Randy McClave Poems

If I were a turtle,
I would need not ever run a hurtle.

Slow and easy would be my pace,
...

Violence begets violence I do believe
Which is the reason why I still grieve,
With revenge or violence I will not ever retaliate
I will not seal my own destiny, and fate.
...

Make love and not war
We've heard that saying once before,
We even heard about giving peace a chance.
But, try and try as we may
...

I am all alone ever since she had died
There's now an emptiness deep inside,
Will I see her again, that I do not know
I don't even know, where to go.
...

I sadly say goodbye to Mollie
After she had painfully left our world,
There is no sense only melancholy
As hate at her was hurled.
...

I drank one drink for her to love me,
As I definitely loved her
I toasted a cheer for it to occur,
Now I will just wait and wait and see.
...

At the cemetery I visit my family and friends
Final lodging where their destination ends,
By their graves I will always say a personal prayer
And it always is, I wish that they were not there.
...

Look at my hands
Then look at my face,
Can you not truly tell
That I am part of the human race.
...

God; are you there
Do you still listen when I pray,
If you still do, I need you Lord
There is so much for me to say.
...

They cheered the president when he arrived by plane
Even when he had caused both death and pain,
The streets were crowded as was almost every block
Racists and bigots gathered together like a deranged flock.
