NIGERIA IS BLEEDING

Nigeria is bleeding 
From the incompetence 
Of our leaders 
Speak up and they'll come for you 
But can't go after or come for terrorist 
Farmers can't go to farm 
Traveling by road in now deadly 
Going to church or school 
Is now at your own risk.

Nigeria is bleeding 
And our leaders are silent 
Amidst the shedding 
Of innocent blood 
Cry for justice everywhere 
But ignorance our leaders practice
They always keep us in the dark 
Empowering fear and lack 
Just to make the people slack and wack.

Nigeria is bleeding 
From inflation and more 
Insecurity everywhere 
While the leaders are secured 
The nation is starving 
From peace and unity 
Due to tribalism 
The nation is dysfunctional 
How would its inhabitants function now?

Expired Uses

Removal of the orient gleam of
an ephemeral existence.

The Constrict persistent,
a secure suffocation.

To suffer in gasping provocation.
Null proclimation, writhe.

Grade A exasperation,
desperate for lung expansion.

Consumed by a jaw unhinged
and sealed in
scale-tight enzyme digestion.

Allowed self-doubt to
let myself 
down,
this road
I
led myself 
down.
Inhale freshwater,
I
held myself
down.

Becoming a defenseless lure,
helpless and approachable.

Grace never held her hand out.
Regrettable rational, internal dialogue
soured by stupidity.

Remedial action, to focus on discrepancies.

Mocked by the laughing flatulence expulsion.
Giggles to self as motor function falters.

Off to nowhere, cease feeling weather.
A headless chicken or lamb to slaughter?
We brought ourselves out here.
Neanderthal deliverance service.
Severed head, served on a bedrock platter,

apple-gagged,

toothless banter.

The Function Of All Beauty

Anything, flower or face
Glass-domed, or that behind
If as icon, mired;
Or what of it, Beauty, book-kept
If as tale inspired

Once focused on, is brought to light 
This core, divine, in us;
Longingly pulsates.
Thenceforth nothing but Heaven's
Aspiring to sates.

Premium Member The Function of Each Body Part

Cheeks were meant for kissing
Hands were meant for holding
Ears were meant for listening
Arms were meant for enfolding

Eyes were meant for ogling
Mouths were meant for stuffing
Hair was meant for brushing
Cheeks were meant for blushing

Minds were for manipulating
Knees were meant for kneeling
Bums were meant for bumming around
Thoughts for disagreeing

Feet were meant for walking
Palms were for reading the future
Toes were meant for counting
Common sense is for avoiding bloopers

Tongues were meant for wagging
Sores were meant for rubbing
Eyebrows were meant for raising
But hearts my very very good friends

Hearts were meant for loving

Premium Member Family Function

Does politeness in your family well up like
a seed in jagged rocks in the tundra night?
Do manners brew in the black cauldron
with garlic, onions and eye of newt?
Does your family season its conversation with
gallons of salt, while forgetting to add sugar?
Would you rather season your conversation
with extra hot ghost pepper sauce?
Does your family function like a Mentos 
that has been stuck inside a bottle full of Coke?
Or maybe your family function is like
vinegar and baking soda mixed in a blender?
If that is your family welcome to broken,
welcome to the ashes, and the dawning of a traumatic normal.

Gain of function?
Fauci says its fiction
So without hesitation
I embrace salvation

First shot

Government mistrust
Big pharma bloodlust 
Yet in science I trust
Take the vaccine I must

Second shot

Another jab I allow
Side effects follow 
Vaccine in me I know
Makes my blood glow

Third shot

Again they stab my vein
I endure a lancing pain
As clots invade my brain
God I invoke but in vain

Fourth shot

Am I being foolish?
Swimming in a Petri dish
My free will I relinquish
One more dose to finish

Fifth shot

Now and forever
I am a cadaver

Premium Member Silence

Too much turmoils
Make me fatique
Too much chaos
Make me deaf
Too much tragedies
Make me blind
My mind jammed
My heart broken
I have nothing to say anymore
Years after years hazards come and go and return
Silence is the only word on my lips
The fan blades turn and turn
No noise but efficient
Noisy fan means old and not functioning well
But my silence means loss, helpless and confused
God's silence means we're seriously handicapped
God's words are spread in all nature
With philosophical signs
To be interpreted by man himself
Silence always speaks the loudest voice
To man's heart only
With no heart attacks of course
A heart can be put in a battery to make it function again
How about a stonely heart with God's words
Maybe,maybe...

Song and God As Singer - I Mean

I
If each of us is a song
We are not physical
If God sings us into life
We are resurrected beings -
Not physical either

II
You have believed when I talked 'wave'
And 'ocean'
It is the ocean that sings
Waves into existence, rides along
The entire ocean does the 'wave' thing -
Right?
So, too, God experiences through us:
Song, celestial vehicle, or waves
We merge into God, or return to One
Unity in Diversity

III
Appearances are not always accurate about inner reality
quantum mechanics admits it doesn't know a WAVE, or why photons think, decide --
That 'possibilities' are real, physicality not!
You and I are POSSIBILITIES

Premium Member The Brain--Your Personal Computer

The brain is an incredibly efficient computer
Compressing trillions of bytes of information,
Registering every impression we encounter,
Analyzing concepts from formation to causation.

Compressing trillions of bytes of information
In milliseconds without hesitation, unrelentingly,
Analyzing concepts from formation to causation
Remarkably, it even functions unconsciously.

In milliseconds without hesitation, unrelentingly,
It processes the continual intake of our senses
Remarkably, it even functions unconsciously,
Outlining proposals, formulating our defenses.

It processes the continual intake of our senses,
All while regulating our involuntary responses
Outlines our proposals, formulates our defenses
Even evaluating the most complicated nuances.

All while regulating our involuntary responses
Registering every impression we encounter,
Even evaluating the most complicated nuances
The brain is an incredibly efficient computer.

Engines

We are engines
             not autonomous,
             we need for
             safe driving
              two engines....
              mine and yours..
              My dear !
              That's how we work. !

Premium Member Neurons Fire At Will

The void beneath the synaptic cleft
Place of precision warp and weft
Neurons are space ships fired at will
With dying breath then they still

Billions of neurons drive my brain
Trying to understand~it is in vain
Neurons are sparking as I contemplate
What next to write then I vacillate.

Second by second day after day 
Neurons are friends as I wend my way
Different at night when deeply asleep
Neurons fire backward ~ we are unique.


Warp and Weft:
The art of weaving is a subtle metaphor for understanding the workings of the universe and our place in it.

"See for yourself"

It is obvious that -if  only- we were to list the functions of the eyes,
we would need a lot of time to get to see.

Fulfill Your Function

C-hoose to fulfill your function, 
E-ven though it's difficult; 
L-et your performance be fine, 
E-radicating your life's fault.
S-imply fulfill your function, 
T-o show your trust and love; 
E-liminate the negligence, giving glory to the Father above.

F-aithfully fulfill your function, 
E-arly eighth of February; 
D-on't let your fervor fade, 
E-arnestly please the Almighty.
R-emain firm and steadfast, 
E-agerly wait for salvation; 
S-tay blazing and fervent, fulfill your function.

The Function Pow of X To the Y

pow(x,y)

You can create a function to relate
the value of x raised to power y.
One clever way to exponentiate
is to repeat a simple multiply.

If y is zero, just return a one—
for ev’ry number, that will be the case.
And when y equals one, your work is done—
the answer will be x, your starting base.

For ev’ry other value y can be,
just multiply by x, recursively.
