What is Innate
Target matters not
hatred, immoral
easily misguided
resulting tragic quarrel
Intolerance, conditioned
hostility taught
ignorance
without awareness sought
To teach or condone malice
profoundly depraved
responsibility exists
obligation not to be waived
We cannot afford to remain
indolent in silence
nor should our response
perpetuate the violence
Protect the vulnerable
from radical attraction
with no willing participants
hatred halts without action ...

Capacity Audacity
Furious clouds -
Bubbling from above,
Injurious seas -
Bubbling from below
All the hate – All the love
& everything
in
Between
Both -
Seen
&
Unseen
Volcanic grey to verdant green.
&
Everything under the sun.
&
Depths where seeds are sown.
There is nothing
You
have not
Experienced
or
Known.

weird
despite the many waves
the ocean is one
despite the many colors
the rainbow is one
but here.. one world
and one God
yet there are
many different human beings
and many many religions.

Phrases & Concepts
The control of allowing the mind to wander captures the essence of creativity.
It takes more strength and might to create than to destroy.
Zero only exists because of the possibility of one. There has to be something in order to conceive nothing.
Perfection was always possible, is always possible, and will always be possible, whether it was, is, or will be achieved, or not, as there is room to improve, moving forward within perpetual change. Such is striving for repentant faith in self.

A crucial winding road
.. ... ...
A crucial winding road
Creates a bridge over the abysm
Then the wide open highway...
Which is always sitting empty
Destiny is feeding its need for speed...
So it is left for fate to fill in and interpret
This relationship pans out...
And visual poetry is fastened with concrete poetry
All lanes of travel open
Unseen twists and turns become visible
They are unable to trap thoughts
So hopes and goals are rendered all clear

Listened To My Voices
Never alone, I’ve got too many voices in my head!” ~ Thank you to the soul who sent me this, mine have haunted me long enough.
There’s been many souls thru time that have crossed my life path, can’t help worrying if they knew just how much my life changed, cause they took time for me and got to know me in some way. What a blessing I was given.
Some~ are no longer living now, I look up to Heaven and smile when I think of them, can feel their invisible touches, can only hope before they left their last footprints on earth that my luv for them I showed. Will forever luv...

THROUGH YOUR OWN EYES
To understand wholeheartedly where you have been is to understand, where you have gone through the trails and tribulations of what is called life. For each decision comes with a price that we must learn and pay, yet it is those decisions that will totally make or break you leaving us feeling sometimes alone and afraid. For in that moment of self consciousness we begin to ask thyself, the questions that has been filling up our feelings and emotions and thoughts with even deeper emotions and feelings and uncontrollable thoughts. For that is when we slowly start to explore the true meaning of...

YMCA Holy Man
YMCA Holy Man
His TV blares resurrection blues
With phantoms of the YMCA opera
Words born of my naïveté:
“The suburbs are for the middle class.”
His removal of my anesthesia:
“Everything is for them.
You are doing some thinking on this old world.”
In his face the ghost of Frederick Douglas
An exorcist of cloudy propaganda
“Where would you want to be other than here?”
“In the mountains.”
On a morning like the last judgment
“Don’t you feel pleasure from anything?
Surely your bare feet on the...

Obscured In The Slumber
That hour strikes
alone in your silence,
discomfort within
tossing to find
the resting position
that will allow
a day to evaporate
requiring
the unconcious peace
that can open the door
to the visitors
of past, present, future
hoping to remember
what may have been imparted
or even discarded
- some living, some dead
and some never known
but the presence felt
and the emotion intense
piecing together
words said
before the intrusion
of the mounting sun.

Measure of a man
It's not how much you can lift with your hand.
It's not how many women you can claim you knew.
Though it is in a way measured by strength.
You will be judged by what you do.
It's how many time you pick your kids up and dust them off.
Then convince them not to give up hope and continue to try.
How much you still love them with all that's in you.
Even when they have done things to make you cry.
How you wake up every morning holding the same woman.
Not just hold her but remember you love her more then anything else.
You can see her...
