Best Orientation Poems


If You're Child Is Hetrosexual Can a Gay Teacher Change Their Sexual Orientation

In a world diverse, where love finds its way,
Teachers guide hearts, nurturing day by day.
Their lessons of acceptance, broad and free,
Embrace all colors, in humanity's tapestry.

No label defines, love's chosen course,
For it blooms in hearts, with an unbridled force.
Children learn from caring souls, wise and true,
The essence of kindness, accepting each hue.

Yet understand this, without a doubt,
Teachers sow seeds, but the path's their route.
Sexuality's discovery, a personal quest,
Their love will bloom, as they find what's best.

So let teachers teach, with open hearts they share,
Knowing that love's journey is uniquely theirs.
For in acceptance and love, we all have a part,
To guide our children with love from the start.

Hue's Orientation...

Dark matter colored

              by the ray's of light spectrum,

                         image reflected....

Orientation

Crowd the room with alien thoughts, 
Maybe young, maybe not; 
Shapeless they may be
Or shaped a tad too differently.
Then knead them, mold them, form them
Into an image all your own, 
Until such time when many
Has finally become one.

Orientation

I'm not supposed to say anything, oh really?
the whole thing is ludicrous, serious and silly,
can you guess what I'm talking about, I'll tell you,
even then you may not know, perhaps an overview.

The animal kingdom does not know right from wrong,
they have their own codes and God does not belong,
*****sapiens is a higher intelligence who knows all,
we do what we want and bang our heads against a brick wall.

I'd like to go back fifty years, it was good and right,
we know we have to move on, today's not the same bite,
maybe condemnation is as inevitable as electric cars,
whatever you may have to say - the stigma jars.

Some people won't admit they made a blunder,
nevertheless, their mindset makes us wonder.

Quest Orientation

In the East, every quest 
orients to the West.

A Godly Orientation

Quite often, there’s a lot of speculation…
Regarding a person’s “orientation.”

As each day goes by… It appears to me.
Many are confused as to what they want to be.

Which direction one goes…  Is “anybody’s guess…”
No wonder this world’s  an “upside-down” mess!

The Bible says; “straight is the way.”  
And “narrow is the gate.”
One needs to make up his mind. 
 Before it’s too late!

If one is confused.  Let me point
 into this direction.
It’s the word of God that gives
 much needed correction

A “spiritual orientation” is 
what needs to take place!
There’s a God who loves us!  
And offers his grace!

If one is still unhappy with the way
 they’re created…
We’re wonderfully designed by God! 
 This shouldn’t be debated!

Allow God’s word to orientate 
your life today!
And listen to what your creator 
really has to say!

Where there is emptiness…  God’s love does
 much more abound…
Allow the Holy Spirit to turn 
your life around!

Jesus alone can change your 
whole way of living!
His life for yours…  
Is what HE is giving!

Can you make a friend— like a craft project?
I know, I hear this parental voice, “just be yourself.”

All of my classes this semester will be in one building, but I’m a control freak, I wanted to walk my schedule, go class to class, like I will on my first day. I have a locker too—this is so high school—but I wanted to find it, try the combination and plan what I’ll carry. I have questions too, like how’s the wi-fi, are there charging outlets, and where can I get coffee?

Orientation is Tuesday—but who can wait until Tuesday? Classes start Wednesday.  I’d never sleep this weekend with so many questions. I’m already having dreams where I’m lost, late and embarrassed.

So there I was, this morning, dressed for class with my green messenger bag—doing it—schedule in hand. I went into a small auditorium with cushioned, crimson, theater seating—where my first class will be—and there’s this other girl, dressed for class, schedule in hand.

We were like twins, except she’s tall and black and I’m not. Right off she commanded me, handing me her phone, no preamble, no “How do you do,” to “Take my picture.”
Of course, I obeyed, I’m not from outer space. I burst 50 quick frames, as she slightly varied her pose and she did likewise for me.

Her name is Chella and she graduated from Yale last week too, with a ‘Bachelor of Science in Global Affairs.’ I think I saw her on campus once or twice but our paths had never directly crossed.
“But IS 'Global Affairs' a science degree?” I asked skeptically.
“Probably not,” she answered, “but some of us can live with ambiguity.”
Her first direct, commanding phrase limns her personality perfectly.
Yeah, we hit it right off.

Sodomites

Sodomites

Ezekiel 16:49
Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters were arrogant, over fed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. 

That day you seraphs passed the gate
You heralded an uncreate
You had been told the ten to seek
For nine or less no mercy speak

Instead of going to the square
You yielded to four foreign there
Who chose a fertile valley then
From mountain streams to abject sin

But if you had you would have found
Five righteous ones there cruelly bound
Penetrated, stretched out straight
Their holy souls inviolate 

The victims of both young and old
Abused by those whose hearts were cold
To innocence and love once near
Then limited to five born *****

Who refused to enjoin the rest
In malice soaked with violence 
And disregard for those in need
Their consciences did no more heed

The cries of those whose lights went dim
So at high noon came heaven’s brim
Five bodies freed from spirits’ flight 
There left to burn with Sodomites

Premium Member Orientation of Surrender

In both manifestation
Or the dark void
We be in bliss elation
In stillness overjoyed

Interconnectedness 
To infinite expansion
Dissolved oneness 
Upon vaporisation

In vibrant emptiness
Divine is the mover
Bestowing aliveness
Enabling petals flower

Alignment of identity
With God consciousness 
Connection in continuity 
Single eye awareness

Distilling our attention
By surrender prayerful
Our optimal meditation 
To behold Gods miracle

We are here
We know not why
As yet

Since we are here
We may as well
Do our best

Duality offering
Two polarities 
Expansion and contraction 

Needing no prompt
We intuitively
Go with joyful elation

Looking in
Within
We feel heart singing

Looking out
Desires and fears grout
Our being

Looking around
We see geometric perfection
Of Gods creation

This forms the basis
Of our contemplation 
In stillness of meditation 

Ceasing grasping
We shift to connecting
Imbibing bliss sensation

No doing done
The happening fortuitous 
By resonation

Wonder beyond wonder
We are still
Yet there is a mover

In thought rested silence
Nestled in a bliss mist
Presence ascends higher

Mind body emptiness 
Magnetically connects us
To the that oneness

Having so vaporised
We no longer size
Dwelling in void of stillness

instrument of thought now rested
awareness abides in silence
all nodes within form uplifted
life flowing in playful parlance 

in tranquil calm feeling complete
following the breath principle
embrace and release, bliss replete
spacial cognition spherical 

the external domain recedes
taken to be a dream sequence 
empty within, no fear to weed
persona marked by innocence 

along the flow, from time to time
we still do sense oscillation 
aligned with the divine sublime
quickly restores bliss elation

The horizontal energy conduit
at the central  Anahata spacial
burrows polarity opposites radial
with patience slow but resolute

Likewise the head upper ovoid
sees multitude of nodes deepening
magnetic electricity heightening
with presence in bliss overjoyed

Whilst lower mind is at rest
we cannot help noticing divine geometry 
energy centres glistening in symmetry
each pulse manifesting a new crest
