Soldier with a gun, stood firm, didn't run. Knew the risk at hand, but still made a stand. Took an oath to defend, fought until the end. On a grave alone, name etched in stone. Now a soldier gone, resting final throne. Down through time, soldier true sublime. Fighting soldier lay rest, fought and did his best. Now spirit in form, soul forever from harm. Still a world at war, soldier sublime star. G

New Poetry by OnepoetGem *the Poetic Rapper

I once heard this preacher say, "I''ll preach out of a paper bag if I have to." I feel the same about verse.

Paper Bag Poet

From the wishing well, minusing the devil''s hell.

I Wish U Well

Roses are red, thorns prick instead, depending on the head, or what is later on said.

Thorns End

The world is full of angry pissed off people everywhere, here and there, and some really don''t care. They have anger to spare.

Pissed Off People

Life is a sweet and sour affair, so take a deep breath and find some fresh air, that is if you dare or really care.

Deliver Us From Evil

We need oxygen, aka air, no matter what it needs to be there, however life at times isn't fair.

Lung Answer

and likes, whatever! Oh yes, the racist and bigots are here too, just like in regular society.

Peoples Dislikes

"Be happy for what you escape!" A Trask quote got me to thinking, and inking.
