Haiku Variations. That monsters do exist.
Where truth and fairness wrecked
Honest men, even women and children tyrannised,
Famished, raped, repressed by tyrants
As malevolence equals male violence
Where few own all and all little
A global ´elite´ wholly corrupt
Where forest and wildlife demolished
Fulfilling a greed and lust for annihilation
Mankind unique in hideous behaviour
Still building towers of Babylon
In deserts, in capitals, on human lives
Hatred for God´s creation
Alas lacking money, being needy
Does not equal kindness or being fair
Paupers can be evil too
When you hate your brother
If you suppress or violate your sister
You lack humanity and godliness
Without true piety or humanitarian ethics
Earth aches of your want to compare
As you hunger for dominion
While you exploit and feast
On pitiful superiority, innocent suffer and perish
Proof that monsters do exist

Haiku Variations. The Master of December.
Was he born in December
Probably not, but does that really matter
What matters is, he lives
He will go on living
As long as one of us lives
And remembers his eternal love
Just repent and freely atone
Anytime when you are ready he forgives
Safed from sin and worse

Haiku Variations. For the remaining.
I will light my light
As a rainbow is full of colours
To guide my few children
As one of you cried
Listening to ´praying for time´ and understood
My grieve and choosing distance
Look but do not comprehend
How can one see without a heart
Squandered for riches and rank
But for those few caring
Still, believing a better world must be
Return I will, some morrow

Haiku Variations. And Yet Fewer Rainbows.
I see too little rainbows
Am I going blind or losing hope
For Him to come back
He promised us the earth
And we turned it into this world
Cold and ugly, without compassion
Was it more than pain
When Yeshua cried ´have you forgotten me´
Was he foretelling our future
Will He ignore his children
Since we chose to abandon our Father
Chasing gold instead of rainbows

This Giant Han That Chose The Wrong.
True, Han
was insulted and belittled for centuries
All were underestimating this ancient giant
Soon
strong and able enough to march
Yet, if Han represses its own and others
When this giant thinks it may destroy
Wildlife and freedom at willWhen abandoned, the five coloured flag
Died with the burial of Sun Yat-Sen
Also Mínzú, Mínquán, Mínshēng
And never forget, Tiananmen square
That glorious star Wang Weiling
People nicknamed Tank Man
Thus, modern Han has judged itself
As in the eyes of its wise of old
As in the eyes of the Creator
Where in the days of old, Giants
Walked this earth so will now
Earth eradicate its last

Haiku Variations. This Earth, III.

Haiku Variations. And still there is love.
As long as she´s alive
Still there is love
In my life she´s ever there
When I´m wrinkled ´n crippled
None want to see or care
Like society treats each other
As long as she´s alive
As long as she´s alive
Still there is love
In my life she´s ever there
As God appears sleeping, not present
To protect earth´s children
Little men violate the land and me
As long as she´s alive
In my life she´s ever there
As God appears sleeping, not present
To protect earth´s children
Little men violate the land and me
As long as she´s alive
Still there is love
In my life she´s ever there
No matter how cold this world
In my life she´s ever there
No matter how cold this world
As blue as I can feel
Still she keeps me from harm
As long as she´s alive
Still she keeps me from harm
As long as she´s alive
Still there is love
In my life she´s ever there
In my life she´s ever there
