Family, being in the Air Force, I wasn't going to speak on this but...I just gotta...

Abducted by conscious
thoughts that war has been
brought justly to
they,
the haves
and
we,
the have-nots
I am and have been immeasurably
& systematically part of
that so-called
war-mongering flock;
the
governmental establishment
if you will; therefore
practicing abstinence
is my only
vengeance against the
rage of the system I’ve
sworn to protect for 22-plus
years and what now seems like
an eternity in my mental
Retaining my
individual voice hits home
hardest when my precious seeds
ask “Daddy do you hear?”
So I place my hands tightly over my ears
to conceal
the loud noise of what they themselves
listen to…now more than ever
Cowboy Bob
(somewhat of a euphemism)
in the
bush
banging the drums
mightily
Reciprocally, I bang in return
with a conscious awareness;
perhaps more so than others…still dancing
to the beat of my own thoughts
though &
respectfully
practicing abstinence
Melodic cries of peace are heard across these
current
Divided States of America
(as if we needed more of this divisional ****) :madd:
Diplomatic, autocratic, democratic:
it’s all symptomatic of the problems
caused when worlds and ideologies
collide…
Were we listening when Rodney said:
"Can’t we all just get along?” :fight:
or
when
Shakespeare told us:
"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely Players;
They have their Exits and their Entrances,
And one man in his time playes many parts…"
Thus my entrance begins when my exit
is set in motion with the tap of my keyboard
keys when I make love with words;
circumventing
yet another strange syndrome
(been fortunate not to catch that friggin' case)
Been there; done that 12 years
before…and don’t really want to go anymore!
So I abstain from the pain these
hawkish
day & nightmares
cause
but yes, I
understand the pleasures most feel
when the
white dove
of indulgence flies high
