Kareem Dortch Poem
The contradiction of sight to thought
In a vision that exist in the mysterious realms of time, the search continues
The questions raised in my next breath, the answers pursued in the thereafter.
A hand placed on the shoulder of the chosen
Response to responsibility, I embrace the day with a smile
The Bridge…
The challenges are pre-existent in the nature of nurtured souls trained to love yet taught to
hate;
If the thirst of knowledge does not drive the understanding the purpose is lost.
I’m drawn, intrigued by what is to come, no evil to end yet Heaven holds the promise
everlasting.
The lighted path secures my footsteps
And wisdom?
Leave it for others to judge and one day understand.
The wise will never pause to understand wisdom yet the norm pauses to question it,
arrogantly.
Walk on by…
Torment fuels the seven deadly.
The lack of, the wasteful abundance of…
How do I cry and show my strength to the vindictive? Should I wait for them?
And love?
“Those nails in your hands must have hurt terribly”.
A hand placed on the shoulder of the chosen.
Response to responsibility, I embrace each day with a smile.
The Connection…
A grain of sand given time and time again, so gracious as a knock at the door
My mind moves meticulously as I paint this picture.
The world continues to change yet the challenge is in the consistence of time,
Every second is born anew yet dies alike. What we do with that second defines who we are.
Today I will rise and rest like my father, and love again tomorrow.
A hand placed on the shoulder of the chosen
Response to responsibility, I embrace this day with a smile…

Kareem Dortch Poem
Deep? How deep??
Tormented and crucified, a strong faith built to be shaken but never stirred
Exalted in an instance as the nails penetrated his palms;
But yet the greatest reward given to his people is the sacrifice of the blood shed that washed
away our sins..
Through all the earthly pain in the flesh, he thought of us in Spirit...Wow!
What he knew I'd be...What he knew I'd become...
Was it a gamble or a choice?
Some would have you believe it was a gamble but I know different, I am a part of a choice and
blessed enough to know the difference.
"Life, the ultimate gift of choice, graciously given through the ultimate sacrifice."
Where will your focus be today????

Kareem Dortch Poem
Is this life?
I'm on the verge of it all
as I peak,
All questions forwarded to the nature of being;
in the latter?
Opinion
Down-played
Is this the path destined to answers?
I hold to the inevitability of change
I only questions things that remain the same
The constant
The Zone
To achieve is to reveal the unanswered
A predetermined judgment of society's answer
The norm
That which is theological, only exist in the zone
In truth
In harmony
Theories molded by unresolved visions
It’s Logic
It’s Life
It’s the Zone
This is the zone ...Unmeasured
Where circumstance is the victim
Unlimited boundaries drawn in respect to what we
Bring to the zone
The fear is what we take from it
Balance maintained on the waves of emotion
A consistency that can only be achieved
In between...

Kareem Dortch Poem
Falling on a whispered cry that only I can hear
Leaking from a shattered dream
Through a crevice in a broken heart
Melting the promises built from ice
I travel on a tear...
