieces
“He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you,
but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” Micah 6:8
the implements of war
leave their unsightly scar
where reason, taken to the test,
would kill the guns that spar
but instruments of peace
can human hearts release
to bond the broken cords of love
with binding elbowgrease
life is a transient day
fleetingly swept away
justice, mercy, humility: ...

Birds of Prey
Drones in the sky,
Like hawks on the fly,
They circle and wait,
For their next kill.
They see all and hear all,
They know where you fall,
They strike when you least expect it,
And they never give a damn.
They show no emotion,
No mercy, no notion,
Of the lives that they take and destroy,
They're just another weapon of war.
Soldiers below,
They have nowhere to go,
They're helpless and hopeless and lost,
They're just another target to hit.
They live in fear,
They shed many tears, ...

U-2- Not the band.
The temper of the world is crisis.
Contained,through crisis,
grinding missiles like paper mache.
A raging fire blooms,in plain view.
Should we be frightened?
One man. One plane. National outrage.
The U-2, Not the band,incident.
Is history repeating itself?

The city was busy but I noticed most of the citizens were women
The architecture and designs were a sight and pleasing to the eye
It was a metropolis of the future, technology and nature in balance
A far more advanced society here had been able to strive and survive
But as I walked through some blocks I got stares from the ladies
Men were being cat called, I guessed the roles here were reversed
Then I remembered something Beta-2 had mentioned in our talk
“The dreams we have are flashes from lives in another...

My Views 11
No righteous person would be a politician or a supporter of politics.
All earthly governments are in fact satanic organizations.
The heartless political leaders of the world are possessed by demons.
Satan is the father of kings and queens and other statespersons.
Honest people do not dominate, enslave and oppress other human beings.
You must be a wicked person to be a police or a soldier.
An upright person with decency cannot stay in the armed forces.
If they cannot corrupt you, they will get rid of you one way or another.

Ballad Of A Boy Soldier
Come find me in the morning
when the battle is done
for i will be dead
no matter which side has won
Was it the night
that stole the light from my eyes?
or simply mans nature
that the boy in us must die
There are no winners in war
this I know to be true
standing victorious
but still losing you
The fight it was simple
and fair, well that’s hard to say
only the strongest survive
to build a new day
I won’t be amongst them
for dead I will be
and the man that stands beside you...

a deadly heritage
"I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity."
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
i was a soldier in the war
and now i give massages
i wore grenades and tools that mar
but now i wear corsages
the battlefront was hot as hell
and blood spilled out like water
now at the homefront where i dwell
my days are filled with laughter
my trembling wife abhorred the thought
i'd be her brave, dead hero ...

ONE OF "THE FEW"
He's one "the Few"
who's still in view,
though not seen a lot
as when they were "hot"
in poster appeal
and wartime newsreel,
for part they did play
in keeping away
attempts to invade -
rained off Goering's parade
that might have been staged
had we become caged
with the occupied
lands in Europe wide.
His medals are the
signs of past glory,
though at great risk earned -
so many crashed, burned
quite literally,
even lost in sea.
Older age has claimed ...
