Why We Fight pt 1 (Lock and Load)

You’ve walked out the garden and watched your hands go

From picking up berries to picking up ammo

The same sticks and twigs that build up your village

Fight off the conquers and plunders and pillage//

-Stones and sticks and sticks and stones

Gather them up to protect your home

And when needed use them on some bones

Lay them all down to outline your zone

Raise them and burn them on your throne

Monsters can’t outrun the sticks and stones-

1 million years BC (lyrics)

They're calling me,
the creatures of the nigh,
Beautiful music,
Animal instincts survived,
the serpent tongue,
so ancient before the dawn of time,
Spread throughout the ages,
On the blood of mankind.

I've seen it all.
From grace man falls,
Babylon, curse of all creation,
Winged serpent of the pit,
Monstrosity.

Ten thousand centuries ago,
Cast down from heaven,
To pillage below,
The serpents eye,
Still watching for it's easy prey,

The Age of Rothschild

Welcome te the twenty first century
Over population critically
Dwindling resources exponentially
Earthquakes, disasters globally

International bankers secretly
Control Government, State, Monarchy
Jews, Freemasons despotically
Rape and pillage humanity

Terror, Revolution the normality
Those o peace accused o insanity
Wars manufactured deliberately
Te satisfy a greed, satanically

Christ denoonced as heresy
Patriotism ootlawed as treachery
Taxed and enslaved by 'Company'
Welcome te the twenty first century

In Name Of God

In name of God they pillage and destroy
And in name of God they chose to fight and die
And their enemies their enemies because
They worship different God with different laws.

When I was young a wise man said to me
That God belong to all humanity
And that god could only feel disgust and shame
When humans for their war cry use his name.

It's religion that cause the great divide
And in name of God far too many have died
They go to war and worship God in song
But the God they fight for condemn war as wrong.

And even in the twentieth century
We've yet to learn from past history
Still in God's name men go to war and die
Whilst God looks on with disapproving eye.

After Ventersdorp,4 April 2010

In storm language the wind talks
blind full of thunder
that draws blue lines
over the tar road
and the Jacarandas wriggle,
washing on balconies are jerked
and now angry
the wind howls and cries
and I see lightning bolts
slamming down near the Union Buildings.

Rows of maize fields greet me
where the knobs stand green
and there’s no peace
coming from the greeting

and in vain is waited on the murdered farmer
and somewhere there are cattle bellowing
but not for long anymore
as the slaughterers

The Dusky Wood-Swallow

Surely must you know me,
Friendly and content;
All my actions show me
Freely confident;
With my band of toilers,
When the blue days smile:
Little Jacky Martin
Come to stay a while.

Every town and village
Knows me, every farm.
Mine no wish to pillage,
Mine no will to harm;
Busy in the orchard,
My pest-destroying band:
Little Jacky Martin
Come to lend a hand.

Suddenly appearing
In far forest land

Unmistakable Certainty

Those who have decided,
To annoint themselves 'The Chosen People'
With a dictation of policy for humanity to follow...
Must not be getting any sleep these days.
Since their hypocriticisms,
Are creating nose bleeds all over the place...
From the fast opening of once closed tight,
Closeted doors...
Those self righteous hid behind.

And they are finding themselves on foreign shores,
Assisting in the spreading of more of their havoc.
And those of other cultures and beliefs,
Are showing with unmistakable certainty...
They've have had it with philosophies,
Deceived with racist bigotries.
With a wish their 'interests' would disappear,
From their lands with purposes to pillage their resources.
Clever disceptions are no longer embraced to feed exclusive greed.

Malicious mankind

When we take a life we feel nothing
And if we do we do not show it
We spill blood on the floor and more and more
Yet still we do not know it

We steal lives of our own in bags soulless sewn
And yet we try to conceal it
We make weapons of war with a steel kit
Their bitter cold we do not feel it

We take our suffering, grief, and sorrow
As means to fulfill redemption
When were not on this earth tomorrow
All of it is just repention

So ignorant and vain we forge our forges
So arrogant with no gain we pillage our villages
We sit idly and suffer while hierarchy gorges
Our bane is hesitation our savior is diligence

The Flight of Peace

TRUST and Treachery, Wisdom, Folly,
Madness, Mirth and Melancholy,
Love and Hatred, Thrift and Pillage,
All are housed in one small village.

And if such be Life’s mix’d being,
Where may Peace from ruin fleeing,
Find a shelter and inherit
All the calm of her own merit?

In a bark of gentle motion
Sailing on the summer ocean?
There worst war the tempest wages
And the whirlpool’s hunger rages.

In some lonely new-world bower,
Hidden like a forest flower?
There too, there, to irk the stranger,
Stalks the wild-eyed spirit Danger!

Blood River (In Answer To Don Mattera)

Maybe forever the blood river remains red
as a token of the thousands killed,
who came to destroy, plunder and pillage
while they madly were beating their war drums

like they did to Piet Retief and his men,
but by His almighty hand God intervened,
helped a tiny band of civilian men
with flintlock weapons to defeat

the tens of thousands who rushed with assegais
and killing batons upon them
and when the British army faced the same enemy
years later with Martini-Henri rifles at Isandhlwana

and with many more men formed an unbreakable square,
that square buckled, was swept away
while death came to them

but still thousands of white people in South Africa
