Ray Lucero Poems

Men forget to live as human beings
'stead, choose live as human doings
Lust, fame, fortune is what they sing
Ignorance is all they've been proving
...

Man’s best friend?

Why?
...

A star of snow fell one cold night
Firstborn of that Christmas Season
Perfect, unique, all swathed in white
To be a part of winter was her reason
...

I am a raven
Freer than a breeze
Beholding to no one
Doing what I please
...

How is a monster created?

By forming a theocratic elitist government
By seeking power and control of global neighbors
...

Beloved…
I’ve expressed my love;
A thousand times
A thousand ways
...

'Handy Andy' (He's nicknamed) :
A guy who builds homes n' fixes stuff
'No jobs too big or small' it's proclaimed
This hands-on guy is 'No cream puff'
...

It may be time for Santa to retire
So that he n’ Mrs. Claus can rest
Warm tired bones by a warm fire
Reward for all the children blessed
...

Controlled from thousands of miles away
Drones wreak havoc on the unsuspecting
Soldiers with joy sticks, staring at display
Impassively rain death, without reflecting
...

She prowls the night, restless with desire
For truth, justice, renounced spirituality
Knows that only love can quench her fire
Only first, must defeat her mind’s duality
...
