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

I've had some bad neighbors The black couple from Nigeria tops the list They used to complain about my stomping on their roof And they slow cooked and filled the hall with a horrible stench all the time Thankfully they have been gone since 2012
Firstly this poem was written when Obama won the Presidency in 2008. Secondly it's only a poem so plz no out of timing comments on political views.
its just funny what people think about people like me!!! i just say im color blind... but really they are. society has set a standard on how different races should dress , they're activity, music, & fellowship should be with its own race . & whoever crosses over gets looked apond as wanting to be something other than what they are... i guess morale is at a all time low!!!

This is about all the events in life that happen that are out of our control. If things didnt go your way then you have to take action to either adapt to the situation or take steps to rid yourself of the burden. My original intention when i wrote this was to come off as aggressive and fed up, but ive learnt not to push too many powerful feelings across to the reader and let them substitute their own.

I took off from work for four days off. I try to break up the year with some time off as I work six days most weeks. I also saw a coyote on the way back to town.
it's about a coo on a hill, who was there yesterday and might be there still
Written 2-21-02. Back when I raised show rabbits, there were rules about how many rabbits a breeder could have before it was considered "commercial" and needed a license. Same with dogs, because of what some people did badly. IE, poor care of breeding stock, animals dying or no vet care etc. So, the responsible breeders were faulted for it, not the ones making the mistakes. But with this ripple effect on good breeders, eventually so many other things would be affected and our world would come crashing. That law didn`t pass but it`s still hovering over us.
Men lean on shovels Orange barrels block the road Tax dollars at work
This poem is two folded. It is about the separation of a nation.A cry for Humanity we are ALL human. Oh & no to those close minded individuals it is not for one race it is for HUMANITY
Just a little artful advice about thinking twice...
A face you appear and a face within many faces with many, one face with some one inside, another not so clear one is a face inside out make one in one and one of one my dear face not one is a face lost face a one is forever
spare a minute for someone you will be a better person for it

To the Hero's who gave their lives that day...
We all know what i’m talking about here friends……
Never quite sure where to put my stuff ...lol
I really feel this way, if everyone out there just tried to be the best person they could be imagine how much better ythe world could be. I know this sounds childish or like something a pagent queen may say, but I think it is so true. So many times we allow ourselves to not be good human beings whether someone else makers us mad or that we just claim we don't have the time or money or whatever, we allow ourselves to not be the best people we can be and I think it's sad. The world is dying but we as a whole kind of say, hey we'll deal with it tomorrow and it's saqd. And the thing I think is the saddest is I do it too and if everyone in the world took five minutes to make a difference could you image...The whole world united in one thing for five minute, one thing that would help us all for five minutes....Anyone like that is reality and I swear I am not psycho enviromentalist ( not that there is anything wrong with that ) But really I know I could try harder at being a better human being...Thanks for the time *lol*
progress takes away what took forever to find
Respect is something that is so important, and so hard to find in other people I have come across. Those who truly have respect for women, especially pretty women is pretty awful in this country. I wonder how we match up with Canada or Norway.

The struggles that people face
With hope that a "Just and Honorable" Peace will come out of Tel Aviv
They don't care about life They hold the living in contempt They watch the helpless suffer Weighing them down On their knees… Begging And for what? A little bit of something Amounting to nothing Keeps a small stomach churning At least one
I was just wondering if justifyable reasons sanction War, something we all haate
The battle mankind is surely going to have in these last few days on earth.
My writing expresses experiences from many cultures around the world that I've had the pleasure of working and living among and listening to their history, stories and struggles as well as in my home America. I fight for the freedom we all are losing everyday in the current fervor of fear this is my mission through writing. Confronting the Now is the battle cry for the revolution that is sure to come. Jade Anjoun.
a few lines, next time I'll write about kittens and flowers.
I looked at Ron Paul and his stance on some of these issues as he is one of my favorites through the years who ran for president. Ross Perot, Jill Stein, Gary Johnson, and Ralph Nader were some good ones too.
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.
