Ray Lucero Poems

A name is more than a name
His true self lives in plain sight
Name reveals from where he came
Unscrambled letters bring to light
...

LOVE expressed through forgiveness and compassion is the only truth

Use the touch of your hands to heal
Use the sound of your voice to create
...

It's best Akhenaten, to hold thy tongue
Let Sarah’s own deeds determine fate
‘Tis vipers thou and thine walk among
Waver not from truth, thou advocates
...

Minds n' hearts do get broken
*Walking Wounded everywhere
Lost in sewer...subway tokens
Of God within, they’re unaware
...

My friend, I’ll tell you in advance
Please, don’t look at me askance
Love’s not mere happenstance...
For you to enjoy true romance
...

It seems you choose to go afar
To distant lands, exotic places
For heaven's sake don't use a car
Because oil barons hold all the aces
...

Fear and love, are principal emotions
Lesser ones from these opposite two
Fear’s blacker than the deepest ocean
Love’s where soul seeks a rendezvous
...

Congress gave Bush 185 Billion more
Until end of 2008, financed Iraqi war
Continues then more blood and gore
Then nukes Iran, for a deadly encore
...

Bush kissed Saudi Prince on both cheeks
Promised enriched uranium to his friend
While the horrid stench of 911 still reeks
Where 19 Saudi Terrorists met their end
...

He toils over fire fueled by coke
Forging a fine Damascus blade
Coaxes, cajoles, at last invokes
A sacred fire totem…unafraid
...
