A so-called kill list exists in Ukraine,
With teenagers, American journalists, and more,
But what kind of list is this, and why?
Is it conscionable, or just a ploy?
The world is filled with weapons of destruction,
And violence-oriented movies, too,
So could these be the cause of this list,
And the reason why it's come to view?
The actors in these movies are anti-gun,
So why are these movies made?
Is it to desensitize us to violence,
Or is there something else at stake?
The journey ahead may bring us answers,
To the questions that we seek,
But until then, the so-called kill list,
Will remain a mystery to me.

Your level of consciousness determine your survival and your devotion, you must become sensitive to the spirit of God, so that the eyes of the soul see that it's gold, the knowledge of self let me know. my destiny I control, people become victims of fate because they don't know, the true essence of life that pervades the entire universe, In my heart I ask what is life worth If I can't be myself, dying inside a little everyday from a psychological mind state that is the result of self-hate, normal is just a word society, use to desensitize you, to behaviors that are truly barbaric, from our ancestors we inherit the secret knowledge that makes us divine, black people been kings and queens for a long time, If you do your research and study you will find no race can live in peace, living in societies created by European beast, our neighborhoods and communities are filled with poison, ourselves we destroying, just to live in America

The poet's mission - to desensitize an over sensitive world...

When your heart is broken and your spirit down cast
Remember the Words He's Spoken and forget your past
Fear is a liar and is trying to lure away your very soul
In many problems he'll mire knowing they'll take their toll
He's trying to get you alone so he can take you from His Side
And where there is no Light being shown he can easily hide
Piece by piece and bit by bit he begins to desensitize your heart
We all must admit that somewhere these things got their start
God's Word is like a fence keeping him out while keeping you in
His Word you can also sense as you now sense the effects of sin
But the devil will not like it and will fight you every step of the way
Only knowing when it's time to quit when he no longer has his say
Don'tt put it off any longer in knowing how Jesus feels about you
You will only get stronger in these feelings becoming more true
He Created you, knowing you much more than you know yourself
And one thing will be true, you will notice the effects on your health
Psalms 37:4
Take delight in the LORD,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

As gypsy winds ensnare the inner child
with jasmine blossoms scenting up the air
and spring’s inspiring rebirth...nature’s wild
awakening, replenishing what’s bare.
Azalea smiles in colors, lilacs peak
while inner child is laughing, full of glee.
Each day a new discovery to seek
around the country edges growing free.
Yet dusty pollen layers budding leaves,
encoded sinuses respond in kind.
The beauty, allergies and Kleenex sleeves
for sneezes, teary eyes but hopeful mind.
So little pill from heaven do your stuff,
desensitize the pollen’s sneezy snuff.

Execution of love simply by the crimes committed by the heart
crimes of passion or lust where do we start?
heart racing anticipating the moment of death
setting it free with the last breath
penalize by the charges against thee
raping the emotion murdering of the soul screaming begging and pleading
how dare the heart allow for this to happen
robbery of thoughts even kidnapping
falling for the wrong consumed by another
careless behavior has sent him farther
so far gone there's no turning back
a thief in the night as understood based on fact
caught off guard loosing control of self
no one to guide no one around to ask for help
a social path desensitize from all feeling
unable to grasp or feel the heart beating
as these crimes that were committed
love is on the line the heart has admitted
a confession of reckless behavior
only death is the perfect savior
the heart deserves no defense
putting it out of misery will finally lay it to rest
buried six feet under ground
love no longer exist it will not be found

I have seen to much suffering and pain
Shattered feelings
As I look out my windowpane
It’s more in-depth than you can imagine
Terrorism to desecrate and intimidate
The tragedy more than you can fathom
I put on the TV tonight
Things just aren’t right
My heart fell, my face dropped
More killing and more hurt
You can desensitize
But I tend to analyze
And ask the questions why
In this existence
The life we know
Can there be no peace
No glow
Fighting for this
Fighting for that
Soldiers losing their lives in
Combat
All for what?
The money strut
It’s driving a wedge
Between man
All that is Green
Is pooling the blood
On his hands

And the silence perfumes madness
With a drifting scent; the words
Stand tall, lonely and oh so square
Like Wise Old Men, deciding
Their fate and time: skipping,
On the dotted-line, through
Feeling; thrashing it's stinger
Wasp-like, up and down our spine
'Til we turn like snakes and coil;
Wrapped in red sunshine and
Spelled out across the rocks
Like an open-wound, and salt-
Water lashing against the sores.
As the tide tugs between us,
We slither towards a common goal
For sand or water- anything really
That's not quite as jagged as reality,
Or as toothy as perception
With his hungry mouth open
To desensitize feeling; weathering
Rocks to perches where we'd sit upon and kiss
The waves as they'd break, cold,
Upon our ankles- smooth
And imperfect; We, if there's any
Chance of us, must become the rock
As much as we're the wave
Sliding across foreign shores
Like some endless serpent
Lying in a starry repose,
Stretched out and
Waiting to strike.
