Injustice
What is injustice
Do we really know
Or is it trust us
Just go with the flow
The flow of slavery
Was the cry
Requiring bravery
Resulting in many to die
A Civil War
Many killed
On Americas shore
The Union fulfilled
A mighty victory
Freeing the slaves
Lincolns valedictory
Following him to the grave
Abortion a cry today
Millions killed before they are born
A legal fray
America torn
Do unborn have rights
Or they live beings
Shining living lights
With thoughts and feelings
Many do not think so
But they thought that long ago
Slaves had no ability to grow
Grow their intelligence past Jim Crow
Unable to vote
Unable to own
Unable to integrate
Unable to relate
But they were alive
And they were given birth
A dream to strive
On this earth
But not the aborted
Never given a chance
Their lives thwarted
Before given a chance to dance
Dance with breath
Dance with a cry
Dance with a hug
Dance with a kiss
Why
Why do they not matter
Abortion is a lie
It is not a womans right
A baby in the womb
Is a God given life
Give the unborn a chance to bloom
And end this strife
Seek the justice
A living human being deserves
Our consciousness should confront us
And upset our nerves
Our nerves need to tingle
And know what is true
A fetus is a living human
Just like me and you

Atrocities
Mankind is inhuman and cruel We do not listen and obey The earth is a precious jewel And we have thrown it away Murders abound Since the time of Cain and Abel Just look around And watch your cable Every single day Someone is slain People do as they may Causing so much pain Watch the same news And war is widespread Always a lit burning fuse So many massacred and dead Add in disease And more are extinguished Buckling us to our knees No one is distinguished Disease will find you Where ever you may be Covid or the flu You can not hide or flee At least your alive Living a life of plenty Just look at the archive Many lives are not worth a penny Some are malnourished Some are exploited Some are enslaved Some are aborted They are existing For a period of time Most are not resisting It is not a crime Abortion is legal To kill a child But not an eagle Abortion needs to be reviled How about the famished Throughout the globe Their needs have vanished As we launch space probes Spending billions To go into space Wasting trillions For a space race Race to where Race to make the cut Race to be fair Race to what What is a human life worth How much do we spend To save all humans on earth Will this neglect ever end Why do we not realize This is not what God intended Can you not hear the cries Are you not offended
Alive
Alive
You are alive
Animated
A beehive
Exhilarated
Look at your face
You smile shines
Not a trace
Of worldly confines
Exciting
Titillating
Breathtaking
Electrifying
You captivate a room
So bubbly and fresh
A flower in bloom
Beaming outside your flesh
Everyone notices
They are drawn to your energy
Simply dazzling and amazes
Special mysterious alchemy
Your charm
Your power
Your presence
Your attractiveness
Everyone wants you
To steal your vigor
Because they are blue
Playing a fool and poor actor
You are spontaneous
So alive in your spirit
Your harmonious
With this grand merit
I want it too
Since I was fifteen
Constantly trying to renew
Feelings for a girl at fourteen
I have my chance
To suck her marrow
Maybe by happenstance
But I have climbed the plateau
And I am not coming down
To be a mere mortal
I am on here playground
And I too will be adorable
Who Is She
Who Is She
Happy
Gay
Enthusiastic
Optimistic
She is a lightening beam
Her own liturgy
I can only dream
So full.of energy
Why is she alone
No one has claimed her
She is not owned
By a mister or sir
Probably her choice
She is strong
With her own voice
She knows right from wrong
She wants a companion
Just like me
Who will not abandon
An attentive attendee
To life
To grief
To celebration
To sorrow
She wants comfort
So do I
She want to be unhurt
And not cry
She wants gaiety
She wants merriment
She wants playfulness
She wants levity
We all want this
We do much research
Along with a kiss
And we search and search
Giving up hope
This person will never be found
And I am no dope
To catch someone on the rebound
Please God give me a chance
To find love and contentment
Along with romance
And adornment”
Shift
Shift
Left to right
Forward and back
Dark to bright
Run to tack
There are many ways to go
And I must change
Do not go with the flow
I must turn the page
Leave Jackson
Do not be shocked
Viking or saxon
Not land locked
A new journey
Sailing away
Leaving absurdity
A new sunset everyday
My intent
My want
My plan
My desire
At sixty not too late
To transition
A new journey and fate
A grand ambition
But wait
Who is this girl
That I went on a date
Her hair has so much curl
I am smitten
By her beauty and enthusiasm
Maybe sailing is not written
She has to be an addendum
My plan b has crumpled
Moving to plan c
My arrogance humbled
I now can see
I want her in my life
And she makes me laugh
With no crazy strife
I want to be her better half
In this moment
In this time
In this minute
In this space
I will pursue her
Wanting to know if she is real
Not some imaginary blur
And my feelings are real
Sailing will be there
But I can not let this pass
I am chasing that wild hair
And this charming lass
There is so much opportunity
There is so much promise
There is so much compassion
There is so much expectation
Go all in
Do not miss the chance
I can only laugh and grin
A sailboat can not kiss or dance
