“And for what, except for you,
do I feel love”
Wallace Stevens 


Concealed in full view
there are sanctuaries where you
can go when the shrill noise
of politicians, preachers and prophets 
gets too loud -  the quiet 
of a morning wearing a glossy melt 
of frost honeyed in...

False Prophets
FALSE PROPHETS

They have the word of God as their encyclopedia
They refer and come out to deceive the myopia
They are quick to inform like Wikipedia
Their actions premeditated like the media

About people they always see vision
But their flaws they fail to acknowledge
They come into the field with...

Pamphlets of Prophets
Pamphlets of Prophets

And in the barren face of sanity
I scavenged 
For hope

Hope between the bleeding
Stain

Full forces littered the bodies
Pamphlets of prophets
In useless streets

Streets paved with dead
Dreams

Burning crosses
Burning flags
The caricatures of hate

Hate in the Holy walls and domes of
Jerusalem

And in the coloured face of madness
I found...

Premium Member Prophets and Messiahs
The difference between 
bad-old-boy 
competitively evolving 
egg white privilege

And good-girl 
cooperatively revolutionary 
just-us-yolks

Foreshadows a symbiotic contrast
between prophetic performance
and messianic practice,
said Professor Glory
in her Gospel of Permaculture class,
one Friday morning
while sitting on her crass 
desk of Primal Relationship Theory.

What could this dipolarity possibly mean?
between patriarchal prophets...

Premium Member An Ode To Seven Prophets
Yo,
When I was younger, stronger, faster, phatter!
I saw Bayard Rustin, ascending and descending on bell hooks’ reveries,
And I screamed, from artistic insights,
Of plights and rights, citing Mumia Abu the Baptist,
“MOVING” SOULS to awakening, writing like Melchidezek in a Birmingham Jail,
Christ in Communist imagery,
Mohammed quoting Amos...

Elijah and the Prophets Or Baal
Serving God Or Baal???

The Bible speaks of Elijah who 
challenged the prophets of Baal.
To see who’s God was true.  
And who’s God would fail!

The prophets of Baal cried 
out to their God in vain.
But when Elijah cried to his God... 
Then the fire came!

Disciples: How will we know True from False Prophets?

Teacher: You will cooperatively discern them
by their polyculturing love.

When does fear that disasters are becoming too relentlessly true,
masquerade as anger that such events and facts and trends
must not be true,
conspiracies of over-powering elites?

Fear and anger are bipolar...

Bodhisattvas turn airflow into flames,
water into Earth
as Jesus turned baptismal waters
into blood red rivers
of warm nutritious wine.

Bodhisattvas,
like Messiah prophets and saints,
long for

the baptismal political economy
of cooperative ecotherapeutic waters,
as yin flows air MidWay notnot pathological
through Yang's Great Transitional flames
ecstatically leaping,
empowerment "hungry"
for air's co-arising health-optimizing

Premium Member Ode To Two Poets and the Poetry Soup Prophets Hip Hop Remix
Yo I know 2 poets, one young and one old,
Bold, and bright, bodacious,
But still gracious, perspicacious, never racist,
Moving to the beat of two generations,
Elations, facing nations, speaking truth to power,
This is their hour, 
Yo, I know 2 poets, one young and one old,
Farah and Gary...

False Prophets
Pimp C (RIP) often said it

On a song that is often

In many hood homes played

Everybody sittin in the pulpit

Ain't saved most preachers

Just false prophets

Prophets freaking pros

And getting paid."

 

When I was younger

I knew it was true but

I never gave it much,

Much thought Pimp C

what is the true pattern of consciousness in this immense universe?
how far into the overwhelming breach has awareness been dispersed?

in the depths of exhaustion, the dark silent stillness nourishes me
universe is full of entities which act surreptitiously

from ignition, our sun has shown each second of...

POEM: Welcome to Palestine. The land of the prophets and the martyrs. 


Let’s show show some respect, and bow down in humility…
Gaza may be small, but their angels are all over and as far as the eye can see..
 
Saying Herod, Nimrod, and Pharoah are...
