Well I have a few poems and stuff that I though a few of you might want to read. Feedback would be nice too...
Sacrifice By Fire - Opfer durch Feuer
Deutschland, Deutschland, über alles,
Words, cold, heartless, callous,
Kristallnacht, Aryanization,
Deeds, actions, beyond explanation.
Ausweis, Ausweis, alles einordnen,
Auschwitz, Dachau, Bergen-Belsen,
Jew, Slav, Gypsy, Gay,
Yesterday here, gone today.
ARBEIT MACHT FREI,
Words, false hope, vicious lie,
You, life, meaningless here,
Gestapo, Einsatzgruppen, Bundeswehr.
Ghetto, cattle truck, camp, shower,
Goering, Final Solution, abuse of power,
In line, naked, morning frost,
Sacrifice by fire; Holocaust.
Somewhere In The Night
Somewhere in the night a child cries,
A woman weeps and someone dies.
Somewhere in the night, humanity hides.
Somewhere in the night , a soul screams,
As people fade and die, lost in dreams.
Somewhere in the night, reality lives.
Somewhere in the night loneliness dwells,
As people die, no sounding bells.
Somewhere in the night, she dies alone.
Somewhere in the night ...
Where is the light?
A tribute to...
I took a trip into a different world...
I heard things not meant to be heard...
I saw colors not meant to be seen for those with eyes...
Lights flashed, bright swirls of colors clashed.
Whispers, sounds and noises were put into one.
The world melted as though it had never begun...
Time passed, people changed...
At once it was night, before long it was day.
Time went by as though it were yesterday.
It was cold and it was warm...
The world sparkled...then went on fire.
It was summer but the mountains melted as though it were
a cold winter day...
I walked into the spinning tunnel of dreams...
Memories I'll have, dreams I'll make and journeys I'll talk...
Kids vs. Society
You say I'm too young to love,
And I'm much too young to swear.
You say I'm too young to cry
When someone doesn't care.
You say I'm too young to drive,
You say I'm too young to vote,
Not old enough to think.
You say I'm too young to work
And I'm much too young to have a say.
You say I'm too young to argue,
I'll never get my way.
You say it's up to me
To make the world great.
How can I possibly do this
If I'm too young to participate?
For Us There Is No Death
For us there is no death.
Rest here merely bones.
Around you love's in flower,
Zero though our breath,
Etched into these stones.
Read and feel its power.
For One Day
The old man of the sea,
Stares wistfully towards the shore.
His grey eyes twinkling,
Matching the colour,
Of the granite rock,
Upon which he sits.
He sits wishing,
For one day only,
To be free,
Of the storm filled seas.
And to walk, proud like a man,
With the sand beneath his feet.
Fantasy and Reality
Two little girls play pretend,
In the field of imagination.
Sleeping Beauty shuts her eyes,
In the grassy dew of childhood.
Suddenly she screams!
Tiny ants bite her tender skin.
She runs home to the arms,
Of her Mother,
And soaks in a bed,
Of soothing water.
Two little girls, now grown,
Live in the field of reality.
Snow White’s beauty sparkles
In the mirror of marriage.
Suddenly she screams!
Infidelity tears her tender skin.
She cannot run home,
To a Mother long gone.
So lies in a pool,
Of broken dreams.
I wake alone
Fighting once again at night
to scared to close my eyes
Cold, afraid and lonely
are the dreams in which she dies
The pain upon her loving face
visions of the other place
angels sing a sombre tune
I wake again alone
Snow
Gently drifting down
Winter flurries are coming
Tickling my cold face
Old Rob Cheer
Old Rob Cheer was a cheeky fat man
who owned a green dog and a green frying pan
he awoke one night
to his own worst fright
and discovered his wife was a man!
Hedgehog Vs. Motorway
I must cross the road,
Cars whizzing past,
Don’t want to get flattened,
Had better move fast.
Walking the tarmac,
Saw Uncle Stan,
Flat as a pancake,
Squashed by the postman.
Between the front wheels,
And over a bump,
I wish I could run,
Like Forest Gump.
I’m as sly as a fox,
As quick as a cat,
Oh I’m so brilliant,
Uh oh…splat!
Hedgehog was brave,
Although maybe nuts,
Everyone can see,
That he sure had guts!
