The Eternal Sons and Daughters

 

The Eternal Sons and Daughters

Within their souls, where time stood still, in grief, bravely holding, back the tears,

There is the spring, the fount of sadness, now forever found, for many, many years.

That silent place, where pain will rage, caught within, the love and loss they hide,

The battle ground, where they would love, to set all their sorrow free, upon the tide.

From their broken hearts, where so much anguish now persists, at times unchecked,

In the sea of sadness, broken on jagged rocks, a significant part of them, wrecked.

Haunted by an invisible scar, that only they can sense, and see, an eternal strain,

Never ending, brought down in battle each day, as they wish away, the awful pain.

Floundering in cold comfort, heartache, the cruel world brings, with no forgetting,

For one that they miss, the restless soul forever lost, its precious life, never setting.

The mother’s grief, we cannot imagine, for the beloved part of her, that she has lost,

A father, who has lost his child, left wrestling with empty dreams, an awful cost.

The sibling, with its childhood memories, bound by the familial bond, now denied,

The family wrenched, in fate distraught, with emptiness, in broken hearts deprived.

Bound together, as they try to mend brokenness, with time marching on, ahead,

Past each evocative moment, through tearful phases, the jagged rocks, they dread.

Another birthday, another Christmas, those very special moments, never forgotten,

That evoke the pain inside, raging yet again, arousing mixed emotions, feeling rotten.

Yearning, the nightmare departed, the past in destiny different, all the pain resolved,

Freedom from wrestling with all the pain, the unpleasant weight of grief dissolved.

Once grief has placed its grip, on each stricken soul, there is no escape, nor respite,

With relentless precision, cutting deep, any time of day, stalking in the dark of night.

As they alleviate the pain, content to think, that the lost have gone, to a better place,

Away from the realm of agony, all bruised and battered, where their life was erased.

It is better than dwelling in haunted places, within stricken minds, of sadness bound,

To a place in their minds, a peaceful sanctuary, where the fond memories are found.

The Matrix of Mindless Orcs and Spies

 

The Matrix of Mindless Orcs and Spies

Within the convoluted Matrix, there stand, destinies doors, forever closed,

Through them, only the chosen ones, the privileged few, may come and go.

Locked within the Matrix, exists the other breeds, deprived, and disavowed,

All the exits locked fast, freedom strictly forbidden, progression disallowed.

Lost in the place, of distant dreams, ranked well below, the exclusive few,

Living in a penal world, branded bottom feeders, in the disenchanted brew.

Poor scouring the maze, of corridors, of time, in futile search, of an escape,

To discover a much-needed chance, struggling, and toiling, while they wait.

But the gatekeeper, remains rigid, forever vigilant, denying hope, in time,

As they languish, within the chaos created, by the ignorance, of mankind.

 

Caught in the dictate, of evil power, of grab and take, tyranny indisputable,

Lives traded, within the sacrificial slaughter, insignificant, fully expendable.

The Matrix knows, lust, envy, and sloth, are the greatest weaknesses of all,

Designed to rule, over the misshapen masses, burdens set, to make them fall.

It controls destiny, placing hurdles in the way, the parasite sucking them dry,

Locked in prison, within each tiny cell, inside every mind, blinding visions eye.

Poisoning, and corrupting, the purest of thought, contaminating simple minds,

By decree, absolute control over lives short lived, and death met in jagged lines.

Undisputable power, culling challenging thought, and any oppositional stance,

Minds being subliminally altered, and despondency, setting them in a trance.

 

Each morning, back at the beginning, the rut getting deeper, nothing new,

Fixed in whimsical thought, earnestly wanting their dreams, to come true.

Eyes locked, gazing through wishing windows, with bizarre visions embraced,

At the end of each day, their dreams erased, their enthusiasm gone to waste.

The fanciful dreamers, shall never see, the light of day, all blinded by the sun,

Each tedious step forward, by two steps back, mindful tranquility, never won.

Time dragging, in endless repetition, each wave of darkness, eradicating hope,

The walls of despondency closing in, hordes of lives, strangled by Satan’s rope.

Impoverished within denial, a dreadful drought, of fortune, and destiny missed,

Knowing the anguish, of loss, and pain, all too well, and every tortuous twist.

 

Honesty, all in vain, the ever-repeating cycle, stealing each opportunity, away,

As compassion, and humanity, hold no rank, and goodness, continues to stray.

Each wondering what, destiny has planned, what lies install, around each bend,

Fruitlessly searching, as time is devoured, precious lives lost, before the very end.

Some looking to God, in hope of salvation, their prayers set in trust, and love,

Scouring their souls, though the answers seldom come, from the almighty above.

Meditation and prayer, rekindling hope, probing to see, if they are in God’s plan,

Keeping the score, in their checkered lives, restively awaiting the promised land.

The leading question, so difficult to comprehend, when abject poverty is so real,

Is God, truthfully out there, watching over them? Or a universe as cold as steel!

 

They search in vain, and the Matrix stands fast, uncertainty round each bend,

Endless repetition wearing them down, resigned to failure, anguish without end.

For freedom lost, in unjust penance, in lives forced to live, by burden weighed,

With the painful debt, the way they were born, lives of wretchedness, cruelly paid.

Living in fear, and uncertainty, under the misshapen rage of tyranny, is the cost,

Becoming the burden, in restless souls, creating malevolent spirits, that are lost.

Compelled to silence, and submit, worn down through fear, and cruel intimidation,

Conceding to the evil power, forced submission, creating an inert Androidian nation.

Lives strictly censored, kept under incessant surveillance, through the looking-glass,

Born into poverty, by the will of the matrix caste, never to rise, above their class.

 

Young souls enticed out of the web, slashing the journey short, cutting life concise,

An early escape, an expendable asset of the matrix, forced to fight, to pay the price.

And if they are unwilling to fight, and die, made an example, beaten, and abused,

Then brutalized, and sodomised, and executed point blank, when they still refuse.

Every bloody battle, bringing the gutless stain of genocide, fought to the very last

Destroying any aspirations, the poor souls hold, to the future unseen, and the past

Wave upon wave, the mental madness binding, never ending, fed with discontent,

Lives purged; fresh cannon fodder created, from the cruelty of perpetual torment.

The spoils of war, leaving its broken ruins, where majestic civilizations once stood,

Precious artifacts trashed, the malevolent force, deliberately destroying all good.

 

Turning lives to dust, and dreams of fantasia sought, into glorious illusions strayed,

In denial fabricating a parallel world, beyond the grip of death, by grief assuaged.

To blindness turned, by anger driven, to the bitter taste of revenge, sorely sought,

Then in guilt, struggling to defer the inevitable, making silent promises for naught.

Through confusion, the smog of depression setting in, in griefs unforgiving pain,

As hurt and anguish are resolved, with acceptance, the weight of grief, lifted again.

What will rise from the ashes, be borne upon the wind, in the desolate state of dust,

For countless generations to come, left to harbor the awful thoughts, of mistrust.

Where the lost spirits, restlessly search, for a place to haunt, perhaps a new host,

Where all hope of freedoms speech is hushed, and paradise is haunted by its ghost.

 

The endless trek, inside matrix walls, impregnable ramparts, impossible to climb,

Plodding into uncertainty, desperately holding on, till each mourning bell chimes.

Does a place exist, beyond the Matrix, where weight of time, does not matter,

A place of paradise, where freedoms spirit reigns, within all who humbly enter?

If by providence, they find an unlocked door, leading from the tortuous condition,

A way out of the nasty web, that holds fast, a pathway to escape the dreary prison.

If all the walls, and all the doors, ceased to exist, bestowing a harmonious space,

Transforming the nightmare, to an enchanted kingdom, ending the traumatic race.

No more clutching at threads, at the mercy of the fortunate few, who look down,

Past the syndrome of hopelessness, where so many broken souls, have drowned.

 

As the pagans unlock, the forbidden doors, to spirit worlds, where malice hides,

Only to find no exit, from eternal torment, trapped where ghostly beasts abide.

The wayward souls, like empty shells, placing trust in luck, and in accidents,

Mindsets foreign to faith, content to live, day by day, where fantasy ferments.

Bound by temptation, lured into the chasm of lawlessness, extortion, and rage,

Turning water to mud, blacken to ash, dreams to dust! In the wars they wage.

Some grabbing short-lived bursts, a feeling of paradise, in hopeless addiction,

Taste of sugar, drugs, alcohol, and smoke, emptiness, pleasuring their affliction.

Committing awful crimes, fueled by drunken stupor, then thrown into the can,

The mindless misfits, Orcs bred in abject hell, brutal beasts rendered from man.

 

The Matrix content, to expand even more, as it tightens its grip, on each nation,

Brainwashing people, altering minds, wicked politics, of trans-functional oblation.

One race, one culture, one spoken language, one way stipulated, to rule them all,

Content to manipulate, and dominate, to construct more matrix doors, and walls.

Vile sickness set, to rule the world, the matrix hellbent, on augmenting its disease,

Invading other nations, annexing each state, bringing other cultures to their knees.

As it spreads its raft of lies, all founded on mistruths, the people kept in ignorance,

Casting the seeds of freedom, into the ruddy fields of war, without a second chance.

Rendering whimsical illusions, that hide the darkness, of its web of lies, and deceit,

Spreading Satan’s blight, his abysmal Trade mark, resolutely creating cannon meat.

 

Each population placed under siege, by artillery guns, rockets, and bombshells,

Cities collapsing, into craters carved in earth, as the ground heaves, and swells.

Panic brought to peaceful streets, sirens loudly screaming, the sound of thunder,

As the Devils generals free more Orcs, from prison cells, to rape and plunder.

Civilians caught up, in waves of terror, unlikely to survive the needless torture,

Innocent children, and little infants, bearing witness, to the ruthless slaughter,

Maternity hospitals targeted, taking the brunt of force, in mindless infanticide,

Civilians being rounded up, bound, shot in the backs, in acts of pointless genocide.

The world left wondering, what madness would bring, this insanity to flashpoint,

Political division, set inside a large nation; an authoritarian regime, so disjoint.

 

The stark contrast, the aftermath, heralding the unpleasant stamp of change,

As each place is purged and bleached, any hint of different gone, rearranged.

Darkness brought, to every place destroyed, all beautiful things stripped bare,

An increasing network of corridors, implanting unspeakable misery everywhere.

All nations forged the same, imposed by the matrix supreme, in power absolute,

The face of fascism, so unkind, its slaves matter not, hope in freedom destitute.

The self-appointed saint, angering God, by wrath of death, and griefs ugly brand,

Stealing lives, freedoms rights, the paths to paradise, all the souls he hath damned.

The cult of darkness ever growing, as it divides and conquers, all diversity known,

Expanding its wicked empire, out of the hatred, that it has broadcast, and grown.

 

In the celestial stars above, perhaps the greatest miracle of all, to man, life on earth,

Perhaps by chance, or the divine destiny, of a majestic force in the mighty universe.

Mankind, left thinking in awe, questioning the inconceivable, often times spellbound,

Does life exist, beyond earths stratosphere, amongst the radiant stars that abound?

How far does life extend, out into infinity, beyond planet earth, the motherland,

Does something exist, beyond the grave, in the spirit world, we do not understand?

Does paradise exist? Are virgins really waiting? And any other constructed delusions!

In blissful ignorance, followers left to theorize, an array of philosophical conclusions.

Blindly proceeding, as mankind destroys goodness on earth, in mindless competition,

Ignorant to paradise, in nature bestowed, that man desecrates, into an ugly rendition.

 

Still, the gatekeeper does not loosen his grip, his network of spies, subvert in league,

As the lower class suffers, within the chaos created, subjected to his dreadful deeds

Driving the world underground, to be ruled by the extremity of madness, and insanity,

Preying on any weakness, creating fear in each mind, exploiting innocence and vanity.

While the gullible fervently believe, all they have been told, caught in the web fast,

Fighting under banners of death, for fantasies created, by fanatics, in false forecast.

As the Prophets conjure up paradise, their followers hardwired to explosives sacrifice,

Content to die as martyrs, placing faith in misconceptions, in an alternate paradise.

Each day confined to the cold corridors, null and void, its unwelcome empty spaces,

Caught in a lock, ignorance breeding more poverty, that the Matrix piously abases.

 

With the pure act of love, and being loved, running dry, extinct within the dreary void,

Suppressed emotions, overwhelming wrath, heavy hearts weary, compassion destroyed.

Remembrance the burden, laid upon hearts, in the sacrifice of war, of freedoms price,

Grief, the overwhelming weight, brought by bitter memories, of the pointless sacrifice.

Little consolation found, where is goodness drowned, in those who profit from the loss,

Stolen from paradise, with the grand illusions of mortal sacrifice, life a selfless cost.

Content to breed, abject poverty, mindless demolition, in all the God forsaken places,

Poor peasants, desperately forging iron in foundries, and chipping away at coalfaces.

Kids slaving in dirty factories, packing munitions and rockets, mechanically enslaved,

Living in the psychophysical vacuum, sad expressionless faces, despondent eyes glazed.

 

While outside the matrix, unparalleled wealth exists, for the chosen ones, in privilege found,

Above the sullen clouds of poverty, and discontent, where unparalleled opulence abounds.

Beyond the dust and dirt, the soot and smoke, grunge and grime, the wretched destitute,

The squalid slums, and rundown shantytowns, loathsome prisons, and places of ill repute.

In paradise bought on the backs of the poor, in blood, and sweat, the lowly mortals tamed,

The predators, the scavengers, and the bottom feeders, the other races sullied and shamed.

Large mansions of marble slabs, with gilded filagree, and elaborate frescos on ceilings tall,

Majestic entrances, leading to double staircases, crystal chandeliers hanging in grand halls.

Great chambers fit for royalty, elaborate furnishings, in elegant living rooms, painted gold,

Such wealth, affluence, entitlement, and aristocratic privilege, a sickening sight to behold.

 

Obsessive and compulsive, gluttony and greed, the gate keeper holds the key to all the doors,

Fenced behind the razor wire, protected by his partners in crime, planning conflict and wars.

His loyal henchmen, and coconspirators, carrying out his commands, all affiliates to the pact,

The horrendous crimes they commit, the innocent lives, and families, that they have wracked.

The heartless beasts, that spread the lies, the fearsome force, that preys upon the vulnerable,

In cold-blooded acts, pleasured by their psychopathic deeds, their brutality inconceivable.

The gate keeper turning his evil eye, to his vile genocide, his narrative, and actions evasive,

Brainwashing his followers, his genetic cesspool, his sadistic tortuous methods very persuasive.

How in heavens name, does God allow this insanity to happen, the victims question, “Why?”

The ungodly acts, executed against humanity, the matrix destroying paradise, in their minds.

Who Knows

 

Who Knows

Who knows the price, of freedom fought, the battles won and lost?

The place of eternal pain, sad lessons taught, who knows the cost?

The heartbreaking paths, that in awful grief, troubled people tread,

The journey, constantly gouging pain, where young hearts have bled.

Mothers plagued, with numbing thoughts, burdened to their grave,

For sons and daughters, of sacrifice, lost souls, they could not save.

Brave soldiers of war, who have paid the debt, for freedoms cause,

Their lives forfeited, owned by another, hell bent, on waging wars.

They will never own the freedom, the romantic visions, of paradise,

With their destiny, spirited away, for someone else, to roll their dice.

Born to die, on someone’s battlefield, long before they weary grow,

Desperately fighting, for someone else’s sick dreams, blow-by-blow.

Inside each watchful eye, the measure of courage, is never the same,

When life or death, is within their reach, fought in freedom’s name.

Each day, over again, as they say their last, perhaps a silent prayer,

The solemn ritual repeating, their future, and fortune, set in the air.

Living under, deaths veil, where each soul, has solemnly surrendered,

All their dreams, the life, that they will never know, totally upended.

Uncertain, what each day will bring, or when, deaths bell will chime,

As the angel of death, reaches out, plucking their souls, calling time.

Perhaps their medals will hang, above the mantle, in place of pride,

Or concealed in a secret place, where sad evocative memories hide.

Never seeing, light of day, inside the badly broken hearts, distraught,

In the never-ending place, locked inside, the sad emotions wrought.

They sold their souls, to freedoms cause, caught in the army ranks,

And others will follow, in their steps, to all of them, eternal thanks.
