I would like to live long enough to one day see,
the many people in this world sharing harmony,
caring for all, not just those they see each day,
sharing all their burdens freely and also some play.
Will it take a millenium or more to reach that state,
or can we wake everyone to take this dream and make,
a world fit for our brothers and… Continue

In that ideal world which I will never see,
would I find the rules revolve around me?
No I think that they are best equal for all,
with none at any other's beck and call.
For as long as there be slaves and underdogs
so will strife remain to break down those cogs
that otherwise could run a smooth society,
with everyone able to get home for tea.
While the few continue to abuse their power,
the losses for others mount hour…

Walk boldy to my dreams at night,
take my hand and hold on tight,
let us travel in ways that days deny,
no costs to consider, even if we fly
Our passports will be of pure fantasy,
universal visas will permit every destiny,
just as man should always be,
free to roam, forever free
Cast off all constraints within our minds,
seek and find and meet folk who are kind,
then take that dream back into day
and…

The day will come when I do not
rise from my bed but stay in that spot
perchance to dream if not to wake
a heavy slumber I will never shake.
Some say that science may soon bring
such longer life as yet unseen
two hundred years with health unchecked
may be their goal but should we expect
the splitting of the human race in two
the sub class just like me and you
the wealthy buying decades to find
some other…

Watch his sturdy Mistle Finger poised
to flick the bell and make some noise
his message would soon be sent to call
the many needy girls and boys who all
deserve a treat as much as our very own
and their chance to become fully grown.
For all the world is equal in the eyes
of true justice unmarred by sinful lies
what need is there for us to buy more
junk that fills the many advert boards
while cousins we have not once…

Don't dream of star lit summer nights,
unless I'm there in the scene with you,
take all the time you wish to pine,
for days which we can share anew.
All time we spend without a touch,
without our voices sending cheer,
are hours and days we may regret,
as times we have wasted I do fear.
For it is every lovers dearest wish,
they ever can hold each others hands,
and in their minds and hearts they know
only other true lovers…

How I wish the whole world was so sage
as to put aside all mistrust and rage,
instead arrive at some common ground
where solutions to our woes could be found
The endless cut and thrust of lies
has seen so very many folks demise
but who has stopped to analize
what profit ever came with all those cries?
The useless waste of modern man is plain
the failure to learn from all our past a shame
If we but only knew our onions well
sage…

If I could send this heart of mine,
across the seas, & freed from time,
could we then spend eternity,
finding true ways for peace to be,
more than this dream that we now share,
but a deeper bond made from pure care.
One bond to end the need for doubt,
as all would see what it's about,
the need that all on earth should know,
points out the way for mankind to go,
and…

JOHN
John the artist played at a pace that didnt slack
He was a bold young figure, the leader of the pack
Quarried in that Mersey town and crafted into rock
Solid from the outset, his band was hard to knock
More talent than the many other groups that were around
The Beatles got the world to dig their Mersey sound
Apprentice served in Hamburg, playing thru the night
The brought a blend of soul with rock in which to delight
Helped by Please and…

The borders of mankind are not those we see drawn on maps
but simply the limits of our travel and any acompanying mishaps.
For many centuries that has meant the globe we have spread across
but now other planets we do seek to venture onto without loss
As mankind seeks a better way to travel on through space,
perhaps he will then remember we are all one human race,
and not alert another planet to the wars that still occurr,
for such a weakness may seem to…

West whispers that come from the few,
take an overpowering view,
fanned by media and political spin,
but do they reflect honesty within?
Eastern breezes carry some hard
words in anguish from souls so marred
by turmoils begun long, long before,
many deep wounds from a distant shore.
Healing won't come from more bullets and knives,
that only ever leaves more grieving mothers and wives
Sanity shows clear when peace is planned…

A new year dawns as many before,
will 2010 bring what we ask for?
A peaceful future that all can share
with the wealthy showing that they care?
In my hopes as ever that would be the plan
for without compassion what distinguishes man?
We may have tools and brains to embrace
technologies to help the human race
But if those minds just persue all with greed
then we ignore those with more pressing need
For food and water would be such a…

Sure I don't have so many answers
and I'll never know it all that's true
but if you want I'll share what little I have
for sharing is what I know we all need to do
Add all our answers together
with all the questions we must ask
far too much for a solo my friends
joined hands must complete this task
Love and flowers ruled the sixties
that scheme was drowned by the flood
when drugs made so many minds weak
to commerce both bad and…

Last Runes Cast - by Rhumour
Face down in the mud, he paused before he rose
Women pay a fortune and I'm covered to my toes
Back among the runners, he tried again to jump
Over the high barriers, but he really got the hump
When soon for the third time he took a mighty fall
'You'd think that after all this time my feet would now play ball'
Some weeks went by before he had to go and seek some help
With pains rising up his legs that often…

Friends of many nations
We gather here to say
Let's act together as if
We're one big family today
For all our children's futures
Should be held in our own hands
Not bartered by some business
Or maimed by armies on our lands
This world is large but finite
We have no more room to grow
The food we need for all to eat
Must come from what we sow
And if we divert our efforts
From battles over dwindling oil
And…

Negative News is here again
Vibes of malice somehow reign
As those that buy from the paper stall
Encourage the desperate to commit all
Their acts of terror and violence
Knowing that headlines will commence
To publicise their cause and bring
More to take their side in sin
For crimes against one innocent
Are horrors we must aim to prevent
Let's join together in peace that…

I just read a message that informed me
This is 'Random Acts of Kindness Day'
What a splendid notion I must agree
One I can endorse most wholeheartedly
If all people were to do just one such thing
It would make such a great difference
That all the world's birds might sing
An extra song just to celebrate
Surely a thought to ease all back from hate.....

Exposure
All the pretence of innocence
The rules that one invents
Laws that must be seen to be
Beyond the reach of devilry
Those in power can circumvent
As they like, with full intent
Legal eagles can but try
To keep your vision from the lie
All in all I wonder when
We truly will have freedom again
Twisted knots of red tape can
Imprison every once free man
Number six once held the key
The…
