You Can Easily Recognize

You can easily recognize
Those who have never dealt with evil at all
And those who who have been down
Knee deep in it, and on familiar ground-
Evil squeezing you like a lover;
It's hands where they shouldn't be,
Because evil is already on too close terms
With those who don't by nature fear and abhor it.
But a person who has avoided at all costs
The cold stare of evil, and those clutching fingers;
Who has run squealing, from anywhere
That evil has ever appeared:
That person will be destroyed
Almost before the first shot is fired off,
While at the same time, the well-seasoned soldier
Is starting to warm up to the fully acceptable notion
That maybe this won't be
Just another boring day, after all-
Hand already itching at the trigger..

Together we shall overcome

‘Together we shall overcome’

‘Poetry for the Deaf’
Eh! What
What Eh!
What did you say?

‘Poetry for the Blind’
It’s called Performance poetry
It’s loud; so real
It’s written down
But only in Braille

‘Poetry for the Dumb’
For their eyes only
Read only

Poetry for the Deaf, Blind and Dumb
We will work it out between us
Please don’t make it:
Evil; no hear
Evil; no see
Evil; no speak

Once it is explained
The words the pen did lay
We will all understand in our own way
Yes, once the words are written
In addition, the reasoning is known
We three together will decipher the poem
‘Together we shall overcome’.

Of Evil Defined

An old Russian proverb that states: 'There can be no good without evil'.
All the world today is in an upheaval.
Let’s prevail to overcome all evil.
We all know there’s always a battle between good and evil.
For what is evil defined; One with a twisted mind.
And we all know that evil is in the back of everyone’s mind.
Always seeing evil can make us blind.
It can even make you loose your mind.
Just remember this proverb of mine: Good can prevail from all of mankind.

Overcome

even now the world is bleedin' but feelin' just fine all numb
in our castle where we're always free to choose never free enough
to find i wish somethin' would break cuz we're runnin' out of time

and i am overcome i am overcome holy water in my lungs i am overcome

these women in the street pullin' out their hair my master's
in the yard givin' light to the unaware this plastic little place
is just a step amongst the stairs

and i am overcome i am overcome baby holy water in my lungs i am overcome

so drive me out out to that open field turn the ignition off
and spin around your help is here but i'm parked in this open space
blockin' the gates of love

i am overcome i am overcome holy water in my lungs i am overcomed

beautiful drowning this beautiful drowning this holy water
this holy water is in my lungs

and i am overcome i am overcome i am overcome i am overcome

This Enduring Life

unfortunately
for me...life is a disease
we must overcome and endure
however is our will
sometimes
tiny..little things or creatures
fetch us to heaven
when we are sick or ill
though not a heathen
we try to reach the almighty
to repent...to ask for mercy
for our sins...our parents
our beloved and relatives
but all in vain
sömething is between
hinders and envies
not this time
says a loud voice
wait your turn
you will be repented soon
next time
somehow we are persuaded
then we lower down to the ground again
trying to live the disease again
we must overcome endurı ng
nobody knows how many lives
we mortals live
but the creator
this swamp we are in
is the only source of our lusts and ambitions.
what a pity
without this enduring life
and desire to live
there would be no worry...no lust
so we must ovecome this disease
as soon as we are permitted
pray...pray...pray and pray
just to our creator
no war...no enemy: no enmity
no killing no death
no evil nor devil
there will be peace
forever peace..no soaring
but the conforting
fluttering of the white wings
of the angels
and the bosoms of our prophets
ascending to god
this day is may be today
oh the devil
do not dissuade me
do not hinder
get out of my way

Feeling the rath of Evil

Feeling Evil


Evil on a night like this
Evil tasting like a twisted wish
Evil paralized upon the ground
Evil tates the tears of fear
Evil tainted sounds of cheer
Evil dripping down; your blood of hate
Evil tearing down your helpless fate
Evil swears that by the night's end
Evil won't say it was all pretend
Evil because Death will follow you
Evil until full content
Evil pleasured to full extent

It Takes One To Know One's Love

It takes one to know one's love!
So enduring,
So lovely;
And, we are who we love on this earth.

It takes one to know one's love!
So enduring,
So lovely;
And, you are what you eat on this earth.

Please, pleased!
So enduring,
So lovely;
And, you will always stay in my heart.

Cloak, oak, soak, croak;
Block, lock, dock, mock, cock, rock!
However, it takes one to know one's love.

So enduring,
So lovely! !
Bock, pock, clock, hock, knock, stock;
But, it takes one to know one's love.

Enduring The Storms of Life

A petal falls from a
flower
quietly to the ground

a tree limb dries up
breaks off, falls away
enduring the storms
of life..

Ships sail off to sea
enduring many storms
along the way fights
to maintain

returning to port,
enduring the storms
of life...

Without Sorrow

Get bravely through the day
That is full of the pain's ray
And know that there is tomorrow
That can be without sorrow
So why waste it now
Thinking the why and how
Of everything happened today
And in your life's way
Just look with hope and cheer
And overcome your fear
And know that there's tomorrow
That can be without sorrow.

Dr. Evil

Evil, evil is his one and only name
Evil, in his mind there is no other game!
When your name is Evil, that is good or so you think,
but you're so very wrong.
It's evil!
But being wrong is right, so then you're good again,
wich is the evilest thing of all...
Do you find his sudden ways, invite you? does he excite you?
If his contradictions should atract you, should he distract you?
Heaven help you then...
You're finished, it's the end...
There'll be no retrieval...
From the evil...
The evil,
he will
do.
He's evil,
he's Doctor Evil.
His name is Evil.

But if, if you take a look at what would have happened, I mean, do we need to see soup lines down the street to figure out what would have happened? We avoided - and all economists will tell you that millions of jobs were saved because of the Recovery Act, and we avoided a second Great Depression. That, that is a reality.

Evil is YOU!

Everyone says,
I’m evil because I beat my sister,
I’m evil because I took drugs,
I’m evil because I went to prison,
I’m evil because I cheated,
Well Guess what!
You’re not evil,
So chill,
You’re the core of evil,
You represent every part of evil,
And…..,
So is your dark side,
Your devil!

I'm A Believer (With This Known)

Take your evil self away...
To lie and hide liar.
Liar.
I am not inspired,
By your lies.

Take your evil self away...
To lie and hide liar.
Liar.
I am not inspired,
By your lies.

'Cause...
I'm a believer,
With this known...
I'm here to grow,
With this known...
And I'm not gonna stop,
With this known...
To woe,
With this known.
And I am here to overcome,
Obstacles.
With this known.
With this known.

And with this known...
People will lip,
With this known...
To deceive.
And unknown is their evil.
But...
I'm not one to give up,
Because I'm a believer.
And with this known.

Take your evil self away...
To lie and hide liar.
Liar.
I am not inspired,
By your lies.
