A bird flashed by as if mistaken then it
starts. We do not think speed of life.
We do not think why hate Jezebel? We
think who’s that throwing trees against
the house? Jezebel was a Phoenician.
Phoenician thunderstorms are dry &
frightening...

I'm pleased and honored to have #poems in the latest anthology from @chaossectionpoetry.bsky.social . There are so many powerful poems in this volume! Thank you to editors @nickallison80.bsky.social and @mother-poet.bsky.social for including mine.
Onwards!

Golden waves embrace the shore.
Footprints fade where wanders more.
A lone dog runs upon the sand.
Stretching wide on this golden land.
Walkers roam beneath the light.
Waiting for the gentle night.

Complaining about the cost of eggs and gas…
A bitter memory as they deport your family and send you to concentration camp
ignorance won’t save you
in the face of fascism
as you clung so desperately to your racism
They said it couldn’t happen here
#poems #booksky #poets #fascism

They said it couldn’t happen here
now your future is a boot heel on your neck
choking off your dreams of freedom
they don’t keep their fascist dreams hidden, kid
making excuses for missing fascists in plain sight
smiling behind blue suits and lies as they steal your rights

This is the state of our disunion
A notice of dissolution.
Failures of communication

Embracing fantasies and easy lies
instead of hard solutions
until it’s too late to heal all the
heartbreak.

Sapping all our strength
draining our minds of ideas and dreams
in the name of a progress
we’ll never see
Just another series of empty deals
a soulless pact
as they steal all we have
or will ever have

I've posted quite a few of my old poems recently. I have a lot more I plan to post (and hopefully some newer poems soon)! The latest one is an aisling poem I wrote in 2024!
