When Poetry Was

When Poetry was beautiful
Everything was beautiful
Too beautiful to desire

When Poetry educated
Everything was amazing
Too amazing to know

When Poetry was visionary
Everything was believable
Nothing was impossible

When Poetry was political
Everything mattered
Especially knowing why

When poetry died
Humanity plummeted 
Into the abyss of technology

Rain Doesn't Fall From The Ocean

Rain doesn't fall from the ocean
Thoughts don't form in our mind
A completely true false notion
One could argue out in time

Thoughts don't form in our mind
Each is gathered as a crop
One could argue out in time
Or a thought is just a drop

Each is gathered as a crop
Thoughts harvest from the heart
Or a thought is just a drop
Ceaseless cycle of an ending start

Thoughts harvest from the heart
A completely true false notion
Ceaseless cycle of an ending start
Rain doesn't fall from the ocean

America's Real Enemy

They that usher a newness to be

From thoughts picked like California grapes & strawberries

Candidates that exceed their campaign promises

Minorities that are human

Distinction that are more sacred than laws

Truth that is less significant than compassion

Living standards divorced from living wages

A woman who can give birth

A Neo nazi and peace activist

American Red

We massacred red skins 
To kill red coats for freedom
To finish off the red skins
To pacify the red states
To defend against red ideas
To send us into the red
To wrestle red China
To a dead USA
Too bad we never saw all the beauty we missed
Too bad our rage never regressed
Too bad in the end we still couldn't confess
Too bad we deserve all that we gave
Too bad on our victims sways our chance to be saved
Too bad another will follow the path we paved
Too bad for us but freedom for others
New opportunities for children and mothers
The air will almost be able to breathe again
And water may turn back into our friend
Drones will still buzz for decades to follow 
But perhaps silos will finally be hollow

The Beauti Of Sorrow

Beauti of sorrow
vast as the sea
eve of the morrow
inner expanse of me

conceptually multiplied
virtually personified
politically religified
perceptually cubified

Beatui of sorrow
vast as the sea
eve of the morrow
inner expanse of me

life is a beauty
living our prize
to share them our duty*
effects all our lives*
