A letting of blood,
Red river on the pale flesh,
A trembling hand.

Metal fragments flying,
Murder of the innocents,
The manticore walks.

God,
Thought it extremely odd,
His followers from the United States,
Prefer to be a killer to one who negotiates.

Warmongers drop bombs,
Profit, not peace, the target,
Wounded doves dying.

Peter Brian Hesgeth
Making much of all his Lord giveth,
A 'Jerusalem Crusader's' badge proudly worn,
A pretense to greatness, in reality a tinhorn.

Fingers trail water,
Rivulets ravine black foam,
Scared fish scattering.

Laughing into bed,
Making love with abandon,
Sheltering clownfish.

Running fast footsteps,
Break the deep still of the night,
The prey? The hunter?

Sir Anthony Charles Lynton Blair,
Advising everywhere,
His saintly efforts never cease,
Now a founder member of the 'Board of Peace'.

The Mango Mussolini,
Meaner than the meanest Blue Meanie,
Rants about the woke,
He's the comedy though, only doesn't get the joke.

A shiver in trees
Rustling downhill through thick pines,
Scurrying squirrels.

The soldier dies,
Crying out in the unknown,
Vultures circle high.

Long, long, long the road,
Twisting, turning for the child,
Baying of wolves.

Superinjunctions,
Hide the evil done to us,
A Gamayun flies.

"Strings"
Moneymen's tight strings,
Move our heads, arms, legs and minds,
Circus performers.

Waves break on rubble,
Lapping over skeletons,
New fish learn to walk.

A scar runs tearful,
A finger tracing lost love,
The lark's song echoes.

Cawing at others,
Suited politicians,
A murder of crows.

Burn water brown flows,
Quick flashes white in the mirk,
Caught the Heron's eye.

Blasted by thunder,
White out blinding, isolating,
Hare footprints in snow.

Fir needles turning yellow,

No reason, no bounds.

Dripping slow mellivory,
Bears feed at the hive.
