PEACE WEED
Obnoxious weed in our garden
The most pungent odor ‘Racism’
Black curse till the soil and water
Blooms in full glory the ‘Hatred blossom’
Every dawn to dusk we breathe death
Killing in the name of color or
faith
Thus have we grown to it so immune
Bodies lay scattered we walk
unmoved
Brothers and sisters children on
the same planet
Racism a pun, discriminate and
eliminate
Is freedom handbills littering the
street?
Or the dead bodies strewn as
butchers meat.
Not until we sing psalms together
We love all for their content and
matter.
Stop judging nations and skin color
Consider racism as the most potent
terror
The day is not very far when we
plough again
And peace weeds grow come next
rain.

MACABRE RACISM
Racism a product of prejudiced
society
The ghastly wound bleeding humanity
Foolish misconception of callous
souls
Unsound yearning to stifle peace unfolds
Bill approved , treaty signed in a
government office
Sheets of paper can their conduct
suffice?
The sold out politicians secretly
agree
To suppress few voices that opine
to sign decree
Money can buy even voices in favor
We silently watch, wait down the
alley for terror.
Can't differentiate between black
and white
Locked in the dungeon with no
flicker of light
With each gruesome passing day
For an angelic light we pray
To kill the delusive macabre demon
Which feeds on humanity with many
brutal teeth of incision.
Only prayers will not help I tell!
United we stand and this demon we
quell.

RACIST OFFSPRINGS
Children born now aren't fed milk
They are fed hatred instead
Color-blind ,only see black and
white
So meticulously taught to segregate
Growing up demons,gargoyles and
cretins,
Give up toys with guns to play
Hide and seek with inner soul
Gasping to inhale decaying bone
Slaughter in the name of freedom
Synthesis of barbarism begins at
home.
Spreads like wildfire conflagration
in rage
chars all black does it secern?
Realities left, realities
fabricated or left to fate
Ignorant conscience preach color
and religion .
Time to breed progeny of human not
pseudo being
Or else start writing history books
on humanity.
