Designate Poems

Occult Whispers

Do you summon new or old
secret places?

Sanctuaries of Hidden Sacred Spaces?

Transforming and restructuring unseen realities, and visions of old or new faces?

To even build bridges to cross contradictions of ego, self and even trauma?

To walk away from low places: linked to old cities like Sodom and Gomorrah?

Using a diverse mixture of letters as a supernatural or mystical quality?

To create and help override everyday experiences of regression or depression? 

Using wisdom, spiritual insight, and intuition?

If so, this occult spell is for just you, to help you win.

"Quasi ventus surgas et vincas omnia peccato coniuncta." (L)

(May you rise like the wind and conquer all things linked to sin)

Occult: 

A term that was originally used in Latin to designate the hidden or unseen properties of things and that, since the 16th century, has also been used to characterise religious traditions that include belief in unseen forces or that otherwise behave in a secretive or mysterious manner.

Sodom and 
Gomorrah, in this case, reflects any situations linked to corruption and sin.

Energy Creates

As energy accumulates,

It also creates,

Operates,

In different states.

Obtaining traits,

Learning to propagate,

Designing a substrate,

Continuing to circulate.

It starts to vibrate,

Concentrate,

Learning to duplicate,

A code to translate.

A way to activate,

And begin to animate,

As the air mutates,

Into shapes that fascinate.

Molecules starts to migrate,

As they rotate and calibrate,

Delegate and designate,

Into something great.

One able to captivate,

Encapsulate,

A being to dictate,

How its energy will create.

Crossroads


Here I stand
Amidst the Crossroads of Life
Abandoned, Worldly Pleasures behind me, Forsaken Crimson Wasteland

Here I Am
Pouring Libations to the Oracle of Truth
Selfish Desires Beyond Me, Rites of the Sacrificial Lamb

Messenger of the Crossroads, I Prostrate Before Thee
Time as a ever Rolling Stream, A Speckled Phantasmagoria
I look forward as my Faith is Sealed, The Shaman's Stone Revealed My Destiny

On my Right
Kindred Patriarchs Hold my Hand
Designate Strength to Avoid Dismay for Eternity
Fortify Me With Sturdy Ideals, May I Stand Upright

On my Left
Nurturing Matriarchs, Soothed, Comforted and Healed
Suckled And Secured, I Yield, Restored am I, Divine Spirit of Purity
Here I Stand Before the Thinning Veil, Maiden of Unbounded Weft.

Premium MemberGood Day By Max Burchett

by Maxwell "Max" Sebastian Burchett


I present these lyrics today,
For you to consider if you would,
An idea I propose, to find a way
To designate a day for doing good.

It is about time now
We start finding a way
That leads us somehow
To a brighter day.

Whatever it takes
Now before it is too late,
One little step by each, then a giant leap by all
That might improve the world for one, or all.

These rhymes propose a new holiday.
A new national day, call it what you may,
Perhaps Pay-It-Forward Day.
No, let’s say “Good Day!"

A day recognized as a time to remind,
A new day when all of goodwill,
If they can, if they will,
Do one thing for the good.

For a friend, or
Even for a foe,
For family, or
For a stranger you do not know.

A day set aside
Dedicated to making one small thing better,
Lifting one person higher,
Together, many higher and higher.

An extra, kind gesture unplanned,
Whatever you feel you should,
A kind word, maybe something grand,
An unexpected act of good.

Now is the time.
We do not really know
If we have one day more.
Now is the time for a Good Day!

Father's Reason

1
It's sad, the fad, to genderize Our Maker:
Amazons aside, History made men Movers, Shakers
But is it dad's fault, the sin of God? 

2.
I will trust the Jesus account; He showed "Abba"
The Father whom He enjoyed communion with!
But before Jesus, Jews whispered YHWH

3.
Don't take it for granted; Matthew 6: Jesus's prayer
"Our Father in Heaven," not Mine alone, the Saviour
Wants equality and "siblings." Please read John 15

NOTE: Before Jesus walked this Earth and taught, Judaism taught God's name was so sacred, one could use only THE TETRAGRAMMATON or the 4 letters YHWH, to designate Him. Jesus called God not majestic judge Jehovah, but ABBA, or "daddy" in Hebrew and left us The Lord's prayer, beginning "Our Father."

Never To Old For the Sandman

Never To Old For The Sandman!

Ah...respite relished sleeping like a baby,
variations on theme I iterate
impossible to stave of sleepiness,
nor advantageous to struggle against weight
of heavy eyelids akin 
to bajillion tons of freight

after squeezing out every iota of energy,
whether mental or physical exhaustive state
subsequently pleasurable surrendering
into realm where unpredictable self portrait,
where pleasant dreams await
a personalized vividly dynamic

realm, where consciousness doth abdicate
analogous to A Stop at Willoughby
Season 1; Episode 30 of Twilight zone
May 6, 1960 - Original air date
though evocative images fill mindscape,
I immediately forget conglomerate

sans, illusory wonderful world
potential motherlode, did create
a bittersweet dire straight,
asper this aspiring scrivener
REM recall equals absolute zero
no matter awakening eye designate
natural process this body to facilitate

transitioning to formulate
after juncture of adequate
time ample restoration did satiate
yours truly revelled within tete a tete
among "FAKE" persons mine
unconscious did amazingly, gracefully,
and inexplicably generate.

Solace For Pangs

When you are lost in confusion
With your heart full of depression
When your life is tangled in mess
With your mind marked hopeless
Be aware, God's the giver of gladness 

When you run after clover in fold
And you couldn't latch on it in hold
When all painted over you are scars
Even without the discerning of stars
Be conscious, God is in your mind.

When you sight your home & espy nothingness
And your connected blood are designate aimless
When you long for for an abode spruce up of rest
When the bodies in sight breathe a zest of a pest
Be apprise, God is your matchless healer of pains

When you behold your portrayal in richness
But your assets are painted in emptiness
When your bones are fashioned powerless
Don't be melt away in the ache hopelessness
Be informed, God is the giver of bountifulness

New Resolution

C-reate a new resolution, 
R-earrange the wrong way; 
I-dentify the truth from lies, 
S-ay hello to new year's day. 

Q-uietly write a new resolution, 
U-nspoken promise is louder; 
O-pen your life to holiness, 
M-ake a vow to the Father. 
E-arly December twenty-third, 
D-o choose the right decision; 
E-ight more days designate 
Z-one of new resolution.

The Color White

The Color White
To ponder on the color chart
What colors dominate our life
Alas, the shades of black and white
may only favor day and night
The color black is very dark
devoid of character and traits
But white is space so infinite
To designate a peoples race
And adjectives so positive 
awaiting colors to arrive

A brave new world should document
Ethnicity from life to death
A revolution oe’r the years
What colors entered to discern
contribute more so we can learn
And contribute to our earth
In many countries of our globe
And tribes become diversified
No monarchy to ply our genes
As animals are bred to match
The wonders of Ethnicity
Of customs, cultures and a dream
To love a world of day and night
The difference is a pure delight

my grand children share those genes along with India 
and Puerto Rico)
