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 will

When 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.



The hollowness of your lives

Reflected the waste of what was taught

While you thought it prosperity

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
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
Still there is love
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 there is love
In my life she´s ever there
