My second poem from my collection, about how governments reflect on everyday people's lives it could reflect any government or all governments around the world.
I wrote this because it needed to be written If you live in reality, you'll have some understanding. Tweaked a tad 2/16/21
Why do we claim we are perfectly sane while feeling the madness of feeling no pain killing each other and killing for gain we're destroying ourselves and dying in shame
seems as though choppy seas are all we sail these days...
This poem is about today's society and how money influences it. Written: 12th June 2013
Well here we go once again we have major breaking news, Yet we prefer to hear about the Miley Cyrus boos. Going to strike another country when ourselves can't see, Cause its set to the side of the start of football sounds weird to me. Or is it..

People in high places governing are so full of deception I have no faith in people who are out to have total control of our lives. They create so much living hell globally and yet never face trial for their crimes against humanity and reap the power and control

I had a dream to become a weatherman than my college took away that goal as well as the hurdles in my life that provided me with tests to test my ability to overcome. Now I write about life,love, and about things that I find going on around me. My belief is that we are destined to an open mind as we pursue a brighter future even though we are currently experiencing cloudy conditions. So to my fellow brothers and sisters don't ever give your dreams and goals for one day you may just be the one that our future generations hear about as a difference maker in our history
we are ants they are grass hoppers
There are no words to describe The sacrifices made for you The Earth Logos for eons of time Those from outside sacrifice bliss So that you may live another day There are things ongoing Stabilising the tectonic plates Limiting storms and earth
thoughts....
For those who remember the troubles of Northern Ireland and lived through this phase an insight into those who were sent on the whim of the political regimes of the time. This poem was in part a collaboration with Tar (Robert) we both know the stresses relating to being there (Falklands & Vietnam) and was hoping to bring about a tale of fears and scares that still haunt us to this day, maybe we will complete if our sanity holds.
I was just wondering if justifyable reasons sanction War, something we all haate
My great political leaders of Singapore SONS OF SINGAPORE
Just my sounding off at this stupid political regime this country has the so called House of Commons has reverted to the Cromwellian era when the rich controlled the state.
Have seen a lot of changes within this country over the years some for the good and a lot for the worse. A country that gives over 5 Billion a year in Foreign Aid yet cannot combat the 3 evils which are man made, poverty, homelessness and jobs. Just my own view.

(Verse 1) Look around you, what do you see? mothers crying for their sons and daughters so that the rich can fill their greed with more currency destroying our bodies with poison in our food and waters and we just sit back and relax with no comp
The 1st 3 yrs of a pattern
Continuing to watch debates for senators and govenors on my tv.
Pride cometh before a fall the grave yards are teeming with the proud and the foolish The poor man rich man and the bard. the sulky teenager, the grumpy old man, all will touch the fire's of hell. Sail on by under silvery moons and Dante's sun
I wrote this poem out of frustration with all politicians who refuse to admit mistakes of any stripe. P.S. Not trying to be political, not trying to offend, it's just what I feel.
Through the maze of uncertiantys through the pain and the fear through the valley of broken promises and the friendships they wear on the banks of wishfull thinking with MY bridges
Be ye angry and sin not. A Bible verse we have forgot. Does your anger rule your life? Do you always live with strife? Many love their confrontations, Seeking out new aggravations. Being negative gives them joy. For them anger is their toy.
"Excuse me,... Excuse me Mr Teddy Bear, but im not interested in preventing forest fires, .. You see, i live in the city. I am more interested in preventing drug abuse, gang violence, homelessness, and im also interested in trying to educate

this is about the journey that takes place at work when you are faced with an accident and uncertainty where other people and forces come to play the union, fellow workers and supervisors all are part of the picture sensitivity and trust, faith hope and charity the journey continues bills have to be paid the mortgage payments etc all part of responsability with God's grace and positive thinking I go on
As they unvailed the loss city at record speed Devoured savage strangers with odd ease Climbed to the steeps to seek out the weak Privelaged all the elders to speak wisdom seeked Supposed claims of fortune veer them astray Havoced common
continue the fight god bless america , written by brooks ross copeland III wekks after september 11th 2001 copyrighted and published by poetry.com
I wrote this poem early part of this month as a blog posted on my website. It's a common sense/lash out at the president's most harshest critics and haters. These people seem to criticize everything that he does. As an independent, but more over to the base of the conservative side of the political spectrum, I agree/disagree on certain things that the president have done but I'm willing to give him time and show him respect like I did with former president Bush. Bashing just to be bashing and engaging in double standards towards him and not with other past presidents is not constructive criticism. What these people need to understand that this type of behavior is Only making themselves look seriously misinformed and ignorant, not the president!
An Acrostic about today's society and political flavorings...
Politican in Ireland are still talking a load of shite!
