T-A-L-E-N-T
The T in talent are pieces of tampered glass Subjugated under capitalism, And meticulously carving out worthlessness   on the talented's carcass. The A stands for all the crumbs of appreciation You collect along your way, feeding your right and just pride Humbled by a dilemmatic correlation   of efforts and proudness. The L is tricky, which maybe the love Or...

LOVE WOMEN
Love women for all they do. Do not kick them around like a used pair of shoes. Do not discard them when you are done with them, send them on a path of growth and goodness. Give them love and support and help them grow. Treat women with love and respect, and give them all your love and...

Sculpting human: Tinkering out-loud
The precursor Who you are and what you are is your personal dream. It is only when you speak it into the stream of the world that you can claim to be a member of A Living Society. It's your obligation to do so and the only...

Premium Member What Love Does
I need words to catch this fire, this burning that eats me alive like a wolf in my chest, this storm that turns my bones to water. But words give me only small, broken things: love, need, want each one is a tiny box trying to hold the sea. Still, I shout, because this love is a wild horse kicking to get out, the sun breaking open...

The Offspring Of The Floating Potheads
They inhale the poisonous substance, adduction had no power over resistance; their brain's responsiveness is too slow: look at them: their glance is so mellow! This is the offspring of the floating potheads, they renounce everything that means strides; they sit in a relaxed pose with mindless eyes: soldiers fight the wars, while they enjoy puffs. " Vacant glances and sunken...

Price of Freedom
An old man once said: Freedom isn’t free As a child, I grew up, never understanding those words. As an adult, I learned, the tree of freedom is watered with blood. I thought we had paid enough. But as trees wither without water, so does freedom without its tribute. As such I hoped, we could pay with sweat and duty. But once again-we choose red......

Premium Member So it's come to this
It's right out in the open for everyone to see ~ puppets bought and paid for dancers strung and played delusional parrots with microphones hostages read the demands of a madman while maintaining somewhat of a poker face It's never been so obvious : integrity has its price....

Two Caught in the Draft of a Door Ajar
We're mannequins peering from a storage bin. We slouch across from the "No-Food" paper sign. Its message sags to a pulp taped to the shoulders of a glass door. Shoppers, incoming, their shared orange squirts juice. Our mannequin-custodial grins bar us from the lips' sweet 'oh'. Crowdsourcing emboldens shame, our French kisses hung on tangy wind chimes breezes tongue....

Mirroring
The human race, the most successful dynasty on earth. Five-foot titans, jaws gaping, eyes too wide to see their own reflections. Apex predators. The first to fall were the animals shadows with breath, their bones paved into myths. Then the land, bled dry to raise glass towers, trees fell disgusted by the massacre. The human race, the most...

I RAN
I ran not out of fright, I ran not because I was chased. I ran not because I felt compelled, Nor from some urging to flee from something or someone. I ran not because others did, I ran not because I'm an idealist at heart. I ran not because...

THERE SHE GOES, MY BEAUTIFUL MUSE
[Verse 1] The lithium, the satellite The blood moon in a sleepless night The reels you posted, burning bright Still echo in my chest The AI wrote a lullaby The sea caught fire, the wires lie But somewhere deep behind my eyes She dances like the rest [Chorus] There she goes, my beautiful muse There she goes with nothing to lose There she goes, and I light...

Poisoned sheep
They claimed this world, Its not what it seems to be. So it started to unravel, bursting at the seams. So I lied in a wake. Unable to slip away. So I'm begging you now go back to sleep. counting your stars while they poison your sheep. Once the wave is set it's doomed to repeat. Thats where they linger hidden within your dreams. Just waiting for...

Love Of Money, Mistrust, And Betrayal Causes Heinous Crime In Society
The greatest snakes is not in the woods, Rather, it lives in the family Or in the circle of friends. In this life, whether in work, Family, feelings or friends Honesty is still the best policy. Those who are not tried in the fire, Are worth not for gold but a metal They become Judas, Ananias and Sapphira. The love of money always betray...

Sometimes The Strongest Leader Born In Time Of Difficulty
Sometimes, it is in the most difficult times That the strongest leaders are born. Not by chance. But crisis, Vision, and transformation. Look at the life Moses in Egypt, He was born out of circumstances. Out from the Jews united aggrieved prayers In Egypt Pharaoh's wanton slavery of the Jews. Look at the life in a beehive without a Queen. The ordinary workers...

Take of the Mask
Take Off The Mask Running from pain? Hiding from a ruthless society? What have we become? An outcast Always offended Take of the mask Be your own man Set yourself free Don’t be molded by hate Don’t follow the crowd Walk on your own road Just be you Don’t need many friends You can’t...
