Nature Destroys Nature

Nature destroys Nature in storms and earthquakes
Man destroys man on the battlefield
And man destroys Nature because of the blood that they shed
Sinks, to the center of the Earth
Man destroys Nature far more worse
Than Nature destroys it’s self

Therefore we must do
What we can
To save Nature
Before it’s completely destroyed
And therefore,
Leaving us with nothing to cherish.

I am Qalme Tari Mistress of Death Nat. Norville.

Martin Luther

War is the greatest plague that can afflict humanity, it destroys religion, it destroys states, it destroys families. Any scourge is preferable to it.

Hate Destroys

Hate destroys
The one that births it
It robs one of joy
and peace, forfeit.

Hate destroys
A chance to forgive
Its claws employs
The heart to grieve.

Hate destroys
The people around
Creates a ploy
As conflict abounds.

War! War! War!

War! War! War!
Is all that people talk about.

War! War! War!
Is all that people think about.

War! War! War!
Is all that we hear about.

War! War! War!
Nobody cares for what it deos.

War! War! War!
Nobody listens to warnings.

War! War! War!
Nobody hears the cries of pain.

War! War! War!
Nobody hears the cries of death.

War! War! War!
Is a nasty thing.

War! War! War!
Blood drenches the Earth.

War! War! War!
It goes on for generations, forever, nerverending.

War! War! War!
It destroys lives.

War! War! War!
It destroys hopes.

War! War! War!
It destroyes dreams for peace.

War! War! War!
O how I hate it so!

A kola nut is small, but it is more important that it goes round to each person and not that it fills the stomach.

Man and Child

Inside every man.
There lives two people.
Man and child.

It is the child inside of the man.
That grows his compassion and love.
It is the child inside of the man.
That let him lead with his heart

It is the man inside of the child.
That gives him the strenght to care on.
When all is seem to be lost.
It is the man inside of the child that understands.
One man right to stand alone is just as great.
As one man right to stand with many.

Inside every man.
There lives two people.
Man and child.

Kola

Is this how marriage is? !
Then, i have to chew my own kola and be very patience;
For there are many things for me to learn on this muse,
And like the songs of the musicians that i hear.

Opposites~

Black & White,
Complete opposites,
Yet they look so beautiful together in a picture.
Love & Hate,
They are all around us,
They create our everyday lives.
Peace & War,
Peace is what we want to have in our lives,
But we get war because peace is shattered so easily the slightest wrong destroys what we have for peace.
Opposites are all around us
We don't always see them,
but they are always true.

Heart Retires

When the heart tires and the throbs are recalled,
Thinkers pass their souls in instants that retire;
When the arrow falls and destroys the broken body
Hands are clasped, yet for ever are parted,

To the lives sundered can Time bring rejoining,
Adoration is a throb of rejoicing, in rejection
When rejecting is the opposite of our lives,
But the spirit remembers, to the sense of losing.

The Evil inside

War.
War is everywhere.
War shows no mercy, no relent.
War takes and destroys.
War is outside your door, in your streets
and
War is inside you.

War Can.....

War can begin at anywhere on this earth but,
Sometimes it doesn't end up at the same place where it started.
It is like the bush fire at times which,
Stars at a very small place and then spread all over!
It burns and destroys and,
War kills and destroys as well! !
But when can we end up all these wars around us?

Rat 3

you must have heard about what they are saying.
i say, you have seen shadows cast on the walls of ignorance.
my hands are not birds.
they tell you that they are scissors.
my face does not have gentle eyes
did they tell you that what i have are raging balls of fire?
i have heard what you have heard too
that in my world there lives the eye of the storm
that in my orbit, there is this path that destroys
every passer-by
or even the innocent traveler,

i am tired of all these
shadows and shadows

they have not gone deep inside the oceans of my being
they have not felt the gentleness of my sands at the bottom
they are wrong
but in my silence i do not wish to correct that impression.

i know myself and that is enough
instruction at the gate of Delphi
where Tiresias is waiting.

Inside Out

Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Now everybody keeps on telling me how to be
And everybody tells me do what they say
Oh Ill help myself its up to me and no-one else
But till Im ready just keep out of my way
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Now everybodys got me running round, up and down
And here I am going out of my mind
But I wont lose sight of all the, the things Im looking for
Theyre coming to me and Im taking whats mine
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Ill play the game
Well make the same mistakes
Its all the same
If we can give and take
Hold on, hold on, ooh
Hold on, hold on, ooh
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
All of my life Ive been searching and hanging on
Turning a corner, never know what Id find
But now Im back again like I never went away
Ooh let me in Im through with wasting my time
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Oh inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out

Thorned Thorns

Remorse is not my hunting course, what i do is always planned, you will not idea the clue - The moon rise, inside my soul, victory has not won, there is no prize - I never bet on the one to loose, rather crash your cash in a bin before you think of a win - Thorns of the thorned in the side of my bed, thorned thorns destroys what is the dead inside my head - Will i go, where, will i stay, there, born to be left with right, the choices with too many noises
