Wait not for another

wait not for one more
when all you need is you

when going back to start over

might be painful

might be disgraceful

the end matters more 

wait not for other more

What are we?

We are all strangers

marching on to a place unknown

I met you already here

Am I a stranger to you

But there ...

Where you will also go

and find me already there

I am no stranger

The mark I bear

is it the mark I now bear?

A message went out

without any reply

A call fell on live ears

and none paid heed to pick

A song of death was announced

and she did not hear the phrase: "my condolences"

And they that keep their promises of hope

shall have the heavens renew their strength

Inauguration

Come master builder come

Through to the end be the guide

Come fountain of love come

The upwell of terror and hate hide

Come from far and near come

That the dream of Amerigha be seen

Blessed be Amerigha oh blessed

Let every tongue and tribe resing

Thanksgiving

Should it not be more than the turkey tale
Should it not be a full gorgeous gratitude 

For that eye that once looked at you gaily

For that heart that sealed the peaceful pact

The head that helped you on that fateful day

The mind from which floweth all his grace

Above all this, his ever flowing fountain of love

All of which thou ought to be grateful all thy day

Should he be gone ...

Should he be gone before you realise it

Should it be late for you to beat your thigh

Ahead in the ripeness of time 

Awaits what er will betide 

In the darkness of the night

Nor above, in the fullest of the single eye 

If not now or soon, it might be someday

If you don't think twice

If you don't deal justly

No Night There

There was no night there
brightness like conquered darkness
where their people had no choices

and complaints like waterfall

on the back of a duck

only complaints 

which were said and not heard

There was no night there

daylight without the sun

daylight seen in an enclosure 

where there was no night 

and their ugly voices

but their shouts

and their instructions …

There was no love there

broken hearts, dreams, loneliness

there was no dignity

only men, beast, slavery

a land of fadeless days

they will leave this light into the darkness

but will find that light within them till the end of days

Your friend

The only friend you can count on in a strange land is the police 

when other helpers fail and comforts flee

When you lose that friend, no purpose 

is worth serving

Survival in life

Your survival in life

is never in looking out for yourself

but in the many lives 

you help to preserve

Painful Ordeal

The wait was forever

in the resistance endless

of that ordeal painful
