Just found out there was a poetry forum.

I'll post a few I write for my own website under the pseudonym "Dissident".

Questions

When the hour is late
When they've sealed our fate
Will you stand with your brother?

Will you run?
Will you come undone?
Will you hide?

Will you keep the beast fed?
Sleeping in your bed
Watching their TV.

Let them take another right.
Out of mind is out of sight.
Nothing to hide, nothing to worry. (right?)

But will you always be this cool?
What if they make a different rule?
And it's you they don't like anymore.

Then its time to stand or hide
no more easy ride
How will you go out?

On your feet or on your knees?
Either be slave or be free
One choice or the other.
-Dissident

1. another about the 3rd anniverary of the Iraq war

3rd Anniversary

It will be a war of days. We have the ways.
The means and the power.
This will be our finest hour.

WMDs?
None that I can see.
No mushroom cloud, just funeral shrouds.
The people cry out loud.
The Generals say “we’ll do you proud”

Those with eyes, will see the lies
As another man dies.
As a mother dies
As a child dies.
Hey, they were probably the bad guys.

Mission accomplished?
No more fighting?
Not what the reporters are reciting.


We’d be done in days and months
Now it’s two thousand nine.
No peace in our time.
How can we allow this crime.
Our country is broke.
So we’ll fix Iraq
What a fucking joke.

Occupation is liberation
Death is democracy
We’ll pass out bibles
And show you a real theocracy

So drink the bloody libation
And let us build your nation.
We are war. We are death.
But you should thank us with every breath
