Spare The Rod

Don't love Daddy cos
he’s mad cruel one.
Who uses buckled belt
to smack stinging bum.

A lesson anger lashed
in frenzied intolerance.

Teaching frustrated right
enforced with maniac might.
Not a lasting heartfelt
love of morals learnt.


Violence only teaches
who is the strongest
not who is morally right
domestically the worst
parental role models.

Domestic violence
must be community viewed
with social intolerance.

After Burn

Your name. Your name. Your name.
Drives me. Drives me. Resonating Insane.

Destabilization. Dark bitter. Sweet game.
Eros exalted exhaled force fractured pain.

Male Myth Busters

It is a society cultural myth
violence inflicted is not
exclusive property domain
of prime male predator?

female ignored violence
so often shame swept
under convenient carpet
sometimes both parents

beat long suffering
victims their children
tag team wrestling
in circus ring perfecting

thrown bodies bouncing
to angry energy beats
screams of hidden silences
haunting fatalities prolific

Jumping Puddles

On a cool spring evening
saw cocooned young girl
skipping skipping skipping

while her mother’s blood
was dripping dripping dripping.


Not mashed
musky stench
stencil-plating

failure foetus
plastering out psyche
aberrant aborted spleen.


But razored edge
editing adult life.

Give Into Hate

Violence surrounds me
Violence in society
Violence in our eyes
Violence in their cries
Violence it's our fate?
Violence, it's too late?
Violence, no escape?
Violence, give into hate?
Is it human nature to act like animals?
We're all guilty, we're all criminals
Selfish species headed for a self destruction
Violent product of moral corruption
Violence for love
Violence because of hate
Violence, revolution
Violence of the state
Violence, you will find
Violence, it grips your mind
Violence, it's too late?
Violence, give into hate

Nearly one in four women will experience domestic violence during her lifetime. And slightly more than half of female victims of domestic violence live in households with children under age 12.

A Lesson In Intolerance

a lesson in intolerance
begs remedy solutions radical
a lesson in non violence
political solution unacceptable

when possessing biggest armies
most modern advanced weapons
temptation is to invade nations
who possess resources empires

are most readily willing to spin for kill
invading smaller nations at fleet will
innocent victim blood collateral spill
corpus greedy corporations cash fill till

Dictators Nationalistic Drumbeat War Rhetoric

it is wise
before commenting
on the merits

of a cartoon
to hold
the tongue

view the cartoon
ascertain
all intrinsic merit

wisdom inherit
within themes images
classical themes

may contain
great wisdom modern
cartoons may prove

more repetitions
bang bang meaningless
images of violence

once masters
of wisdom instructed
in great tales

of wisdom now
hollow reads spawn
violence to sown

crafted violence

Reverse Racism

reverse racism back lash counter swing
pendulum momentum counter swings
racist evil deeds sow hate bigotry dark seeds
reverse racism racism in reverse
racism justifies not reverse prejudice intolerance

justifies not torture killing men women children
hate breeds hate war breeds war never evens score
circles of violence cruelty bias narrow-mindedness
taught at mothers fathers knee will not set us free
hate violence imprisons souls who can love enemies?

Assyrian City Nineveh Repents

Jonah disobeyed fled toward Tarshish
because knowing God to be gracious
merciful, slow to anger, and abundant
in loving-kindness, regretting calamity.

Jonah knew God would forgive regret
his decision to destroy Nineveh a city
of more than 120,000 men domestic

animals living in spiritual darkness;
not knowing the difference between
their right hand and their left; between

good and evil. Jonah by God was forced
to voice God’s forty day warning and thus
Jonah 3: 1-4.
the king of Nineveh ordered a great fast.

All wore from greatest to the least
sackcloth, none ate nor drank not,
man nor domestic animal; all the men

called to God with strength repented
of bad ways violence of their hands.
God turned back from his burning anger

felt regret spared Nineveh did not perish.
Jonah 3: 5-10.
What moral by Jonah’s story is taught?
Jonah’s story teaches obedience necessary,

without question, to obey the will of God;
taught a willingness of spirit, gratitude,
compassion God’s grace patience mercy.

Violence means violence

Violence means violence and that
Has a dangerous precedence.

Violence can not counter violence
Without the equipment of non-violence
That has a appearance in the
inner heart of soulfence.

Masterman Sonata

The world was made for us
And we belong in this world
But this world is very violente today
And to tell you the truth I don't even know if the violence in this world will End
But I have the feeling that we will never be able to live in a world without Violence because the only thing we know is violence
And we never learned anything else than violence
But I believe some enjoy the violence and they welcome the violence Into their lives

What Is A Terrorist Sarah Palin?

No a terrorist is “somebody who uses violence,
especially bombing, kidnapping, and assassination,
to intimidate others, often for political purposes”.
Julian prints truth, the public, has a right to know?
From proven sources, like journalists, newspapers.
Unlike American intelligence community accurately.
The meaning of terrorism is defined in a dictionary.
As reportedly once a journalist should not Sarah know?

The definition of terrorist used, was quoted directly from the Encarta Dictionary: English (North America) .

Violence

(tennant/lowe)
----------------
The sons and brothers, fighting for another cause
Anything to give their lives some meaning
Busy with their guns and dreaming
Far away from here
Said they would act (said they would act)
In self-defense
And all the others, running 'round so hot and bothered
Anything to give their lives some meaning
In the evening
Running around with guns and
Said they would act (said they would act)
In self-defense
With violence
Violence breeds
Violence
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Violence breeds
Violence
(ooh yeah, violence breeds violence)
(ooh yeah, breeds yeah, breeds yeah)
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
The son and brother, when he gets home
He gives someone some love
And mutters: "woman, (mutters woman)
You'll never understand (never understand)
I did what i said (did what i said)
In self-defense
With violence"
Violence breeds
Violence
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Violence breeds
Violence
(ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
(ooh yeah, violence)
(ooh yeah, violence breeds violence)

Violence can only be concealed by a lie, and the lie can only be maintained by violence. Any man who has once proclaimed violence as his method is inevitably forced to take the lie as his principle.

Human Shields

So much violence in our name
Our lives are silence, masked in shame
Children running in the streets
Soldier boots are on their feet
Mother bare the burdens of our defeats
Fathers are on their knees praying for mercy
So much violence in our name ...
Holding me like your shield
So much violence in our name
Our lives are silenced, masked in shame
No more
No more
No more ...
Holding me like your shield
No more violence in our name
No more violence in our name
