Chris Lane Poems

Ik heb enn spacebook-
Profiel gemaakt waarop ik mijn foto's,
video's en evenementen kan plaatsen
en ik wil je als vriend toevoegen,
...

When Jehovah's truth sayers
stopped by to tell me, The Truth:
I debated with them their logical
New World Translation, biblical understanding.
...

The Recent Surge helped reduce the insurgency.
Children died – Mother's wept wildly, Wives lost husbands, husbands lost wives
Children orphaned in a moment quickly stripped of any innocence or comfort they had known
...

Lost and wandering tribes
scattered they were like dust in the wind
now have been gathered together again.
...

Dealers in broken arms
laughing all the way to the Bank
even though it is Saturday, it didn't matter,
for them the Bank was open - anytime.
...

Dislocating indigenous populations by herding them into refugee camps
within their native homelands has not proved a viable option
when it comes to refugees embracing colonialism
...

Abraham's division stood poised
Ready for the kill
For god had given his children (based on abstract mythology)
The right to reclaim the lands once deeded to them.
...

Sleepily from its lodge
Marmota Monax did appear
Searching for its shadow
in this chilly morning air.
...

For You My Love
On Valentine's day.
Even though we're separated
by thousands of Kilometers, my thoughts
...

You were there on the breeze and touched me again
Reminding me I will always and forever be
A part of the World that We both exist in.
