Idea of nullity, gives you fixity,
Prayer to the Almighty, gives life utility,
Love simplicity, gain multiplicity,
Accept relativity, attain normality,
Avoid formality, attain regularity,
With good activity, attain reliability,
With a purity, show sufficient sanity,
Love and affection should be of utmost priority,
Exploit every opportunity, you have enormous ability,
Understand the profit of integrity,
Feel blessed with touch of divinity,
Remove all sorts of negativity,
Add all kinds of positivity,
Life becomes free from attrocity,
And attain utmost supremacy,
With immortal legacy,
If one accepts the supreme authority.

Resolutions Poetry
Related meanings I have to firmly determine myself
Everyone lies to themselves resolvere, "to loosen, undo, settle."
Stick-to-it-iveness pertinaciousness we find ourselves in abated promises
O bstinacy my power over myself obduracy obdurateness fosters my grit
Loyal testiments truths stout-heartedness
Unified in boldness steadfastness dedication commitment in awe
Tenacity, tenacity, tenacity strong-mindedness constancy
Intension intentness fixity of purpose when we change our minds
Openly staying power spiritedness strength of character
No one tries hard as us purposefulness resolute yearly onslaughts
So we all promise to do better

We stand in voiceless fixity and gaze
Upon veined stone carved of silent faces
He seems but weightless in lamented arms
But oh! Their grief too heavy to bear
For see how even ourselves are shown as living
Only by each gasping breath we take
And out of the chill of marbled sorrow
Not a stir is heard
Let us stand long with eyes wide to remember
How precarious our world
While so carefully they cradle Him
Speak of it, we cannot
Far more wise
To stand in voiceless fixity and see
How fragile our world is spinning
Dizzily into emptiness, if be not changeable..
For earth and we must alter.
What has been witnessed here in polished stone
Has made the air too thin to speak these words....
"He died upon the cross"

Inspired by Michelangelo's Statue..."The Deposition"
This is the city where
I found,
the fixity of
synthesis.
These are the streets
that pace,
fames the course
of imminence.
This is the city where
I lost,
the tangibility
of surface...
...This is the where
I am to be found,
and found to be
lost.
