Our Stars and Stripes raised
After being exiled
For fifty four years.
Ineffective policy
Has finally been ended.
Dissidents upset
Obama is selling out,
They’re completely wrong.
We have embraced the Chinese
Condoning communism.
Where is their outrage,
Aren’t they just as oppressive…
Maybe even more?
Where money and profits live
We’ll always turn a blind eye.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Best of intentions
Resulting in destruction
Water pollution
Liquid more precious than gold
Spoiled for generations
.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Sleep amongst the stars
Lover’s eyes gaze upon you
What awaits beyond
.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Air full of moisture
But nary a drop hits earth
Arid desert weeps
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
To be all knowing;
Would I become horrified…
Sickened by the thoughts?
Would I share in suffering
Or in humanities pain?
I really don’t know,
Maybe I would offer love
Or a helping hand.
I’d like to think myself brave,
But then again…I’m not God.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Loftiest of goals
Are nothing without action
Procrastination
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Dressed in their finest, the mogul and his mistress approached the steps of the marble behemoth. They were running late for the gubernatorial ball and the inconvenience of the vagrant lying before them just served to infuriate.
Yelling obscenities at his still body…they did not realize he was dead.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
The stage has been set
Clown car gassed up and ready
Right-wing rant begins
Offering few solutions
To the mess that they started
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Frustration mounting
As oligarchs come boldly
Their riches in hand.
Elections bought and paid for…
Secret meetings seal the deal.
Buying candidates,
How much money must they have,
How can we compete?
Sitting idly by we watch
As the slaughter commences.
In revolution
This once great nation was born.
Perhaps it is time
The monarchs retaste our wrath
By drowning their precious tea.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Touch of subtle wind
Caressing suntanned skin
Caribbean dream
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
