Premium Member Let's Be Human

Let’s be human
Let’s be men and women
Let’s be humane
Let’s be absolutely sane
Let’s not be black
Let’s not be white
Let’s be just, fair and right
Let’s go back
Let’s return to Alkebulan
So all can head to Heaven
Let’s go back to the Garden of Eden
Yes, to the mother of men and women
Let’s stop being stupid, ignorant and greedy
Let’s stop playing the evil comedy
Weak people talk about war
Strong people talk about unity
Let’s go deep. Let’s go far
Far away from nonsense and disparity
Color exists simply for identity
That’s it. The sky is not the limit
Let’s go beyond, beyond the furthest comet
Nobody really knows where the truth lies
Open our ears wide and our eyes
Listen, listen
Please listen
Let’s be human
Let’s be men and women
Let’s be humane
Let’s be absolutely sane.

Comet Trail

If you could have one
               wish granted, wanted to be:
               A comet trail ...
               To erase what is ugly
               of the land, and that would carry us
               only beauty ...
               That would disappear with hatred,
               to brighten the days
               with tenderness,
               to pour into the world
               Perfumes,
               that would blow from us all
               the sadness,
              that simply spread
              the joyfulness...
              A divine comet trail
              to lead us on the paths
              to guide us joy  and bliss ...!

Thee Grim Reaper As Pedagogical Savior De Jour

written just a couple weeks before the lease at prior abode would expire, and no affordable habitat....just by happenstance and a thankful invisible hand of destiny.

To avoid the pitfall of prospective homelessness
which near future prospect 
   induces existential angst i confess.

Today, i wanna die and bid god riddance grandly 
   going gamesomely gra grave, 
   de deum, and cymbal crash
to Bing mulct emotionally, physically and spiritually - 
   all the grinding hardships would be gone in a flash
how tempting to seek a solution sans hemlock 
   or other deadly potion, 

   whereby toothless mouth need not gnash
boot simply swallow and drink from the goblet of 
   mortal freedoms renting psych ass under 
   with purposelessness mine hash
tag, which bout with suicide 
   while n the edge of thirteen - 

   Anorexia nervosa defeated - 
   then as now experience 
   10,000 banshee maniacs whip lash
lacerating, flagellating, 
   and repeatedly rousing thoughts 
   shin to circle back to why 
   death be not proud when life on par with a mash
up of ennui, futile gobbledygook housing incubus 

   analogous luft Waffe bombardiers quash
the joie de vivre per je ne sais quois spritely spring 
   in step happy jollity, 
   and levity attempt to make light 
   of psychological me's mental illness rash
whence thru the lvii roam min years 

   as chief garbage taster of trash
hurled my way gnome matter 
   gremlins dwelt within the Wabash 
distance to inflict din er of dissonance 
   targeted this mortal for'er abash
as soon as he got expelled from the womb, 
   his reddened ears did bash

from sonic screaming boom causing astir the nurses 
   into the maternity ward of me late mum sped like dash
her, and fast as a comet Prancer doth emulate 
   a con vixen dancer, cuz ova this rude half 
   re: that came a boot 
   from genetic chromosomal DNA wash.

Premium Member View From the Second Comet - Act 2

At Cape Canaveral
Working for CNN
Carolyn Devonshire
With a news bulletin
 
    In less than three days
    The second comet will hit home
    All the worlds governments are working
    To halt it's destructive roam
 
    Here at NASA
    They are preparing a shuttle
    To carry a weapon
    Deadly but subtle
 
    Scientists from Russia
    China and Japan
    Are working together
    To save our lands
 
    Inside these hangers
    A mission is planned
    To arm a shuttle
    Electronically manned
 
    Aboard it will carry
    A weapon of power
    Once it strikes home
    We await the meteorite shower
 
In the NASA control room
The count down begins
Our world as we know it
Under three days from its end
 
The engines roar
As the rocket zests
Inside the shuttle
Is a cargo that's blessed
 
As it hits Mach 23
It disappears from our view
Beyond our world
A mission so true
 
With the comet in sight
The shuttles doors now agape
Releasing a small craft
With flags of the world, proudly draped
 
The shuttle that's followed
This comet of death
Captures the moment
Man left it reft
 
A craft coloured gold
Approaches at speed
Reaches the comet
Blessed by all creeds
 
A blinding light
As bright as the sun
Destroys the comet
As the meteorites run
 
The second shuttle
Is peppered like earth
But she makes it home
Her witness, well worth
 
On CNN
Footage is shown
The death of a comet
In obliteration blown
 
How many more
Are lurking out there
As we await their entrance
We stand together, and beware

A Historic Event

The year was sixteen-sixty-four
A comet crossed the sky,
And Londoners looked on in fear
Convinced the end was nigh.

The streets which once were paved with gold
Were now awash with waste.
A swarm of flies and scourge of rats
Foretold the death they faced.

And so it was that London town
Was struck down by the plague,
And corpse on corpse, wife, husband,child,
Were taken to their grave.

Deep in the dales of Derbyshire
A peaceful village lay,
Until a bale of cloth arrived
That inauspicious day.

A bale of flea-infested cloth
Hung by the hearth to dry,
Which stirred the soporific fleas
And roused the plague thereby.

The tailor's poor assistant died
A death of searing pain,
And pestilence intensified
Its unrelenting reign.

As many planned to leave their homes
The vicar intervened
Declaring that instead of flight
They should be quarantined.

'Dear flock of Eyam, sacrifice
Not self must be our plan,
For once enclosed we'll suffer but
Set free our fellow man.'

Within the space of just one month
So many perished there.
The smell of sadness and of death
Ingrained the putrid air.

The years have passed,the plague long gone
But graves still tell the tale
Of how their sacrifice and strength
Meant others could prevail.

NOTE:

On 1 November 1666 farm worker Abraham Morten gasped his final breath - the last of 260 people to die from bubonic plague in the remote Derbyshire village of Eyam. Their fate had been sealed four months earlier when, after the onset of the plague from flea-infested cloth from London, the entire village made the remarkable decision to quarantine itself in an heroic attempt to halt the spread of the Great Plague.

Premium Member Throw Me a Bone

Supernova over Bethlehem,
a heavenly surprise,
What did the magi see,
when they gazed the sky,
Comet with bright tail, 
one reasonable assumption,
My least favorite, 
a planetary conjunction,

Truth be told, 
we’ll probably never know,
I can’t help but ponder, 
these cosmic shows,
Bearing in mind,
the significance for some,
Pointed to their savior, 
all omnipotent one,

Who am I to deny, 
having found so few answers,
Does not mean I’m running 
a wheel with hamsters,
Questions, questions, writes
the story to my life,
Wise men l’m behind you, 
just a parsec to the right.

Premium Member Pursuing the Comet

I glimpsed it one night floundering in dark,
still young of age, beset by whirls of doubt.
Not knowing on what journey to embark,
inside my gloom, I prayed to be pulled out.

How radiant and rare it seemed to me,
appearing like a comet, light to show.
I set my gaze on it that I might see
the way it blazed where I was meant to go.

Pursuing it, I left abashment’s edge
and followed to where flowers softly swayed
and scent of lilac wafted from a hedge.
Such welcome realm where soothing music played!

This scene, though dreamed, revealed to me in youth
serenity is found in seeking truth.

Premium Member Duality

Euphoria, the Big Bang’s spark
Euphoria, the core of our sun
Euphoria, the nucleus of a quark
Euphoria, brings an illusion of fun

Ecstasy, the animal within 
Ecstasy, when venting it out 
Ecstasy, an o rgasm of sin
Ecstasy, being a drug of no doubt 

Rhapsody, the seed of emotion 
Rhapsody, a subliminal song 
Rhapsody, not blind devotion 
Rhapsody, believes nothing’s wrong 

Nirvana, in heavenly oblivion 
Nirvana, in a utopian land
Nirvana, the Atlantis Olympian
Nirvana, became my favourite band

Inertia, ignoring public opinion 
Inertia, when two ends are joined 
Inertia, the prayer of minions
Inertia, from a kick in the groin

Nausea, an earth destroying comet
Nausea, losing all that we stake 
Nausea, is the truth lets be honest 
Nausea, because you think I’m a fake

Premium Member Chrysalis

CHRYSALIS


Sitting in silent reverence 
I gaze upward towards your galaxy...
The endless canopy stretched out
Before all eyes...
An infinite splendor of 
Light, energy, portals, stars
Mysterious unknown spaces

Silent notes fill my soul
Playing my heartstrings
Reminding me of ancient memories 
Memories of...
Our journey together

Inside the chrysalis
I embrace you...
Growing together 
Intertwined in color and form and design
We breathe as one
We expand and sprout into life
Preparing to fly

Birthing at the same moment
I reach my moist orange wing
Out into the calling air
As my outer shell falls away
Your wings move slowly 
Drying in the breeze

Twins we are
Twin butterflies embarking on 
Our journey upward
Rising and turning we ride
The warm air funnels
In joy and delight
We laugh in our own language
As moondust beckons us further

We melt into darkness
In an instant light is eclipsed
I can only see the glow 
Of your eyes
Color is absent

Glow...Glitter...Reflection...Shine
Orbs of light and time above us
Blue Black transparent silk
With a million pinholes of light
Shining through

A nod to the Creator
How grand you are
How magnificent
Everything as it is...
Perfect intention and magnitude
With alignment of essence

To swim in the stars
To dive into the Milky Way
To ride a comet until its
Last breath of light dies

There is no greater gift
My heart sings and rejoices
For the consciousness of 
This moment in time

Looking down on Mother Earth 
I see her and I love her
I see her Creator hold her gently
Glittering webs of tears and light
Connect us

Galaxy and stars and earth...
We pulse together
We exhale together 
We bleed together 
We are one
