               !Stop Acting And Face The  Nation!





     THIS POEM IS INSPIRED BY  YOUR DUAL OF JULY 94 and May 2000


Your frailled mind is mind!
Gonna tell you right, just show your face in broad day light!
I ma telling you how i feel!


I ma gonna hurt your mind!
Dont shoot to kill the young!
Dont dress to intimidate the gunless, your promised assingment!
Lay it all on to thyself-- ok! Thy perceiption, thy frialled mind.!


Sorry aint enough for me! Call it off effective noon tommorrow-Re:Nixon!
I'm giving you on a count of three!
I know you know what i mean!

And to me thats really the truth!But Bro you aint seen nothing yet!
Let my love ones go free!Or worst still just wait till iam through!
A man can tell thousand lies!
I heard you are doing wrong!


The whole world has to answer now, but dont try to preach on to me!
You are not a man!
You are throwing stones to hide your hand!
You are wearing dentures to hide your fangs!

WE can change the world Effective noon Tommorrow!
This could be a better place if u  had known how to love!
Opened your ears after your biggest meal at the UN!
Warning signs upon your being!


No more children no cry!
No more tears shed to wet the coffin!
No more  blood to wet the floor!
No no more!   NO NO No   NoMORE!


You can make this world a better place effective noon tommorrow!
If you dont like what iam saying why dont you slap your own face!
Blame it on your own, your own  inablity to feel long distant!
Do you remember the Grand Hytt Hotel!
Dont act like you never met me before!


What did you promise me!
Maximum security for all!
Now you dont have what it takes  to pick up phone?!
This blood shed could have been avoided had you listened at the Grand
Hytt!!!!Dont act like you never met me before!

I met you when we were strong and innocent!
You know iam mad!
And the whole world has to answer right now!
Must it end this way---------------------->!

Give up the hold on her neck, turn the sword against your own pride!

And Let the  nation go free!

Do have what it takes to ignore your guards!

And  put national  interest first!

Are you  going to hand over the babies alive! Saved and sound!


(giveuptheholdonherneckturntheswordagainstyourownprideandletthenationgo)free

        Yours sincerely
