World of Words

Let the Pen Possess you


Although I have shared this on my other sites, and I wanted to share it here too. It is something I wrote spur of moment, as inspiration took hold.

When words just spill upon the pages,
Previously hidden in the mind for ages,
When all is flooded to paper from pen,
In that moment the pain can all end,
Oh to get it down,-get it done and said,
All those ideas, the thoughts in your head,
Let it flow through your veins freely,
Emmerge and transform to song or poetry,
A piece inside, a part of you,
A feeling, emotion, a view,
A personal window right to your core,
A marking of memory passed before,
Let the pen possess you, take you over fast,
The moment must be spent, for it can not last,
If it passes by, without a seconds glance,
You may never again get another chance,
Fill your world, with careful tone of text,
As one word is a blessing, another maybe a hex.

Gaze to the Future

People tempted by things they do not need,
The World overspilling of Hate and Greed,
Some lay starving, while food elsewhere wastes,
While the Selfish full-bellied, with satisfied look upon their
Faces,
Surrounded by an illusion of riches in possessions,
Driven only to self gain and inane obsessions,
Science is pushed and stretched like an elastic band,
History repeats; the lessons lost to the dying land,
Ears ignoring the cries of our Mother,
As we drown them out by killing Sister, killing Brother,
Where torture empowers- so sadistic to their pain,
And efforts of GoodWill often hide desire for personal gain,
Selflessness is rare, in this dark place,
Where Man is shamed, and stands,
Disgraced.
