Blessed are the peacemakers, and one sure way of peacemaking
is to let the fire of contention alone. Neither fan it, nor stir it, nor add fuel to it, but
let it go out by itself. Begin your ministry with one blind eye and one deaf ear.—
Charles Spurgeon
if you can swallow
your own dark words
before you shoot them
at provocateurs and fools
and if you can cool the flames
that others sling at you
before they swell and cripple the light
that heals your soul
perhaps the green hills shall be...

Patience
Patience running thin,
This beast within,
May just win.
A melting clock, refined
Into finer metal to find
In boxes, velvet lined,
Rich and fit for a king,
Unbeknownst, a corruption ring,
Of silver, and thorns, piercing,
Tainting pure fingers,
Leaving honest thoughts, that lingers,
Spilling truths, that poke like daggers.
My dreams reach the sky,
My mind flying high,
Thoughts that will never die.
My mind is at a low dark,
A walk through a dead park,
Anger, singing like a lark.
My dreams...
This beast within,
May just win.
A melting clock, refined
Into finer metal to find
In boxes, velvet lined,
Rich and fit for a king,
Unbeknownst, a corruption ring,
Of silver, and thorns, piercing,
Tainting pure fingers,
Leaving honest thoughts, that lingers,
Spilling truths, that poke like daggers.
My dreams reach the sky,
My mind flying high,
Thoughts that will never die.
My mind is at a low dark,
A walk through a dead park,
Anger, singing like a lark.
My dreams...

Party
Take the 9:59 train
Run four blocks in the rain
She's stunning, all dressed up for the party
Excitement’s in our eyes
It was worth it to make haste
I decide, as my eyes roam her face
Long awaited party
Edgy, eager eyes
I don't know this crowd
Try to talk, but it's just loud
Lonely at a packed party
Unfamiliar eyes
This is a game and I don't know how to play
Is it all in my head? What the fuck do I say?
Judgemental party
So many eyes
Someone hands me some substances
Not sure where...

THEN WHY DON'T YOU DO IT
THEN WHY DO IT...It's situations in life that will test us in ways we can never imagine, for nothing is written in stone only when it's time, to be place within the ground in this cycle known as life. THEN WHY DO IT... For sometimes we find ourselves in some situations, beyond our control as life sometimes throws us a curve ball or few, down the plate to throw you off your game. THEN WHY DO IT...For we can get involve in some relationships that starts off beautiful, as a magical song we can be involve with our friends and family but somewhere along the way that love, slowly drifts away from...

[ CC ] The Third Stanza
Seeking interpretations of the poem
"The Last Bargain" by Rabindranath Tagore,
Mister Sykes navigated the classroom
as if Alladdin floating on his magic carpet.
Susie Speckledbottom zealously raised a hand.
It's about how power always fails to deliver
on it's promise of alleviating your hardships,
symbolized by the King in the first stanza
flaking on hiring a man desperate for work.
Proud of her answer, she beamed, riding
upon a ninth cloud of her own self worth.
The teacher nodded,...

THE CHAINS OF IMPRISONMENT
Life is filled with unspeakable complications penetrating through the systematic, thoughts of your subconsciousness reaching so deeply within the depth of your heart and soul. For innocence as it may seem it holds you capture in its assumption that everything is going to be alright, yet is it really alright as you hide within the prison cell you've built in the abyss of your mind. For why is it that when we grow apart we slowly begin to lost ourselves, to the very existences of mere separation of the heart and soul. As we start living in a fantasy world that we created in our own mind that...

LOVE SOMEONE LIKE ME
Here I am as I am a woman of many things that can be seen, through the depth of your own subconsciousness only if you would open up your eyes, and not see me as I am nothing more than a woman in your eyes. For I am a strong woman of intelligence and knowledge and experience, that came from wisdom of trials and tribulations as a woman who understands, her self value and self worth as in the deepness of my mind and heart. Who has endured many trials and tribulations of life some good some bad. For I have known love from the depth of the heart and soul, as I have felt the hurt and pain along...

The Birth of an Outlaw
Too old to start making waves
But seen too much to keep going along to just get along
This is the Birth of an Outlaw
Used to be a Rightie
Now I'm SouthPaw
And if you've seen the Shit that I saw
Then you too
Might be an Outlaw
You see,
They shot that little boy dead
(Tamir Rice)
No more Dr. Seuss
Or tucked in bed
Body in the streets
His blood is Red
"My Baby!!" is what his mama said
They killed that girl (Atatiana Jefferson) in her house ...
