Premium Member Critical Liaisons
A poets dream, she'll seduce with her eyes,
pens will desire to praise her charming guise,
but be cautious, she'll treat you like her book,
explore each chapter with her detailed look.
Drain your ink, smoking pages in to fire,
drink your spirit like blood thirsty vampire.

But now it seems...

God made human beings into man and woman
And adorned them - gems into a gorgeous garden;
Never coloring them into white, black, or brown
His image, he poured into them, in-mold golden...

Humans created all casts, colors, creeds, and sects,
Filled the earth with injurious impurities;
Each looking another as...

Critical Thinking
(15/09/2011)

Being criticized never tasty
But in critics, we need to be greedy
Improving personality to add ability
Since opportunity nowadays meeting scarcity...

Critical Slam
Capital of Culture 
Come gather the vultures 
The Ultras 
Pro choice 
Who reverberate to the sound of critical voice
They seed that which is worthy to read
Robotic mite's of the proverbial art
They play no part in writing 
Reciting guild's of old
They make or break
Jack or Jill
And...

Critical Thinking
To whom are we responding?
All bad news for desponding,
Someone's editing all this stuff,
Media and worldwide web, that's tough,
Let's examine the motivation,
Feeding us their manipulation,
Read and listen in bewilderment,
Assess the agenda in amazement,
You want us to believe that stuff?
THEIR motivation and manipulation, that's tough....

Premium Member Critical Mass
It takes a critical mass
to keep a culture alive,
I once heard someone say.
Ishi was the last of his tribe
and whole civilizations
have come and gone.
The tipping point comes
when you lose your way
or someone takes it away 
from you.

George Washington,
for all his faults,
understood what torture was.
Tecumsah killed...

Premium Member Critical Race Theory
C R T- new theory now embraced;
demands set forth by those defined as woke-
dividing races in a way disgraced.
Most people feel this theory is a joke!

This avenue will set us back for sure;
erase the gains we've made for racial peace-
negating Martin Luther King's allure
in claiming...

I know so little of this theory, so
I go to Wikipedia. No help!
I'm reading how it stems from Marxism, and 
the struggle of the classes throughout time.
So next I search for tenents of this theory.
In doing so, I'm finding things like this:
how White Supremacy will...

Critical Thoughts
The more they plan and promise
The more they fail
The poor are distant abyss
Dream is a nail
Drive it deep, and deeper yet
Nail them to sleep
Less waking they will forget
Their word to keep

The horse shoe flies now away
The serpent hissed
Victory is a far day
Venom for bliss
Something to...

We Are Living In a Critical Time
we are living in a critical time
a time of no peace
a time of wars
a time of tribal wars 
a time of fears
a time of worries
a time of isolation
a time of hate
a time of no unity
a time of ignorance
what a time 
a critical time

we are living...

Premium Member My Critical Circumstance
Looking at the world 
In a kaleidoscope of color
Vivid and fleeting
Every shade filled with hope of bliss.

Laden with heartache
After ages of pain and grief,
Uncertainty of a 'forever'
Glancing eerily at me, 
Heading for a breakdown that I would never succumb to.

Leaving behind yesterday and its bitterness,...

We’re teaching racism
by exposing our young minds,
to classroom untruths.

Premium Member Vast Variety of Race
Civilizations used white to mitigate the lack of black.
Black is not just skin color but also a human spirit. 
Imagine indigenous people having red skin plaque!!
While things seem disastrous, it is just painted on it.

Civility will be total only If all races are treated fairly.
Thus,...

Premium Member Wrongthink-Rightthink
Wrongthink is any think
You might do on your own,
You know, in the vastness
Of your inner space
As cloud trains drift by
Morphing into shapes
As fanciful as you allow.

Rightthink in contrast
Is mind control from without
With nothing fanciful or free allowed,
Just dogma and doctrine
And all the usual stuff
That makes...
