Premium Member Great Divide
A great divide is here
Not, the Grand Canyon 
Or our weather from East to West
Or even North to South
But, it is the divide amongst our people
It has grown wide enough in areas,
Too distant to reach in areas at times
With reasoning falling, between sides to the...

A Deeper Divide
Dreams herein, our progeny, still birth sometimes inside,
blind and rigor twisted, formless foetuses upon
the terrace steps where innocence bled and occasionally died
screeching for salvation when every shred of hope was gone.
Yet also soared in glorious flight, monstrous span
of righteous flapping wings in the stadium sky,
drummed...

Premium Member God and Man - the Great Divide
Compare the evidence of a real divide
so far apart are truly God and man
the comparisons are really traumatic
consider all that covers this great span

God is far greater than created man
always eternal knows everything
fully perfect with no hint of sin
fully spiritual with great blessings to bring

God...

Divide
I feel the pull of days gone past—
The strain of heart that comes with time:
The cold and empty space that’s left
By those once loved, now far behind

I feel the still of what is now—
A silent ache that longs to sound,
And cast bright colors once again
Upon...

My Divide
Sitting here inside myself I suffer from the air around me as it steals my breath, Wonder if anyone notices this pain tormenting me so...I'm vulnerable around him and he can't even see it, this thing deep within, It burns so bad I can't stop...

Class Divide
Poor  men  with  wealthy  lives  are  low  dead
Dead  and  poor  low  mens  lives  were  wealthy 
Wealthy  dead  with  lives  poor  were  low  men

Divide and Conquer
Started from King Macedon
Dividing and conquering people 
Come Julius Caesar and Napoleon Bonaparte
The tactic survived today
They created of nations from the states.

Sulu archipelago has been divided
Nationhood superseded statehood 
The statehood gone forever
The imagined nation comes to emerge
Made the archipelago comes to worst.

They claim to own...

The Great Divide
Our ancestors roamed ‘cross the seas
way long before my time
and conquered lands so strange to us,
but ever so divine.

But since they crossed that salty pond
they’ve changed you must agree,
no man from here… the ‘motherland’
would waste our precious tea.

So now a ‘Great Divide’ appears
on both sides...

On the Inside of the Racial Divide
Carbon, deep, deep black in one form
Refracting light in another 
Symbols of energy and wealth
Yet, still the same carbon on the inside
Three handed creature
Grasping hydrogen atoms, oxygen and themselves
Forming the hydrocarbon chains of food stuffs
Filling our bodies with the stuff of energy 
Powering the mighty...

Death Cannot Divide Us
It's as simple as this.
I love you.
Nothing will Change that.
Nothing will break that
Nothing will hatter that.
It's the truth.
Always will be.
I hope you dream of me,
as much as I dream of you
I will always be there for you
That is my word

Transcending the Cultural Divide
Transcending The Cultural Divide

Watching the foreign film and blood fly
Nothing particular on my mind
I do not know a word they speak
Their death is all I need
War machines kill everything
I am supplied forever in that moment
With all the information that I need
Death transcends all nations
I am...

Generational Divide
Tinted stars on flatter screens 
suave images do hype
Black & White visages from 
nostalgic era still archetype
Touched-up photos the ideal 
caricature to swipe
Still Life portraits from 
Renaissance remain heartfelt 
prototype
Gratuitous mavericks, in 
manicured uniforms with 
stenciled bats, freely gripe
Talented shills in baggy pants 
with suborned fealty...

Premium Member Technological Dependency
Now social networks
Before tea-room social chat –
IT changes us

Single views are flawed
Life is grey not black and white-
Harmony spawns hope

Computer jargon
Academic rhetoric – 
Actions not words count

Premium Member The Digital Tide
"I think there is a world market for maybe five computers."
Quote by Thomas Watson, IBM chairman, 1943


Through the QWERTY maze fingers travel afar
discover where virtual worlds are,
but a digital divide
locations denied.
Modern day
tide,
such dismay
for those left aside.
This is happening worldwide
but we must neither exclude nor bar.
