Today I Meditate On Peace

Today I meditate
on peace ~ calm crystal clear
water tranquil still
reflecting the sky
like a mirror
in clean pond,
pool,lake and sea.

I contemplate
the ease,satisfaction,
benediction
shining in good kind
words,acts,deeds and feats.

Today please remember
to live in the 21st Century
and not in the 17th Century
or backwards in time
when wars were waged
over religion,race
or supremacy of tribal
dominance or group think.

Given the option
I choose fame
fragrant as red roses
radiant in tender bloom
against the blame shame
ill,evil,sorrow and wrong
of war!

Better that I embrace
kindness,goodness,happiness,
the warmth of love,
the comfort of family
hearth and home
celebrating golden moments
of hearty laughter
with dear loved ones
and sincere friends.

Yes, I treasure
the boon benefit
of peace,progress and prosperity
and dislike
the bane bestiality of war
regression and poverty.

I would rather devote
resources to promote
peace as fundamental condition
for human civilization
evolution into Great Global Humanity
rooted firmly
in True UNIVERSAL LOVE!

This means I must strengthen
magnanimity,meritocracy and multinationality
(the 3Ms) as my legacy for all
everywhere to love one another
helping,sharing and caring
to build a better brighter
greater greener more gracious
world for the future generation.

I advocate peace against war.

I remember the doctrinal ferocity
of medieval fallacy
when the sun was thought
to orbit around the earth
or the conceits of self-righteous
wars of religion
or the farce and folly
of fascism,nazism and racism
that caused the terror
of the two world wars.

As a global citizen
I call upon all
wherever,whosoever
and whatever
the religion,race and nationality
to live in peace and harmony
putting aside differences
stressing the importance
of common ground
placing high value
on mutual respect,
tolerance and understanding
in peaceful co-existence.

The world is a happier place
when we appreciate and understand
the merits of peace.

So I shine
the new prestige
of the humble peacemaker
in the New Millennium.

I mediate peace
urging all to ponder,pause
think and take
proper steps
to resolve misunderstanding
and solve problems amicably
to put an end to conflict and war.

May all everywhere
in enlightened common good
prevent the calamity
of war with the will
to live in peace!

So go blow
the trumpet
of peace NOW!

Behold the vista
of joy
free away from death's woe
when we overthrow
the tyranny of fools
busy in crazy evil wrong low.

May all fight the foes
who betray the leadership
trust and abuse the power
and influence
by upholding
WORLD PEACE
RIGHT NOW!

The Puppet Dictator


The Puppet Dictator
(One Act Play)

Scene One:A large gathering of journalists.
local and foreign,armed with the latest sophisticated
television cameras and audio-visual gadgets, are assembled at a grand hall.

There is an air of anticipation of what is going to be the world's next big breaking news story.

The assembly stirs as a bearded smiling macho figure appears and walks briskly to the rostrum and greets them.The spotlight is on this man as he speaks.

Listen Dummies
To Me, Your President!

Hear My Story
About A State Called Sorry
Promoted As
The Special Religious
Wonderland.

Alas,It's Now Worse
Than Neverland
For New Media

Are All Blocked
To Stop Blasphemy.

And Foreign Journalists
Are Docked
To Prevent Heresy
And I Warn
Them to Mind
Their Own Business -
Despite Public Outrage
And Street Riots
Erupting Louder
Than Gossips
Whispers
Carrying Gory Tales
Of Arrests
Secret Happenings
All Kept Hidden
From Public Scrutiny.

Believe It Or Not
Sorry Masters
Try To Hoodwink
Everybody
By Holding
Presidential Election
To Re-elect Me
Their Puppet Dictator.

They Make A Real Grand Affair
Of It With Televised Debates And All -
Showing Democracy is Well And Alive
In The Name Of God And Religion.

So They Got Almost All
The People,Especially The Young,
And The Whole World
Worked Up And Excited
To Choose A New President.

Huge Crowds Flocked
To Polling Stations
Like Queuing Up

Of Humanity Turnout.

With 70 Versus 30
Percent Landslide Victory.

And Horrible
In Our Sorry Democracy.

The Chosen Ones -
Beloved Brothers And Sisters -
Sane and Sensible
United Against
Foreign Imperialism.

The Seven Or 15 Deaths
Ah,They Deserve
Their Fate
For Their Stupid Stubbornness
Now Leave The Streets
And Go Home
Like Obedient Sheep
Our Supreme Leader
Has Spoken And Made It Clear
That All Protests Must End
Any More Violence
Or Deaths Will Be Held
Against My Challenger.

Look Dummies

Bloodied Or Worse,Shot
For Crimes
Against The State And Religion.

Since Dummies
You Can't Swallow
The Bitter Pill Of Defeat -
We Can Count
Some Votes
To Show
It's No Fix-up.

Scene Two: A huge mass of humanity has turned up at the city square.

They carry placards with images of a bearded profile.
They sing his name as he addresses them.

At another venue,the Supreme Leader is holding the stage at a mosque reciting holy verses and drumming up a frenzy among the rival crowd.
