Paul Warren Poems

Do you dream of me as I dream of you
When you close your eyes what do you do

Is it kissing me while the passion shines through
...

The grapes of wrath
Are on display
Please help us God
Is our faithful plea
...

Children have to be taught
To hate others without tolerance sought
So we see children holding severed heads
And in uniforms of hatred instead
...

What are you running away from
The faster you run the harder to get along
For if the person chasing you this day
Is yourself then you will never get away
...

Lick and stick your silver spoon
Hey - it will make all the girls swoon
On your forehead to see it straight away
It's where you came from in your way
...

There's a distance sound
That I hear coming 'round
It is a rustlin' and a huslin'
As the management go musclin'
...

As I live on in this world's endless time
Will I be able to leave something behind

When my end has finally come
...

Is death the first and the last enemy for us
Or is the silent war for always with no fuss

There are uncounted ways to die
...

Life became unbearable for the young man
And to take his own life was his final plan
So he went to the side garage that night
And hung the rope from the rafter good and tight
...

Has the fire in your belly
Been quelled by a grey sky
Going from horizon to horizon
As it rains down upon you
...
