A Poetic Warning (Reviewed)
Tag: Poetry
He Eat Dolce Vita (Revised)
He fly da vulture
He do stranger danger
He swamp da monster
He got winner envy
He lose by plenty
(Back in Twenty-Twenty
a geriatric beauty contest for
the filthy wealthy rich only)
From one son
Of a carpetbagger
To another son
Of a used car salesman
He cry loudly “Mummy!”
Now he ‘Don da Teflon’
Dat King of Redaction
◾️◾️◾️◾️◾️◾️◾️◾️◾️◾️
He Crypto A Go-Go 💰
He no go hungry
He no good bunny
El Malo Samaritano
Realmente . . . Sí ✔️
He look orange monkey
He da sunshine faker
He hound dog brother
He da Beastie’s bestie
He some mother trucker
Be dat Rosemary’s baby

The Doors of Deception [Redux]
Six long weeks
roaming the dry crust
of a sun burnt wilderness
Nothing but rocks
and red dust
The hot desert wind
that flays the skin
now murmuring
with words broken
of souls lost and forsaken
Perhaps it’s far better
upon this alien terrain
I finally surrender
to the haunting trauma
I’ve tried in vain
to never remember?
Ernesto Che Guevara (Redux)
“If you tremble with indignation at
every injustice then you are a comrade
of mine.”~ Ernesto Che Guevara
At long last
I’ve seen the past
and much like the future
it was murder
Since the beginning
of forever
brother Cain came
with low blows
to impose
a new world order
I thank Christ
some had time to grasp
the hand at task
For chaos never stops
to count the cost
But I blame myself
for a world of mayhem
and uncivilised disorder
ever since the canonization
of my dearest friend
Ernesto Che Guevara

Earth To Mars🌹(Revisited)
Earth to Mars
My husband
is again missing
deep in cyber space
He was last seen
orbiting Mars
whilst writing a poem
Does Elon Musk know
that my X Man
Captain Lex Icon
got there first?
Now I’ve lost all trace!
AMERICA, what’s going on?
INFLAMED by abstractions DIVISIONS are FESTERING along tribal fault lines in the land of the Grand Old Proposition raising the Cain of entitlement versus obligation Upon the field of play the clashing of rights . . . and wrongs is deafening as malice is enticed with a free pardon Cowardice holds it's breath praying for one last roll of the dice now that Holy Conspiracy has become the new religion of an exiled generation
The Game Changer (On Replay)
‘The Game Changer’
The nature of the game
Accumulating riches?
Chasing fleeting fame?
Crossing the line
after a steep climb
with a golden star ⭐
next to your name?
Like a Rising Stone (Revisited)
Like a Rising Stone
A time to live
to seek
to be found
to hear truth
how sweet the sound
Veritas
to be tasted
To love
and to be loved
Without it
a lifetime
truly wasted
