How to erase history!

Seasons of my life

Why Do We Stand?

I'll Always Be There!

I Feel Just Like a Baby!



That's Life!

That's Life!

War is Hell

Oh! Where did it all go?

Untitled

Disrespect?

'OH! My,my,my!"

Warriors

Disrespect!

Beware!

Untitled

Forgive and Forget?

So Why Should I?

Fifty Years Later

All in a DAY

A Warrior's Soul

"Good Life"

"If"

My Only Son

GONE!

"American Pie"

War is Hell!

Daream Catcher

Time is a Thief!

Ode to T/Sgt. Glenn Wilson

Never To Late!

That Last Horrific Call

I have seen the daytime star rise and set over
twenty six thousand times.
I have traveled the world afar and witnessed
the ugliness and dispair as well as the beauty
of its rhymes.

I have felt the winds of war and seen the
faces of evil, whose crimes have wrought
death, destruction and horrific upheaval.  

I have traveled in the time machine for seventy
years, and witnessed the light and darkness
of the inner soul of humanity with all its
hopes and fears.

I wonder how much longer humanity can endure
the stress and strain of its own creations.
The pain, intolerance, abuse, neglect and
untold aberrations.  

Only time can tell if humanity is to survive or
fall, and it’s up to humanity to make that last
horrific call.
