Northern Siege

When light of day hits frigid ice, the melting rot will glare at us

history books re-calling now will tell of murderous rage.

Fake Patriots with sanctioned guns take the children raped en route

and hide their storied pain.

Our future ravaged all at once by predators and monster men

thrusting organs in our guts

wounding both from back and top.

As politician-speak is elegant, manning votes that steal our voice

we gather then to tend our wounds,

the Good and Pretti who remain.

The God forsaken in this war dethroned and wanting still

to comfort children, unveil the lies

and stir our hearts again.

Collapse

From outside in

survival props subdue the fears inside,

where life is lost in battle songs

though oft their words forgot.

Survival brain protects and stands

against, and never for.

Safe until the moon sets close-

a quiet tremor felt

hushing winds

and with the sigh

you find

the self that fell apart.

Racism

White life speeds unimpeded by lights, flashes

History on their side

Fear not pulsing

Violently staying in their lanes, views

Blind and asleep.

surveillance

thumbprints press hard

on the outer part to shape shift being

into a failed construct

facade

hiding a soul looking for the light behind

to dispel shadows and such

searching for life beyond the creep of forced ideals

into everlasting peace

Morning Moons

Lighting the path beyond,

the moon leans toward a fate larger than death,

the eastern sun bullied by looming clouds of day.

Life speaks daily in the rise and fall

hope wrapped in even the darkest morn.
