SWANA Zion Reich and LoadThe cradle of three of the biggest faiths
Rocked by the claim one agenda stakes
Locked and loaded and ready for war
With righteous blessings for terror and gore
Sentiments civilities and landscapes pitted
All of human decency finally outwitted

Zion CallsA sanctuary waits for me
Beside a woodland stream;
Creatures chatter, beast and bird,
Dithering among the trees,
Engaged in nature’s repartee.
Fungi, moss, and flower
Gather in this shady, holy space,
Habitat of happy innocence,
Idyllic, secret forest glade.
Just let me linger in the quiet,
Kneel beneath the trees,
Listen to the lessons
Majestic nature...

ZionI ask…myself
Where does hope reside
In one’s spirit
Despite obstacle’s
The journey continues
Yesterday cannot be relived
To exact will
For tomorrow’s truth
Lingers for no man
There is no victory
In returning to yesterday
Though we all desire
Our memories to be reborn
The promise must be held
Throughout the daily struggle
It is the clear mind that...

Mount ZionOnce upon a time, my life was on track
Moving onward, achieving all my goals
Revered by my peers, their pats on my back
They praised my advice and said it was gold
Its was nice that they cared enough to call me
They would say "Mitch, I'm glad you...

Becoming the Ruler of ZionYou have the gene in you
and the potential is indeed luminous
but you want to roar
while still a mere cub.
Wait and pass through the test
cos if it's not a Lion
it can never be a Lion.
Being a part of the family isn't enough
being mentioned in the roll-call...

Daughters of Zion
Farewell to you,
Young daughters of Zion -
I walk away to find
My own Promised Land
Farewell to you ,
Who grow in denial,
Who fight old oppression,
While new one has come
Farewell to you -
Your fury
-Fist – clenching
Your beauty
-Unnoticed
Your nights
- Filled with fear
Farewell...

What Is the Sound of Zion?What is the sound of zion?
Is it furious thunder and the raucous of revolution?
Is it Chimes cascading a symphonic climax?
Perhaps?
But I tell you, the sound of zion, is more than just that!
It is the coo, the giggle, and the mischievous cough of a soul that...

Peace In ZionExcite my sex.
Make heavy my force
with its longing for life.
Vehement ejections
in vain; flowing
on arid soil.
Where are the
fertile grounds
of my orchids.
Flood rigid
the core of my determination,
so that I may thrust forward.
May I impale
the lust of my life
with burning,
so that I may reap
the fruits
of my seed.
Tremor...

Dramatic Monologue
A City Called ZionZion is a Kingdom Paradigm
Zion is an ideal Paradise
A City with foundations whose Architect is Judah’s Lion
A City encased in an awesomely inspiring Pavilion
Babel is built in a shallow Drain
Zion is built on a rocky Plain
Babel is built upon the mortal Hills
Zion is built upon...

ZionAdjectives can't cut it
When you're gazing up in awe.
Even photos don't do justice
To describe what you just saw.
The colors and formations -
Different every way you turn -
Are reminders that with travel,
There is so much you can learn.
I am humbled and I'm grateful
That I've had the...

Departure of ZionAs my eyes dwindled on the first glimpse
helplessness racked a stifled heartbeat.
It was there I set my foundations,
my structure for a hope strong tower
that would shield you from fates cruel blows.
My love for you was evident,
it seen me through the darkest days.
You held my...
