Dragonflies
Emerging From My Pond
From
the nearly silent humming
I
know they are coming
An
event I find so fond
Dragonflies
emerging from my pond
It
is a sight
Of
wonder and delight
Most
majestic of the insects
I
hold them in great respect
Their
wings flapping fast
Gracious
long green bodies
Resembling
the behemoths of the past
One
by one I see them rise
Until
like stars they speckle the skies
Every
time it captures my heart
Dragonflies
emerging from my pond
It is God’s work of art
Powder Keg
She’s got looks everyone wants to know
She shakes it a little and see it blow
Always on the run always on the go
All the men come again to the show
She’s a powder keg
Ready to explode
She’s a powder keg
Running down the road
She’s a powder keg
Ready to explode
Neon lights advertise sweet delight
She packs em in night after night after night
High heels cherry red and nothing more
She’s a powder keg and her TNT is pure
She’s a powder keg
Ready to explode
She’s a powder keg
Running down the road
She’s a powder keg
Ready to explode
Softly her childhood dream was born
A Rockette or better yet Broadway
By her step father her virtue was torn
Without voice and no choice a runaway
Port Authority,
So to survive she comes alive showing her stuff
Lust is easy true Love is rare
Hundreds of men but nobody to care
Up on the stage she’s a rage of fire
She fulfills fantasy but no one’s desire
She’s a powder keg
Ready to explode
She’s a powder keg
Running down the road
She’s a powder keg
Ready to explode

Ona Move
Dedicated to those
slain in the fire from sky
To the men, women and
children who did die
By the hands of wicked
men insane
May their sacrifice
not be in vain
Pale invaders from across the sea
Democracy, we shall be free?
The Earth echoes with their cries
Mother mourns lamenting their lies
Red men in peace and harmony understood
To serve the Creator we must do good
A brutal winter to survive
Indians in Love kept them alive
And to repay the kindness done
Each pilgrim picked up a gun
And to those not blown away
Gotta move gotta move this day
All in God’s name
Evil they proclaim
It’s a shame
Still I insist and say
Ona Move Ona Move this day
Arrogant minds lusting for power
A darkness of scourge to devour
Men stolen from African home
Chained on ships to terrors unknown
Victims of a diabolical plan
Beasts of burden transformed from man
Beaten, bound upon fields of cotton
Agonies the system insists be forgotten
And when the chains of iron fell
Chattel slavery deformed to a different hell
No forty acres and a mule
A little better but still infinitely cruel
The master of the opulent plantation
Shares no wealth only tales of salvation
So to those emancipated as they earnestly pray
Gotta move gotta move this day
All in God’s name
Evil they proclaim
It’s a shame
Still I insist and say
Ona Move Ona Move this day
From history that makes no sense
A hypothetical pretense
That we have an unalienable right
To say and do as we might
So we gather, build and organize
What we create they come to despise
For tyrants live in castles of sand
To be washed away when we understand
So John Africa with brilliant mind
Opened his eyes to truths to find
That the government is a slave to money
And humanity is robbed by technology
So to flourish we should live simple
And forsake the nonsense that clutters the soul
Yet darkness seeks to extinguish light
In
Until in the city of brotherly love
They dropped a bomb from the sky above
Only Ramona and a child to survive
But from the ashes the dream stays alive
When you kill with a uniform its okay?
Gotta move gotta move this day
All in God’s name
Evil they proclaim
It’s a shame
Still I insist and say
Ona Move Ona Move this day
They lie about everything under the sun
Especially the evil they have done
Still there is something to prove
Ona Move Ona Move
Move from hate
Move from useless debate
Move from science
Move from technological reliance
Move from greed
Move I plead
Move indeed
Move from war
Move from
I’ll say it once more
For I am sure
There is something to prove
Ona Move Ona Move
Move to peace
Move to release
Move to being kind
Move to free our mind
Move to see
Move to being free
Move to God above
Most of all Move to Love
There is something to prove
Ona Move Ona Move
When we Move in this land
When we come to understand
Wicked powers will die
Empty demons tossed from the sky
I cannot Move for you
It’s something we all must do
Be true
And know in all we go through
Love will renew
Love will renew
Love will renew
There is something to prove
Ona Move Ona Move
Darkness shall decay
Ona Move Ona Move this day
No force shall make us stray
Ona Move Ona Move this day
For we too come in God’s name
We too have a message to proclaim
Our prophecies are not the same
We do not blame
Come the sun, see it rise
Look with your own eyes
Dawn’s first ray
Ona Move Ona Move this day
Night is turning to day
Ona Move that’s what we all say
Ona Move Ona Move this day
Prove what we got to prove
Ona Move
Escaping Fascism
Straight from the institute
Desire of the soul
Money and control
Mister Business suit
Lusting for more
Advocates perpetual war
Hear him calling
While in the Middle East
There is no peace
As bombs are falling
I’d like to migrate
Someplace safe
Far from the hate
But on the brink of World War
3
That is impossibility
On the Amerikkkan street
Young black men feel the heat
Based on their race
Gun downed in disgrace
Meanwhile the war on terror
Is pushed wide and far
As long as profits are to be
made
Satan’s plans carefully laid
Will be executed
In Mother Earth violated and
polluted
Maybe the Caribbean
Isolated from the sea
Is the only place to be
Even then
They invaded Grenada
And Haiti in poverty obscene
In occupied and crucified
By the United States marines
Best to stay in your own land
And make a stand
Escaping Fascism
Will only come with a fight
So do what is right
R-E-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N
R is for the righteousness of
our fight
E is for the evil that
permeates this place
V is for the victory on which
we set our sight
O is for the overwhelming
odds we face
L is for the love that we
show one another
U is for the undeniable force
we possess
T is for the talents we will
discover
I is for that ignorance that
we must address
O is for oppression the
foulest crime
N is for now, as now is the
time
Peace
There is a dream
That we share
In lofty hopes
And solemn prayer
Peace
Peace I say
To come our way
Peace for all
Great and small
We awake
In the rumble of the bomb
With the scent of napalm
On our breath
Prophesying death
War is a whore
With no give and all take
Missiles fly
Children cry
Civilians die
And we ask why
While the answer given
Is always a lie
But there is no surrender
Or forsaking the ideal
In the future
Peace will be real
We shall turn
When we learn
The lesson of Love
