Whoops, too Hot for YouTube! (Poem mashup for Didi3d)
In multiple languages
and another tongue
few have tasted
poet and artist
...that's our Didi3d
I'd do a quick flip through
But his art is just too hot....
I've got permission
So I'll crop a few scenes
maybe just a
modest little
poetry
mashup as well?
Befriend him and ask
where you can get his
books!

Strong females
We are vouchsafed this life for a reason,
But the purpose will never be clear,
The reason we’re blessed so
Is masked from the get go
Though glimpses will often appear.
Mares are put here for a purpose,
Their strength has a huge part to play,
But it’s not just their station
Of regeneration
That drives them to act in this way.
Consider in this Greta Thunberg,
Who’s coming to Bristol right now,
She speaks with such passion
And strength , not for fashion
But since it’s her furrow to plough.
Your mare...

Friday's Mashed Poetry #1
Dead dream (sure, that's sleep for ya!)
indicates the need for swimming lessons... (if you sleep swim!)
...many haunting memories (never sleep swim, okay? ...just sayin)
Not the fucking ice cream flavor of the month! (that flavor is like toe jam)
Indigenous oaks and beeches (ladies and gents)
no way out of here (duh, that's roots for ya!)
in the mirror (aka lake!)
Wave goodbye to Hammer House of Horror
We are all afraid of the unknown
that cannot be overcome right now
it's no small act that follows
Truth hurts...

Cerebral Dance
Gradual unfolding, intriguing, revealing.
Admiring, surprising, magnetic guiding.
Feeling, charging, inner reflecting.
Warming, yearning, knowing, connecting.

Beyond Breathing
Plunge into a place where all the world's lost secrets are stored.
A place you'll find endless peace.
Beyond the Surface where both mind and heart can be at sync.
Where a breath of air can take you somewhere else.
A dimension like no other.
A place to get lost with no worries.
Dive beyond your limit,
And i swear the view is spectacular.
A place you'll find endless peace.
Beyond the Surface where both mind and heart can be at sync.
Where a breath of air can take you somewhere else.
A dimension like no other.
A place to get lost with no worries.
Dive beyond your limit,
And i swear the view is spectacular.

What Hell Are You Waiting For !!??!!
Good morning everybody.
So it is the 28th day of February.
But we get an extra day this month right, February 29th.
If you’ve been following for the past two weeks, you went through the 10 days and the 10 things that we are specifically trying to focus on in order to get us on the path we are supposed to be on and a lot of people commented and said this is great and amazing teaching and this is so cool.....
But then yesterday, I didn't post anything and I need to be clear that I did that, 💯 percent on purpose!
So if you went on my page and you were lookin for...

TAKE MY HAND
I can tell you
what's real to me,
I can tell you
what it is I see,
it may be hard for
you to understand,
just believe in me
as you take my hand.
There's a power in
the bond we share,
there are so many
reasons why we care,
it may seem strange,
even quite unreal,
just have faith
in what you feel.
Listen to the sounds
the silence holds,
be aware as knowledge
starts to unfold,
just sit back, let
it come to you,
don't worry about
what you have to do.

Danny Came Home
Tell us Danny boy, did you see the sights?
Were the landscapes beautiful and green?
Were the seasons benign and kind to you?
Was the journey just as you had dreamed?
Oh the faces and places you must’ve seen,
I wonder about those open and spacious skies,
I remember when you set out to see the world,
Now we can see an untold story in your eyes.
You’ve come home after all these years,
Though sometimes things don't go as planned,
But you’ve come back to us Danny boy!
You left a youth and came back a man.

Truth Behind Glazed Eyes
Sitting together over coffee
Spontaneous secrets explode glazes
over eyes once transfixed,
popping over new revelations....
now, furtively traveling heart-guardians
helping someone double-hop idea waves
Perhaps something was said
revealing a rupture
in collective opinion
It was once said that a conversation
could be cheerfully averted
while reality instead
finds glazed eyes
Playing traitor

HOW I PRAY
HOW I PRAY
When l pray, l want to feel the thoughts
that l say are what the Lord would hear.
Words should come directly from my heart,
where God lives and knows all that l feel.
I request the pleas that give me rest
that transport my soul to obscure joy.
I perceive that l have gained something
which l fear to lose, so l conceal.
When l go to work, l feel so light.
I can fly like birds though my job's hard.
I conceive l have a wealth so vast
though my jacket's old and full of darns.
