it does not sail,
it does not prevail,
but it is irritating,
it stops my creating
it is though very irritant,
like a policeman’s arrestant,
i wanna shout out
very very loud
why this crazy censorship,
that has no sails nor a whip,
censorship
in this early hour in my township….
only God knows my suffering heart
for my poems a most important part
thank you so much for your understanding dear Poem Hunter
No, tonight we’ll have no thunder
great thank you from my frank heart,
you are my most important part

I know you love me
I love you too
I knew it from the start
that you love me
The question is now
do I still love you?
This is a message I can never give you
say i don’t love you anymore
I am always happy as a child, also to love you
but oh, that child has now disappeared
so suddenly the child no longer loves you…
I find that a great tragedy
that love can disappear and I see you languish
between all that unhealthy surrounds
I don’t know how, but the air in your country is so polluted
the government does nothing about it
just like all residents are executed
all the money in their pockets, and you among the other wrecks
the government just proclaims ‘healthy’ government
it does nothing to make their air pollution healthy
Yes, your government is not doing anything to make the environment healthier
you are caught like rats, that’s my vision
no permits to foreign lands, my love, where will you strand?
for the people there, I don’t mention your government
your sorrow, also my sorrow
although our love has faded, perishes,
but a healthy life still needs to exist
our children’s song
roses wither, ships perish
our love, oh our love has not perished
but does not seem to be able to exist
now you believe in God
and I’m sure you’ll be happy on your spot….
