Don't you DARE read this! (naked pics and nasty words involved!)

I have to say that posting poetry is much better than posting vitriol.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/vitriol">vitriol

2: something felt to resemble vitriol especially in caustic quality;
especially : virulence of feeling or of speech � vit�ri�ol�ic

Congrats, GD-P! You are moving forward... ;)

Let's keep it going! :loveya:

'War is Too Easy'

by David Krieger, February 2003

If politicians had to fight the wars
they would find another way.

Peace is not easy, they say.
But it is war that is too easy �

too easy to turn a profit, too easy
to believe there is no choice,

too easy to sacrifice
someone else�s children.

Someday it will not be this way.
someday we will teach our children

that they must not kill,
that they must have the courage

to live peace, to stand firmly
for justice, to say no to war.

Until we teach our children peace,
each generation will have its wars,

Will find its own ways
to believe in them.

'Election Day in America'

by David Krieger, November 6, 2002

Most Americans chose not to vote.
By their absence they voted against the system.
They thumbed their nose at democracy
And democracy thumbed its nose back at them.

By staying away from the polls
They assured the continuation of corporate power,
Privilege for the few, and obscene military might
To defend this power and privilege.

Most Americans who did vote
Cast their votes for one of our two military parties,
The Democrats and Republicans, assuring
The continuation of our country�s war machine.

By our absence and by our votes
We again ratified power over reason,
Privilege over justice, and corporate greed over
Fundamental human rights and dignity.

Surely, if only we had thought more about our world,
So weighted down by weaponry, war and poverty,
We could have done better by our democracy
Than we did this election day in America...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Speaking the Truth in times of universal deceit is a revolutionary act."
~ George Orwell ~

American Mourning Poem

by Maxwell Corydon Wheat, Jr.

http://www.bringthemhomenow.org/what/latest.html

'Coming Home'

In catacombs of military transports
destined for Dover Air Force Base,
loves, beliefs, ideals, plans:
Hancock Community College,
University of Miami,
New York Police Academy,
weddings, children,
barbecues, baseball, bass fishing-
All lidded down inside caskets
carefully, caringly covered with The American Flag

25-year-old Marine Corps Corporal
St. George, Maine.
Sailor, rock climber, stargazer.
on dance floor, " . . . like a magnet."
Loves lobsters, mussels-
All lidded down inside casket
carefully, caringly covered with The American Flag

30-year-old Army Private First Class
Tuba City, Arizona.
" . . . young, a single mother and capable."
Her boy 4 � her girl 3.
Woman proud of her Hopi heritage-
All lidded down inside casket
carefully, caringly covered with The American Flag

20-year-old Marine Corps Corporal
La Harpe, Illinois.
High school football, basketball player,
lifeguard at health club pool,
lifts weights,
going to be a physical trainer.
Joins Marine Corps Reserve
to pay for studies at Southern Illinois University-
All lidded down inside casket
carefully, caringly covered with The American Flag

21 year-old Marine Corps Corporal
Gallatin, Tennessee.
Nurses dying mother with his humor,
dresses in clown costume for nieces' birthdays.
History buff, reads fat books about generals,
presidents, Revolutionary War-
All lidded down inside casket
carefully, caringly covered with The American Flag

http://media.2theadvocate.com/images/Peter+Graham_031307.JPG

24-year-old Coast Guard Petty Officer
Northport, New York.
Wife, three months pregnant.
Wants to be a policeman like his father.
" . . . the kind of person that you fall in love with
the minute you meet him," a friend says-
All lidded down inside casket
carefully, caringly covered with The American Flag

A father, a mother grieve for their only son, an Army Specialist.
"He wanted to be an engineer," the father remembers.
"He wanted to set up his own business when he got out.
And I says, 'Amigo, I'm waiting for you to get out
so we can put up our own business.'
And all that, well, you know, is history."
The Major General carefully, caringly folds The American Flag,
places the nation's ensign into the mother's hands
