Justice In the Quest For Love
I saw how martyrs longed for love, and so began the play of my flitting heart
A strange girl had I become, with airs of fickle dream,
My heart an embodiment of wonder to all that dared to behold it
Closing my eyes, I would find myself knowing...

The bulbs hum with color in this off-white cube.
I move slowly, to catch the glimpse that's doob. 
I wobble and drift through the sails of my mind.
Searching for peacefulness in this sleepless rind.

Outside forces can feel remote and far away.
I stalk a distant...

new nation to craft
founding fathers sought to draft
a declaration of independence
document that made sense

Thomas Jefferson sought to free slaves
but was warned not to make waves
five of thirteen colonies
he had to appease

breaking from British rule
ignited a duel
with each colonial delegate
expressing their regret

they could not sign
they would...

Premium Member Quest For Gold
painted desert lay before them
hills with rings of gold and amber clay
few plants, scarce water
just a coyote or roadrunner

on horseback they rode
dreaming of hidden gold
saddlebags filled with mining tools
but not one nugget of treasure

badlands had not been kind to them
but determination still burned
another excavation, another...

Quest For God
From the beginning, people have asked themselves,
how God came into being or how God creates from nothing?
The God seekers are advancing ethical axioms
and truth is withstanding the test of experience.
Human mind is made out for reason and truth.
Reason gives us freedom
and freedom makes a human...

Man's Quest For A Greater Future

Sunken man, a mystery in the making
 earth gives and gives to we so selfishly taking
Blue sky, giving color to a tired, hectic life
 time to sit to rest , to break from daily strife

Shattered homes, they decay as we...

I will take flight, into another zone
how far off to wander 'tis now not known
no regret, as dear point is to be free
beyond sadness, into a joyful sea
to a purple land, a paradise realm
I hopeful master, captain at the helm
with love and hope as true...

Awful rumors arose on a rainy day at twilight.
Dwelling in darkness, guilty of stealing light.
Drops in rhyme, color-and-time lyrics draw me.
Through vibrant strokes, a love riot sings poetry...

If you quest for a mate, I'll be yours if you abide
Friends and mates, a loop that will never glide.
In close propinquity to one another, we will reside.  
With our motley efforts, we can swivel the tide.
Fused by the bonds of oneness, harmoniously we...

   MY QUEST  

I lost my heart. Where can it be? There is sadness and despair.
If I were to search for all eternity, I may never find it anywhere.
I've delved beneath oceans deep, on beaches when tides are low.
In canyon crevices, I...

What if a child dreams of becoming someone other than what society had
 
Intended?

What if a child aspires to something greater?

What if the first light of knowledge held the seeds of unity?

What if society embraced the hope of the stars?


When a world takes the bread...
