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

I Never Dreamed


I never dreamed
Someone from my past
Feelings redeemed
So much time has passed

I kept up with her
We would always be friends
She would concurr
Our friendship transcends

We have reconnected
Both being single
We have redirected
For us to mingle

She watched me sail
Commenting along the way
I called her instead of email
Just not any comminique

We talked for hours
Just about everything
She must have superpowers
She was so addicting

We communicated frequently
Four or five times a day
I enjoyed her evidently
Because she was so gay

She was brilliant
She was happy
She was exciting
She was captivating

I wanted more
I wanted that energy
I wanted to explore
I wanted synergy

I asked her out
And she agreed
What a rout
I decreed

Too smooth
Too slick
Too easy
Too sleek

We were so agreeable
I was flabbergasted
Our future is unforeseeable
And it was not forecasted

Now a new journey
Where will we go
A magnificent tourney
Only God will know

My Old Friend

I missed you
My good friend
We can share a pew
And transcend

Transcend my feelings
My feelings of obscurity
In all routine dealings
Reducing my security

Fall left to right
Shift backwards
The sun so bright
Unable to say words

Where do you hide
In the summertime
Where do you reside
Rushing back time after time

To disrupt my life
Bewitching me
Causing such strife
Not letting me flee

Fleeing the troubles
Fleeing the nuisance
Fleeing the intangibles
Fleeing the assurance

Assurances of stability
Assurances of normality
Assurances of survivability
Assurances of congeniality

I become tired
I become annoyed
I become angered
I become destroyed

Hard to accept
This reoccurring crap
Not well kept
In this sinister trap

Trap of denial
Trap of betrayal
Trap of carnal
Trap of abnormal

This is not just
Give me relief
Can you adjust
And reduce your grief

You must
No other choice
Or you will rust
And lose your voice

Stay steady
Bulk up
Reduce your anxiety
Accept your cup

Transition

How do you move
From one lifestyle to another way
What do you have to prove
Or who do you have to betray

Leaving your loved ones
Moving far away
Tired of the reruns
Satisfied to exit the fray

To most of us
The little things do not matter
But I cannot handle the fuss
All the unnecessary chatter

I hate the escalation of the mundane
It drives me nuts
And it hurts my brain
To live continually in a rut

So how do you escape
From this routine
Wanting to create a new shape
Without making a scene

Pray to God
Ask for direction
This is not odd
A way of injection

Create a vision
Let people know
Helps them envision
Your plan so it can grow

Grow on their minds
Not a great surprise
When I chase the winds
And say my goodbyes

What is success
How does that look
Write it down to reduce stress
Use a one dollar composition book

Write your thoughts
In this journal
Connect the dots
A commitment eternal
Read it periodically
Change it if needed
A true methodically
Success will be seeded

Payoff your debts
Have no liabilities
Easy as it gets
Increasing the possibilities

Possibilities to leave
With no restrictions
A grand reprieve
From regular convictions

Automate your finances
Depositing checks and paying bills
No reason to take chances
Create and update your wills

Fulfill your obligations
Tidy up your affairs
Mend your relations
Expend a few tears

Plan a period of months not days
To transition to your new world
A cautious journey pays
Your new life will unfurl

Unfurl in bits and pieces
Taking systematic actions
Success increases
Through these transactions

Create an exit plan
How do I get out
If crap hits the fan
And I have my doubt

Can I do it
Living on a boat
If I need to quit
Just read my notes

Follow your instructions
Knowing how to leave
Removing all obstructions
Not hard to unweave

Return to drydock on solid land
The life forgotten
Not what y0u had planned
You life will not be rotten

Appreciate that you tried
To live in a unique fashion
You did not backslide
Trying to enjoy a childhood passion

You took a trek
And you gave it a shot
What the heck
Not what you thought

But why this defeatist attitude
You have planned and trained
So do not unnecessary conclude
You will crack under the strain

God is in control
That is why you prayed
He owns your soul
So do not be afraid

God will communicate
If He disagrees
God is your mate
So be at ease

You have ignored God before
You know his wrath
You understand God more and more
You will not stray from His path

Go with assurance
A grand expedition
You have secular insurance
And divine permission

Enjoy and treasure
Toast and celebrate
This extraordinary pleasure
Sailing is your fate
