Israel Declines Security Help for Carter
The Fox is loose in the Barnyard and Peace comes to visit. Armed with The Nobel and the Audacity of Truth, it strides up to the Heavily Armed gate.


Sadr Demands Forces be Reinstated
Someone demands something in occupied Iraq, knows the price of thunder, a rocket is fired, a bomb explodes, America plunders, a child walks home from school.

Hamas Cleric Predicts 'Rome Will Be Conquered by Islam'
If you listen closely you’ll hear. Perch your ears upon the air. Can you hear it now? It is not a US fighter jet rescue or even the droning lips of angels. It is the maddened blow-back of madness marching on the wind.

White House: Bush Concerned About Food Shortages
The lack of sustenance boils and splatters. Two point one billion in 2007 was given this. Imagine what one day, one measly day out of Iraq could nourish?

Nobel Laureate Refuses Olympic Torch
When a dog is beaten by its master and hobbled from neglect it cowers away from the outstretched hand, yet desires its affection. Knowing it will not eat without the master’s approval it will suddenly bare its teeth.

Texas Compound Was Considered A 'Holy Land'
Holy Christ! The writhing and gnashing truth spills forth! Within the walls it was indeed deemed divine, the sacrosanct howl of children held up and held down as women. Wholly hell!

ROOT OF

"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." __1 Timothy 6:10 It is MONEY, not the LOVE of it that is the issue, the true problem. Love, in and of itself, is never a problem, WANT and NEED, or better yet- the WANT and the conundrum of its very REQUIREMENT for our survival IS the problem, it's creation and our blind use of it is logically the ROOT. In other words, let's leave LOVE out of it altogether and deal with the facts instead. If money were not made by us as a requirement for our survival, we'd find ourselves in a much better position to argue of its need and our want of it. MRP Peace and Love © 2015 Mark Richard Prime

sdrawkcaB nruT (Turn Backwards)

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman
