LOVE AND HATE

Incomplete without you

We both share wordens four

Prototype of rival foe

In a quest who become the major four

In a game of chess

The board pound heart with cardiac unrest

Seeking how to erased one chest

In a sweater vest

Knowingly stress gym best

Proven mortals wrong

Only one overshadowed the rest

And love put to test

As suckers love hate

Always in a protest

Of who to win the contest

Archifoe in a royal rumble

But though love overshadowed hate

In this we must reside in love gate

Knowingly the universe fate

Will come like an insightful date

Without segregation neither rate

DISASTER DAY

Shouting of unheard voice

Profound fecundation

Of yearly foundation

Haters of humanity

Instigate a civil strife

Causing lives properties thrive

For years barren for day

For road to destruction is narrow

And quick leaving home

Families and land deserted

Like the unification of the Jews

And the bomb acrylic crystals anew

Aglow in planetarium

Distortion it is disaster day

Famine like Malthusian's theory

Curbing the world be with inhumane treatment

So Darwinian full with smiles

But the plane measurement is Cartesians miles

For I chose the left plane

Mine pen mensurate

I am not barren

like Sarah my words multiplied

Scorching sun to make bedeviled heart plied

With sermons of a demeanor poet

Who sought for peace

In the world torn in piece

So extremophile

Be erased in the heart of hatist

TRANQUILITY FOLIAGE

She wraps me

Abounding sympathetically

With devouring hypothetically

Tussle of quest

Where whistling rust of leaves

Turns dryish yellow

Mapping borders across below

Ushering taming low

Across globe

Tranquility foliage

Lies even though her tentacles

Blink foilage

We bind to create receptacles

Of broken heart spectacles

So mirrored a tainted generation

To address ways to gain a brood foliage

That covers our hatred nudity

So we embraced our tranquility

With much ado taste of unity

Letting go our long history of diversity
