memorial day…
This the sad state of our country. Congress could care less for the thousands who gave their lives to be where they now are.
there can be
no
doubt
that
we
walk on graves
fallen souls
beneath
our feet
sons
of
many lands
all
who died
for
one nation
but
that nation
has forgotten
not only
their
names
and
places
of
birth
but
that
deep
bone marrow
of
belief
that held them up
in
battle
when death
was
so apparent
they
would not
surrender
nor
forsake
freedom’s cause
unlike
those who walk
in
marble halls
of
congress
with
marble
so thick
that
the bones
of
the dead
cannot be felt
nor
disrupt
a traitor’s
quest
for
power
would be
that
the dead
could arise
and
once again
defend
the
why
some
chose
to
die
beyond the city lights…
At times, especially lately, it is dangerous to times when things were normal. But for many, too many, life of the past does not differ from the present. I would like to say the future holds hope of change, But I think it does.
places
hidden places
places
without names
or
ways to return to
where
the smell of spring
lingers
in uncut grass
and
meadow flowers
where breathing
was
easy
and
footsteps
fell silent
on dirt roads
sounds
heard
small birds
and
a choir
in an old
country church
hymns
from voices
that
have long passed away
to
other places
also
hidden
discrete deaths…
How many thousands have been killed in the name of God.
D0 these acts make them holy, or just murders.
rarely found
on
page one
and
almost never
listing
the names
of
those murdered
instead
a monotone
vague portrayal
of
human lives
is
presented
as if
they were
some inert
objects
that were
merely
crushed
and
should be
of
no concern
to you
but
the assassins
carried out
their heinous
deeds
saying
hallowed be thy name
your name
for
you
are society’s
holy ones
whose lives
are
to be protected
at
all costs
from those
different
from
you
whether
it be
a child
or
a pregnant woman
combatant
or
noncombatant
nothing matters
but
thy
holy name
repeatedly raped…
Someday, I hope, this will just be history.
history of degradation
denial of family rights
rejection of equality
covert systems of bondage
black life in america
mankind…
Their is life out there. Hope they are more intelligent than we think we are.
we are dead stardust
catastrophic remnants
orphans of the universe
perhaps that explains
our inhuman behaviors
