Pride worth everything
Beauty couldn’t be matched
Strength here to stay
Isn’t it enough? No, they say
insisting, brethren I fight
for their utter delight
to my absolute disgust
their vanity persists
they fight their own in cages
to whom’s entertainment I wonder
humanity surrenders
to its perverse lust for amusement
beauty unparalleled
life extraordinary
still, sadness in soul
passions on dole
need a beautiful dream
with strawberries cream
to make you smile
for the next long mile
in life
Walk across meadow
Not even my shadow
Would like to accompany
I and my sins only
Lonely
Green, blue,
which shade are you
I am spring,
all colours I bring
I am pretty mad,
in dark pink purple red
Not too distant in the future past
earth became flat, at last
the end and the beginning could be seen
and all that is, in between,
Too much weight on either side
It will tilt, break, or just divide
Sapiens have to think new rules
learn survival skills, old fools
fighting, war, greed and lust
leave everything if living must
balance earth’s weight all around
animals, forests, water and mounds
best brains worked day and night
at last, a solution was in sight
Cities moved thousand miles each side
counted, measured, every wave every tide
No cast, creed or money worth a lot
Together ploughed away, without a thought
Humanity survived this colossal task
United, they can achieve any big ask
Nature should have made earth flat at inception
would have saved Sapiens from all death and deception
Memories that vibrant image brings
Flute I hear, a soprano sings
Your hand, pink palms, slowly spread
Touching, disappearing in the blood red
Caressing produce, wide eyes stare
heart seduced, mind strips, soul bares
Summer dress, glowing sunflower bloom
Years have passed, all deep dark gloom
slowing traversing these same streets
where I was kissed, had innumerable treats
always ended up looking rather lost
Time erasing recollections fast
Keep searching, past forgotten ghosts
those wonderful arms, that beautiful host
of merriment, ecstasy and joy of soul
Life without you, a great big hole
Will it pay, some day
my eyes will see justice
effort rewards, revolution starts
and poor will have their say
Sea of green,
Hard work unseen
Dripping sweat
Effort great
What is grown
What is sown
Never drunk
Never sunk
To those dry lips
Tired, nearly broken hips
Arrival of thousand ships
For places afar, to sail away
With million bags of tea
On the mighty sea
In few days, weeks be
Adorned in a beautiful pack
Delicacy sack, expensive rack
Newest fad, buyers glad
Stamp says, ‘fair trade’
from all that, money made
who benefits, who is screwed
whose children sleep without food
While you admire
the crockery, with utmost glee
along with your afternoon tea
True love, more than once
More than one at once
How true it has to be
for you two and me
are there degrees of fact
how much lies we could mix
and still keep true love intact
can we pretend no lust
is involved, and love has evolved
and two partners can trust
perhaps you are thinking too much
we are two, and always pensive
of course it is a bit much
for your tiny little brain
don’t worry, we will only
destroy you, take all you have
make you lonely
and then leave, our true love
Hiding from what is known,
eyes closed to apparent, shown,
Intelligence on a loan,
no changes to routine,
will end up penniless and alone
