Faith without reason
Faith without reason is blind
The blind constitute zealotry
Zealots lack the basis of reason
Thus their faith lacks Gods conciliation
and they shall never profit from peace
When their hearts are at war with the world

Woman (to a man)
A man who enjoys the company of a woman
Should learn to say goodbye to his wallet
Every word of her love from her lip
Costs every dollar and cent to have sink
Its better to love your account
Then to let her tear it apart

You Can Never Buy The Sun
you can buy the Sun
If you build the tower
on the backs of others
to prove you have the power
Until a pyramid of one
Becomes the only answer
But when it inevitably falls
It proves it never mattered
For YoU CaN nEvEr BuY tHe Sun

Man (to a Woman)
A woman that needs the arms of a man
Will constantly be colliding into doors
If she expects wolves to change clothes
Then all she will wear are tears in her throat
The girl who dreams of fairy tales
Will have to live in daily nightmares

You Never Have To Dream
A dream is an illusion
Whereas an objective is valid
Coordinate your passions
To purposeful intentions
Optimizing commitment
For rational solutions
Then when you reached the end
And established the pinnacle
It becomes so much clear
You never have to dream

In Washington friendship follows the wind
In Washington friendship follows the wind
Its course steady as an earthquake
One fault line exposes all the sticks
Shuffling new backroom handshakes
Integrity blows like gale in the east
Succumbing to its own decay
Revealing the only constants deceit
A Machiavellian parade

A late night walk that ends in Peace - June 22,2012
Vultures meander on their bikes
the gas station lights flicker
I walk with quickened pace and brawn
To escape their rapacious tongs' that glimmer
Obscenities chew centurion words
Bayonet looks from across the river
On asphalt roads of distant concrete
I escape to be their dinner

A Rose Grows In The Night
A rose grows in the night
Lit beneath the diamond lights
Petals smooth in silken magic
Blossom crimson shaded fabric
I touch the stem and thorns
Disappear from their tragic court
Scent regales the pollens nectar
That sings in childhood's laughter
Where smiles are like roses
That grow inside the night

Acronyms
A-nnoying professional documents
C-onstantly contain meager puns.
R-idiculous features of ill humor semantics
O-bfuscating the contents with asinine
N-ouns propositioned in stupid arrangements
Y-et satisfy know one but dull bureaucrats
M-anagment types who build programs with
S-tupidly unfunny acronyms

Colour of Happiness
The colour of anger is Red
Frustration connubial to Dread
The colour of love is Purple
Sanguine to Aphrodite's myrtle
The colour of life is green
Freshly mixed with infused submarine
But the colour of happiness is transparent
A viscous antonym of denotation
and I am the colours Souvenir
Cheap, artefact of a personas facsimile
