This Is Where I Rise

Let it be known—
this is where I rose.

Not from victory,
but from void.
Not from praise,
but from prayerless nights
with no answer.

I rose not like sunlight,
but like stone breaking through its tomb.
Not like wind—
but like silence that chose to speak.

This is where I shed the skin of survival.
Where I buried the man
who begged for belonging.
Where I kissed the hands of pain
and said, “Your work is done.”

I am no longer waiting.
Not for love, not for country,
not for the applause of blind kings.

I carry a pen that knows thunder.
I walk with a gaze that remembers Egypt.

I was not born to chase wealth—
I was born to carve memory into sky.

Let those who knew me say:
He fell many times—
but when he rose,
the Earth shifted.

Let the old gods bear witness.

This is not the end.
This is the beginning
of the man the stars feared
and the world forgot.

I have returned.
Whole.
Holy.
On fire.

When They Said

When they said he is losing his mind, I was awakening.

When they said he is  segregating himself, I was healing.

When they said he is behaving comic, I was growing.

When they said I had  changed, I was evolving.

When they said I don't care anymore, eventually I understood that my peace lives within.

Iam

I am that patient in the behavioral health units who entered into the mental world of the unknown..!  

I am that prisoner behind the bars who committed  heinous crime.

I am the judge who passed the sentence on that criminal who was hanged yesterday.

 I am that might lion walking in the savanna land of Africa.

I am that meandering river down the mountains until I reach  the sea.

 I am that prostitute standing on the corner of the 7th Street waiting for you.

I am that black man who was killed by the police in the 7th Street last night.

I am the one you are searching for in the mosque, in the church,and in the temples .

But who are you, "I am God" the causeless cause ....!!!!

The Devil incarnate

The ship was coming towards us, their eyes held the blue color of deception, the skin pinkish glow.

Smelled poverty with a demonic appetite to murder and plunder the resources of others. 

A fictitious smile appeared on their faces, and the devil incarnate imaged in them. These are demonic new creatures on Earth. 

Stepped on the fertile land, it became barren, their presence polluted the natural world,the devil incarnate is here now!

Where there was happiness, they brought miseries. 

Where they were abundance, they brought scarcity.

Where they were peace, they brought conflict.

Where they were healing, they brought aggravate.

Where they were holiness, they brought wickedness.

Where they were brotherhood and sisterhood,  they brought hatred. 

Where they were oneness, they brought Discord.

The Devil incarnate is here. He is the source of evil in the world today.

Donald Trump

Mr. President, you have fought bravely,
The world has witnessed you eclipsing your fear and obstacles.
Do not rest. There's miles to go.

The world asks you to be an exemplary leader
The shimmering light of hope.

This day was an ultimate goal
Look ahead and dream possibilities for America and the world.

Unleash your abilities and make this world a better place, may peace rain in the Middle East, Ukraine, Asia, and Africa.

Mr. Donald John Trump, Congratulations on your 47th presidency.!!

Go and be a solution to the world.

The Theotokos

God bless a woman.You are a mother of God. In Your Presence,deep silence Takes Flight.

You are a true  poem, a living verse,and a testament to the Cosmos. You are the Theotokos from the beginning to the end. 

Your presence is a true symphony,a sweet melody,that brings harmony and Serenity into the Soul of the Cosmos. 

Your laughter is the music of the spheres,dances in the air, and filling our souls with joy beyond contrast.

Your beauty blossoms Like a Fragrant rose.Your eyes are a lake of mystery and desire.You Ignite passion, setting souls on fire, you are truly Indeed a Theotokos

You create by whispering secrets and dreams to the Cosmos. 

Your spirit is vibrant and full of life,inspires love, and hope. You, The Theotokos, You Are a Masterpiece of Beauty, standing Tall in Stardust.

Your inner beauty shines with an Everlasting Divine Light. You Move with the Rhythm of Creation.

In triple darkness,you ignite the night with Divine light of truth. Each word you speak is a precious song to The Cosmos. 
Your smile lights up the world.

You are the Theotokos, the Mother of God, Your womb is inclusive, never exclusive!

Idiots of The Nation

Standing on the springboard of idiocity, spitting out lies  shamelessly. Idiots of the nation in the corridors of power.

Preaching shadows of democracy but catalysts of  democratic backsliding committing heinous crimes  in the broad daylight. The idiots of the nation in the corridors of power.

Their Satanic hypocrisy is the product of their arrogance and mental stupidity. Their big ego blinds them from ultimate reality.

Pretending to be superior while standing on the shoulders of the masses, the idiots of the nation in the corridors of power. 

Novel entities of society lack moral values, being drunk with power. lot of the mumbo jumbo from their mouth .

Turning politics into business of lies and manipulation, the idiots of the nation in the corridors of power.

Robbing the poor and destroying their nations, mischief-makers on the world stage. thinking with their bottom and not the top !

Climbing the ladder of success dubiously and ruthlessly, committing organised crime day and night against their nations. 

Idiots of the nation standing on the springboard of idiocity!

Iam from Africa

I am from Africa, and my name is Africa, I come from the Queens and Kings of the bemba Kingdom. We are bantu-speaking people .

I am from Africa, the birthplace of humanity, and my melanin is the same dark matter in the universe.

I am the mother and the father of all human races, Europe, and Asia. I gave birth to them they are my children.

I breastfeed the world, and  without me, the world economy would collapse.

I am from Africa, and I have  been abused,sodomised, and raped by my own children. All my children they look down upon me.

My spirit of Ubuntu is seen as cowardice by my children, iam an eyesore to my children. My skin color is said to be inferior by the "Shallow-minded." 

I am from Africa, the house of abundance, the place where we bathe in the sunshine, and speak to the gods of the universe. 

They say, iam less evolved human and iam backward, but I saw the sun before you. I am the first and the last .

I am from Africa. we are the sons and daughters of the sun, and we believe in the brotherhood and sisterhood of humanity.

I am from Africa, and it is my darkness that gave birth to light.

Saint Satanyahu

Saint Satanyahu, a patron saint of death and deep sorrow in the world today. 

You are a vampire among men and a devil among angels.

Saint Satanyahu, the world today is in pain and deep sorrow because of the  darkness of your soul. 

Savior of the fewer West, but enslaver of the world and  Unforgettable serial killer.

In the rivers of the Middle East, you have spilled blood , found guilty by the Church of ICC.

But shielded by your spoiled sisters Amerigo and Europa,the impunity enjoyed.

Saint Satanyahu, the world is in tears having you walking through it.

You have left a painful imprint on the consciousness of humanity.

You have brought Darkness upon this world, but the world shall see light again..!!!

The Boffin

You boffin from The Caucasus Mountains, are you a devil or human?You have destroyed my seeds, the source of my survival.

I used to grow my seeds, which gave birth to more seeds on the same piece of land, but today, you have killed my original seed.

You boffin, are you a curse or a blessing to humanity? Why have you assassinated our ecosystem,which was self-sustaining and thriving.

I never invited you to come upon my land. You have sucked out all the nutrients from my original seeds. Your goal is to see us Perish .

You boffin, are you simply a long-term liability to creation, or you are here to colonise my food by  contaminating my original seeds. 

What have I done to you to deserve so much evil and wickedness from you? Everywhere you go, you  create chaos and miseries.

You boffin, you have brought synthetic seeds upon my land and total destruction of the natural world.

You boffin, are your acts of human or devil?

Into The Storm

Called from afar to a Journey unknown, they Stepped into the boat 
The ocean was calm,not a Cloud in sight.

They asked, "Where are we Going?" He said 'into the Storm' to reveal what lies Within,they did not Understand, for they could Not see.

Three days into the journey 
They were hungry and weak 
Dark clouds surrounded Them,the waves grew Higher, the wind more Fierce .

The little boat was battered 
Yet not broken Still, it Stayed afloat.

They wondered how that Could be. The thurnder Roared, and they seized With fear.

As their lives flashes before Them, "What have we Done?" they cried out,
He said, "You have Forgotten me,yet i have not Forgotten you." 

"Who are you?" they asked.
In a gentle voice, he Answered, "the one who Holds the keys... I am he. " 

Suddenly, the wind died Down, and the ocean was Calm.

They stood in silence as a Ray of sun appeared. It Shone into their souls. As They turned to look for the Stranger, He was gone.

They found themselves Alone.

Now, they understood the First time the effect Mystery of the storm.

The Children of Gaza

The Children of Gaza are heroes in front of the world,
Helpless and ignored,  starved to death but hopeful.

Enveloped in mass brutality and unbridled cruelty.

Their grandparents , mothers and fathers have been killed.

The Children of Gaza, so adored and dear, Confiscated of their humanity, their childhood stolen away ruthlessly.

The Children of Gaza, their future lost and destroyed,
Is this the world they dreamed..?

Dreams are unfulfilled, thoughts and ideas forever gone in deep sorrow.

In this unreasonable tragic drama, no justification is to be found....!!!!

Yet,the world cries for you. And you shall survive and thrive.

Model Town

Model Town mein aik Wali rehta tha,
Jo Logon say kehta tha,
Chanda day do.
Zakaat day do.
Nazrana day do.
Fitrana day do.
Couplet
Qabron say kamai kar lo,
Pait haraam say bhar lo...

Christmas Elves

CHRISTMAS ELVES

Come listen to a tale of lessons learned.
How I now cringe remembering when  I
Reached up and touched a red-clad elf and turned
Idyllic moments to a time to cry!
Such ignorance! My grandson told me that
To touch an elf will break the magic spell.
My pleas to be forgiven all fell flat
At first. I'm glad to say things turned out well.
Sweet letters to irked elves can sometimes be

Enough to bring their Christmas magic back.
Long flights to Santa Claus can guarantee
Victorious good kids. Gifts--they won't lack.

Each time I see that little elf, I make
Sure I don't touch it so no hearts will break.


The Elf on the Shelf, a book by Carol  Aebersold and Chanda Bell, tells of little elf figures that show up at young children's houses just after Thanksgiving, observe the children's behavior, fly to the North Pole nightly till Christmas Eve to report to Santa, fly back, and land in a new spot each time. The elf is NOT to be touched.
