Energy Independence
Nancy P.
And Harry Reid
Have a record to defend
As they ascend
To joining with Obama
In a troika
Where they control
All the levers new and old.
Smashing the Republic,
Which indeed is sick
Will come about
As they lead the rout
Of Capitalism
In its war against Communism.
Then they will ensure
That the 'Welfare State' will endure
Any attempts to correct
Mistakes that voters try to forsake.

Western Disease Disharmony
alternative medicine
in natural resources
blossoms barks leaves
belay vibe vibrancy
infused elixir life force
invisible to naked
sterile microscopic
blind western eyes
yet Hippocrates spoke
‘vis medicatrix naturace’
in antique 400 B.C.
incarnate healing power
infusing mystery nature
naturopaths endeavour
to determine understand
work with healing forces

Sub Prime Crisis
I asked to the God:
Why America is on a verge of bankruptcy?
Why all are facing a drought of currency?
Do you think anyone should bank on banks?
Which have sunk a people of all class and ranks.
What quake produced a tsunami of sub prime crisis?
Can you explain it to the men, rich in vices?
Which is a better pill, communism or capitalism?
Can you illumine it with a dose of pragmatism.
God replied:
Son! There is nothing in this world like crises;
These are hidden opportunities in disguises.
One prime lesson still you haven't succeed to learn,
One should never spend more than one earn.
In jungle of finance, if you are led by economists,
Your fortune will be devoured by a debt’s beast.
If you mortgage future joys for a moment's passions,
Holy odyssey will fail to reach a divine station.
I replied:
In future, I will never take any kind of loans,

Freedom Rant, Part Three... (Death Of The Poets)
humanism, capitalism,
abdicate the throne.
god on the laptop,
satan on the phone.
what we are, how near, how far,
and things we dare know touch.
recite prayers, let down your hair,
when too little is too much.
justice bartered, equality martyred,
let religion opiate the mind.
cant see or smell the guilt of blood,
when you're deaf and you're blind.
money talks, while poverty walks,
and hatred buys a gun.
anger boils, the price of oil,
and the smoke hides the sun.
desperate trance, without a chance,
children learn to close their eyes.
minds closed and lips set,
while their souls pray to die!

Mitt Romney Has Confirmed What?
Mitt Romney has confirmed that which more than
47% of US voters have felt in their citizen hearts;
excessive profit exploitation of resources by 1%
the richest money grabbing carpetbaggers is wrong.
Mitt Romney condescendingly declared a poor
over exploited 47% dependent on the federal;
government for healthcare and housing are not
a presidential responsibility in corporate policy.
Mitt Romney has no ability to provide better lives
nationally as a goal massive profits by his ruthless;
supporters capitalism of super-corporations bankers
is adding salt to US unemployed bleeding wounds.
Mitt Romney supports government failing to provide
Americans employment due to recession production;
in factories exported overseas denying an American
recovery domestic employment in America healthy.

2012, Ending, Or Beginning!
the curtain is drawn,
the memories of another year,
a year of hardship and need,
packed in a box,
stored away to be forgotten.
we stand on the stage,
stripped naked by necessity,
forced to choose...
ending, or beginning?
the end of economic hope,
the end of the environment,
the end of individual rights,
the end of capitalism...
the end of the common man,
the end of morality...

Hot Enough for You?
Hey you right wingers who hang on to oil company excuses and
corporate rationalizations about weather patterns; so the greedy can continue to not use scrubbers and abide by rational supervision and laws that protect the environment is it hot enough for you?
3,800 temperature records broken in the first week of July,2012 alone.
Destructive wildfires in Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Nebraska.
Over 50% of the country experiencing serious drought.
Old bubba is running his air conditioner twenty four seven!
You buy into such lies. You vote for corporate shills that ruin the world your children and grand children will inherit. You support the rich that the Bible condemns.
You think capitalism is the law of God and support greed. They blow off the mountain tops in West Virginia for the coal and leave a total mess. You deny global warming like Cain slew Abel. Let them pollute rivers and aquifers. Let them pollute the air and poison the earth. One out of sixteen use to get cancer now it is one of two. You don't stand up for GMO labeling or green technology. You don't stand up against the food industry as it corrupts creation and has horrible cruelty to animals. Radiated meat, ammonia washed, growth hormones and carcinogens and toxins. Then the very killers who ship the jobs and rule the world you give a tax break to.
IS IT HOT ENOUGH FOR YOU Bubba?

Good Institutions
Share whatever we have and dream prosperity for all
Respond generous humanity and calamity call
What keeps us united in all the circumstances?
Something must be believed in substances
Some thing said and not done, will not work
All good work done will be lost in smoke
We are here for upliftment of all classes
It is difficult task and not easy walk on roses
There is one conception dreamt about
Growth and happiness for all out
Equal participation in real terms
No communism, capitalism or socialism
The system which benefits all the communities
Number of welfare schemes with different varieties
No one is allowed to hold sway over others
Nothing is conceived in haste that bothers

Enough Money Spent On Wars
What agony; accumulative emotive costs;
feed needle; soul destroying drug addictions?
What monstrous greed
cloaked in racial hatred;
fed with religious hatred
feeds covert wars justified?
When will we; with humanity feed;
with compassion; brothers sisters imprisoned;
in race conflict; poverty dying discarded;
in ignored horrors; extant third world?
Ban every earth war feed our poor
not capitalist corporate baron robbers;
glutted on global sly sweat shop wages
slum lord rents death reaped war profits?
Misery is waste residue of souls
which seek self pleasure materialism;
