You chase us into the darkness
with your hateful touch
but we still manage to see the light.
You anger us with your harshness
we used to run freely as such
now we are awake all day and night
Infecting our compassionate humanity
with your wicked ways
leaving separated and socially distanced
Yet we forget our prideful vanity
seemingly hiding away
not forgetting who we are for an instance
So many sweet sorrowful deaths
now taste of the earth
as many mourn hearts dearly broken
So many sacred souls holding their breath
red crosses since birth
for the heroes proper words cannot be spoken.

I have been writing poetry for 44 years. I began writing poetry when I was 15 years old and to this date I have written over 16,000 poems. I have had poems published in The San Fernando Journal, The Rag Mag, WYRD, The Cultural Reverence(e-magazine) and in Kiiroo(e-magazine), Mobius and the World Peace Anthology. I have over 1000 poems published in all. I also have a poetry page on Wix.com entitled anemotionaljourney.com. I also have written a Science Fiction/Fantasy novel entitled "The Blue Sphere" and I am currently working on two other books at the present time. One is entitled "The Angel and the Witches and the other is "Once Upon A Halloween"

A beautifully express poem about the truth and where we, as Americans, stand or fall as we plunge into a hellish place led by the devilish man called Trump – the wanna be dictator of America, no longer the free.
