Traditional tribals that followed Sioux religion,
Had spiritual beliefs
performed controversial dance ceremonies,
Waken- the great spirit
was one universal source,
Mother Earth birthed all
animals, plants and humans,
Black Elk sheltered all,
The sacred hoop said unity,
Circles symbolised oneness,

Invisible Great spirit was Sioux God,
Thunderbird powerful spirit of sky,
Underwater spirits that...

The American Eagle
The American eagle, called bald ‘cos of its pure white head, 
Is named Haliaeetus leucocephalus, from the Greek;
Hali means  "sea", aietos means “eagle", leuco "white", 
And cephalos simply means the “head" with the streak. 

The bald eagle lives near the sea, a river or...

Whats the Point
Power Point Presentation on Meditation was underway
Eyes, ears glued to central points, narrative was on
Suddenly someone sneezed, concentration frittered away 
Missed the Point, presentor thought, yet went on

Came in pointless sorry, presentation went ahead 
Breathing Techniques discussed, right postures shown
Suddenly someone farted, all noses squeezed...

Love Letters
Adorable, descriptive of a love divine,
Beguiling smile the emblem of a hallowed shrine,
Communication symbolised a sacred sign,
Diamond eyes, the stars above forever shine.
Entrancing, sweetest perfume on the warmest night,
Foretelling greater futures with a second sight,
Gorgeous in the breaking of the dawning light,
Honesty igniting, true and...

Carbonated Carbonisation
A mystical mayhem is a deity left undisturbed. Yet in corrosive eras even a sharp shrapnel can shatter even the most strongest of iron souls. Interesting is it? The formations. The planned plane. The corrosive killers. Plan not a wield upon a shield. And merely...

Home and Hearth (For the Wise Children of Earth)
Tell me the secrets to your life, bushman
Show me how to befriend the garish land
Guide me through nature’s surviving devotion
Teach me with dry eye that knows no ocean
Lead me to hope in battlefields dead
Limit the sweat drops that stroke my forehead
Grace the cracked crevice of...

Hope
When the clouds hovered in the sky 
And the cold breeze blew 
They marked the arrival of rain 
Dispensing a gloomy view

Soon the clouds started to cry
Just as I had assumed
The soil bore the weight of their tears 
Eventually deepening it's own wounds

Plants tried to...

Premium Member The Crystal Ball
While I waltzed at the Ball
A little voice I heard
Go ask the Crystal Ball
It said, to have your future heard!

I left the dancing knight in doom in the playroom
Opened the door of the secret room
And verily inquired of the Future
If it will come with Defeature!

No,...

Setting a Place Apart
The shaded lane leads to the estuary
and mud banks sculpted by the constant sea,
expose their drying backs beneath the sun
before once more in ebb and flow are gone.
 
Over a sty a path leads from the lane
to skirt a manor standing proud and vain,
old tenants...

Tablespoons Talking
A tablespoon is merely a tablespoon but not when placed on a table. It is merely an impediment of judgement to attempt to eradicate constitutional rights and beans jump very high when put in a nine foot pan. When the stove is at the correct...

Situations stirring like a great big bee. Finishing annihilation aimed at a tree. Forty-six fishes means a great big line. And a pool of senses is neither a slime nor a faith. In a nine centimetre goblet there is existing a catacomb of unauthorized doctrines...

A Dance With a Prancing Prawn Should Be Held At Dawn With Birdsongs
The idiosyncrasies of a semi idolised biscuit is often symbolised by riotous clapping sessions. By camels who love to crunch. But a crunch is neither a cream, a crevasse, a cape nor is it a crammed carton. So in fact is it better to rise...
