Napalm A Moral Burning Agony: Napalm Use In War
fly by death from sky predators
from biplanes to bombers jets;
rockets atomic to smart bombs drones
soon to be controlled by hand phones;
a new fashion emerged during Vietnam war conflicts
fly by death from sky indiscriminately slinging bullets;
at innocent farmhands soon to be bad rebel insurgents
understandably collateral damage boasted recruitments;
hearts and minds lost pissed-off rebel native survivors
shot at from canopy safety of bullet-resistant cockpits;
rocket-throwing demon whirlybirds that blew up homes
while zooming in upon tick prey flesh and blood targets;
napalm lit up the landscape carpet bombing killed cockroaches
with undesirable communist ideology fast cured tendencies;
pleased with research backroom boys at Dow; US army sources
original napalm wasn't so hot it was scraped off by quick gooks;
burning in agony trying to preserve their lives in their lands
just adding polystyrene made napalm sticks like s-hit to blankets;
but if salvation water was saving grace close by; in target areas
jumping under water stopped napalm burning for lucky gooks;
blessed to live on with hell fire flesh eaten serious burns
blackened roasted bombed again among friendship corpses;
white phosphorus was added to inhumane napalm recipes
evolution perfection makes napalm B burn better relentless;
just one dropp is enough discovered our research Dow boys
it keeps right on burning through flesh right down to bones;
phosphorus poisoning will kill any chance gook survivors
original napalm usually burned for hell only 15 to 30 seconds;
napalm B enhanced test boasting can burn for up to 10 minutes
chemists at Harvard University first develop synthetic napalms;
to burn Germans Japanese during 1942 for U.S. Armed Forces
Dow Chemical Company proudly surpassed Harvard efforts;
manufactured napalm B from 1965 to 1969 for US armed forces
news reports leaked describing napalm B's deadly disfiguring effects;
were published poor Dow Chemical experienced customer boycotts
of all products its recruiters chemical engineers produced leapers;
International law evolved prohibits use of napalm incendiaries
not against military targets but against civilian populations;
United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons
CCW in 1980 banned use against innocent civilian populations;
Protocol III of the CCW restricts use of all incendiary weapons
many states have not acceded to all restrictive CCW protocols;
who signed CCW but did not sign protocol III the United States?
Do unto others as you would have others do unto you consciences?

Napalm Star
You're the Napalm Star
Climbing ladders
Hopping across platforms
Running the many distances
Hang on to the rail
Hang on to the side
Blast away evil
We're waiting for you to weather the storm, Napalm Star
Myself as well as many others
The mavericks know who you are
The mavericks would love to make you a part of the stars
We're counting on you
Napalm Star
You're a good one

Self-Immolation Petrol Sprinkle Sacrificial Meals
burning with self fire now need to get sacrifices done
for people carpet bombed napalm burned nowhere to run
self-immolation petrol sprinkle with sacrificial meals
people targeted with no knight champion to rescue lives
when day night rain fire comes flesh burns never survives
we bronze monks setting self on fire peace protester screams
killing sacrificial victims is an old tradition modern bombs
burning with napalm fire ashes in wind were once eyes thumbs

NATO Policy Sows Napalm Dreams
flesh continues to burn
fools continue to buy
shares in foreign oil wars
as phosphorous replaces napalm
as NATOs hot missile of choice
for burning up men women children
civilian collateral damage
totally their fault for living in
lovely prime oil sand lands
when NATO war extends
united nations no fly zones
into their houses buildings
a dozen civilians
killed for a single
dug in soldier is
good math to advance
sortie sporty attack keep
oiled war on schedule
got to get those oil fields
pumping secure black gold
at resource ripe any cost
in deleted former Arab ally land
while covert beast born in the east
masturbates over shame ill gotten
disgrace noble peace prize illicit
as fake as infamous birth certificate
black ops sending in crack illicit
troops puppet string starting
controlling new wars while sly
ordering high tech SS style
cattle wagons from China prepared
for future solution to protesters
after spawn satan seed is reelected
to office spun solutions all sold
in name of policy homeland
security enemies master created
according to new master plan
lightening is falling from the sky
Hitler's successor preordained
is already planning global world conquest

I'm An Idiot
what a dumbass i am
I can't even rhyme these words
What a dumbass i am
I love napalm death
Even though napalm death sucks
Sucks large balls
Megadeth is way better
I hang out in malls
I'm an idiot
I watch looney tunes
I'm an idiot
I don't go to church
I'm an idiot
I like to smoke chairs
I'm an idiot
Shoot me please
I can't get a girlfreind
Because i suck
I like to screw goats
What a dumbass i am
I'm an idiot
I watch looney tunes

I dont go to church

I like to smoke chairs (don't ask me how)
I'm an idiot
Shoot me please!

Napalm Dreams
napalm dreams,
burning flesh amid cries,
student protestors shot down....
flags smolder, stink like freedom
whored out for change....
and now again,
the great planes fly,
dropping death and liberation
o'er ghostlike oil fields...
too many questions....
lined up like cattle,
and shot.....
in the name of homeland security,
in the name of profit and loss...
their profit, ... our loss!

Fingertips Naked!
tis the day of lovers,
yet the world is ablaze!
gunfire, and bombings,
with machine like hands.
bodies broken and scattered,
mouths that quiver with hunger.
so many alone in the fury,
even the walls have names.
do you love me?
your eyes betray your heart.
be it gravity or madness,
that throws us together.
now destiny wears flesh,
the wind lives inside bones.
stop the lie, cross the bridge,
you have only one home!
napalm to phosphorus,
ice turns to lava...
fingertips naked,
rewrite the moment!

Reflections On Fahrenheit 9/11
I can smell the raw tangy scent
of will drying in my hand
I see the shape of dreams
Escaping the bowels of the fields
Like a thick swirl of smoke from a
Tire factory’s chimney
What is life but a flash of light
A bomb can easily put out
Until no one hears a town’s last cry?
No one listens to the orphans’ prayers
Having seen too much, too early
even infants know the meaning of mortality
For life is but a slave
To a conscience run amok
For the price of every dropp
of blood of the innocent
is a heavy pocket from firearms
and napalm bombs
“No war, no weapons business!
No mutilation, no murder!
No murder, no war! ”
Grand dreams weaved in the brains
Of small bodies
Barely out of the womb
Become evanescent shades of themselves.
(11Sept06)

Foreclosure Packing
Vietnam era workers,
three bedroom brick,
and a basement...
laid off, sold off,
401k gone....
Buick in the drive,
repossessed!
foreclosure packing,
Kent State and Nixon,
Reagon's America....
financial moral collapse.
the smell of napalm lingers
in houses left empty!

Conclusion fusion
Considering the facts…wars, poverty etc
All we do and act…protests, requests etc
May not turn out to be exact…sorry bad timing
But don’t you worry my friend…I’ll be by your side
Cause there’s always…forever and crap like this
An open window…turn on the heater
For you to react…not with nukes, napalm bombs and tanks
And not become destiny’s fact…life’s what you make it

All War In
Barricadded behind wall of human nature
Each sequestered in thick sense,
Man is but reason in ruin....
Human bomb self blown revenge gloated,
Human heads topple napalm bloated
For cemetery to honour the fallen
And arches to celebrate victory-
Wages he not war with the enemy he sleeps
-Mind's blemishes...conquered only by arm of love,
What's an inward war without bloodshed,
Compassion armed without wielding weapons,
Narrows the forts into a neighbourhood.
Peace is higher ordeal of life's quest
than battle ever knew
What's liberty in tranquility.

Your love is a war
You embraced me
and held these cold hands
you faced me
when I felt I was so distant
with you I was lost
in unfamiliar land
you came then ran
like the war in Vietnam.
Your love is a war, your love is a war
a war which I don't miss any more.
You left
I didnt know why you was leavin
burnt from napalm
you didnt need a reason
you dropped an atomic
before I could resign
blown a hole in my heart
yet you seem fine
Your love is a war, your love is a war
a war which I don't miss any more.
You aided me with utility
away you went
leaving me alone
fighting in this trench
they dont take prisoners
so when they come
be loyal, grant me mercy
and use your gun.

Hammer Purged By Rust!
in cursed dread
with iron thoughts,
the rebel plows his fields.
neath napalm skies,
infested by drones and crows,
his hands are bound by time.
tis murder by execution,
truth revealed by blood!
the carnal cross,
the skulls of dreams,
and virgin bodies for seed.
who pays the price,
who tames the beast,
the child devoured by wolves.
with flags betrayed,
by human conscience,
and gods that shed acid tears!
and the sound of voices swells,
till the earth trembles and shakes.
faces drawn on tombstones,
with crayons made of flesh.
do we pray with tongues
stricken by disease?
do we kneel or dare we fight?
freedom's just a remembered thought,
and justice stinks of lies!
yet still the rebel casts forth,
with seeds stolen in the hour of need.
pulling nails from grey casket lids,
with a hammer purged by rust!

A Hint At What Is Beautiful?
Beautiful is the 'thank you'
Wrapped with gratitude,
Offered to peace prone people
Who go out of their way
To nurse shrapnel scalded victims
Amidst napalm drugged air,
Carrying their humanity, quietly
And humbly, in our
Blood stained, greed diseased,
Hate eaten world.
Beautiful is the moment,
When the heart indifferent
To joy or sorrow, just trusts
Whatever this life brings
But finds time to just be.
