Best Only The Strong Survive Poems
World of ViolenceWorld of violence
As the morning slowly breaks
and, daylight in fil trates...
I feel,
the sunshine- burn away the grey
I feel,
the dawning, of a brand new day
I wish, the clouds would
confiscate the rain...
ease the pain ...
as I awaken,
to a world of violence.
In a...

A Slavery MentalityBelieve in what I am told or what I see
This war is bitter and I aspire to be free
Free from these shackles and discrimination
Free from selective elimination
We call our children mistakes so we can free ourselves of responsibility
And our babies...

Happy Dreams Happy DreamsTo fall asleep everynight
Is like a meal I happily prepare.

When my Father takes me there.
To forgive sometimes
that's a hard pill to swallow.
So, I'm looking stay hoping
for a better tomorrow.
Happy dreams is what I dream
When...

Specie UnknownJust a casual experiment, a new direction,
a bit of slime, residue of past process
left unattended in a remote corner obscure,
to grow, to morph, divide in diverse pattern.
Smaller than simple sight by naked eye,
infinitesimal in worlds order, just one cell.
Born of circumstance by casual curiosity,
by result...

Why Didn'T They Kill Me‘Scars have the strange power to remind us that our past is real.’-Cormac McCarthy
Why didn't they kill me...
why am i still here...?
Being successful is my goal...
being flat broke,
my biggest fear
The pain is far to great to hide, laying awake and wide eyed
contemplating...

Cold WarThe war it's cold with no signs of any ending, it's like adding another twenty years to a life sentence, even in the heat of the moment lies a cold kitchen, with lukewarm souls, in a dark prism, what's a prison to a free spirit,...

The DukeA lone rider sits high in the saddle,
As the horizon's sunrise spreads across,
The open prairie.
Twin pearl handed pistols rest at his side,
As rusty spires clang against wooden planks,
At the deadwood saloon.
Legends cowboys whisper his name,
On the dry desert winds,
A giant of a man whom breathed
Life...

Leery of the Theory
As a child, I was taught that God created everything
But when I went to school,
the theory of evolution was the accepted doctrine
That kinda teaching didn't sit well with my parents,
they gathered the kids around, read us the riot act
Their voices dripped with scorn, and they...

I Want To Live In a CastleI want to live in a castle
Where only the strong survive
With turrets and towers
And joust by the hour
And a six foot mote outside.
I want to live in a castle
On a cliff beside the sea
And spend my days with
The Lords and Ladies who
Come calling each day...

Depends on the wheelman which earth born,
Crave where the passengers await it's destination,
Seeing an endless road ahead.
Every four years is it's renewal with the,
Hope of getting...

This Is How I LiveI dip my pen in plasma
Write my rhymes in blood
Immortal soldier stopping emotions with a mental plug
I put my game-face on and hit the battlefield
Turning insults to motivation make my writings feel
Never hypocritical
I never change like reciprocals
Steady swimming forward, like a shark because its critical
No...

Letting GoI thought of a thousand words,
None came out.
Like burnt rubber,
Dry as charred toast
I chocked on letters,
As if nails lined my throat.
I swallowed my brokenness.
My neck bent, heavy from the crown.
I would walk away with nothing,
My loses came with the bet.
Decisions filled with consequences.
Angel wings dipped...

The Fishing Hole.Just off the san pedro river,
where the catfish only hit on liver.
Lies a stock pond full of fish,
where some come to make a wish.
it takes about an hour to drive,
you'll soon find out only the strong survive.
Now make a left at the tree,
and the...
