There Is No Peace

There Is No Peace

Many proclaim they only want peace;
but peace can never be found;
what they really want is to appease;
it has a more calming sound.

Our lives are governed by many illusions;
we trust that most have goodwill;
truth has history to prove its conclusions;

The Reticence Of Tyranny

The Reticence Of Tyranny

We find many ways to face all we must;
especially, a future, many can’t see;
while living in a kingdom of evil’s lust;
we face a reticence of tyranny.

Storm clouds gathering; gaining steam;
life isn’t at all what we planned;
in birth;

Chasing Sleep

Chasing Sleep

I feel tired; so completely exhausted;
tho my thoughts continue to speak;

I had been lonely from sorrows and war;

The Impact Of Lies

Is there ever a good reason to tell a lie;

It’s purpose is obvious; to one and all;
any lie is an effort to deceive;
false pride

Sour Cream

Sour Cream

It’s said that cream rises to the top;
oh how I wish it were true;
world leadership needs a new crop;
Lord, won’t you come through.

The so-called cream has turned sour;
only fools desire to reign;
prospects grow worse by the hour;
cream has gone
