Spiritual Warfare
Seduction lives on the wicked side of town
Concrete jungle with snakes lurking around
Street jesters forced to don an empty frown
Corporate hacks make deals on holy ground
Human cattle used as labor for the machine
Until artificial intelligence replaces all people
New opportunities lean toward the obscene
Wealthy beasts service him inside his steeple
New age sycophants bow to a demonic god
He’s evil incarnate in the finest designer suit
Built a kingdom with countless acts of fraud
Spiritual warfare’s a seed still producing...

civil war
silent is the way of scorn whispered on the winds a light chattering of gossip
it is the birds of the air the Gregori taking inventory of your life and commenting on it yes my dear you are quite mistaken this isn't the path for you insanity is repeating the same act hoping for different results we've seen this side of you before turning in the eternal storm hoping for his attention
hijacking the winds we're sorry we can't let you pass so flight is cancelled I will swim sideways past the undertow and reach the souls of my choosing there is an anger ever present it must be contained...

Stop the negativity
Through this cycle of life there will be some ENTITY'S hell bent, on destroying our lives and will be unofficially trying, desperately to destroy another person's life in real life times. For sure it's easy to recognize those who walk around, with nothing but negativity, pushing there own hidden agenda pushing out nothing, but pure propaganda and lies. Still trying to install a formula to poison, your mind thoughts and insight and beliefs, that they are here for you but yet It was nothing but more lies. 🤨 Yet there are those who continue to live on the plantation, still believing the...

YOUR KIMONO
In your kimono,
what man could say No
when you're stepping in,
silk upon bare skin,
so tempting to part
where it crosses heart,
exposing your charms,
then slip it off arms?
Would please samurai
who's about to die
serving the shogun,
no fear of a gun.

Training Mission South Pole
Stationed off the grid
Population under 50
CIA comrades
Hookers wearing a wire
Granola with Wild Turkey 101
Booting Heroin speedballs
A life we chose
Exile from normal
No filter
Penguin Bar after dark
No cover
Juke box takes coins only
Black night
No stars
The color of salvation
BBQ with the enemy tonight
Tomorrow is cancelled

The Greatest Generation
All those lives
All those lives
tossed into turmoil
When there was a rise in tyranny
and crimes against humanity
Many answered the call to fight for justice
Men were sent off to war
Women went off to work
All those lives
All they sacrificed
When I think of 1944
I think of the world being at war
Innocent lives being taken away
Innocent people being displaced
I think of all those young men being in faraway lands
not knowing if they would come home
I think of the mothers who...

Union 404
There once was a vast republic
that for its britches got too big
with a minority so thick...
they voted for a Jersey pig.
That pig was a demented dope
with no way that we couldn't tell
except if you abandoned hope
or got your news straight outta hell.
Dead, at two hundred and fifty,
which is what Krasnov meant to see
with MAGA being so unthrifty
in disregard for liberty!
Some ships of state, instead, are planes,
too afflicted by a gremlin
spiking headway in falsehood chains...
from a sadist in the...

Last meeting for Peace
Potatoes danced under silver umbrellas.
Always jumping screws in a replay scene.
Silk stockings flew as light as hippos...
A political party is always pure clowning.

Like I Do
I wonder if German sympathizers
ones who risked their lives
to hide Jews
felt like I do now
watching history
circle back 'round
Did compassionate colonials
feel the same
toward Native Americans
my sacred ancestors
Or benevolent individuals
for the LGBTQ+ community
with a mind wise enough
to know we don't choose
who we Love
because Love is Love
and leads only the worthy
feel like I do
Those who are different
in race, heritage
and religious...

The War of Molecules
The whirling world is war.
In the darkness the star -
Fights against strenuous gravity
To hold itself together
and not fall into event horizons
that loom - across spaces like black lights of doom.
Even within the star -
there is war -
as molecules move about in frenzies
and furore -
shifting into themselves and transforming
into new forms with new functions...
And still at war -
bursting forth – in nameless anonymities
criss crossing and drawing strange symbols
seen only by...
