“What remained was the individual person, the human being—and nothing else. Everything had fallen away from him during those years: money, power, fame; nothing was certain for him anymore: not life, not health, not happiness; all had been called into … Continue reading Fascism: A Reference Book

It Could Have Been

September 2, 2021September 3, 2021 ElRoyPoet

What hurts the most,is that I should’ve done something.I could’ve tried to change the world,instead of wasting away—a life of liberty— given freely to me. I was carefree then.Everything was so easy then.As the world spun around and around,I didn’t … Continue reading It Could Have Been

Down With The South

August 13, 2021October 23, 2023 ElRoyPoet

What difference does it make,if we protest, riot and loot?The governors didn’t care about us then,now they’ll care even less. What difference does it make,if we burn down their ivory towers?Weren’t they erected—just to remind us—how rich they’ve become,and how … Continue reading Down With The South

Fellow Travelers

August 6, 2021December 15, 2022 ElRoyPoet

If you are traveling in the same direction as the devil—you are in collusion with him—because you both have the same destination in mind. It does not matter, if you have an alternate point of view, in the end it … Continue reading Fellow Travelers

Standoffish

July 8, 2021July 9, 2021 ElRoyPoet

Jesus said:“Love your neighbor as yourself”. But how can He—expect me—to be friendly,with people I don’t even know. I have lots of blessings,and they don’t have that much.I’m afraid, they’ll try to take,what I’ve worked so hard to get. So … Continue reading Standoffish

Free At Last

July 7, 2021December 12, 2021 ElRoyPoet

When evangelicalsfinally see—that they’re being racist; That they’ve beenfooling themselves,and their congregation; Right then and there,they come to the realization,that they’re—in need of A Savior; Right then and there,the shacles of slavery,will fall off from their eyes. For Jesus didn’t … Continue reading Free At Last

To Err Is Human

April 29, 2021November 29, 2021 ElRoyPoet

Does my empathy for people,enable the depravedto injure others? Am I not worthy to judge them,or do I err in my heart,in believing I can? I will trust our Lord Jesus to decide,even if my sympathy allows themto deceive me. … Continue reading To Err Is Human

All of my life,You’ve heard me say:“I’ll get to it,One day in May.” And every year,The month goes by;Then June arrives,To make us sigh. Is it becauseMy progressive brainWon’t let it go—It’s wanting change? So here I sit,Dejected, too.Do I … Continue reading Agent Of Change
