The Fall of Empires and the Promise of Eden
- The Fall of Empires and the Promise of Eden -
I was told not too very long ago, that I am a holy person. Over the years... many people, have told me that my words are sacred, profound, and meaningful to them, and that through those words their lives could be changed. I have spent much time lately in prayer, and I have experienced many visions and a great many dreams in which God spoke unto me, and I shall use the word God to refer to such a truly transcendent and glorious principle. Elsewhere, I have referred to this as Allah, and one name is just as good as any other for...

True self-awareness and genuine self-respect are unquestionably distinctly beneficial!
By Stanley Collymore
No one genuinely needs heroes
simply for the sake of having
them and instead what's
required are people that inspire one's
self, to literally make the most of that
individual's very own capabilities. So
in essence, specifically how is some
delusional birth-right individual, with
very unwarrantedly amassed wealth
and privilege and rather disdainfully
looks down on you even if basically
quite actually off chance they really
truly got to know of your existence!
Jimmy Savile and Rolf...

Manifest Destiny (Collab with Fia Naturie)
So long I have waited for your return
I have much to teach you, are you willing to learn?
I can show you how to remove the decay
Assemble the pieces that are in disarray
Wait... wait.... wait, just a bit
Need a minute to come to terms with this shit
Not easy to give up what used to be home
This darkness inside is all that I have known
Its all you have known, but theres so much more
Take hold of my hand and Ill pull you ashore
I know that you're cautious and lacking in trust
I will walk alongside you while you adjust...

The Child In Us
I love the crosswords puzzle, i hate the crossroads hustle, and the vain downtown bustle, crowded, growling with screams and beastly muscles..
.,
i opt for a little hike, across country thru' the fields, 'n past an old mansion, built on a rocky hill, owned by a stout old man, whose biceps would pull and drive a donkey cart with iron wheels, down to the weekly market, and up again uphill on his own full of goods, without a panting sighed, or a word of complain whispered..
i opt for a walk far from noisy, bewildering streets, into the fields of wheat,...

We're Happy and In Love
Tomorrow is a special day for my girlfriend & I. We're celebrating our one year anniversary without him. You may ask who is him, well him was my girlfriends ex-boyfriend who couldn't accept the fact that her & I were madly in love.
What led up to June 18th being our one year anniversary is a tragedy for him, not us. At one point after New Years, she decided to break it off with him. There were issues that were typical for a boyfriend & girlfriend. Jealousy, poor communication and affairs. He had other girl friends and would deny he cheated on her numerous times. A few...

Unsung Heroes Part I: Emilio (maternal grandfather)
Although I stand on the shoulders of giants,
I fail to see much farther than the bridge of my nose.
The fault in mine. The shame is mine.
For I am unworthy of you, my beloved dead.
Emilio (Maternal Grandfather)
Your crime was literacy,
And the possession of a social conscience,
That made you yearn to see your beloved Spain remain free,
And prevented you from suffering fascists lightly.
You did not bear arms,
For you abhorred all violence,
You did not incite rebellion, though you
Rebelled against the foreign and domestic...

Rocky Hills and Flowing Wadies
Rocky Hills and Flowing Wadies
The rocky plains expand southward
To the high hills where the mountains rise
The shortest path i take, is from the east..
Along the dogs' river, then heading south
I find the thick forest with its pine perfume
As i walk along, i see dim shapes moving
Between the trees skipping, like apes screaming
the woods have their own ghosts, here, they abide
And from where the shepherds come home
I find the tracks winding upward to the airy hills
whereon i perch, and i...

Castle Walls
Lily was a little girl.
She lived in her castle walls.
When she was bored,she walked the castle halls.
All doors locked shut.
So she doesn't get hurt out there.
Where inside the castle walls,life was always fair.
But one day,she didn't listen to the warnings woe.
She ran into the woods,mountain low.
A comforting voice came into the rescue.
A magical purr.
Offering her happiness,gold.
Who wants to make her happy,and she wouldn't feel woe.
She knew she was hypnotised,by his love and affection. ...

Earthly Messiahs are usually sacrificed; and it's no different alas, with Jeremy Corbyn!
By Stanley Collymore
With no apologies whatsoever
to anyone I'll thoroughly, as
I've always done, literally
keep on admiring, and unquestionably
respecting this actually outstandingly
fellow human being - Jeremy Corbyn.
As I'm crucially, obviously convinced
do the huge majority of constituents
and quite undoubtedly too, evidently
the really decent people of Islington.
For they just like me, and everybody
who essentially bothers, to sensibly
examine the very distinctly political
as well as the...

Landscape '' Paysage ''
Landscape '' Paysage ''
Noon time, the star in the sky burning at zenith
The deep azure, was radiant with fiery heat
Laid on the skyline, its dome calm and serene
The yonder river, slowly ran on the grey scene
From hillsides to dales and back from dales to hillsides
Green fields or pale extend their furrows long and wide
And on the shady slopes of the plains that lay near
The forest cast its oaks and beeches in sight clear
O Spring ! alas, 'tis not of your joyful hues
It is Summer's...

Mental liberation is clearly a construct that's alien to every feudal, serf Briton!
By Stanley Collymore
Why should a highly educated
and a discernibly mentally
clearly unquestionably
and a distinctively, thoroughly liberated
African American like Meghan actually
return to a place like Britain that really
is so staunchly inundated with feudal
mindset serfs, subjects, and multiple
plebeians that has been, and literally
still continues to be hateful towards
her, crucially because she's actually
quite essentially different! Meghan,
essentially has nothing to prove by
being there! And...

Anti-Slide Device
Has anyone ever wondered what those large knobs are on the side of escalators?
Well I'm going to tell you.
The knobs sole purpose in life is to keep miscreants from sliding down the flat space between the escalators
Or at least to guarantee that if an offender does slide down in between the escalators, they'll have a bumpy not so enjoyable ride
This leads me to my story...
When I was 14, a group of friends and I went to one particular mall on Long Island
This was 1991
Most of the state of the art, high tech malls at the time had these...
