Confidence, Clean Air, Confluence, Clash of Civilizations
In the confluence of dreams and desires,
Where the heart's fire burns with fervent fires,
Confidence rises like a beacon bright,
Guiding us through the darkest night.
Each step we take, a leap of faith,
Chasing dreams across the starlit wraith.
But doubts linger in the depths of the mind,
Like shadows cast by the moon's kind.
Yet amidst the doubts, a glimmer

Alien Civilizations
A question that has baffled man since day one
Are there other beings similar to ours out there
In all likelihood without a doubt I say yes
The odds are astronomical to be otherwise
We only need view the map of the heavens
To lead us to this logical conclusion
Odds must surely be (astronomical x infinite)
To resemble us is a

Lost Civilizations Forgotten Magical Words
SPLIT the atom of my heart no matter what
Oh the stars felt that grace inside their burning soul
Oh both time and space\
see what i have seen:
all my Soul
all my Heart
THAT spirit passed before me
-- to behold a face called Immortality completely unveiled.
Oooh. And as she stood there formless but divine as pilots
of all storms in dreams

That Kinda Day
ONE
I did go to 5am prayers, with flashlight, and at 4:30
Felt remorse for my faults, as neighbor, leader, pastor ...
Even prayed for my enemies and foes, whosoever will!
Even interceding for China and the coronavirus angst, global near-panic
Lovers lost and promises broken, telling others "Celibacy is do-able!"
TWO
This day went well as far as teaching about

Sooner or later without any doubt
Beings from space will be wandering about
Of this I'm certain
Perhaps a different version
And they might even like sauerkraut

A Journey Through Civilizations
It never takes me
More than a wink of an eye
To travel from the Levant people
To the people of Minoa
Via yellow river, Norte Chico
Egypt, Harappa and Mesopotamia
I’d seen enough falls and rises
Like the ocean’s weaves
Embedded with few moment’s high tides
And receding low ebbs
While

Civilizations Epitaph
Civilizations Epitaph
I got more
Surrender
I got more
More bombs ‘n missiles

Surrender ‘n live
Fight ‘n die
‘cause I got more

‘an I’ll take it all by force
‘cause I got more
Give it up ‘an live
Fight for it ‘an die
So what if I am
A blood bath thief
I want more
‘an I got more
Than you

Civilizations
Through this mound of darken earth
I see signs of civilizations birth
A shard of pottery a piece of bone
Once this place was for man a home
Nothing civilized ever last
All that was civilized will pass
You walk the tombs of ancient man
Gradually with each step you understand
The grander the wonder the majesty of it all
Yet where did it

New Civilizations
help it to swell, to invent new
boundaries, let it penetrate the mind,
follow the blood flow to its core,
take on the challenge of venturing
into untouched realms of interpretation.
i want you to feel it gaining momentum.
i want you to know i am quickly approaching
the apex.
you will soon be gone,
but it is not meant to end like this.
