Estimation Poems

To Me or Not to Me

How would I define "me", and am I one, or two, or three?
Well, let me see.
I exhibit lots of behaviors and have many feelings and thoughts.
I hope I don't get tied in knots.
If you take all those things and then say that's the thing I am,
you might be onto something ma'am,
but when you lump items into one and generalize,
you lose something in my eyes, 
and possibly introduce harmful prejudice, 
or go otherwise amiss.
How I act or what I think or feel, such as when you're near,
needn't necessarily adhere
to any kind of self-definition or formulation.
In my humble estimation, 
while I'm a hundred-thousand-million things, or so,
to call them "me" isn't useful though.
The things I am today, when a definition is obtained,
will change, and tomorrow will be in vain.
Turning my attention to another concept, I'll ponder infinity.  
I guess I have no use for "me".

The Vanity of Youth

The vanity of youth is at it’s height 
when its weight is carried light.
It’s an accidental manifestation
of another’s envious estimation.
It’s lasting value, less than a mirage,
disappears with bitterness into old age.
To those who took the lie for truth
when told in their vanity of youth
must now in beauty’s absence live
a lie impossible to forget or forgive.

Truth Bared

I stood in front of the mirror
As naked as could be
The goal was to make an estimation of me
I saw eyes
That overlooked truth for lies
In order to prepare a drink
For lips
That greedily sipped
To strengthen breasts
That harbored contention
To energize feet
That blindly followed the path of dissension

I stood in the front of the mirror
After scrubbing vigorously
The goal was to make an estimation of me
I saw a face
That was searching for forgiveness and grace
To be prepared with strength
So as to cleanse a heart
That had been ripped apart
In order to open a soul
That held the key
To unlock a truth
That launched real freedom and beauty

Which Vic?

Which Vic are you, in your estimation?
Are you Victor or Victim in your meditations?

Are you Victim because of your circumstances
Or Victor who lives to exploit second chances?

Are you Victim because your health is failing
Or Victor to fight with faith prevailing?

Are you Victim when wealth has made itself wings
Or Victor in hard work, building new things?

Are you Victim in love, afraid and alone
Or Victor to go and give out your own (love)?

Are you Victim in mental distress or depression
Or Victor in prayer and intersession?

The two words begin with the same three letters
One leads to freedom, the other to fetters.

They're breaking; bad'

I saw a stage..Maybe you did to?  Where two strong men met
My estimation grew..' I felt of hope; relief..' Maybe?
An opening to grow.? Of an accord so many used to know.'
The chance to build in hope and trust.? What is to loose?
This is surely a must.! I stand and applaud the accord
On show.! Oh just by the way to (R F K and Donald!)
WOW..Way to go..)

Husband and Hubbard

l ron hubbard, aimed amiss at  Coronado islands.soon captain no longer, relieved of command' Also Husband E Kimmel
For Pearl. Had to carry the can! From fiasco to disaster.'
Either didn't really plan' one trained  'guns willy nilly'
The other got caught' with terrible life tolls' all ships trapped
In port! So retribution was given (under maritime law) as I
Understand things? Anything else would be poor.' So what
Of the actions.? Of commanders in chief.? Should they
Endanger their charges, and their country in breif' can there be
No reprecussions? No treasonous charge? In my estimation i find (such a proposition) too hard' to hard for
Comprehension 'specially should there be willfull intent' in
Knowing of disaster yet never to relent.! I have heard so
Much of the gravitas of Admiralty law! Part of the base of
The governance for co-hesion and so much more.' If you're
Prime minister or even President grand' can you carry out crime withought compunction
Let treason be planned.? denigrate your own citizens? And
Care not one bit.' Cause murder and destruction yet think
You will not pay; not one whit..!

Attention of the Center

I want to be God 
Just as I was meant 
I wanna be loved
In and out of the tent 
I want to be praised 
All throughout the world
Want to be adored
By the loveliest girl 
And just as the world 
Will come to its end,
I want it to be said,
“He was better than men.”

I want to be God 
The kind in the book 
You’ve perused His name
You’ve heard how it took 
I want to go back 
To 1247 
‘Cause in my estimation, 
That was close to Heaven
But Heaven exists 
On the top of a pearl
Let’s abandon this thing —
Let’s give it a whirl —

I want to be God 
The instiller of fear 
Oh won’t that be sweet 
To be held so dear 
So deep in the pavement 
Beneath human feet 
The killer of traffic 
The idol of meek 
I’ll creep and I’ll crawl 
Like a certain snake 
There’ll be no limit 
To the abuse I can take

So God is a question 
And God is a snack
God sits on a throne 
In a Missouri shack 
God does his business 
And wipes with his hands
The squalor of reason 
Is what God understands 
You’ll see the difference 
All throughout the land: 
The inglorious servant 
Will one day gain command

It Is Tonight

It is tonight
I and my best friend decided
We shall make things right
We can't love each other and be divided
And for all I might
I shall say it and be delighted

What shall be said shall be said
By the sayer
and what shall be heard shall be heard
By the hearer
We cannot hold it till we're dead
Says the sayer

Tonight we go for a walk
To no destination
And as we walk we talk
To no estimation
And all shall be said in bulk
So we make the decision

But remember
Not December
It is tonight!!

Self-Worth

Self-worth comes at immense cost,
But its true value is beyond compare.
So easy it is to simply become lost
In recriminations and treatment unfair.
Yet individual worth, inner estimation,
Crucial this is to guarantee personal peace.
Detractors strive to label you an abomination,
Undermine your belief; grant you no release
From their torment… but stay the course!
Never allow anybody to shackle your potential.
Resolve firmly from them yourself to divorce.
Elect those you share things with confidential.
If you fail to value the miracle that you are,
You shall forever feel inadequate, under par.

He Qualifies the Called

Simon Peter was a lonely fisherman 
Craving for success
In the only vocation he knew 
But delay bugged him down
Disappointment dogged his every step
Then stepped in the savior of his soul 
And massive breakthrough 
Followed the failed fisherman 
As  Jesus put an end to his past
And gave birth to his future
As  a fisher of men
Jesus did not consult his past 
To give him the future destined for him
Jesus  did not worry about
His theological background 
He rather looked at his heart
And found him ready and available 
Listen when He calls
And make yourself available 
For He uses broken things
By man’s estimation
And qualifies them to work in His vineyard!

The 10 Magical Digits

From the 10 digits 0 to 9
Numerous numbers are formed
Showing man's talent in calculation
These digits and numbers
Are then being widely used in
Gambling
Wealth estimation
Time calculation
Science and Mathematics
Leading to civilization and greed
But finally greed dominates civilization
And rules man's heart and soul
Making him a slave of 
Merely 10 small and insignificant digits

Reveille

When the sum of all
equation meets
The gist of
all that's true

What will be
The estimation
As we stand
both me and you

Will we stand
Upright at inspection
Will we gaze upon
The ground

Soaring as with
Eagles or
With fleshly things
Resound

May our eyes
be bright far
Seeing may our
hearts be as a child's

Filled with light
And wonder
As we
Navigate these wilds

Ages

Ages 
 When I was young my youth lasted a long time.
When someone said next year, it sounded as it was forever.
I remember the long summers 
but realize it is the sum of many summers.
Since in our estimation summer lasted long into autumn 
and mild winter. 
The real cold season lasted a month, and since
We didn´t sit still it didn´t feel so cold.
Now that I`m old the seasons whirl faster and faster rapid
I get dizzy and have to sit down or hold on to my cane. 
the tremendous speed is accelerating towards doom and the hope
of another spring.

Ecological Paths

EcoPolyPaths:

Avenues for restoring stressed
traumatized PolyVillage EcoCulture
and
marginalized Regenerative EarthJustice

Usually inter-religiously inspired by asking

What would I/We look
sound
green taste
smell
touch
feel like
making win/win healthy and safe co-passion
with this
sacred holistic room
yard
forest
desert
body of water
state of trans-national soil
mountain
river
home
family
tribe 
species
relationship?

Within this severed win/lose,
yet potential win/win,
integral
inviting
next situation.

I Love You Mom

One day I was fresh and new and all the world was brand new too.
All the world was fresh and new and mostly all I knew was you. 
You were warm and I was small and you were strong and oh so tall,
And I would always lean on you and you’d be there and this I knew. 

The next day I was taller, stronger, in my estimation, wiser,
Suddenly than you I knew much better and had knowledge wider,
You could never understand, or so I thought, my thoughts and plans,
You could never see my view or know what I was going through.
I forgot that you were once a growing, learning, child too. 

The last day came and you were gone, it came so fast and seemed so long.
I never knew how much I grew, how much I knew because of you. 
I never though I’d see the day when I don’t have you here to say, trust the Lord with all your heart and read His word and never part. 
God gave me you to love, and still,
I love you mom, and always will.
