Wheel of the Year

The wheel of the year has turned again. 
New growth is on its way. 
WE sow seed and watch it grow ,what we say and do is the seed of life. 
There is one Earth,one human race with variations .
Our bodies replenish the Earth , our sould travel on to where we desire .
This whole world is connected ,little fish feed bigger fish, krill ,so tiny, replenish giant 
whales. 
One chain of life which feeds off one another, the Darwinian theory isnt evolution but 
survival and the ability to adapt.
 All creatures great and small adapt to their surroundings. 
Only the Human Race finds this difficult to understand we kill for pleasure ,for the thrill, 
for excitement for some who have closed minds. 
Wearrive here naked , we leavr here naked that is an irrefutable fact even for billionairs 
and kings and rulers. 
So the wheel turns again in its never ending circle of life, nothing changes except some 
numbers the cycle of the world stays the same in an never ending story.

Premium Member Florida Man 6

A Florida man and home raider,
hid from cops in a lake; met a gator.
He came to real harm
when it bit off his arm,
and he died not very much later.

A Marriage To Escape Being Dissolved

For what Baptism has left unsolved
Any Darwinian hope for the Newly Evolved?
There mustn’t be another vile scar
From a cheating on a flying car!

Vera should’ve the thing tried at some bar,
Just for her man, everywhere A Star,
To pursuers unreachable because far …

Yes, round The Scandalous had the thing revolved,
The subject not likely to be absolved,
Because of the inglorious lot involved
And an infuriating infidelity scarcely resolved…

A marriage to escape being dissolved

Cerebrum Devolution

Most laboratory mischievous
was a petri dish birth of the patent soulless
Retrograde thought waves,
cold stream of computer code consciousness
Clone algorithm doppelgänger breathe
into a body of artificial intelligence theory 
Hollow cranial cavity
filled with synthetic mitochondria propagation — 
Grey matter reversal movement,
Neanderthal cortical activity cybernetic

Experimental genome project,
primeval opaque was the ethical manifest
Microchip implants
rooted in Pleistocene motive — 
Darwinian conquest: 	Amygdala tool
	        was nano technological, 
at its terabyte best
Cerebrum devolution was a scientific success!

Test tube pre-cogs
predict a quark-y future gray
Matter of terminal importance
on a backward timer delay

Mesozoic void was the synaptic quantum leapfrog

Cerebral core of humanity drifting away
		        on a data entry log
	Into the primordial fog 
of a deity devoid day

Premium Member Nature At Its Darwinian Best

Dare challenge me? 
Then be my guest …

The stags enter into a jousting quest,
No time now for antlers to rest,
The challenger locks his horny crest,
With focused stare and forceful zest,
A testosterone and power fest,
Nature at its Darwinian best.

Into the gene-pool 
He wished to invest,
Can he suceed,
Survive this test?


Mountain Meaning Iv - New Being

I imagine
A day with plants and no plastics

No oil gas or coal dug up and sprayed from underneath
No trees removed
No bees boxed up

No smoke curled to the blue sky
No animals carved up and slaughtered

We
The Gods of Technology
Living in a universe separate and freed

From the violent capitalist divine of Nature
And from our own wild Darwinian instincts

Driving us like depressed unsatisfied madmen
To consume s**t sleep and reproduce

Consume s**t sleep and reproduce
Consume s**t sleep and reproduce
Consume s**t sleep and reproduce

To wonder from this cycle
What is the meaning?

Climbing a mountain because it is there

Yes
I imagine when each human being
Is but an artist an angel a scientist philosopher

Modern pioneers of less not more
Cuddling to Love that’s real Within.

Chaos Theory Deconstructed

having missed 
the sunday sermon
barring nature 
from self-organizing
believed to be a sin 
against the law of entropy

unstable air mixes 
bitter cold with warm            
moist masses collide with dry
forming in the closet of night 
and breach of day
an ephemeral sign

forming a why 
where heaven never shows
and no Word appears 
but a humble messenger
without trumpet or salutation 
now descending
in silence drawn 
by mass of earth

From chaos 
order increases,
out of thin air 
new information,
symmetry of design
by nature's hand,

bearing little weight
upon the sacred
edifice, but
challenging,
by yet one more
fell blow,
Darwinian
denial:

a crystal
of snow.

Trump Tigerjade Poem

Dear Leader Tigerjade Poem writing.com prompt


Our leader 
great leader 
Claims he is the smartest man in the whole universe
surely he is the most searched man in the googleverse
perhaps though he is proof of man’s evolution 
Darwinian selection working devolution 
stupid is
stupid does

Chlor Ide-For Maureen Mcgreavy

more reen
i miss sting
ing in my
red eyes

from perhaps
too much swim
ming in your
poetry

but i did try
wearing googles
and it was worse
then google

every word had
a sales tag on
something special
but i didn't especially

like that much
i just want to
as crazy as it
might sound

touch your words
for i know that
every word
choosen

is not
darwinian
selection of
the strongest

and fittest but
how you choose
the perfect word
though awkwardly

fits
the
finish
of your

poem

Cosmic Glimmer

In the blink of an eye of eternity,
with ceaseless Darwinian stride 
from our earliest stage to modernity,
we dwelt on this earth and we died…

It wasn’t our land though we thought so
while stomping about in our frets.
We rhetorized peace, yet we fought so
throughout our begats and begets.

In a wrinkle of space in infinity
we crowned ourselves king of the sphere,
killing everything in the vicinity
without even shedding a tear.

If only we still could awaken
from dreams that have led us astray
to visions no longer mistaken
of a truly enlightened way…

Premium Member We Are But a Mere Blink

We Are But A Mere Blink


This blue marble spins like a top
 ever forward in time, never stop
Yesterday was a picture so long ago
 a bloody river in epic timeless flow

Yet we could never give up our past
 memory serves to make love everlast
Time is so like a never ending tree
 life never lasts and nothing is free

Life measured by the beats of a heart
 future seen looking back at the start 
Flesh wraps the soul so hidden within
 time erases all that has ever been

This blue marble exists for just a mere blink
Mankind lasts forever, or so WE arrogantly think!

Robert J. Lindley  , 08-12-2014

note:
According to research, the universe is approximately 
13.8 billion years old.
Scientists think that the Earth is 4.54 billion years old.
Mankind may be as old as 7 million years.
Most scientists would reply that modern Man probably 
appeared around 100,000 years ago, the culmination of 
a long-drawn process of Darwinian evolution which begun
 several million years ago.
Compare 100,000 years against  13,800,000,000 years!
We are a blink....

The Social Darwinism

O we are all very well informed 
how horrible might been our reality
in the time  of transition
from one evil regime to other.
When one day all monsters and predators
from the park of totalitarian  communistic  Jurassic 
suddenly exploded  out  for absolute freedom
according with Darwinian law of surviving,  
when cruelty and greediness 
suppressed  long time 
by  cruel regime and power 
started  make big business and police
and comrades from  monopolistic party - 
the sable tooth tigers, tycoon and oligarchs - 
inspired  again  as  hundred years ago
with primarily criminal and degenerating  instincts, pretexts  and  postulates
under the Marxist’s  coverage and context,
launched  now  the new but  the same adventure 
leading to great social tragedy inevitable,  
where government playing chief role  of Ti Rex
instead keeping  the harmony and sustainable existence
protecting  cheeps, rabbits, turtles and others multiple  small creatures 
from total extinction, 
learn them for art  of  surviving  and flourishing
through social interaction and protection   
what would left again as unreachable aim and utopia
 for our long suffered nation.

Loss

Why is it so much harder
to lose than to gain?

Why does what we don’t possess
plague us so much, while all we have
is so abundant?

Is it a kind of Darwinian determinism?
Determined to hunger for what we imagine?

Gratification devolves into disappointment 
in an instant.

Like food fed into a grinder,
Pulp recycled into new hungers.

If I could lose my hunger,
Maybe I could lose my loss?

What Do You Believe?

My Liege-
if you please,
I'd like to discuss the Darwinian siege.

Do you believe?

From the oceans we heaved,
as every creature you now see.
According to Darwin-
Humans and chimps- we are kin.
This I do say with a grin...

It is a discussion which can never win-

Or, is it God?
To this I give a nod
Yet some think it odd.

Does it really matter?

My Dear-
I am glad we are here
Upon this giant, rotating sphere,
And for that I shout a cheer!

A. Green
