Self Inflicted
Mother natures anger can be seen in many ways.
Most vividly are the episodes of extreme weather we have these days.
It can't be any clearer how she shows her disgust,
For the rape, murder and pillage of the Earth which to us was trust.
I will tell you that the penalty for these crimes will get stiffer,
As long as those who listen to opinions about mans effect on change differ.
Now that we've cast what has been, the most important Presidential Vote.
Of this hefty weight, It's the US the most will burden before the World will lend in tote.
But, when I look at our face of example, I still see nothing short of scary.
The world sees a divided nation who's own weight it can not carry!
So, what extreme weather must now we be hit with,
Before we all agree that mans effects are not just a myth?
Millenniums in the future, Alien archaeologists, our remains they Will exhume.
They will ponder on the extinction theories, I wonder what they'll presume.
Like the Dinosaurs before,
Our species will be no more.
These Alien scientist's in their labs, our bones they will explore.
After carefully viewing the outcome, they will run the tests again,
Searching the universal data base, they find nothing close in kin.
You see in billions of years of life forms deriving from Quasar,
They'll debate with heightened passion, and stipulate this case is Bizarre.
At the conclusion, they will struggle to understand,
You see, never before has a species, become extinct at its own hand.
Final deduction?
It was self destruction! (Joram 08)
The Republican National Convention
Drill Baby Drill Yah! The voices of the people chant, drill baby drill!
This is what they ask for
this is what they'll get.
This is how to feed their addiction,
this the only way
they will get their thrill.
Drill baby drill!
But, admist those screams and shrieks
that pack the barrier of sound
to it's fill
I hear a whisper in my ear...
a voice so soft and sweet
why should I fear?
It makes my skin bump
and my hair stand on end!
I'm cold from the chill this voice stirs.
The voice drowned out for now,
but it will be heard.
I promise you it will!
So, go ahead and chant...
DRILL BABY DRILL!
CLIMATE STRANGE
Hotter dryer earth in dire.
Colder and wetter wont be better.
Death and destruction, it's the devils induction.
Sea levels rise, it will be our demise.
Death by thirst, global drought.
Bird flu wont be just a bought.
Diseases and famine, it's too late to examine.
Temperatures soar with every sunrise.
This is it- It's human demise.
Reaching for "space" it's the final race......It's the end of earth in any
case!! Joram 07
I Refrain My Distain For The Stupidity Of The Animal With The Largest Brain.
Copulate.
He pops,
She is late.
Increasing our need,
Another mouth to feed.
We con,
We grate,
We congregate.
We cut down to build up.
We rape the land in our need to expand.
We choke ourselves with our own hand.
We dig
We mine
We extract
With little concern for its impact.
Science researches,
The facts are told,
But no one is buy'n
So our poles warm as the cold is sold.
What appears so very obvious to me,
I attempt to illuminate
But still too few can see.
What is happening I fear will not cease, The fires, the floods and quaking at earths' crease.
It seems it will continue to be.
Until, a day when dawn breaks
And the earth is void of you and me.
There's a Bush at the White House who's trimming is long over due.
It has shaded us in an attempt to obscure the truth.
Its shadow will linger, our intentions thought to be dark.
Has jaded world view.
Now is time we think of the many,
Not the whims of a few.
If for all of us there is to be a future, It is obvious what we must do.
Put aside our petty differences,
What will be seen is how similar are our needs, me and you!
We must push a side the leaders of today.
Who hold office to serve themselves and a selected by them few.
The right was wrong in using America and its might to fight.
Leading us into battle believing incorrectly we were fighting for what was right.
Time for our country to take a hard look.
At the mistakes made by the right.
Then take a hard left.
The revolutions of the past were bloody and protracted.
But, today it wont be.
We were left the power of the Constitution and its laws our Founding Fathers enacted.
To protect you and me.
The time has never been more right for the needs of many to be met.
Tomorrow can't be faught today
And it makes no sense to fight over yesterday.
Today is the day to fight back like there's no tomorrow!
If we are lucky we will win tomorrow in the fight today.
Therefor tomorrow they'll be no need to fight. (Joram 08)
DIG BABY DIG
More lies,
Dirty our Skies.
The constant need to feed our greed.
The Ice is receding because we are not re-seeding.
The population grows,
Slumbering and lumbering;
As we continue to doze.
All the while Big Oil and Big Coal blind us with their snows.
We can no longer say, "Where will this take us nobody knows."
It's a destination that is now, so oh very clear!
A change in direction or our end will be near! Joram 2008
Adaptation = Perpetuation
The drought of love coupled with the searing heat of hatred can wither any life.....
It's not the tree that stands tall and proud against the fury of the wind that remains, It's the one that bends recognizing the power, but not succumbing.
I am, therefore I MUST think.
Question everything for everything is not what it appears.
With every answer, a multitude of questions come to light.
The more you have, the more you need.
Your rich by what you can do without.
I've never been as wealthy as I am today.
My happiness has always come from my soul, It has never been effected by the actions of those around me.
But, I now find I'm effected by the lack of actions of people around me.

Its in the russell of the leaves, and the chadder of branches perched
high among the trees.......IF only we would listen..
Another day is about to commence.
Mother Nature dawns an unearthly smile,
In response to our meddling our vile and our test tube smile.
Agriculture and urban Life,
Two destructive concepts leading to "mancruels" strife.
Ignoring and over-ridding as if to say,
"We are the bosses and we are here to stay"!
Wind blown dust bowl; cracks the very Earth to its soul.
Fueled by arrogance and apathy.
Just wait; the earths winds wisper.
Just wait and you'll see. Halloween 07
OVERTIME
Searing sunlight burning bright,
The signal; the end of dark silent peaceful night.
The children at the windows peer,
parents confused; paralyzed by fear.
The children want out from the walls, like jail.
Anxious for release from incarceration.
Bats and balls, one kid with a pail.
Running and jumping outside they want to play.
But, because of the climate; inside they must stay.
The pumps of gas are at critical low,
Finance, markets and economy are slow.
Item by item greed fills our facination,
An insatiable hunger - more globalization.
America has dropped the torch, by allowing China to carry one.
Athletes like children, look forward towards the fun,
That's because they are naive to the pollution in which they'll run.
Turn right, turn left which way do we go?
Our choices are limited that I know.
The future is uncertain,
For that I'm certain.
Supermarket produce is on the list,
As endangered as some species,
My sorrow I resist.
The masses are hiding their heads in the sand,
The apathy that unites use must disband.
A new consciousnesss is a must,
The skeptics who number few,
We can not trust.
Schools are closed; education no more.
Sports are over, 0 to 0 the final score. Joram 07
A BURDEN OR A BLESSING (only time will tell)
A thousand piece round puzzle has been laid upon my table,
I wonder what it will reveal the truth or just some grand fable.
The box in which it came in has mysteriously disappeared, Maybe a completed puzzle is something to be feared.
But as I find two pieces that fit neatly into place, I begin to feel in some way this effects the human race.
When I try to walk away, as I often attempt to do, The gravity of it's concept keeps returning to my view.
It makes me question my own sanity, I know you all do to.
But, one thing for sure, the worlds I no longer do.
