Raymond Farrell Poems

We are
What we read
What music we listen to
The entertainment we pursue
...

The Canada of my youth
Prior to the rise
Of Pierre Yves Elliott Trudeau
Was prosperous and debt free
...

This new religion
Who's theology involves
The systematic study
Of secondary effects
...

Poetry is
Anything
And everything
It seems
...

We should mourn
We should hang out heads in shame
As human beings
When we contemplate
...

It was the spring of 1985
Everyone had just
Shook off the winter dregs
The snow had melted
...

After World War two ended
Leaving 55 million dead
In its wake
All hoped peace
...

In the day
None stumble
From lack of light
The light of the sun
...

What you think
In time
You will speak
If repeated
...
