WE MUST STARVE
We must go thirsty, hungry, and then cry,
And get cold, just to know your worth, O God;
You planned a smile on our lips whilst we
Were swearing, and this makes the matter odd.
**
WE PROMISE YOU
We promise you, o God, on this great day
To grow at last lead a decent life;
Foe we accept you with faith and respect,
So live in our hearts, give us grace, not strife.
**
SOME FEATHERS
Creator of the world, I only want
Your love, approval, everyone’s respect,
And then some feathers in my wings to fly
Home to the family in this way decked.
**
MASTERS AND SLAVES
If all creation was to be reborn
The world would still have masters and their slaves.
Some people fret after their little dog
Whilst their own brothers are chained like the waves.
**
LEADERS OF THE PACK
Do not believe the stories, they are lies,
For we have shed blood, and wars bring decease,
And thousands upon thousands have now died
While leaders of the pack at last made peace.
**
FRIENDSHIP
No permanency does exist at all
In friendship, we are toys in other hands,
For seasons follow seasons and again,
Since warmth we freeze through folks of other lands.
**
GO AWAY
Moslems and Christians we, call out loudly
With one voice, leave us go away, depart,
For it is wrong for you to occupy
Our land, and spread your shadow on our heart.
**
RELIGION FOR THE DEITY
Religion is for Deity not man,
Stop pouring oil upon the mounting fire;
No mosque or church will do you any good
If grudges enter in at your desire.
**
BEIRUT
A lot of people wished to see the death
Of that most pleasant city called Beirut;
Most cities are constructed form the rocks,
But rubies and sapphires are its repute.
**
A NUN
A nun had been betrothed to Lord Jesus
And walked the road of Calvary and death;
She left her country and she crossed the sea
To be the light in darkness, give life breath.
**
THE RIVER Of BITTERNESS
Do not dare turn your back when you would lick
All of your brother’s honey and, therefore,
The river of great bitterness starts where
The bees invade the flowers they adore.
**
A GRAVE
I traveled over all the world; I crossed
The seas, and I accrued wealth such to save,
I built a palace. Five letters I need,
If put together, they’ll build me a “grave”.
