HIGHER FIRE

He was not drafted to warships

but summoned to worship..

not to soldiers' gassing

by 'friendly fire'

or corporate hire and fire



but called to the

Higher Fire



For His God whispered to him:

I have said you cannot have

2 masters. Pledge

allegiance only to My Voice..

I have not asterisked with

exceptions My command

not to kill.

I told Peter

when he warred to put down his

courageous

sword

and the executing

mob when they struck

her bones

to put down

their stones.

I have told you to transmute

anger into love.. that

is the meaning of "Turn

the other cheek".

You are the Ocean of Spirit

which all rivers hallows..

no matter how polluted

.. no matter how shallow.





MICHAEL DUKAKIS



He ends the blood

of unjust wars.

Red is his peaceward

passion.

He works to end

all suffering.

Blue is his deep

compassion.

He shows silent

serentiy.

White is his

shadeless dispassion.





Thank you to Michael Dukakis, governor of Massachusetts, framed by Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes of Fox who developed the racist Willie Horton ad campaigns. Dukakis works tirelessly to develop train mass transit and takes mass transit to work. May he also work to end Massachusetts' role as the chief vivisector among the states.







CROSSFIRE



Beneath the morning star jewel

.. arrive arrayed in gold

the beams of dawn..

and though their swordshafts

appear each other to pierce

.. with conflicting dreams

.. because they are made

of light..

they merge



(may CNN promote peace

or may CNN disappear)



KENNEDY AND KERRY



While with DA's Perry parries

and her beloved, Mary marries

and his past, Barry buries

and with friends, Terry tarries

and traveling bugs on leaves,

invisible fairies ferry

Massachusetts, Kennedy and

Kerry carry.



THE WAR PARTY



They are the center right

and farright

wing of the same bird

of prey, which

is attempting to drive

from the skies the

doves of peace.

However it will not be

able to.. because

sadly imbalanced

by the weight of money

on its wings.. it

flops around it circles.



It is time for God

to end the wars.
